> the Wayland server This is the core problem I have with Wayland. There is no "Wayland server", just as there are no window managers. It's _just_ a protocol. Wayland has conflated…

I accidentally did that with the original Team Fortress on Quake, and the Mechwarrior 2: Mercenaries CD. I always felt like the track from that CD that went with the `rock` map was…
