Hi, there is no existing way to do that through Wayland. You could force a VT-switch away, that should put Weston to SLEEPING. You could write a new Wayland extension, implement it in Weston and your app, and control the compositor state that way. However, generally it is a bad idea to let arbitrary clients freeze the compositor, but you could restrict it to a specific special client. Why do you want to put Weston to SLEEPING? What would wake it up? Thanks, pq
