[Bug 1967642] Re: Lubuntu 22.04 beta still using Xorg instead of Wayland
You are correct, and I stand corrected. The Lubuntu Development Newsletter #9 was posted by Simon Quigley who was on the Lubuntu Council for some time, retiring only recently. Alas if you look at the issue 10 using the link I provided (an issue raised in 2014) the LWQt project hasn't advanced to the point where it's seen as being stable yet. Yes it's slowly improved with some developers have no issues earlier this year, yet others having issues with the same code on different hardware, as such it's not seen as something the small Lubuntu team can currently support. For now we (Lubuntu) are a LXQt desktop, and do not support LWQt. We do not know when this will change, even though into the future Wayland will replace Xorg; ie. LXQt will get replaced by LWQt, but when that will occur is unknown. It cannot occur for 22.04, and I don't see it happening in 22.10, beyond that we'll have to wait and see. For now Lubuntu is LXQt only.

> At no time have Lubuntu provided any advice or mention of supporting Wayland, Which is provably wrong. Years ago Lubuntu commited to start using Wayland with Ubuntu 20.10: https://lubuntu.me/lubuntu-development-newsletter-9/ says "Lubuntu is switching to Wayland Lubuntu will be switching to Wayland by default for 20.10." -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1967642 Title: Lubuntu 22.04 beta still using Xorg instead of Wayland To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lubuntu-meta/+bug/1967642/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1967642] Re: Lubuntu 22.04 beta still using Xorg instead of Wayland
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Lubuntu uses LXQt or the X.org version and doesn't support Wayland. Lubuntu doesn't support LWQt; which currently is suitable only for testing purposes; see https://github.com/lxqt/lxqt/issues/10 At no time have Lubuntu provided any advice or mention of supporting Wayland, beyond we're watching what upstream do in the open issue, and when it's ready for more than just testing, we'll evaluate what we do then. ** Bug watch added: github.com/lxqt/lxqt/issues #10 https://github.com/lxqt/lxqt/issues/10 ** Package changed: ubuntu => lubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: lubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Status: New => Opinion -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1967642 Title: Lubuntu 22.04 beta still using Xorg instead of Wayland To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lubuntu-meta/+bug/1967642/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that your bug report is not filed about a specific source package though, rather it is just filed against Ubuntu in general. It is important that bug reports be filed about source packages so that people interested in the package can find the bugs about it. You can find some hints about determining what package your bug might be about at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage. You might also ask for help in the #ubuntu-bugs irc channel on Libera.chat. To change the source package that this bug is filed about visit https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1967642/+editstatus and add the package name in the text box next to the word Package.
