I'm trying to get `labwc` running on a Debian 12 system using LightDM as the login manager. I chose labwc because I'm a long-time Openbox user, and labwc is supposed to be almost a drop-in replacement for Wayland. Unfortunately, it's not available as a package so I had to build it myself. Which went reasonably well - although it demands a newer version of wlroots than Debian has (Debian has 0.15.1, labwc wants 0.16), so it downloaded and built that itself. And at the end of this, I ran `meson install --skip-subprojects -C build/` and it put stuff in the /usr/local/ tree. This dropped a /usr/local/share/wayland-sessions/labwc.desktop file which LightDM has ignored. Probably fixable, but I instead copied it to /usr/share/wayland-sessions/ alongside "weston.desktop". This worked, in the sense that I now have a "labwc" option at the LightDM login screen, but didn't work in that attempting to use it blacks the screen for 5-10 seconds and then returns to LightDM. I should add that the "weston" session works as expected. Also, running `labwc` inside an X session produces a window with a functioning labwc session inside of it. But of course I want to log directly into labwc. Any thoughts or suggestions appreciated. -- Giles https://www.gilesorr.com/ gilesorr@gmail.com
