Re: [MeeGo-dev] Added wayland packages to MeeGo
Yes. The next step for package work is to add Qt/wayland. And with a demo written with Qt is better. Thanks for the information, I will study how to build Qt-lighthouse first. I have no plan to build it for ARM platform. Maybe I will try to do it once I got an amlogic-8726 board. The repo devel:wayland is created. The packages will be put there soon.

What I'm working on now is to try to move over the tablet UX, bit by bit. I've just started, but the plan is use Qt lighthouse and the QML scenegraph. I'm using the qtquick2-integration branch of the Qt lighthouse repo: git://gitorious.org/+qt-developers/qt/lighthouse.git and the plan is to make meego-ux-daemon the compositor and display server, so the idea is that we can drop X and mcompositor and just fold the compositing functionality into meego-ux-daemon. meego-ux-daemon will use something like the EGL fullscreen lighthouse plugin and evdev input to run directly on KMS. For the clients, we'll have to port meego-qml-launcher to Qt lighthouse and QML scenegraph as well, but the launcher will use the Wayland lighthouse plugin to run as a Wayland client. We'll have to define a MeeGo Tablet UX specific Wayland extension, to replace the ad-hoc use of EWMH in mcompositor and clients. Later on we can look into how to handle classic (non-QML) Qt applications and eventually legacy X clients. Anyway, that's the hand-wavey plan. I expect I'll fork the meego tablet ux repos in question on gitorious once I have something that kinda works. But from a packaging point of view the next step is to figure out how we can package the qtquick2-integration branch of Qt and add it to the Wayland repo.

Hardware enabling is something that has recently come together pretty well. I just post a bit of documentation about the couple of things that Wayland needs here (scroll to the end): http://wayland.freedesktop.org/architecture.html It's still a bit open-ended with respect to how to bring up the compositor on the hardware, but that's technically not Wayland specific, it's something that each EGL stack solves in different, vendor specific ways.

I think there's many people and companies interested in this area - maybe we should propose a devel:wayland project in the MeeGo OBS? It is after all one of the important directions for MeeGo. I guess one of the steps would also be to have Qt Lighthouse packages there, enabled for Wayland? I'd be interested in ARM builds of the packages as well, to experiment early on on those platforms (probably similar challenges as with PVR in Intel devices).

[MeeGo-dev] Added wayland packages to MeeGo
Hello, April fools' day. You can try wayland with MeeGo in console mode now. After login in via console, just type "wayland-test", then you can try other wayland apps from wayland-terminal.
