    Is there any way of getting 'archival' i386 version of Lilidog?

  • sleekmason sleekmason modified a comment on discussion Waydog Build

    Yes! The next release will have a Waybar settings dialog to alleviate a lot of these types of issues. I've included a Waybar attachment for any wanting to test the new dialog out. I've also included the new Waybar folder, but the script should pick up the old configuration, and add any missing values. (In fact, please DO try with the old configuration) Just place both scripts in ~/bin to test, and try in a terminal: waybar-icon-toggle dialog This will call the modules script when needed.

    Hi sleekmason, Is there any way to make the sizing of items dynamic? What I'm finding is that some of the items take a lot of horizontal space and if I have enough open windows, everything gets pushed to the right with icons getting pushed off of the screen. Thanks for all your hard work on this!

  • kozimodo kozimodo posted a comment on discussion Waydog Build

    FWIW, Debian testing has labwc 0.9.3. Not the latest release but close. I'm happy with having one or the other, Super + space works for me.

    That's great to hear! Thank you:) I will certainly check it out MangoWC! I'm keeping my eye on a few different compositors. So, Waybar is getting an options dialog in the next release which will do all sorts of neat stuff, including adding variables for some of the modules in ~/.config/style.css so the font/icon size can be properly changed on a per item basis. In any event, if performing an upgrade, always make a backup first as you know, but this will most likely pick up all of your old values,...

    I just have to post and let you know how much I love Waydog. It has been my daily driver for a few weeks now and it has made life much more pleasant. So thank you very much for your hard work on this! I have customized the waybar and all of the desktop configs (especially keybindings) pretty extensively, and so I do worry a bit about difficulties with future upgrades overwriting them. I especially love both Sway and Niri and switch back and forth between them depending on my mood. I was wondering,...

    So the module built correctly and everything seemed good to go? This was as far as I could go on my setup, making sure the module would build, but I don't have your card to work with, so what I can do is offer a couple suggestions moving forward. Any work at this point will need to come from your system. First, I would attempt to figure the rest of what is needed out myself, which shouldn't be too hard but can be daunting if it gets to complex. I would do this by searching google for: failed to start...

    Cool. I'm glad it serves! I tried the Waybar wtype fix in a live session, and for whatever reason, it won't let go of the keys, making every button on the bar into the menu until a right-click on the menu is performed. So far, I'm not coming up with the solution there. The next version of labwc should allow for it. This version is apparently missing labwcctl, which would make this method possible. I may look into building the latest stable version of labwc, as the one in Trixie is apparently missing...

    I have just 1 other question - how do u make it remember the desktop resolution ? like it defaulted to 4K but at 60hz (60hz makes me dizzy). So I lowered the resolution to 1920x1080 because it shows 120hz. Good question! I suppose the first think I would look at would be to see if what we have above works for you, and then if so, if nvidia-settings takes care of that somehow, or if it's even necessary with the new driver. if not, then look in the System Setting from the Configuration menu for the...

  • sleekmason sleekmason posted a comment on discussion Waydog Build

    I know exactly what you are talking about. It throws an extra step in there that can be aggravating. Thank you for bringing it up. I'll need to see if the empty space can be utilized for clicks, but I'm guessing not. Well, we can at least make it better! It looks like with Waybar, we can use wtype to create a button action for the Labwc menu. So probably just make the house icon menu button to use Labwc, and also add a separate keybind, super + space to open the menu as well from anywhere in Labwc....

    FYI, I also installed qt6-wayland which I think was necessary for Wayland compatibility.

  • sleekmason sleekmason posted a comment on discussion Waydog Build

    Nice! :) I just learned a whole bunch here as well, and it sounds like you maybe did some of the same footwork I did to debug. My thinking brought me initially to trying 'qt6ct' to change the theme, which it will, but not those four buttons in Vorta. (just the ones I chose to debug) I then looked at using QSS code to fix the #color, but that was a no go as well. All the other buttons would change. I guess qt6 hadn't caught up to these changes yet. So you saved me the next step and found a decent...

  • kozimodo kozimodo posted a comment on discussion Waydog Build

    Is it possible to right click on an empty space on waybar or use the super key to display the menu? It would be a nice touch because if applications are maximized, the only way is to minimize apps to reveal some desktop real estate.

  • kozimodo kozimodo posted a comment on discussion Waydog Build

    Installed TeXstudio from testing and the updated qt6 packages appears to have fixed this! And updated qt6 dependencies also fixed the vorta buttons!

  • kozimodo kozimodo posted a comment on discussion Waydog Build

    The problem is even worse for TeXstudio. The menu bar is un-navigable. Fortunately, I rarely use the menu bar.

  • kozimodo kozimodo posted a comment on discussion Waydog Build

    I use vorta for backups to my NAS and the GUI's buttons appear as blank white squares. I guess that this is an Xwayland incompatibility since it displays fine on other OSes. Oddly, it displays fine on Gnome which has been Wayland for quite some time now. Any suggestions for workarounds to fix this? Relatedly, it is supposed to autostart but it is not. Does labwc check the .config/autostart folder or do I need to add it to .config/labwc/autostart script? Thanks!

