xwayland-satellite

xwayland-satellite grants rootless Xwayland integration to any Wayland compositor implementing xdg_wm_base. This is particularly useful for compositors that (understandably) do not want to go through implementing support for rootless Xwayland themselves.

Dependencies

  • Xwayland >=23.1
  • xcb
  • xcb-util-cursor
  • clang (building only)

Usage

Run xwayland-satellite. You can specify an X display to use (i.e. :12). Be sure to set the same DISPLAY environment variable for any X11 clients. Because xwayland-satellite is a Wayland client (in addition to being a Wayland compositor), it will need to launch after your compositor launches, but obviously before any X11 applications.

Building

cargo build
cargo run
