Think twice about Wayland. It breaks everything!

Think twice before abandoning Xorg. Wayland breaks everything!

Hence, if you are interested in existing applications to "just work" without the need for adjustments, then you may be better off avoiding Wayland.

Wayland solves no issues I have but breaks almost everything I need. Even the most basic, most simple things (like xkill) - in this case with no obvious replacement. And usually it stays broken, because the Wayland folks mostly seem to care about Automotive, Gnome, maybe KDE - and alienating everyone else (e.g., people using just an X11 window manager or something like GNUstep) in the process.

Wayland proponents make it seem like Wayland is "the successor" of Xorg, when in fact it is not. It is merely an incompatible alternative, and not even one that has (nor wants to have) feature parity (missing features). And unlike X11 (the X Window System), Wayland protocol designers actively avoid the concept of "windows" (making up incompr

Steps to install a Comodo PositiveSSL certificate with Nginx.

Setting up a SSL Cert from Comodo

I use Namecheap.com as a registrar, and they resale SSL Certs from a number of other companies, including Comodo.

These are the steps I went through to set up an SSL cert.

A way to integrate FosUserBundle and HWIOAuthBundle

I have managed to install this… and make it work. I implemented it for Facebook and Google, but you can extend it. My solution it is mostly as described in #116, with a bit of more code presented. The key aspects that lack in the #116 presentation (IMO) are:

  • the registration as service of your custom FOSUBUserProvider (with the necessary parameters)
  • set the service for oauth_user_provider in the security.yml with your custom created service

Here are the steps:

  1. Routing. In routing.yml I have added all the routes for both bundles.
  2. Configuration. I have set the config.yml mostly as it is presented in the HWIOAuthBundle.
  3. Security. I have set the security.yml mostly as it is presented in the HWIOAuthBundle (though my routes are using /login pattern, not /connect). Also, the oauth_user_provider is set for my custom service.
