Have you tried waypipe?I suspect for some use cases it'll be aroung longer than that. I need an easy, reliable way of running GUI applications (not the entire Desktop) on remote displays before I can drop X11. AFAIK Wayland doesn't have that yet.
Doesn't appear to fit my use case (remote X server on a windows box running in multi-window mode).
To use waypipe it appears that I need to:
- install a WSL2 instance
- Install an X server on windows (or configure the built in WSL2 one) (already have one - cygwinX)
- Install Wayland
- Download and build waypipe from source as it's not in the repo for the debian build I opted for.
- Install waypipe on my Pi
- Then to actually use it:
- Start the X server (happens at boot on my main rig)
- Open a WSL2 terminal and start wayland. That gets me a wayland root window & desktop manager displayed on the X server. Which, at least to me, seems to defeat the object of wayland in the first place.
- Open a second WSL2 terminal (or open a terminal in the wayland desktop) and With more hoops to jump through if I want a specific cwd for that process.
Code:
waypipe ssh user@server application
Code:
ssh -X user@servercd some/directorysome-applicationStatistics: Posted by thagrol — Fri Feb 23, 2024 1:20 am
