I had kind of forgotten about this thread, then today when I was trying to run an Xdialog script (under wayland) and it balked with some oddities, then I finally realized it was related to your problem, and your solution of adding parms (to be passed to xwayland)
I had already added parms once, to set the dpi properly (new 4k monitor) so I went back and remembered that you had added the -auth stuff early, so I modified the patch and recompiled wlroots (and stuff depending on it).
| Code: | | Xwayland :0 -dpi 163 -auth /home/don/.Xauthority -rootless -terminate -core -listenfd 20 -listenfd 21 -wm 24 |
Lo and behold, the auth pass through works. *two thumbs up*
Note: the only other thing I did was add read permissions to .Xauthority in my home dir.

A new way to pass parms to Xwayland, that doesn't involve me compiling the parms in.
I put a question on the wlroots git about it, and the reply was ... interesting. I didn't think it would work but it did.
1st create a shell script
| Code: | $ cat bin/Xwayland.sh
#!/bin/sh
authfile=$HOME/.Xauthority
exec /home/don/bin/Xwayland -dpi 163 -auth $authfile "$@" |
Then I took out the hard coded stuff from wlroots, recompiled, rebooted and checked it.
| Code: | | /home/don/bin/Xwayland -dpi 163 -auth /home/don/.Xauthority :0 -rootless -terminate -core -listenfd 20 -listenfd 21 -wm 24 |
I hadn't tried it this way in the past, I added them to the end of the line, but it didn't seem to work.
Anyway, just another way to pass some X parms.
