So far, I've managed to get out of Phosh, by doing `systemctl disable phosh.service', and rebooting. That got me to a console prompt. I then installed Sway, and tried to run it, which resulted in the message `DRM universal planes unsupported'. I know nothing about Wayland, so I'm stuck. Any help would be appreciated.
I've made progress on Sway/Mobian. I thought that it might be a lack of Mesa (OpenGL) packages, so I installed as many as I could find.  Still no joy. Then for some reason I checked libwayland-egl1-mesa. After installing that, Sway started up very nicely. In portrait mode, alas. Fortunately, the wlr-randr command can fix that (wlr-randr --output DSI-1 --transform 270). I don't know what the minimal fix for Sway is, but this got me going.

You should be able to use a similar approach to install other window managers, as long as they support Wayland.

If any folks from the Mobian project are reading this, I'd suggest adding a wiki page on installing and configuring window managers. postmarketOS offers Sway and Plasma Mobile, there may be other popular ones. (And yes, the page should say “at your own risk, we offer no support”.)

Would you mind writing a quick guide on getting sway going? I would really like to see a desktop environment on the tablet at the moment.
