How did you install Wayfire? Which version are you using?
Install XWayland with pacman and it should work. It isn't a dependency of the arch package for whatever reason
It says you have a stale lock file, might want to remove it or reboot.
I installed xorg-server-xwayland with pacman. And it don't works
My steps from downloading to error:
Is the XWayland
command in your PATH?
Can you post the latest errors?
Another thing to try would be installing the sway package and checking whether sway works (so that we are sure this is a problem in Wayfire), and not some system-setup oddity.
So, this is my idea and i'm going to implement it
Good?
Can you post the latest errors?

Try rootston or sway like @ammen99 suggested and see if there isn't some generic problem not specific to wayfire.
I tried sway and it works:
And then wayfire:
Both based on wlroots, but wayfire is not working
It looks like XWayland is messed up because of Manjaro on this machine (Notice that it is linked against the wrong glibc. That's just next level genius right there)
Does Wayfire open if XWayland fails to start?
I am not really sure whether Wayfire handles Xwayland startup failures correctly. Anyway, you can try either fixing the problem with Xwayland(the error about glibc), or you can try disabling Xwayland support in Wayfire at compile time (there is a configuration option which was implemented very recently)

But where i can find configuration file with disable xwayland
option?
Thank you! But it still not working, Xwayland is not to blame. Black screen and errors in terminal are the same as with xwayland. It cannot find my eglstream capable device.
Running without sudo
I tried to open it in Openbox/x11, same result
You certainly don't need sudo (and it is probable that Wayfire will break in that case).
The last screenshot looks almost fine. Have you installed wf-shell ? It is needed to show a background and a panel, otherwise you get a black screen.
Also, make sure that your ~/.config/wayfire.ini
contains correct paths to wf-background
/wf-panel
, or that they can be found in your $PATH
.
Alternatively, you can try to start an application from X: DISPLAY=garbage WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0 gedit
for example. If it shows up in the Wayfire window, then the problem is indeed the path to wf-panel/wf-background
Thank you for creating so cool and customizable window manager! :) I will try to make it fancy and user-friendly (see concept)
What would be better, modify this project or fork and modify?
I am not exactly sure what your concept was (just a fancy minimize animation? The side dock?).
It would certainly be best not to fork the whole Wayfire. You can write a plugin instead (which can live in a separate repository) or, we can also merge it to the main repo. Ask in IRC if you have questions regarding plugins :)

It will be a fancy minimize animation, new system buttons layout, window translucency api, global menu like in mac, new look and new shell
@FlightBlaze The minimize anim. can be done with a Wayfire plugin. Windows already have the ability to make themselves translucent. The system button layout is defined by the app itself (Wayland tends to use something called client-side-decorations), and if not you can make another Wayfire plugin for custom decorations. A global menu depends on support from the app, and has nothing to do with Wayfire (this will be handled entirely by your shell). As for the shell itself, it should be a separate process (or even multiple) using the layer-shell protocol to tell Wayfire how to interact with them.
Good luck with your project! Feel free to drop in on IRC and ask questions

I mean not just transparent. I want to make api (for using with d-bus) to mark region for blurring. Global menu can be done by patching libgtk and libqt (if these libraries are dynamically linked with apps)

Wayfire is not working on Manjaro Linux KDE. Any ideas?
