weston.ini cannot work

wangtsungli — Fri, 19 Oct 2018 11:35:34 GMT

Hi community,

I'm trying to change desktop on weston.

And I modify weston.ini which is located under .config folder.

Below is my weston.ini content.

[core]
xwayland=true
#idle-time=0
#backend=drm-backend.so
[shell]
type=desktop-shell.so
background-image=/usr/share/qt5/examples/quick/demos/rssnews/content/images/Technology.jpg
background-color=0x00000000
[screensaver] path=/usr/lib/weston/weston-screensaver
duration=600
[launcher]
icon=/usr/share/icons/Adwaita/24x24/apps/utilities-terminal-symbolic.symbolic.pn
path=/usr/bin/weston-terminal
[launcher]
icon=/usr/share/icons/Adwaita/24x24/apps/preferences-system-sharing-symbolic.sym
path=/usr/bin/producttestingtool_qt5 -platform wayland

As you can see, I add [shell] and try to use Technology.jpg to be my new desktop.

But after I reboot the system, desktop did not change.

It still the default desktop.

How can I change it?

Thanks in Advanced!

Thanks for your reply.

I'm using freescale released Yocto Project 2.0 with kernel 4.1.15 QT5.4.

And I using DISTRO "fsl-imx-wayland".

Is there anything I need to mention?

Hello,

I apologize for the delay.

Can you please try to put the weston.ini file in the root directory and try to see if that works?

Best Regards,

Diego

Solved, just fix with

[shell]

backgroung-color=0xffff0000

===============

Hi @diegoadrian

Same happend at

i.mx8qxp 5.15 fsl-imx-wayland

I add following change to weston.ini and nothing changed.

background-image=/home/root/driverExample/2022-07-26-170417.jpg
backgroung-color=0xffff0000
homescreen=/home/root/driverExample/2022-07-26-170417.jpg
[libinput]
touchscreen_calibrator=false

transform=rotate-90

Also I try put weston.ini to following path, but still not work.

/etc/xdg/weston/weston.ini
~/.config/weston.ini
~/weston.ini

Any suggests?
