Struggling with KVM issues on Wayland? Check out @arfonzo's latest blog to learn about personal challenges with software KVMs, specifically Synergy and keymap problems. Learn how switching back to Xorg resolved these issues for smooth navigation across devices. Check it out!

If you've been having a trouble with Wayland and KVMs on Linux, I published a short article about my solution to this problem earlier today.

TL;DR: ditched Wayland, back to Xorg. 💀

A traveler, an explorer -  and a Viking. I love anime and story-driven games. I code in python and love data.

I am here for the technology.

Yeah I hear you mang. It's kind of ironic, because Xorg was actually way ahead of it's time for decades, in terms of being multi-user capable and handling sessions, etc.. I guess part of the spaghetti code problem you mention is down to that.

But then with Wayland, there's this reversion back to more "standard" single user focus... and some of the more basic stuff still isn't sorted out.

I'd love to run Wayland instead of Xorg, but as it stands it's just not up to scratch (for my purposes).

That's kinda sad staying on Xorg is still so often the solution. I am also on Xorg in a Kubuntu variant, because at least of the blurry fonts and scaling. 

Wen Wayland 😂 perhaps, when it becomes the same mess of old spaghetti as Xorg today? 😂🥲

default ubuntu gnome, not sure if it's ubuntu-specific, but i was used to flameshot which allowed me to annotate screenshots right away... but it's not compatible with wayland

Which screenshot tool? I just use the default one built into gnome3.

i swear i'm gonna switch just cause of that stupid useless screenshot tool... flameshot doesn't work and it drives me crazy
