What configure option does "-Dbuffer=true" correspond to? Does "-Dopengl=es-egl" mean "--with-opengl=es"? Because i don't see any other options besides "full" or "none". I have to admit, i'm a little lost on the differences and requirements for opengl, gl-drm, egl, es-egl, etc. Is there by any chance a short reference to all these terms?

[e-users] Wayland problems
I've followed the instructions on this page: https://www.enlightenment.org/about-wayland adding the necessary configure options. (Note: --enable-wayland-clients and --enable-wayland-egl for enlightenment's configure are not recognised. I used --enable-wayland instead.) I'm using efl 1.21.1 and enlightenment 0.22.4. Everything seems to work, except for these two problems: 1) There's a big, fat arrow cursor in the center of the screen. I would say it's the default X cursor, but this is wayland... It's separate from the normal cursor, which functions as expected. It's a static cursor image that appears on top of everything else. 2) Window decorations appear to be broken! I have a borderless terminology window, and completely decoration-free conky windows open on startup, and they all have borders and drop shadow. Programs (such as Chrome) that manage their own decorations and positioning also have an enlightenment border added, creating a double-border effect, and their positioning over-ridden. Are there fixes or configuration settings to correct either of these? Another quick question -- that same web page mentions a wayland-only option, but the link to those instructions says it's not safe for everyday use. Is this still the case? Obviously, until the above problems are fixed, i'm not about to compile enlightenment without X support.

So, will I just have to do that as a work around or does that suggest something that can be done so it will work out of the box? One note: my Mga6 machine, where the program works with no problem is a small laptop with just Intel graphics. My main Mga7 machine is an nVidia Optimus laptop with the proprietary nVidia driver (which I have needed in order to get edge bindings to work properly even with the Intel on-board graphics as default). ___ enlightenment-users mailing list enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users
