Public bug reported: The Firefox testing infrastructure is based on Ubuntu 18.04. In order to enable the Wayland backend by default, we need to also run test on that.
There is one particular bug in Mutter 3.28 that I'd like to see fixed for that, thus requesting a backport of a patch. It's already in the upstream repo, but as 3.28 is not supported upstream any more, I request it here explicitly: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1570 @vanvugt @3v1n0 this would be super helpful for us, I hope I can convince you about that, even if Ubuntu 18.04 doesn't support Wayland officially. It can be tested by running Firefox with `MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1` and setting `widget.wayland_vsync.enabled:1` in the config (soon to be enabled by default). If, after launching Firefox again, everything works as expected - well, then it works. Bonus: the patch also affects a number of other Wayland applications, so some users might be happy to see it as well. ** Affects: mutter (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: wayland ** Tags added: wayland ** Description changed: The Firefox testing infrastructure is based on Ubuntu 18.04.
