Here is a status update on the various blocker and important tasks that we've identified a while ago. primary selection Lyude send a proposed protocol+implementation to the wayland mailing list in December, there was quite a bit of discussion into early January, but no clear consensus on the desired changes to the protocol. Carlos has GTK+/mutter implementations of the proposed protocol. Incomplete :-( input methods The current IBus implementation using D-Bus on the client-side works fine under Wayland. A small problem is that the candidate window is not correctly positioned. Rui has a fix for this problem. The gnome-shell part of the fix is in 3.19.90, the IBus side is supposed to get merged upstream soon too. tablet support The various tabet protocol and support patches have seen many iterations on the wayland mailing list, but haven't landed yet. Incomplete. startup notification Carlos has a minimal implementation gnome-shell and gtk+, adding a new request to the private gtk-shell interface. Incomplete. clipboard proxy for xwayland touch proxy for xwayland These are in place and should work, modulo bugs. remote display Jonas has a workng vnc implementation that is alpha quality. Waiting for damage reporting in pinos and for a pinos release. Other dnd features Pretty much all done. Only missing feature is drop-on-root, which is important for detaching tabs in gnome-terminal and firefox. Should be easy to add though. kinetic scrolling Done. On-screen keyboard Making the on-screen keyboard work requires the text protocol. v2 of this protocol is under discussion on the wayland list. Rui is still planning on getting text protocol support into 3.20. Incomplete. relative/locking pointer confinement Merged this week, will be in 3.19.90. accessibility features Not done.
" I've noticed that in gnome 3.18, orca works quite well in wayland. The only exceptions seem to be that the desktop icons are not drawn (known bug) and that it can occasionally be more memory intensive (gnome-shell) and that it can be slow when selecting multiple icons in nautilus. The one major thing I've seen some discussion on hear is that the gnome devs consider the at-spi socket a major security risk and want a redesign, because it allows anyone or anything to send pretty much anything to it an through it with basically no checking or authenticating done. I'm guessing this isn't in 3.20 since it would require a ton of work, but does anyone know whether this is on the todo for 3.22? If so I can start commenting on the bug or wiki pages, if I can figure out how to leave comments on the wiki. And if not, I can file bugs for this so they're in the system.
Thanks Kendell clark"
output rotation Partially done. Rotation that is implemented in hw / drivers works, but we don't have software fallback. Hw support for rotation is somewhat rare, so: Incomplete. Outputs on secondary GPUs Not done. -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
