I noticed that in the documents but wasn't too sure what that really
meant. I'm generally a default install kind of person and the default
install is probably not wayland, so I didn't notice any changes there.
I think I am might be off track anyways. I set up virtualgl and turbovnc
and seem to have it working. But I feel like this is alot of extra work
for my basic goal, which is probably more towards a fast X11 forwarding
solution. I am a software developer and need to write java/nodejs/web kind
of stuff and so really just need a bunch of shells open, along with an
IDE. X11 forwarding is super easy to get going but is slow as molasses at
the same time. Do you have advice for what it takes to get a fast X11
forwarding solution working or general feedback overall? Maybe there is
another 'Fast X11" project out there. :-)
