Subject: bug#56965: wterm does not work on sway
Date: Wed, 03 Aug 2022 21:54:12 -0400

wterm is said to be a simple terminal for wayland:

#+BEGIN_SRC shell  :results: raw
guix show wterm | recsel -p synopsis
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
: synopsis: Terminal emulator for Wayland

Well, when I try to use it, I get the following error on sway.  wterm
does not start.

joshua <at> crazyhorse ~ (master)> wterm 
wl_drm <at> 11: error 0: authenticate failed
# wayland_create_context: DRM authentication failed
# wayland_create_context: No wl_shm global
# wld_wayland_create_context: Could not initialize any of the specified implementations
Can't create wayland context


Thanks,

Joshua
