Wayland support? #127

Open sjnewbury opened 2 years ago

sjnewbury commented 2 years ago

With progress being made with the Wine on Wayland: https://www.collabora.com/news-and-blog/blog/2021/12/22/wine-on-wayland-year-end-update-improved-functionality-stability/

Would it be possible to have gallium-nine also support Wayland? It currently works really well for me, I wouldn't want to stop using gallium-nine. This is especially since I use it with a GFX8 AMD and an Ivy Bridge both of which do not currently get the Vulkan love of newer GPUs, but have excellent Gallium support in the case of AMD and a very actively developed Gallium driver in Crocus for Intel.

The mesa side is compatible with Wayland. It needs changes in the wine module and that depends on how they implement Wayland. Likely it will be difficult, but we'll see when that becomes stable.

This is probably not a very useful comment on my end, but it's sad to see Gallium Nine not working with https://gitlab.collabora.com/alf/wine/-/tree/wayland

As you're probably aware wayland support is landing upstream: https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/2712

Perhaps time to look into this? It would be nice to have it supported in time for the official debut release.

I use a custom Proton with integrated gallium-nine support, I've just spent quite a few hours rebasing the Proton wine "fork" onto Wine-Wayland. If it works at all (!) I'll see if I can have a look at what needs to be done to make it work with nine.

Sure, don't hesitate to investigate what needs to be done.

Once a hacked version works, we can always think on how to make it clean.
