         | This makes me think that socat is exactly what you need to make
         | it work with Xwayland?

         | It's probably exactly the same?

         | I spent hours getting things to work the way they described it:
         | xhost, xauth, Xorg, xserverrc, gdm3/custom.conf, and nothing
         | stuck. I probably did something wrong. I'll add this blog post
         | as a reference to mine.
         | 
         | I really like the socat option though. Other than opening a
         | single TCP/IP port, it doesn't require changes to config files
         | anywhere. I've just updated the blog post to make the UFW
         | config more strict, by only allow TCP requests from the logic
         | analyzer IP address.
         | 
         | BTW, your friend's search engine optimization game is a bit
         | lacking. The title is not very descriptive. ;-)
