Re: Use Wayland for a single application fullscreen without window decoration

Hi Christian,

   My Lightwing application runs OpenGL ES full-screen only. I found that you really don't have to use Wayland, but just use the lower-level DRM (Display Resource Manager) API, instead.

   I have not used Qt for years, but I remember its window manager used to have a "no decoration" build option.

Regards, Clay

Hello,

 

I have a Variscite Dart i.MX8M (this Model: http://variwiki.com/index.php?title=DART-MX8M) and I want to run a single application (Qt) without window decoration, and it should run in fullscreen mode. I’ve also read that EGLFS with i.MX8 is no more supported (this was my preferred solution), and only Wayland or XWayland is possible. This Wayland/Weston topic is completely new to me. Is there a more detailed description how to get it running? Do I have to use Weston Compositor, or should I use a different compositor?

I’ve read through this : https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Wayland , but I didn’t find a solution for my problem. Is there anybody who already did this?

 

Best regards,
