xhado you have any ideas what i should do now? just run apt update && apt upgrade again and hope for the best?12:41
xhaok that did not reinstall linux, but apt install --reinstall the linux packages (linux-base,reform-image...,reform-kbuild-thing) worked! whooo! i don't know how i broke it but i am soo glad that it is fixed now!!! :D12:47

staticbunnydoes anyone know17:11
staticbunnyugh17:11
staticbunnydoes anyone know the backend that wayfire uses? Im getting an error no sockets available for seatd17:11
BoostisBetterstaticbunny: by errors do you mean the 3 in blue you see when starting wayfire from greetd? Is this on the pocket?17:43
BoostisBettercan't help you with the backend question. I just know that it is wlroots or something like that based. 17:43
BoostisBetterJust like Sway17:43
grimmwarehey has anyone managed to do audio over hdmi with an rk3588 pocket?17:50
staticbunnyBoostisBetter: yeah but for me sway starts but wayfire doesnt... so im really confused what happened17:52
staticbunnyif that error is always there.. i guess its something else17:53
BoostisBetterFor me, I need to edit the wayfire.ini under .config/ before Wayfire would finally load correctly. 17:54
staticbunnydo you have anything in /etc/envorinment?17:55
staticbunnyi think i need to reinstall wayfire, its starting to look like an actual error from the binary17:58
joschnote, that i'm currently fixing wayfire for wlroots 0.1817:58
staticbunnyok maybe this is that then17:58
+ chomwitt (~chomwitt@2a02:587:7a16:a200:1ac0:4dff:fedb:a3f1)18:03
joschstaticbunny: would you like to test the new wayfire version before i upload?18:03
staticbunnysure18:06
joschstaticbunny: would you like to build the new package from source or do you trust salsa.debian.org with delivering you binaries without a backdoor in them?18:07
staticbunnyim fine with salsa18:08
staticbunnyspicy debian 18:08
joschokay, i'll ping you once i have a link for you18:08
staticbunnycool, pls msg me incase im not around. i can never get scrollback working on tmux18:09
joschhuh never mind, there is no salsa pipeline for wayfire...18:17
staticbunnyi dont mind compiling it if its easier to just send me what ya i need18:24

