[LAU] GxPlugins.lv2, Wayland and X (Was: Re: Linux-audio-user Digest, Vol 140, Issue 9)Re: Linux-audio-user Digest, Vol 140, Issue 10

Hmm, do they work on Ubuntu 18.04's Gnome3-based user interface
running on top of Wayland (without X)?

AFAIK any X client will work in a Wayland session just fine, thanks
to
XWayland.

XFCE won't run on Ubuntu 18.04 unless you set Ubuntu to use X instead
of Wayland. And it doesn't run reliably even then.

In that case, maybe Ubuntu's Wayland or XWayland implementation is a
bit "special". It is *supposed* to work just like that so that you
don't even know, and it does work on most systems.

Not on mine. It was a fresh install over 16.04 LTS, which never had such
problems.
