#swaywm

3 posts2 participants0 posts today
Anyone else running a #Wayland WM under #Wlroots and it freezes your computer to the point that nothing works not even switching TTY ? I thought it was #RiverWM related but it happens with #SwayWM too. If I don't start a Wayland session my computer is fine all day. But under Wayland I'm starting to get these random freezes like twice a day and the only cure is to hold the power button. I mean I'm tempted to revert back to X11 for stability so any info or ideas would be gratefully received. Oh and I'm running #FreeBSD too.

I am a happy #SwayWM user. However, I need to give a lot of presentations; therefore, the lack of screen mirroring is a bit problematic when I want to show demonstrations. However, I wrote a tiny #Python script that runs wl-present automatically and moves it to the external output. That works fine for me, and maybe it is useful to others as well. gist.github.com/cit/902c6245b4