joschstaticbunny: you'll probably be able to upgrade to a more recent wayland from unstable in about 2 hours: https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=wayfire19:16
staticbunnyjosch: does my error look like its related to wlroots?19:24
staticbunnywithout spamming chat... EE 24-11-24 10:10:04.018 - [render/gles2/renderer.c:804] Could not initialize EGL19:25
staticbunnythats the error before SIGABRT19:25
joschstaticbunny: unfortunately i have little clue about wayfire, i'm not using it19:33
joschthe package is orphaned in debian and is in need of a new maintainer19:33
staticbunnyah man, i wish i knew that19:33
joschif i hadn't done a QA upload, wayfire would get removed19:34
joschat least from testing that is19:34
staticbunnyi wish there was a better way to have "forward knowledge" about things like this. I liked wayfire a little more than sway and was trying to customize it19:35
staticbunnythat just opensource life i guess though. You can't always know the best path to choose till you have tried a few19:36
joschstaticbunny: it is still maintained upstream it seems19:36
joschit just needs somebody in debian who cares19:36
joschif somebody in the reform community cares, i'm here to sponsor your work19:37
staticbunnywhat would it take? keeping dependancies updated and fixing any problems between them?19:37
joschstaticbunny: it's packaging new upstream versions and handling bugs that get reported or found by you19:38
joschand then managing the package in the environment it is in -- in this case it was about handling the wlroots api/abi bump19:39
staticbunnyi'll look into it see if its something i can commit too19:39
joschstaticbunny: if you want to help you could for example help getting this pull request finalized: https://github.com/WayfireWM/wayfire/pull/245219:40
staticbunnyi actually have RK3588's on my turingpi so i could do some test builds there in some sense 19:40
joschthe arch doesn't matter i think19:41
staticbunnyah ok, i always see people complaining about ARM64 support on github because it wasnt available till recently (for github actions)19:42
joschmy biggest headaches these days are with armel and armhf, not with arm64...19:42
staticbunnyha yeah i have a cubox-i4pro19:42
staticbunnyi spent a while with steev from kali getting it working on there. Prob the only person who ever used kali armhf19:43
joschah Steev Klimaszewski i guess? :)19:46
staticbunnyyup thats him. good dude19:51
joschyes and very active19:51
staticbunnyhe would be an awesome resource to have help, but im sure hes already super busy19:52
staticbunnymaybe minute can send him a free reform and be like "wanna help us get kali on it?" ;-p19:53
minutebtw we _might_ replace wayfire with KDE or a lighter weight but more established linux desktop in the future 20:02
minute(like lxqt wayland)20:03
staticbunnyi feel like for people who arent used to tiling wm's there needs to be a toolbar or something20:03
staticbunnybecause im lost trying to create workspaces and all that, etc20:04
minutestaticbunny: yeah20:04
minutestaticbunny: you don't need to create workspaces though, you press super (logo key) + 1, 2, 3, 4 etc just to switch or make a workspace20:05
minuteand super+shift+1,2,3 to move a window to that space20:05
staticbunnythank you, i was trying it but it wasnt working20:06
staticbunnyi wonder if we could add that to reform-tray.py20:06
minutewe're about to finish a new reform-tray with a lot more options and a cheat sheet for the shortcuts20:07
staticbunnydamn, nice. always one step ahead :-D20:08
minuteit also has volume and brightness slider20:09
staticbunnyhave you tried sfwbar?20:11
joschminute: "we're about to finish" as in "i wait with the next reform-tools release"?20:12
josch(nothing super urgent is in the pipe right now, so waiting is no problem)20:12
minutejosch: not that quick!20:15
joschlets just hope wayfire is not still broken20:16
joschi do not have much spare time left for looking into it...20:16
minuteyeah... 20:18
minutewe could also consider labwc20:24
staticbunnythis might be blasphemy but i kinda like sfwbar beter than the default swaybar20:25
minutewe're not using swaybar20:26
minutealso you can of course customize the desktop to your liking!20:27
staticbunnyoh is it waybar? i forget20:27
minuteyes waybar20:27
joschminute: if you have a touch device in the pipeline, maybe it makes sense to try and evaluate gnome vs. phosh vs. plasma for that and make that the sway alternative?20:28
minutejosch: yes. i'm thinking that the way to go is probably sway + kde + gnome now that we have more capable SoCs20:29
minutewe'll customize sway but leave gnome + kde mostly vanilla20:29
staticbunnyyeah both have their pros and cons. I just like the launcher and workspaces in the tray that sfwbar uses. its an easier transition for someone who hasnt used sway20:29
minuteor pick one of kde / gnome as the default to not bloat the system image too much, and offer good instructions to install kde20:29
minutenice, labwc is in debian20:33
minuteinteresting, TIL that valve has a micro-compositor for gaming that can be nested and used to scale games etc https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope20:39
minuteok, i'm giving KDE a spin and this time i'll try to install it via the kde-standard package20:40

joschminute: we discovered the odd behaviour this march: https://mntre.com/reform-irc-logs/2024-03-25.log.html#t17:37:0023:12
joschthe problem is, that even though you specify the branch name, gitlab will give you artifacts from the latest branch with the same top commit23:13
joschthe problem with that is that the latest artifacts from other branches might've been built with different variables23:13
choh great23:13
joschch: that's the reason for forbidding all kinds of customization here: https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-debian-packages/-/blob/main/.gitlab-ci.yml?ref_type=heads#L5223:14

chre gitlab: i should have learned by now that its best not to trust gitlab with anything, but alas23:27
joschthat's why the artifacts of reform-debian-packages have the file variables.sh: https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-debian-packages/-/jobs/6907/artifacts/browse23:34
joschconsumers of those artifacts can then check that the pipeline really was run with the usual variables set to the expected values23:34
joschbecause gitlab provides no way to destinguish between jobs with different variables set23:35
joschstaticbunny: wayfire 0.9.0-3 is in unstable. You can try upgrading to that version and wlroots 0.18 and see what happens23:37
joschit Depends on libwlroots-0.18 (>= 0.18.0) so it should pull in the correct thing if necessary23:37
mhoyejosch: I filed the bug against Cage, but because Cage explicitly says "you need something close to latest" and the debian packages are old, we ended agreeing to close it.23:38
chyeah the $cust setup "solves" this by ignoring gitlab artifacts :>23:41
