I’d just like to interject for a moment…
If it’s better sure, but i just haven’t seen genAI doing anything that’s better than what we already had. I saw some replies talking about neural networks, but i was obviously referring to the newer iteration of LLM slop that we’re seeing now, and that has been nothing but problematic. I don’t think you can blame me for wanting it all to go away when i’ve seen everything around me turn to shit because of this tech. There’s more negatives than positives.
I could probably run it so i might end up trying it if they actually manage to get it playable on pc. I also have a ps5 so i could just buy the game there if i wanted it, but i’m not willing to pay 100 bucks (cause that’s what it costs for the full experience let’s be honest here) for a digital drm game. If they had a disc release i would have probably bought it.
Hmm, i might have to give this a try. One thing i’m wondering though is will this also allow you to have the workspaces numbered on something like waybar? Right now for my niri config i’m just using icons to indicate how many workspaces are open and which one is focused, but i’m not using numbers right now because of the workspaces not being persistent
This is so true it hurts lmao
I had no idea these scripts existed, that’s awesome and i’ll have to take a look at tilemod in particular. I’ve tried niri a bunch of times but similar to you i feel like it’s too easy to lose windows. Not just on the same workspace, but i also wish other workspaces could be numbered so you can keep track of which workspaces have which windows on them. I know you’re supposed to use the overview for that, but i’m still not used to that type of workflow.
Another thing i would like is to have a more dynamic tiler style option where at the very least you can set it to have a window take up the full screen when it’s the only one on the workspace, and then split it side by side when two or more windows are opened. Mangowc’s scrolling layout supports this, and upstream niri could probably add this too, but it looks like this tilemod script can do the same thing.
What does that have to do with AI? We already had tools for that before AI, and they are probably more accurate
For me personally it has gotten to a point where i kinda don’t care either way? I mean i do think more people using it is good, but as long as it does what i need it to do i’ll keep using it regardless. The way i see it even if linux becomes more and more popular, you can still feel quirky if you want by just using a more obscure distro. It still gets you the benefits of using linux, and if linux gets better support due to it’s popularity increasing you still get all the benefits, but at the same time you can also enjoy being part of a smaller niche community that is centered around these more obscure distros.
Don’t have an answer unfortunately, but i do wonder now if i could get my game running in a similar way with a browser token. I don’t play pokemon TCG, but i did like playing this old crusty mmo called Darkorbit, which finally switched from flash to unity like 1 or 2 years ago, but it has the same issue on linux where it can launch just fine and it doesn’t use anti-cheat, but it can’t load the login page. Last time i looked into it i ended up finding the pokemon TCG issue and it seems to be the same problem, where it’s relying on Edge for the login.
Well i’ll be damned, just decided to try getting the game to work again, cause after this post i decided to do some searching once more and it seemed someone found a workaround, but it turns out the workaround isn’t even needed anymore. I wrote a reply in the github gist here explaining the steps i took. I guess i can now play my mmo slop again if i get the itch lol
I was not aware of that repo existing, that’s a pretty cool resource to have. Unfortunately i haven’t tried any of the river window managers yet. My distro only has the old river still and i haven’t bothered packaging anything myself (yet), but i am curious what the experience is like.
Hmm, i don’t know if the qxl error is the cause of this, but i’m pretty sure that’s related to the video settings for your VM. Maybe you could try one of the other options like virtio to see if that works?
Hmm, that does look correct and if it reconfigured without errors it’s probably alright. Another thing you could try is run ls /var/log and see if there’s an entry for gdm. If there is you could cat the log file and see what it says
It’s funny, cause i haven’t had this happen on linux, but i’ve had both audio and network issues on windows 11
I’m not sure if this will work, but what you can try is replacing the %desktop-services with this:
(modify-services %desktop-services
(gdm-service-type config =>
(gdm-configuration
(inherit config)
(wayland? #f))))
I’m not sure if wayland is actually the problem though, especially if gdm was working fine before you swapped to lxqt. Another thing i’m thinking of is maybe lxqt isn’t properly exposing a session file to gdm, and perhaps gdm crashes because it doesn’t find any sessions to start. I think i’ve seen other people adding this session file manually but i would have to look up how it’s done. The thing is i don’t use a DE myself, and i’m using greetd+gtkgreet as a display manager and it just launches me into a tty, and then my bash_profile has a snippet that checks which tty i’m and whether it’s empty, and if it is it launches my wayland compositor of choice.
Well from a glance the config looks fine. I looked at the documentation but there’s not a lot of information on what the lxqt service actually includes. My first guess as to why it drops you to a tty is that perhaps it doesn’t include a display manager.
Edit: actually nevermind, you’re appending to %desktop-services and i’m pretty sure that includes gdm. Maybe the problem lies in gdm trying to use wayland by default. There’s an option to change that, i’ll see if i can find it.
What error are you getting? Does it reconfigure succesfully?
Well i use guix as a full OS but i still have nix installed as well for some packages that aren’t in guix
Meanwhile as a guix+nix user i can just build it against that old library version because nothing can conflict with each other anyway
Hmm, yeah in my case the goal would be to actually speed up compile time of the kernel itself rather than speed improvements at runtime, but it does seem like a pain in the ass and your description makes it sound even worse lol. Nonguix substitution servers are working fine now though, and with my server being set up soon enough, if i the substitution servers are ever down again i can just let it compile everything once and then my other devices can just request it from my own server, so it doesn’t feel worth it to mess around with it anymore. But if i do ever feel like learning more about the kernel i might try it just for the hell of it.
Yeah i think that’s right, i just wanted to confirm that it works with niri when using persistent workspaces, cause i prefer to have them numbered and that’s what i use for my other compositors, but niri has always been an exception because of this issue.
