Enabling Wayland in an Image
- This section talks about two different ways to enable Wayland:
- to run under X11 (the default), or to run under Kernel Mode
- Setting (KMS).
+ To enable Wayland, you need to enable it to be built and enable
+ it to be included in the image.
-
- I don't clearly understand the steps as they are described in the
- Enable Wayland in an Image
- section of the wiki.
- I need help in understanding this section before I can complete
- this first draft of the new section.
- What I don't understand is what you have to do exactly for each
- method.
- The description in the wiki implies that you need to append the
- "wayland" feature to use KMS/DRI as well as X11 (both).
- I need some clarification and clearer steps for the user.

+
+ Building
+
+
+ To cause Mesa to build the wayland-egl
+ platform and Weston to build Wayland with Kernel Mode
+ Setting
+ (KMS)
+ support, include the "wayland" flag in the
+ DISTRO_FEATURES
+ statement in your local.conf file:
+
+ DISTRO_FEATURES_append = " wayland"
+
+
+
+
+ If X11 has been enabled elsewhere, Weston will build Wayland
+ with X11 support
+
+
+
+
+ Installing
+
+
+ To install the Wayland feature into an image, you must
+ include the following
+ CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL
+ statement in your local.conf file:
+
+ CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL += "wayland weston"
+
