Just use a Distro that has it preset. Ubuntu, Fedora, I dont know what else.

Ubuntu LTS and 23.x are both Xorg. Latest has Wayland. If 24.04 is to be LTS though, I don’t think they’d release it with Wayland as default. I’d think they’d switch to Wayland on 24.10 so there’s 3 more releases to get good before the next LTS build.

Damn... so StudioOne on their "Linux info page" was wrong. They only support Ubuntu (sigh...) but also only Wayland.

A good start for a Flatpak? Maybe if it wasnt proprietary...

Possible I’m wrong? I was going against the Distrowatch details since I was just looking at them a couple hours before I replied: https://distrowatch.com/table-mobile.php?distribution=ubuntu

I don’t usually “trust” vendor support for Linux though…Linux is usually a second-class citizen and “support” means there is either a single grey-beard or an intern that’s answering emails about it. Idk about StudioOne, but unfortunately it’s usually expected to not have feature parity or complete documentation for commercial software on Linux. IME, YMMV, etc.

They dont support it at all currently but have an experimental version. As if that was too much, with their software costing 200€+

Ubuntu 21.04 uses Wayland by default https://canonical.com/blog/ubuntu-21-04-is-here

[-] jasondj@ttrpg.network 1 points 10 months ago

My mistake, then. I haven’t really used Ubuntu much since focal. I was going off the package list in distrowatch.

[-] dewritoninja@pawb.social 1 points 10 months ago

I'm pretty sure 22.04 and newer are Wayland.
