Hmmm. For a while now we've had display calibration+profiling applications compel full screen mode so they're not really usable alongside anything else. They are in effect taking over. So if it's possible for the calibration app to set aside the Wayland session, use drm/kms full screen, and then restore the Wayland session I might be OK with it. But if I have to log out, not OK. -- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ wayland-devel mailing list wayland-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/wayland-devel
