XMir's purpose is to provide an X compatibility layer. Mir provides no such compatibility. So, when running XMir on top of Mir, you can run X apps. That's the idea, at least.

Sweet then we will just have to wait for this implementations to happen then. Again I feel that XMIR would have to have some of the same libs that are included with x11 for all the apps to work. I mean you can not just launch a app that needs a lib when the lib is not installed and or can not be installed. I guess that I could build xmir and test this theory out. I will post my findings.JosephOn Mon, Jul 15, 2013 at 12:47 PM, Josh Leverette <coder543@gmail.com> wrote:
android? android is disappearing from within Ubuntu touch. it'll only be used as a driver layer. But yes. the answer to your question is yes. they will run.

I would hope not. But are you sure that that is going to run on a stacked android ? I guess that we will have to wait and see. GTK has nothing to do with this issue as most apps that are in say Kubuntu re wrote in QT. or say something like Mythtv this is wrote in QT also but will not run with out libs that need to be there. these are libs that are x11. I have no clue at all if them libs are in Mir or Xmir TBH.JosephOn Mon, Jul 15, 2013 at 12:38 PM, Zisu Andrei <matzipan@gmail.com> wrote:
That's why XMir exists. Ubuntu wouldn't've bet crazily on Mir just to say "no more backward compatibiltiy!!"--
