Following the official migration guide of SDL [1], the fb_sdl framebuffer driver was update from SDL1 to SDL2. The sdl2 port in world/src/lib/sdl2 is used. Since SDL1 is in maintenance mode [2], support for other display servers than X11 will never be implemented. In particular, support for Wayland is missing from SDL1. Fortunately, a port of sdl2 is maintained in genode-world. As SDL2 is actively developed, it will provide support for modern hardware architectures, and has mature support for Wayland [3].
