do i understand correctly that #Wayland doesnt support an independent hyper key the way X does?

so i can still define hyper as super+alt+ctrl+shift, but that means i can no longer define shortcuts for e.g. hyper+shift+something? #Linux

Linux users: are you on Wayland or no 👍👎

es el único editor de vídeo basado en al que le veo algún potencial para su uso en producción en entornos no profesionales.

A ver si la exclusividad de se materializa, pero ya veo a la turba de siempre metiendo mierda en la sección de reporte de errores del repositorio de GitHub, además de que Flowblade todavía no soporta renderización de , ni por CPU ni por GPU. phoronix.com/news/Flowblade-2.

But realy: i like arch+cachy+hyprland a lot and since i work with it, every day it blows my mind and i learn a lot...

OK, now I *really* need to upgrade my #Debian12 #X11 #xfce desktop to #Debian13 #Wayland #KDE 6 Plasma:

With my latest hardware upgrade to 27" 4K TFTs, it's almost impossible for me to use the new TFTs. Everything is tiny small. X11 doesn't have the advanced scaling options I've got with KDE on Wayland.

Well, let's see if I can do it this weekend ...

Cool! I run #Proxmox hypervisor + #Ubuntu/#Debian containers & VMs.

Ran #Kubuntu on my primary PCfor almost five years, then #LinuxMint for two. Tried #Bazzite & settled on on #DebianTrixie #KDE with #X11.

I loved #Bazzite, but couldn't use #Wayland as it prevents #ksnip screenshots.

@BujakiewiczFranco I have to ask about what #xmonad alternatives are you considering (assuming you will switch to #wayland).

Thanks!

It's a great little OS! Only complaint is that it's a little slow to resume from S3 suspend (about 8 seconds), but it does so reliably.

Some intensive processes like opening bloated web pages incur a bit of a hiccup/delay, and I'm not sure why. I know the kernel scheduler is tunable, but I haven't found out how to go about doing that yet.

They're trying to target laptops more, so there's still some work to be done.

Of course, heavy Linux games don't run (haven't been able to get #KerbalSpaceProgram to work on #FreeBSD yet), but simpler linux executables can run (even GUI ones), and the pkg repos are quite exhaustive, about as many binary packages as Debian (around 150k), from my estimation.

No flatpak, no Steam, so binary sources are limited, but there's tons of FOSS software that just runs without trouble.

The handbook (installable as a package or available on the web, both as html and pdf) is quite good, and fairly exhaustive, and to me, the biggest feature of the #BSDs is that they just make sense as an operating system, and aren't a haphazard and ever-changing collection of FOSS parts, like Linux distros are.

FreeBSD does take some manual configuration to get a GUI going, but it's honestly pretty easy, and the handbook tells you exactly what to do. They will have a GUI install screen in the installer soon, so that will become automatic.

I've got it running with #Wayland and the #Sway compositor, almost no issues. For some reason, neither i3status nor waybar have the ability to show Wifi link name and quality, so I developed my own little front-end script for i3status to restore that (I had to do the same thing for #OpenBSD for RAM usage).

I've had to come up with my own way to make sense of memory usage (a script that mimics Linux' free utility) and wifi link quality, but those were fun problems to solve.

After a week or two of hacking around with it and getting all my own scripts and little utilities working with it, it has now become almost completely transparent and gloriously "boring." Basically the same as running Linux for most everything I do. XD

It has fewer pain points than #OpenBSD (which I honestly love as well, don't misinterpret me): a rock solid filesystem (ZFS), and full emoji support (lol priorities, amirite?).

It also has very good full-disk-encryption baked right in, which I'm missing from #NetBSD (but plan on playing with that OS later on as well, because I want to try ALL THE #BSDs! XD )

I agree that Wayland is the future, meanwhile XOrg is the stable present.

I can't see switching back to X11, gonna have to tough this out.

#Wayland #QGIS #cosmic #pop_OS

Running QGIS in a Wayland session will result in a degraded experience due to limitations in the underlying QT library and current versions of the Wayland protocol. It is highly recommended that you switch to a traditional X11 session for an optimal user experience.

Sto litigando con #wayland, #ghostty e il layout tastiera usa intl, ma alla fine l'ho spuntata! Il bello di #linux è che riesci sempre a portarlo dove vuoi tu!

So ive been messing around with dbus trying to make it so my videos play in the corner over minecraft without issue...
That's been complicated.
Basically i right click "always on top" once for an instance of a video player but then when the window is closed and reopened it needs to be redone. So im using dbus to send a signal to the window which is a lot more complicated then it sounds...
With the help of my dad tonight I have round out that Mutter is sorta not installed correctly or something...
And even when I fix everything I'm not sure that its gonna work...
So I think what I need to do that may be more likely to work is to make a javascript web page that keeps the video player open so I just right click it to be always on top once and move it around and resize it as I like...
I think that will work...
Maybe less likely to break my system.
I think I need to open it up and put a second ssd because im running out of space and can't update...

KDE anunció que no seguirán soportando X11 en su entorno Plasma a partir de la versión 6.7. Este movimiento es más que necesario dadas las ventajas técnicas que brinda Wayland sobre X11 en Linux.

The maintainers will package "unless and until Wayland makes so much progress that becomes as obsolete as advocates today say it is." They also consider talking about SonicDE as on-topic in their channels and forum. Please see the announcement at github.com/orgs/Sonic-DE/discu.
