Desktop Environment

Notebook: Gnome 3.38.5 wayland, gnome-shell 3.38.6 → waypipe -n ssh -R /tmp/socket-way:/tmp/socket-l5 Librem5 → Librem5: Gnome 3.38.5 wayland, Phosh 0.27.0

waypipe 0.8.6 (commit 033d0e7eb613f1ddfe104d07079a81b8d4e02dac)

I connected (actually to debug some other issue 🤦) from my notebook through ssh to my Librem5 phone using waypipe to get the tangram window from the phone on my notebook.

Problem

Starting Tangram everything seems to be normal and I get the following messages on the command line:

user@notebook$ waypipe -n ssh -R /tmp/socket-way:/tmp/socket-l5 Librem5
purism@pureos:~$ GDK_BACKEND=wayland flatpak run re.sonny.Tangram

Tangrams window shows up on my notebook (forwarded over waypipe/ssh from the phone I logged into via ssh):

Clicking the Go button gives me the following message on the console:

(process:2): Gtk-WARNING **: 14:47:21.034: Failed to open display

And the gui output looks like this:

Each time I enter a new address and click on Add the error message (process:2): Gtk-WARNING **: 14:48:35.776: Failed to open display is repeated and I end up with the same window content.

I'm afraid you'll have to dig yourself, I doubt a lot of people will run into this.

It looks related to WebkitGTK and sandbox. I suggest trying to reproduce with GNOME Web (flatpak)

[chri2]

Thanks, that is a good idea. I'll try that and report back if I find something out.

You were right, the problem is the same with gnome-web:

someuser@pureos:~$ waypipe -n ssh -R /tmp/socket-way:/tmp/socket-l5 l5h flatpak run org.gnome.Epiphany

I think your best chance is to report the issue to waypipe.
