[0chroma]

when using gnome on wayland on manjaro linux, I get the following crash when trying to launch pcsx2:

I have "linked" this issue with the bigger issue above also added the Wayland 🍂 tag to all related issues.

And we will look into it in the new mini project post 0.8b:

Wheyland 🥛 project <---- Now that is a good name!

[Lazorne]

Actually we might have found the problem with a missing QT variable, my guess it will work on certain emulators but not all. We have updated issue #420 and you you want to help us test it out you can just comment on the discord and be promoted to Beta Tester

new error:

qt.qpa.plugin: Could not find the Qt platform plugin ""wayland" in ""
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not find the Qt platform plugin "xcb"" in ""
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: wayland-egl, wayland, xcb.

looks like you just need to remove the quotes from that change haha

my discord is the same as my github username ^^

Hopefully this commit fix it then.

However what is wayland-egl is worth to adding it?

[0chroma]

it's the egl version of wayland that doesn't pull in any X dependencies, see: https://wayland.freedesktop.org/faq.html#heading_toc_j_12

I think excluding it would only break really exotic setups that have no X11 support, kind of unthinkable in 2024 though. Including it may lead to better performance in some way, at a minimum less memory usage. Not entirely sure though since I've never experimented with it.

[0chroma]

ah, QT recommends it, so I'd say yea it's worth including: https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtwaylandcompositor-index.html#running-the-wayland-compositor

Can you check the latest cooker build? I did some manifest tweaks regarding wayland and x11 support @0chroma
