The openSUSEWay package does not play good with X Sessions #25

Closed itaranto closed 4 years ago

itaranto commented 4 years ago

I see there are two places in which some Wayland-specific environment variables are set: /etc/sway/env and /usr/lib/environment.d/50-openSUSE.conf.

This breaks some applications if you are using an X-based desktop/WM, in my case I use i3 aside from Sway.

This configuration should be Sway-only, it should not pollute the env vars for every other session.

I would like, but what is the way

I would say maybe openSUSEway is more for the newcomers that just install it from scratch as a first step into the tiling wm. patterns-sway-sway doesn't do this crazy tunes.

I get your point. I appreciate your effort to make it easier to run Sway on openSUSE.

Feel free to close this if you want.

I think the better way is maybe running DE in container, when it doesn't affect any other DEs in the system. So far I have updated the doc: https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:OpenSUSEway to define incompatibility with other DEs.

If ppl want just to try Sway better way is just https://en.opensuse.org/Sway .
