Found another problem, Ubuntu's modifications to GTK+ are incompatible with Wayland, bug #984914.
I've been tagging things that affect wayland with "wayland": https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs?field.tag=wayland I've been trying to build GTK+ packages with the Wayland backend enabled: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2012-April/003008.html Builds and works locally, won't build in my PPA. If you have any idea what build dependencies I'm missing please let me know. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gtk+3.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/954352 Title: Enable wayland backend Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Add --enable-wayland-backend to build flags. I believe this is all that's necessary for wayland to work with the existing Precise gtk packages. Wayland has one released version, 0.85, which is in the precise archives: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wayland/ I'm told gtk 3.4 is (and will remain) compatable with it. Since gtk 3.4 is apparently already packaged for Precise, all that remains to be able to use some gtk applications via wayland is this build flag.
