i like both flatpak and appimage but if i can use a bare elf binary i will always use it, and just keep track of needed libs in system

or ofc packages even deb’s converted to pacman format
Alex 2022-09-03 18:12:58
for the weird obscure software

Hey guys any sway user here? I have issues with xdpw and screensharing. Though it’s the only wlroots based compositor that has thisnproblem for me. I don’t even know if this is related to non systemd distros

ok what do you do before trying to screenshare

I want to identify if you perform two commands which are required before it

Solrac00 2022-09-03 20:32:23
Ok, basically I run dbus-run-session sway. And in my config I have a script that launches pipewire & pipewire-pulse & wireplumber &
wardenunit 2022-09-03 20:33:14
that’s not the commands needed else
wardenunit 2022-09-03 20:34:00
before screensharing run something like that:
/usr/lib/xdg-desktop-portal -r & /usr/lib/xdg-desktop-portal-wlr
wardenunit 2022-09-03 20:34:15
then try
wardenunit 2022-09-03 20:34:50
some permutation of those commands work 100%
Solrac00 2022-09-03 20:35:11
Yeah it works. But idk why I should type this manually 🙁
wardenunit 2022-09-03 20:35:23
I don’t know either
wardenunit 2022-09-03 20:35:31
and this command sometimes does not work
wardenunit 2022-09-03 20:35:46
that’s why I mentioned permutations
Solrac00 2022-09-03 20:36:00
I mean, I also used dwl, the dwm clone for wayland, and it worked perfectly

qontinuum 2022-09-03 14:19:47
Because I am commfortable with X and that I didn’t find any good successor of dwm on Wayland
Actually there is one but it is still a WIP

which one?

Solrac00 2022-09-03 20:36:14
Without these commands

It is

Solrac00 2022-09-03 20:37:03
Btw it’s strange that sway didn’t fix this yet.
wardenunit 2022-09-03 20:37:03
then sway devs are to blame

Yeah xd

Vivarium

Canonical is pure shit in the past 10 years

it’s funny because redhat always win.
upstart vs systemd
snap vs flatpak
unity… well unity sucks 😆

Vivarium

aaah. I’ll check it out

wardenunit 2022-09-03 20:40:21
unity is hardware decelerated
Spektrum_light 2022-09-03 20:42:24
is there a way I can use a nerd font and use caps lock as ctrl in tty? the latter is achieved in nixos but I don’t know how
wardenunit 2022-09-03 20:42:28
grakata_clem 2022-09-03 13:57:55
Until they start to restrict devs and become evil world destroyers like Activision, I don’t mind

I would rename ActiVison to RainbowPanties

wardenunit 2022-09-03 20:42:46
because this describes them precisely and entirely
Solrac00 2022-09-03 20:43:27
wardenunit 2022-09-03 20:37:03
then sway devs are to blame

Btw should I open an issue on githib?
