Enlightenment E19 To Have Full Wayland Support 140
An anonymous reader writes "Full Wayland support has been added to Enlightenment 0.19. Building upon earlier Wayland support, Enlightenment can now act as its own Wayland compositor by communicating directly with the kernel's DRM drivers instead of having to rely upon Weston. The Wayland support is still considered experimental but it's now the first Linux desktop with full Wayland support."
Quick README on building and using it.

I hear the sound is pretty awful on that one.

If I ever need to access the graphical user interface of a remote machine and I can not use VNC, then I will write a patch for the application I would like to manage to accept text commands. If that doesn't work, I will set up a script that screenshots the user interface, mails it in BMP format to my outlook folder, then I will mail back mouse coordinates and clicks. I will do that before either using X11 or implementing X11. It's a matter of software architectual principles.

I'm still running Enlightenment DR .9 compiled on Irix 6.3. Can somebody on this forum help me with fixing dependency problems using XMKMF that prevent me from going to Irix 6.5?
Also, Windowmaker docklets are not always updating when rendered. Is this a libpng problem or Enlightenment? I emailed Mandrake, but no response.
