Yes but I refuse to go backward unless I have to. xrandr is read only under Wayland. I found a simpler solution to my problem. The TV has an audio input next to the VGA input that I didn't notice. Of course I'll have to buy a VGA cable since I don't think my son will appreciate losing his monitor cable for the project. Still need to get a software interface running which doesn't need a mouse and keyboard hooked up. EmulationStation has been suggested. I plan on using open source games not emulators but it has "ports" which allows running native applications. Just have to build it under Fedora to test.

It includes both. Gnome just ships with Wayland enabled by default, but you can change that. Not sure how xrandr works under Wayland.

Fedora uses Wayland now. I assume xrandr would no longer apply.

Could you set the resolution with xrandr using a systemd service? Using something like

this seems promising.

Subject: [WLUG] DVI Initial Resolution

I've had the cub scouts build an arcade machine. The TV being used for

display is connected by DVI. Fedora defaults to a resolution the TV

does not support. If I hookup a monitor on the VGA port I can set the

resolution of the second monitor but it switches back to an unsupported

resolution when the second monitor is disconnected. Anyone know how to

force a specific resolution on boot?
