Re: Window management

Thorben, you have to be very careful with your assumptions here if you want Wayland to be agnostic of any particular UI paradigm. Maximize doesn't always mean taking all space. What happens if there are 2-3 monitors with different resolutions? What does fullscreen mean with multiple monitors? If a

Re: Input and games.

Todd, Generic device input may be too complicated to put it into Wayland protocol. For example, take Razer Hydra controller: http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/08/razer-totes-hydra-sticks-and-6400dpi-dual-sensor-mice-to-e3-2011/

Re: protocol questions

What about "long int" type to store the time stamps? Even in microseconds it will take longer than 100 years to overflow 2^63. NK On Sat, Mar 30, 2013 at 9:55 AM, Thiago Macieira wrote: > On sábado, 30 de março de 2013 09.34.24, Matthias Clasen wrote: > > >> - Various input events have a time f

Re: Helping in reviewing

I'm not a Wayland developer but I suspect it wouldn't be wise to lump Wayland (protocol) and Weston (compositor) together on this issue. Wayland: I'm not sure why it is a problem that Wayland patches take time to be merged. Isn't it the whole point of any protocol to be as stable as possible? If t

Re: Developing a core shell protocol

Actually, there is a value in clients that need 2 shells at the same time. Think about an SDK or a development environment for a phone OS. The development environment would work in a desktop shell because it is more convenient for developers to write code in an IDE on a desktop/laptop. At the same

Re: Developing a core shell protocol

Are you thinking of developing a new phone OS on Wayland/Weston? I seem to remember Tizen folks wanted to do something similar. Not sure if it's still in the works. Nick On Mon, Feb 11, 2013 at 8:52 AM, Jason Ekstrand wrote: > On Mon, Feb 11, 2013 at 4:06 AM, Pekka Paalanen > wrote: > > On Sat

Re: [PATCH weston 6/6] Add informal notes file

Kristian, What do you have in mind as a real documentation? Are you thinking of a 100+ pages user manual? If so, I can envision the following problems with this route: (1) Your developers' time is a precious resource. Someone in your team will have to stop development work to write it. (2) The lo

Re: Wayland and Weston 1.0

Wayland team, Thank you for your effort and contribution to this excellent project. I'm really hoping to see Wayland in one of Linux distros soon. Pekka, It is probably a good idea to copy/paste the information that you posted into some kind of a user guide. A simple and short text file would suff

I would like to share with you a couple of demos of the 3D virtual reality desktop, courtesy of Hesham Wahba. I believe it will give you a better idea of what Pekka was talking about: Demo 1 shows the side-by-side view for left and right eyes. It also shows orientation control by a gyroscope in iP
