Asunto: [Tails-testers] Call for testing: let's evaluate hardware support of Wayland
Hi,

A future version of Tails will use Wayland instead of X.Org for graphics.
This will fix bugs and allow us to implement accessibility and security improvements.

We need you to help us discover which computers don't work with Wayland.

To do so:

1. Take a computer that works with current Tails.
2. Download a USB image from https://nightly.tails.boum.org/build_Tails_ISO_12213-wayland-force-all-tests/lastSuccessful/archive/build-artifacts/ (that's the file whose name ends with `.img`).
3. Install that USB image to a USB stick, with GNOME Disks or Etcher.
4. Start the computer from that USB stick.
5. If you see the graphical *Welcome Screen* appear, you can stop here. Else, please follow the next steps.
6. Restart on another Linux system that works on this computer. For example, the current Tails release.
7. In the *Welcome Screen*, set an Administration Password.
8. Run these commands in a Terminal:
    ```
    sudo dmidecode -s system-manufacturer
    sudo dmidecode -s system-product-name
    sudo dmidecode -s system-version
    lspci -nn
    ```
9. Copy the output of these commands and send it to us: tails-testers@???. Also describe the symptoms you observed at step 5.


Thanks a lot!
