joschgankz: according to an email from march 2023 from newsletters@mntre.com: "For the keycaps, we first experimented with PLA, a biodegradable, recyclable plastic, 3D-printing the caps. However, we weren’t satisfied with the quality of the printed keycaps and looked for other production methods. Since we had worked with the team at FKcaps on the original Reform, we partnered with them again to create 07:36

hramrachgankz: that's about as much tere is, there might be a 3D model in one of the repos10:26
hramrachfrom the look of it the keycaps are about as big at to provide reasonable spacing for the switches to be mounted on the PCB10:28
minutewe had them in our shop https://shop.mntre.com/products/mnt-pocket-reform-keycap-set-100-pieces10:45

joschminute: about your rust+gtk4 firstboot ui -- is there some initial code somewhere? It could be tricky to cross-compile that and I've never set that up before so maybe it'd be useful to have a look to see if and how it works. Thanks!12:44
+ eibachd (~eibachd@2a01:599:310:d40d:e2d0:447d:7714:8c5)12:44
minutejosch: yes! indeed it's tricky to cross compile12:50
minutejosch: https://source.mnt.re/reform/mnt-reform-setup-wizard12:50
joschyou tried already?12:51
joschthe thought just occurred to me when biking to the supermarket and i'd like to see if there are any blockers on that front. I'll have a look, thank you!12:51
aperezdcnot sure how hard would it be to check how they do, but Buildroot can cross-compile Rust packages these days12:52
joschaperezdc: i anticipate the problems to be of the kind that are debian-specific12:53
joschlike in the way how debian cross-compilers are set up and how rust packaging is done in debhelper12:53
aperezdcright, debian stuff :]12:53
aperezdcOTOH, maybe it would be okay to use qemu for cross-building, at least the dependencies would all (most?) be prebuilt from the debian repos12:54
joschaperezdc: that's what we are doing for gobject-introspection stuff already12:54
* sknebel_ -> sknebel12:54
joschbut it's horribly slow, so we'd like to avoid it12:54
minutejosch: the error i got was "warning: gdk-pixbuf-sys@0.19.0: pkg-config has not been configured to support cross-compilation."13:09
minutejosch: then i just compiled it on reform13:09
josch:D13:09
minutejosch: probably would have needed to install/tweak more stuff on the docker image13:09
minutejosch: this is what i tried http://dump.mntmn.com/Dockerfile.aarch64.txt13:11
minutebut i spent only very little time on it13:11
joschthat might just be missing PKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-pkg-config13:12
joschbut i'll check locally and write once i've got it running13:12

sigrid exceptional is plan 9 with cross-arch everything available ootb and building the entire system in under 5 minutes16:14
joschminute: cross-building rust gtk, adwaita, cairo etc is utterly broken in Debian right now16:20
joschminute: essentially, the problem is that all those packages currently depend on "rustc" of the architecture you are building *for* and that is of course incorrect16:20
joschthis can be fixed but it will take some time as it usually does...16:20
joschit primarily depends on the willingness of debian rust maintainers to support cross compilation16:21
joschsigrid: i wish the platform that i'm usually using (gnu/linux) would focus on technical correctness instead of yet another layer of complexity for every problem that is encountered :(16:25
sigridyep. it's pretty sad to see tech stacks of 2024 not being able to be on par with 80s tech in usability16:46

hramrachis gtk4 even usable in any way? I have not seen an application using it so far but from what I heard and seen of gtk3 gtk went downhill since version 217:37
hramrachsteeply17:38
joschwhen i saw other people's computer i found that gnome flashback looked quite good17:38
joschnormal menu, taskbar etc17:39
joschlike it was with original gnome and like it is today with xfce or mate17:39
hramrachbut that 's and extension, and gnome people keep breaking the extension API because they can, right?17:39
hramrachlike Linux people keep breaking the out-of-tree modules because they can, and sometimes because that's what they actually want17:40
hramrachbesides, it's not about gnome this time, it'a about the toolkit, and that's badly broken as well17:41
hramrachQt got ahead of GTK in usability and accessibility .. by doing nothing17:41
hramrachI really liked GTK2 - at its time it was ahead of all competition, arguably even Apple which is big on UX. Wehn applications tarted porting to GTK3 disillusion came.17:47

minutejackhill: yes it does19:46
minutehramrach: gtk4 is pretty good.19:46
joschminute: if you don't mind python, that already works today without all the troubles that rust brings with it on Debian: https://mister-muffin.de/p/GZkS.png19:48
minutejosch: noooo ;___;19:49
hramrachthen try ocaml, that should be easier to port than rust :->19:51
hramrachACTION never wrote a single line of ocaml19:52
joschminute: i also wrote to the debian rust list, so maybe the issue can be resolved easily but i don't know that yet19:52
minutei enjoy learning more and writing rust, i do not enjoy writing python at all19:53
minutei wanted compiled code19:53
minutei will rather set up a native arm build server if that's an issue19:53
joschanother option is to not build this as a .deb at all19:53
joschbut to just copy in the executable that was built somewhere19:54
sigridcould try go as well, considering cross compiling to static executables is super easy and it has bindings for gtk19:54
minuteahhhhhhh19:54
joschand before you set up a native arm server, another option is to use qemu on the existing one19:54
minutei don't want to switch languages, pls stop ;___;19:54
sigridhaha19:54
joschminute: sorry, just wanted to present you with another option for a possible solution19:54
sigridqemu-user is where it's at when cross compiling with rust?19:55
minuterust totally has cross-compilation, the problem is more with gtk4 integration, no?19:55
joschsigrid: according to cross-people, usually, rust crosses just fine19:55
hramrachocaml is compiled ;-)19:56
joschminute: i wrote to the rust ML but it seems my mail is not in the mailman archives yet19:56
joschi can send a link later once it's there19:56
hramrachI can understand not enjoying python19:56
joschminute: sorry for the headache -- it was also a learning experience for me as i never did python+gtk+adwaita before19:58
joschwe will find a solution :)19:59
josch <= afk now for a bit19:59
hramrachis that welcome wizard written in rust published somewhere?19:59
hramrachACTION wonders what the rust gtk bindings look like19:59
minutehramrach: yes, i posted the link earlier20:03
minutejosch: i know you mean well ^^ i'm just a bit stressed out in the last days20:03