    No worries! It looks like removing or blacklisting the Nouveau driver would be the solution if there are conflicts after reboot. Since you are working from a new install, you could reinstall again doing the same process, this time blacklisting the Nouveau driver before rebooting and making sure any steps needed are included...

  • sleekmason sleekmason posted a comment on discussion Bugs or Problems

    Sorry to hear that. Hopefully we can get it figured out, or someone else has already dealt with the same issue and can give us some insight. One possible cause I can see could be the graphics driver. A few questions may help to narrow it down: Are you still using the default nouveau driver? Have you enabled Picom (transparency)? Have you installed a custom kernel or other software along those lines? After it happens again, post the output of: journalctl -b -1 -p 3 We should see any critical errors...

    Awesome! Thank you for testing:) As for the keybind not working, I would check a couple of things I sometimes forget. Make sure the script is in your $PATH, somewhere, like ~/bin, and making sure to 'reconfigure' labwc, either through the menu or through 'super + r' , or else the new keybind won't be registered. Also make sure the name of the script is the same as is being called. After working on this today for a while, I'm realizing its importance for folks to have the names available for labwc,...

    The new waybar config looks great! But the new keybind is not working for me.

  • kozimodo kozimodo posted a comment on discussion Waydog Build

    Interesting. When I copied the original from /etc/skel/labwc, the keybinds worked again.

  • kozimodo kozimodo posted a comment on discussion Waydog Build

    Will give it a go. Strangely, all the keybinds stopped working for some reason. I did make some changes to rc.xml through the labwc config application and in looking at the diffs, some blank lines were removed and extraneous spaces but other than that, only the icon theme was changed.

    Awesome! Looks like the screen timeout. This is just meant to protect your monitor by shutting the display off after ten minutes. To disable it for Openbox, add to your ~/.config/openbox/autostart somewhere near the top: xset s off xset -dpms Then logout and back in, use 'xset -q' to check the timeout amount, and/or wait 15 minutes or so. Please let me know if this works correctly for you.

    Howdy and welcome! You are seeing a warning from yad because it is being used in Wayland. The warning itself is of no consequence and can be ignored, but should be suppressed anyway as it is unsightly. I'll also be putting out at least one more core update here in a few days to cover the current iteration, and will make sure this fix is added if I can suppress the line. Thank you for letting me know!

    Howdy and welcome! You are seeing a warning from yad because it is being used in Wayland. The warning itself is of no consequence and can be ignored, but should be suppressed anyway as it is unsightly. If wanting to suppress the warning for your own system, open /usr/local/bin/quickinstaller as root and change the line to: x-terminal-emulator -T "Quick Installers" -e bash -c "gksudo bash -c /usr/local/bin/quickinstaller-backend 2>/dev/null; exec bash" I'll also be putting out at least one more core...

    Just discovered the lilidog family. I've been messing around with putting labwc and sway on netinstall trixie for a couple of weeks, great fun. What I see here is incredibly polished. I'm really glad I found it. Minor issue, the Quick Installers script seems to be expecting an X11 session. Here's the output: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Now running apt-update to update your repositories... The Quick Installers dialog will open upon apt-update completion....

    Waydog update 26.01.17 Live username = 'user' - Live password = 'live' Added Wmenu, a Dmenu replacement for Wayland based systems. Wmenu for Waydog starts with a wrapper script (wdmenu) to filter out cruft, open with terminal where applicable, and show user scripts in ~/bin and ~/.local/bin. Use 'super +F3' to activate. This is set up so there is no wait to see entries for items like Snap, which would normally require logging out and back in to see in the main menu. Note that Wmenu will not function...

    New release 26.01.10 for Lilidog, Beardog, and Waydog! Live username = 'user' - Live password = 'live'. Lots of changes all around, with Lilidog and Beardog properly updated, and further development of Waydog with nifty new features. Lilidog/Beardog: Debian point release 13.3 Removed the sourcechanger script using net-select from the welcome script. It has run it's course, and was pretty nifty in Bookworm, but not so much in Trixie. Added a removal log and progress wait bar to the kernel remover....

    New release 25.12.26 Live username = 'user' - Live password = 'live'. Added missing welcome message to Sway on initial login. Added Sway keybinds. 'super +F1' This pulls up a terminal list of every keybind in sway. Rather useful. Fixed an issue with initial login in Sway not running the setup script. This meant that until one logged into Labwc, the theme settings were blank, and only the default showed. Adjusted Sway to float Yad windows so they don't take up the whole screen when opened. Added an...

    In order to add transparency to Waybar, open ~/.config/waybar/style.css and change line 6 from: @define-color base #18252B; to: @define-color base rgba(24, 37, 43, 0.8); /* Allows for transparency. Change the fourth value. Currently set to 20% */ Change the fourth value to whatever transparency amount you like. As shown in the comment, '0.8' for the fourth value = 20% transparency. This method can also be used with specific modules if desired.
