| It is running in xwayland though
It definitely isn't on my system, and I did not touch the configs at all; are you sure about that?
- whalesalad 2y agoFairly positive due to blurry cursors, but I have no way to verify.
- ndiddy 2y agoIf you run xeyes and the eyes follow your cursor when it's above the application you want to test, it's running under xwayland. If they don't follow your cursor, the application is running under native Wayland.
- 369548684892826 2y agofinally a use for xeyes?
- ndiddy 2y agoI don't use vanilla xeyes but I use the Window Maker dockapp version (https://bstern.org/wmeyes/ https://bstern.org/wmeyes/) to make it easier to find my cursor on the screen.
- shrimp_emoji 2y agoHa. KDE 6 has something like if you jiggle the cursor a certain way, it temporarily grows larger. Better than Windows's function of "hide all my windows"...
- whalesalad 2y agoI think every OS has this feature. Sometimes it is hidden in an accessibility menu and needs to be turned on.
- BrandoElFollito 2y agoPressing some key a few times in Windows highlights your cursor. I just can't remember what it was (Ctrl I think)
- jacekm 2y agoYup, Ctrl twice.
- mkl 2y agoOnce works. It's an option you have to turn on: Settings > Mouse > Additional mouse options > Show location of pointer when I press the CTRL key.
- BrandoElFollito 2y agoOh thank you thank you. I moved to Windows 11 and the feature disappeared - it is right where your path points to.
- lagniappe 2y agoI always run xeyes in any net-enabled gui. iykyk.
- whalesalad 2y agoWelp, looks like it is running native wayland yet the cursors are blurry. The only time I have ever experienced that is when an app is running under xwayland.
- executesorder66 2y agoIf you run xlsclients it will list all applications running through xwayland. [0] https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/xorg-xlsclients/ https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/xorg-xlsclients/
- whalesalad 2y agoOooh, thank you this is very convenient. Confirmed zed is not listed here.
