- jcelerier 7y agoI use ssh -X multiple times per week in general. Wayland in itself does not provide something equivalent.
- cycloptic 7y agoKeep an eye on the waypipe project for the equivalent functionality: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mstoeckl/waypipe/ https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mstoeckl/waypipe/
- jcelerier 7y agoI don't think any solution based on video streaming can ever match what X11 provides, which is, remote apps use the settings of the client computer for rendering. e.g. with ssh -X, if I set my dpi in my .Xresources, no matter the machine to which I'm ssh'ing to, I'm always getting a correct font size for my local screen.
- cycloptic 7y agoI haven't tested but there is no reason that can't be done in waypipe. It works by intercepting certain protocol messages and proxying them over the network. The client just has to be given the output information from the remote machine.
- jjdredd 7y agoI don't think it's the case. X just works for me. Had to configure it once, after that I experienced no friction using or updating it.
