Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
i tried to use kmag on gnome3
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
openned kmag; tried cursor mode and window mode;
moved cursor around every windows
* What was the outcome of this action?
kmag shows a grey square in a black background.
kmag achieves to show its own Window title bar. But any window
content is rendered as noised/unintelligile black and grey.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Either Same behavior that occur on a standard Xorg window manager.
(Kmag do the job)

unfortunately it is working as intended, since wayland doesn't allow every
process to access every other process.
