Will have a look. > Can you give more exact details about how you reproduced this issue? xorg is easiest, because Fedora 28 uses that by default for vmware svga: (1) download Fedora 28 workstation live iso. (2) boot in qemu with -vga vmware. To try wayland you have to install fedora to disk (can be done using the workstation live iso). You can switch between xorg and wayland using /etc/gdm/custom.conf then, by commenting/uncommenting the WaylandEnable line ... [daemon] # Uncoment the line below to force the login screen to use Xorg #WaylandEnable=false ... and rebooting. > I prefer to have a similar setup to make sure we have fixed the > regression in this series. xorg regression needs fixing. Having wayland working too would be nice, but wayland doesn't work with the current emulation either. So it isn't a regression and can be done as separate patch series later on. cheers, Gerd
