Re: Userspace VT consoles in copr

I am sorry to repeat it for the 3rd time,
But for a "stupidly minimal" stack, cage, weston etc... all exist with foot, weston-terminal, etc...

You will be solved of many problems small and big, once the *only* stack is the wayland stack (maybe different protocols, but the same libraries).

All compositors support XKB, atleast one keyboard layout at a time.

All compositors have been well-written to use the DRM interface and display a program.
All minimal terminal emulators render better than KMSCon.

KMSCon, well, reimplements the *entire* stack above the DRM layer (maybe using evdev/libinput over the VT)...
It has it's own set of issues, quirks etc...

The entire thread (I mean the topic of discarding kernel VTs) has only 1 leftover issue, maybe more: KMSCon XKB handling, maybe in the future it will have more issues, previously on my old Gentoo system it had rendering issues while a cage+foot (or weston+weston-terminal? I don't remember) setup was crystal-sharp-smooth.

Anyone who wants such a really stupid setup without *anything*, won't use a "bloated" (in their terms) distro like fedora.

I am really sorry if this sounds like a rant, really sorry.

Keep KMSCon low-priority, or just temporarily discard it, and continue with the wayland stacks.

Once everything is setup and atleast 1 fedora system is running without kernel VTs with userspace VTs, go back to work on kmscon.
(of course, no system-specific hacks; A "default configuration" fresh system)
