Subject: [gentoo-user] New install - Wayland and graphical login
Date: Mon, 21 Jun 2021 17:27:31 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <60D0BDF3.9000302@youngman.org.uk> (raw)

What happens when you get to the end of the handbook?

I want to get a working Wayland setup with a (multi-user) graphical
login. When I set my old system up ($DEITY knows how long ago) I seem to
remember a page on setting up X, and all sorts of stuff.

Now, you seem to get dumped at working tty1 prompt, and then the
*helpful* documentation JUST STOPS. It doesn't even point you at
anything! (Yes it points you at the portage page about how to maintain
your system, but that isn't much use if you can't DO anything with the
system...)

I've found the page on Wayland, but it just says "set this use flag and
install two packages".

Where's the documentation that tells me what I need, and how to set it
up, please ...

Cheers,
Wol
