Wayland Ported To DragonFlyBSD (phoronix.com)

Posted by Soulskill on from the welcome-to-the-party dept.

An anonymous reader writes: Wayland 1.9 and the reference Weston compositor have been ported to DragonFlyBSD. Significant changes were made to get Wayland/Weston running, and you must either already be running an X.Org Server or be using the Linux-ported Radeon and Intel kernel mode-setting drivers, plus jump through a few setup steps.

    wrong, it would be properly maintainable and debuggable Unix-type subsystem if it only did that.

    but poettering and his followers have urban sprawl and scope creep, building a monolithic bloated pile that is NOT the unix way and is a nightmare to debug

    I don't complain so much about your list above as your disingenuous posting style. Your point is valid that, if people don't like a Free Software option, they should try to contribute their own effort instead of complaining of what other devs are doing. But you know perfectly well that there are not "plenty of distros" that are successfully resisting systemd, you know perfectly well that most items in the list you posted are dodgy ports that have no longterm prospectives, and by posting such rubbish you only undermine the other points you are making.

    Fucking garbage like you are putting huge headwinds to progress. Fuck you for breaking shit that works to make it "better" and leaving it a bullshit undocumented half broken or mostly broken state. Fuck you. And FUCK YOU for never testing your stupid broken shit.

    And you know your disgusting buggy negligence you are injecting into once far more functioning FOSS software has at times lead to the deaths of others. Your garbage shit software and your horrible bugs are murderous. No warranty, express or implied. But YOU did it.
