it takes a while for the university infra to process it
<ivyl>
separate talk uploads will take a bit longer
<f_>
ivyl: cool, thank you!
<f_>
I'll wait then :)

i was talking with emersion and he got me thinking: why do we need xwayland to provide the root window? why not provide it ourselves
<Ariadne>
i’m going to prototype this, but it might solve the display topology issue
<f_|cat>
sounds good!
<handlerug>
so you’re going to run xwayland rootless?

But we would still need *some* plumbing for display management
<f_>
At least for actually managing monitors and whatnot
<dramforever[m]>
still rootful definitely, but maybe more like a "become the xwayland"

<Ariadne> i was talking with emersion and he got me thinking: why do we need xwayland to provide the root window? why not provide it ourselves
<ConanKudo[m]1>
that makes sense... my Xweston prototype worked that way
<ConanKudo[m]1>
the issue is that rootless Xwayland makes xrandr read-only
<ConanKudo[m]1>
for Xweston that's annoying because there's no runtime interface for output topology
<ConanKudo[m]1>
but we could hook up wlr-output-management or our own thing
<f_>
ConanKudo[m]1: I think "fixing" that could work
<f_>
oh yeah you said it
