My OS *does not* include XOrg at all, except for XWayland. Does LightDM have the ability to run the greeter on Wayland without starting XOrg? The documentation doesn't mention the ability to run without X11 (nor does it seem to mention that X11 is required for that matter), and it seems that X is a dependency of LightDM. If LightDM didn't require X, the greeter itself could be a Wayland compositor that LightDM starts and interacts with. Is this supported/planned in any way?</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you,</div><div>Adrian Vovk</div></div></div>
