Raspberry Pi OS • Re: Trying to disable Wayland

But I found no screen recorder that works with Wayland.
See wf-recorder from https://github.com/ammen99/wf-recorder.

Thanks!
I reverted to Wayland and did "sudo apt install wf-recorder" instead.
What was missing is the easy selection of the area to record.
I read the manpage, and slurp was what I needed:

Code:

sudo apt install slurp
It turned out that wf-recorder manpage example is wrong:

Code:

...EXAMPLES     To select a specific part of the screen you can either use --g geometry     or use https://github.com/emersion/slurp for interactive selection of the     screen area that will be recorded:           $ wf-recorder -g $(slurp)...
But it works with quotes:

Code:

wf-recorder -g "$(slurp)"

gimp does not work under Wayland either.
GIMP does work if you don't mind using the Beta from Flatpak, I use GIMP here under Wayland

Code:

flatpak install --user https://flathub.org/beta-repo/appstream/org.gimp.GIMP.flatpakref
Where to get flatpack from?

Code:

pi@raspberrypi5:~ $ sudo apt search flatpackSorting... DoneFull Text Search... Donepi@raspberrypi5:~ $ 

P.S:
I lost my SD-card completely 3 days ago.
It was new SD-card I created when getting my Pi5 3 months ago.
I was not sure whether I wanted NVME hat for Pi5 or not — now I am sure.
And I did not want to wait for official NVME hat so I ordered Pimoroni NVME hat two days ago:
https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/nvme ... 9587178579
Shipping cost from UK to Germany (despite UK being non-EU) was less than for some Germany based companies.
I did not loose much with the SD card crash, most stuff scattered on different forums postings, github repos and github gists, discord, mailing lists, ...
