Hello,

Thanks I'll probably write a proper patch then.

Yeah, that was more for future contributions, I'll get this one fixed
when applying.

Now, I also tried to run Sway (by adding it to the operating-system
packages list). It is proposed in the GDM selection box at login which
is nice, however all I get is a black screen with a frozen mouse
pointer after that.

There's a bunch of errors in /var/log/messages and
/var/log/gdm/greeter.log but I'm not sure if some are relevant here.

Mathieu
