Troubleshooting • Re: pi-gen to generate a Bookworm image with X11 as default

I'm glad to hear you're finding pi-gen useful!

On configuring Bookworm to _always_ use X11, rather than Wayland, I'd offer a caution. This is a configuration we're looking to move away from - with older Raspberry Pi devices also moving to a Wayland compositor.

If you have the development bandwidth available, I'd _strongly_ encourage you to investigate if XWayland can provide the compatibility layer you need: https://wayland.freedesktop.org/xserver.html

Equally, if you find that it cannot, I'd be very keen to hear your specific issues - we're likely to see them again as the migration continues.

Now, caution aside, if you do want to continue to enforce X11 over Wayland (which again I _must_ caution against), I'd suggest your best plan is to copy the relevant blocks from raspi-config into a new stage that you add to the end of your pi-gen stage list. I'd start here: https://github.com/RPi-Distro/raspi-con ... nfig#L2389

I'd also recommend looking at the other raspi-config blocks to uncover any other directives you might require to get a performant runtime.
