I don't see
gfx.linux_window_protocolin that crash report. Where should I see it?
I'm not a developer, it would just be useful to see right away if a crash occured on x11, xwayland or wayland.
gfx.linux_window_protocol is not shown in crash reports.
But it can be seen on about:telemetry#search=gfx.linux_window_protocol.
This bug asks for showing gfx.linux_window_protocol in the telemetry tab of a crash report.
If crash reports do not contain full telemetry under the hood, the question would be:
How to tell the crash reporter to include gfx.linux_window_protocol when reporting a crash?

Got it!
So we need to figure out if linux_window_protocol is available in crash reports and if so, where. If not, then we'll need to add it.
I'm pretty overwhelmed with things right now, so I can't get to figuring this out any time soon. I'm going to make it a P5 putting it in the list of interesting things I'm not going to get to. If someone else could figure it out and provide an example crash report, I'd be much obliged.
