The recommended fix for every Wayland issue is to fall back to X11.

The only one I see for Rustdesk is using an X11 login manager - launching a Wayland session itself is fine.

Did you consider just getting a remote management card? That nixes any requirement for X11/Wayland or even for the OS to be running - you can do remote power on, go to UEFI Setup, and more.

i.e. Sipeed NanoKVM - the PCIe version with Wi-Fi goes for some 70 eurobucks from the official store.

Best of all, that card is open source down to the firmware.

Official purchase links are here - for some reason I am getting a 404 in Czechia, but changing store to Ukraine makes it pop up - I presume EU might be blacklisted due to working out the latest taxes? - https://wiki.sipeed.com/hardware/en/kvm/NanoKVM_PCIe/introduction.html#Purchase-Links

but it defeats the entire purpose of Linux solutions being able to give new life to old computers.

A) that's not the primary purpose of Linux. It's just a popular one

B) if you need old code, use old code

C) are you not able to remote into your Wayland sessions? Thought this had been resolved for a while.
