Someone else was trying Sway with LightDM and got it to work. LightDM wiki page also says it supports Wayland. But maybe our packaging doesn't, I need to check back with him. Did you check with LightDM as- is? It ought to show stuff from /usr/share/wayland-sessions/ as choices (maybe enlightenment doesn't have an entry there?). Command line launching should be possible, but I don't know the details to get everything going correctly. Mart
