Hm, I use a compositor for/in X as well, it is launched in .xinitrc before the window manager, I've heard it makes toggling between windows in X faster and what I can tell (not 100) it seems to be the case as well. E.g. picom & openbsd-cwm & in https://dataswamp.org/~incal/conf/.xinitrc > So how you set up and launch the compositor depends on the > compositor chosen , I imagine (cf respective manpages). > And if you want to execute pure X applications that are not > Wayland compatible, you must first launch Xwayland ( > https://wiki.debian.org/Wayland#Xwayland ) What are the pure X applications? This is the software I use almost every day https://dataswamp.org/~incal/SOFTWARE The ones that start with an "x" are xterm and xpdf ... -- underground experts united https://dataswamp.org/~incal
