Bug ID: 42284 Summary: Enable using Wine with Wayland and without X on Linux Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: shtetldik@gmail.com Distribution: ---
Currently, Wine on Linux is strongly dependent on X, and when used with the desktop environment with new Wayland display server, Wine is forced to run through XWayland, which so far remains a poor experience.
The whole Linux desktop is now strongly pushing the switch from X to Wayland, and many major applications are now in the process of enabling this switch.
Is there some plan for such effort in Wine? Is it even feasible? I couldn't find any bugs opened for it, so I'm opening one here to track this.
