it might be one day, but right now in 16.04
unity8-desktop-session-mir is not exactly ready or recommended for
prime time. For starters dual screens mean one of them gets stuff
written on it sideways asking you to use it as a touchpad for the
other screen!
How is this related? :)
well it is one thing of many that makes me feel that convergence is a
long way off and Unity 8 isn't supposed to be used on grown up hardware
yet :)
I have not been able to launch any apps for more than a second or
two (possibly something to do with cgroups services in systemd?)
and I am not sure that xmir is ready to have X apps launched from
the app scope.
there's a work in progress bug for not being able to launch apps on
UbuntuClassic+Unity8/Mir. That is supposed to work on the tablet.
yeah, it is quite possible that the cgroups thing is related to my
laptop which was a clean install of 12.04 and has been upgraded every
release from there and I installed the Mir and Wayland previews as soon
as they were available so something may have gone astray along the way.
Lets say for a moment we go along with the converged experience
thing, how in Unity 8 would I have a Qt UI component that is
focussed but not active using touch or mouse or keyboard to
achieve it?
For instance by tabbing through, as you previously said.
OK, so that does work then, I have been unable to get to the point of
having a QML app running in Mir on my laptop, but I will give it another
go and see if I can get any further. If I can run a terminal and a
browser with a debugger then I am basically OK to converge (although
limiting to one functional screen would be a bit of a pain)
