Sway session not opened
Hi,
I've followed the guide and once sway is installed I attempt to run the GUI but I get these errors:
$ ssh [email protected]

Any idea what's wrong? I understand the GPU is not working and is not tied to the EInk display so it has to be done in software.
It should work if you start sway from the tty, not ssh. It should also be possible to launch from ssh, bit then you need some additional environment variables.
