It will allow root applications to connect to XWayland for the current session.
Thanks. That solved the problem of being able to run Yast.
Is there any documentation -- preferably a man page -- on this. The "xhost" man page mentions "si" but without any details.
I still have a problem, that logout from the Wayland Gnome session leaves many running processes. And these seem to interfere with login to a KDE session by the same user. (Manually killing the processes does solve the problem).
And I still have the problem that Gnome is not running under Wayland in a more recent install of Tumbleweed. It cannot be a graphic display problem, because it is on the same computer (different partition) as the one that does give Wayland sessions.
1. Google/etc "xhost si:localuser" 2. From a leap 42.1 system: "man 1 xhost" (part of xhost package) excerpt: The local family specifies all the local connections at once. How- ever, the server interpreted address "si:localuser:[username]" can be used to specify a single local user. (See the Xsecurity(7) manual page for more details.) "man 7 Xsecurity" (part of xorg-docs package) online: https://www.x.org/archive/X11R6.8.1/doc/Xsecurity.7.html https://linux.die.net/man/7/xsecurity excerpt: Server Interpreted The Server Interpreted method provides two strings to the X server for entry in the access control list. The first string represents the type of entry, and the second string contains the value of the entry. These strings are interpreted by the server and different implementations and builds may support different types of entries. The types supported in the sample implementation are defined in the SERVER INTERPRETED ACCESS TYPES section below. Entries of this type can be manipulated via xhost. For example to add a Server Interpreted entry of type localuser with a value of root, the command is xhost +si:localuser:root. - Yamaban -- Search for info yourself first, ask second. .
