[SOLVED] using x11 session, but games open on Wayland.
I want to play Star Citizen with x11. but even changing the session to x11 the games continue to use Wayland.

you can't have both at the same time, what makes you think it's opening in Wayland?
what do you have at the bottom of about?
It shouldn't be a bug with mangohud
you are on X11
right
one moment
I'm going to open a game
look
are you using gamescope and/or playing in gamemode?
session: wayland
gamemode
that's your problem
gamescope is a wayland compositor
if you want x11 you'll have to play on the desktop
I will disable
show me your launch options
ok
that's very odd, has to be a bug of some kind because I don't see gamescope being requested and you cannot use wayland on an x11 desktop without a nested compositor
no way that's accurate
I also found that strange
the same thing happens on steam
playing valheim on steam
haha
How is this possible!? haha
when the game is running check with
ps ax | grep gamescope
and see if it actually uses gamescope in the background
you can also look for other things like wayland and stuff
as its certainly oddok i am leaning towards bug too because gamescope is not even running
no idea why mangohud reports wayland there
Star Citizen does not work correctly when I use Wayland
I'm going to open the game, if the cursor keeps running, it's because I'm using Wayland
It's really using x11, I shouldn't trust mangohud
wtf
loel
I checked and unchecked the session option in goverlay and it is showing correctly now
sorry for your time
lmao
thats kinda funny
imagine being gaslighted by goverlay 😂
