bkeysI think wayland is going to kill any smaller X11 desktops, and we will get a new generation of desktops00:17
bkeysOnly Gnome and KDE will survive, that is my guess00:17
BoostisbetterI love Wayland though. Best thing to happen for desktop Linux for a while now. 00:21
bkeysI just wish KDE worked properly, I'd be a lot more bummed out if I used a less popular desktop like xfce cause then I'd never get wayland support00:21
bkeysKDE is livable but sometimes I have to reset everything because it decays to the point that it becomes unusable00:22
bkeysDoesn't matter what hardware I use; I have never once had it to a point where it worked even closely as well as it does on X1100:22

Theumanlooking for help with ZZ900003:46
joschTheuman: maybe stick around a bit longer. It's currently 4 AM in the morning Berlin timezone. :)03:58
Theumanok, thx-_-  is #mnt-amiga the correct channel for ZZ9000 help?04:00
joschSorry, i cannot help you more. You likely have to wait for minute to respond. I'm only here because of the MNT Reform and know nothing about the ZZ900004:06
Theumanok thx04:13

bkeysAnd my KDE panel just  disappears06:28
bkeysI'm not against wayland, but this never happens on x1106:29
joschbkeys: but this is not kde-plasma you are running, is it?06:53
bkeysYes it is06:53
joschweird... i've never seen this problem when i used kde-plasma on the reform :(06:54
bkeysI don't think it's a Reform thing I think it's KDE having bugs in their migration to wayland. Which is understandable cause KDE is huge; but I just wonder cause I first heard about wayland I think in 2012 and it's 10 years later and it's still buggy06:55
bkeysI can only imagine how difficult it is to get something as big as KDE moved over; it's just been so long and it's still not stable06:56
bkeysI do wonder how long it will be until wayland provides the same options for everyone in regards to desktop environments that X11 did/does06:56
bkeysI'm no expert in the matter but I do wonder, if wayland is so well designed; then why is it so hard to develop for? Even desktop applications like Godot, or development libraries like Qt have to put up large amounts of effort to support it06:58
joschbkeys: are those problems "random" or could you reproduce them?07:01
bkeysRandom07:01
bkeysBut consistent, it's the same handful of things07:02
bkeysA couple times a week, wayland will bring KDE to it's knees and I'll have to restart everything07:02
bkeysWith the trajectory it has, I think KDE will become stable on Wayland within a couple years. It's livable at the moment, if I used something like XFCE or LXQt I'd be really bummed out by the whole wayland thing. I guess I picked a winning horse07:03
joschis gnome more stable?07:05
bkeysI don't use gnome, I minimize my windows07:05
joschi think most problems i had was with xwayland07:05
joschbkeys: my partner uses gnome with the flashback theme which gets it back to a normal desktop07:06
bkeysBut I have heard gnome works well with wayland; I have even heard accusations that gnome largely being a red hat project that wayland caters to gnome07:06
bkeysIt's not so bad, I can just stick to KDE; it just irks me sometimes. Sometimes it feels like wayland got pushed hard before it was ready07:06
bkeysAt least when the whole systemd thing happened systemd never brought my system to it's knees or caused me any real trouble at all07:07
sknebelotoh, most distros dont default to it yet either? 07:15
bkeysI use Fedora which defaults to it, but x11 is an option07:20
bkeysMost of the decisions they make I agree with; just this one seems rolled out before it was ready. Maybe they wanted people to test it and get more bug reports07:21

dmornI have a friend in Berlin that is coming here next week, I could ask him to pass by..?11:39
minutedmorn: next week is very hectic for us because of HiP. we can send him something in a letter maybe. but my time is really stretched thin and my coworker is ill atm12:08
minutein general, the more independent from us you can be, the better :D12:08
minutebtw i have found a contractor who can solve the u-boot display issue12:09
dmornminute: OK perfect :D I'll checkout if there is any chance to arrange this with him just so I can get the replacement part before holydays to get back my workstation :D12:14

joschyou pay by hour?12:49
joschand thus there will be a "too expensive" if it takes too much effort?12:50
c-keen[m]oh UPS, they mail me a planned delivery date for MONDAY, then complain that they could not meet me TODAY and that they will drop it off in the next UPS Access Point12:54
c-keen[m]this is not how this works12:54
Boostisbetteryeah ups can be shady for sure. to br fair there is a lot of pressure on logistic companies this time of year.14:56
sigridthey sms'd me with 3 choices, I chose to get it from unmanned code-locked boxes on the street right next to me15:03
Boostisbetterso folks, I'm really at a point where I am ready to ditch Windows on my desktop. The issue? The 3090 ti in the system, that I would really like to keep functionality from. 15:56
BoostisbetterI look forward to the day when drivers for gaphics cards will be just as good across all OSes. 15:57
vkoskivI have 2 nvidia GPUs in my arch linux desktop, and things work just fine15:57

minutei have an aluminum pocket reform17:31

minutebkeys: what do you mean?18:33
minutebkeys: ah, i misunderstood your first question18:33
minutethe pocket reform is already working18:33
minuteit just needs a bit of polishing before release/crowdfunding18:34
minutei thought you were askig about the source of the weight.18:34
Boostisbetterminute, really happy to hear that. And I totally understand about the polish bit. The Reform is super polished. It is an amazingly well made product. Really looking forward to Pocket Reform18:39
Boostisbettersorry I will try to limit my gushing over the Pocket to only once a day. 18:39
minutehaha well, i'm happy that you're enjoying it this much18:47
Boostisbetterminute, I got a software project I have been working on (a game) that I am planning on doing a lot of work on through the Pocket. I'm planning on doing a big review writeup document that effort, as kind of like a case study focused on the usefullness of the form factor, etc. 18:51
BoostisbetterSo I'm pumped. 18:51
