Curious from people who follow its development closely.

  • What protocol are about to be finally implemented?
  • Which ones are still a struggle?
  • How many serious protocols are there missing?

      What does this mean? Like unplugging without unplugging? Keeping one screen active and only turning off the other one?

      I mean in the KDE monitor options I can choose [mirror,extend to left,extend to right,only external,only internal] so this is 100% possible.

          This will be possible and likely available as a command for your specific compositor. What are you using?

            It was the one that came default with ubuntu 22.10 But as I have stated in my initial post, the feature had been restored by reinstalling Xwindow Also, I feel that the commands equivalent to

            xset dpms force off
            xset dpms force standby
            xset dpms force suspend
            

            Should be the same regardless which wayland variant you are using.

              No the implementations are per-compositor. The fact that this worked on X is due to.XOrg being a huge blob that every window manager relied on.

              Look for the command in Mutter (GNOME), Kwin (KDE), or whatever DE you use.

                  Its how Linux works lol. I mean there are tons of things per compositor.

                  The protocols are way cleaner and less, so it is easier for Distros to just write their own.

                  But for sure it is annoying that everyone wants to do their own. But that is not a Wayland problem, just nobody wanted to mess with XOrg.
