From b2eecfce48aba97bb396fe84320e098b0eca9ae1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Robin Candau Date: Mon, 16 Sep 2024 10:44:29 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Document the usage of `MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=0` in README to use systray-x under Wayland It seems like `MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=0` is required instead of `GDK_BACKEND=x11` in some specific cases (e.g. with Thunderbird 128+ on Sway, see https://github.com/Ximi1970/systray-x/issues/199#issuecomment-2351796927) --- README.md | 6 +++++- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index de9c00d..b058bf6 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -82,6 +82,10 @@ and change the `Exec` line into this: Exec=env GDK_BACKEND=x11 thunderbird %u ``` +If `GDK_BACKEND=x11` doesn't work, one could try the following instead: +```bash +env MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=0 thunderbird +``` ## Linux distributions @@ -454,7 +458,7 @@ Please use `gnome-extensions` to enable the gnome shell extension `appindicators sudo pacman -S systray-x-minimal ``` -#### AUR alternative install (by Antiz96) +#### Alternative install (by Antiz96) Install the `systray-x` package from the Arch repo. This is a split package that will offer you to either install the [systray-x-common](https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/systray-x-common/) package which is suitable for any DE/WM except KDE (Gnome users need to install and enable the `gnome-shell-extension-appindicator` for a proper integration with Gnome) or the [systray-x-kde](https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/systray-x-kde/) package which includes specific options and dependencies for a proper integration with KDE.
