this is probably actually the fault of wayland and it’s fragmentation issue. Various wayland compositors have different methods of interacting with them and this includes remote/virtual input. Because of this fragmentation a lot of developers have just started to kinda give up, on wayland.

for this one specifically, I would assume any virtual input would work? there are a couple possible routes forwards, the easiest is probably using XDG’s RemoteDesktop. However not every compositor implements this, Sway will be getting it soon (or already has it using luminous). There are also numerous compositors that don’t support this.

you have wlr-virtual-{pointer,keyboard} which works on sway and mir, and thats it. I believe there was a compositor that could do this over dbus too?

the reality of wayland is, if it’s not in the core protocol, you aren’t guranteed to have support, and if it is in the core protocol, you still arent guranteed to have support, but the chances are better

drwankingstein,

interesting, do you know what they were using for input? if they have an encompassing solution that could be great. if they just use xdg remotedesktop, well thats about what I have now anyways T.T

(Android =/= AOSP)

can you elaborate on this? this is the first i’ve heard this take. rather I would say Android =/= gservices

drwankingstein,

I guess AOSP is barebones, but it’s not like anything is being abandoned that matters, AOSP itself is still alive, kicking, and thriving. Interesting to hear that people consider Android, AOSP + proprietary bits. It’s not something i’ve used myself

drwankingstein,

Typical Gnome dev: Toxic, bashing community, blaming community, calling features that community wants stupid

Also Gnome Dev: Why do we get so much flak?

Oh look, the gnome defense squad has come out.

Gnome devs insulting cosmic devs on the public gnome matrix: nitter.net/jeremy_soller/…/1577061838910390272

Gnome devs slandering S76: …gnome.org/…/system76-how-not-to-collaborate/

Gnome devs calling arch wiki contibs clowns: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/merge_requests/4829

Gnome devs making lying about wayland consensus and calling application broken when they arent: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/217

Ah yes, I for sure “made it up”

drwankingstein,

Right? It’s actually kind of funny how childish they are

Louvre: C++ library for building Wayland compositors. (lemmy.world)

Hello, yesterday I officially released Louvre v1.0.0, a C++ library designed for building Wayland compositors with a primary focus on ease of development. It provides a default method for handling protocols, input events, and rendering, which you can selectively and progressively override as required, allowing you to see a...

ngl Im more interested in the dock and what protocols it uses. I’ve been missing latte dock since I migrated to wayland

drwankingstein,

Ah thats a shame, looks good however

drwankingstein,

Any alternatives? I myself havent seen one so I dunno if there is something to migrate to.

drwankingstein,

much appreciated

drwankingstein,

no idea, I just get it from the github page

drwankingstein,

why so it can break on me because I sneezed wrong? I cant even make a fresh install on windows on my laptop because windows updates will occur, and will brick the device necessitating a reinstall.

drwankingstein,

I don’t know the specifics because quite frankly, I don’t really care. However, an update will happen. This update causes the device to boot loop. Windows Repair does not work, the only solution is to just reinstall a new operating system.

The two hypothesis I have are it’s either installing a bad driver or it’s messing around with BIOS a setting it shouldn’t, which yes Windows can do.

[discussion]: regarding the best OS for a pirate

This post started out as a question, but throughout two days of googling it became this compilation of links. I will tell you everything worth mention that I found, share my plan with you, and expect some critics (for the infos of course, please not for the silly hyperactivity of my ADHD brain over such a trivial matter 🥲)....

drwankingstein,

sounds like a lot of work when you could just install arch or nobara and be done with it

drwankingstein,

I never do the latter anymore. was downloading a pretty rare dvd rip awhile ago I only found after a really long time. download was slow, for about 4 days I was downloading and then seeder went offline and afaik never came back up. now I try to make sure if im the only seed to try and make sure they get priority to decrease the chances of that happening

EDIT: btw props to btdigg, I did eventually find it in some collection thanks to that
