[bug#29758] [PATCH] gnu: mutter: Add xorg-xserver-xwayland input. (GNOME on Wayland)

[Rutger Helling]

Thanks for pushing! I mailed you the login name of the account I created 
on savannah.gnu.org.

I'm actually not using the GuixSD config for it. What I have in it 
related to SDDM is:
         (service sddm-service-type
                 (sddm-configuration
                  (display-server "wayland")))

The only thing that's different from an untouched sddm-service-type is 
that the above says that SDDM should be using Wayland as well.
However, this doesn't work yet, so SDDM still uses X11 (I think upstream 
SDDM is working on it).

On SDDM you can select "GNOME (Wayland)" under sessions. For me that 
works out of the box.
I'll try SLiM, GDM and vanilla SDDM this weekend and see if they all 
work properly.
