By default root and other users can't access active wayland desktop. Ok. I've added my restricted users to the same group and now able to run programs under their profiles on wayland display natively. Chrome and firefox weren't ported to wayland yet but in the nearest future they should run under it. It seems that root is banned explicitly otherwise it will be able to do so already. Millions of users use xhost +si:... as an odd but default step of installation procedure, and it really makes their systems insecure. This caprice to limit Gtk from running under root doesn't make world safer but on contrary led to the very opposite result, but this is the subject of the other bug reports so I am out of here.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
