Do you have the custom-jdk USE flag enabled? Only then Android Studio uses your system JVM. Also when using the system JVM you get multiple warnings about possible graphic errors etc. On my machine it always crashed with custom-jdk, no problems after switching to bundled JVM.


No, it was never enabled.
Meanwhile I switched to flatpak version, because it's regularly updated.
Still, I have to use that export line, otherwise I have issues, I don't mind it, it works, doesn't hurt.

Aye!

Laptops.
Do people use wayfire on laptop? I'm looking for a battery status thingy that would sit on the "status bar". Any tips where to begin searching or building such?

Waybar has a battery spot, not sure about other panels.

This is what I have set up for my acer laptop, put this with a widget that will display the data for a build it yourself solution.
Code:
alias bat="cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state"
alias batp='perl -E "print sprintf(\"%.2f%%\n\", `cat /sys/class/power_supply/BAT1/charge_now`/`cat /sys/class/power_supply/BAT1/charge_full`)"'


Where the stuff is in /proc or /sys would depend on your laptop as they're all different in where they put stuff.

Thanks!

Looks like wf-panel already has battery function, but apparently it's not recognizing the battery of this laptop.
I've create an alias which displays the bat% on cli.

I'll put my rtfm glasses on now and seek information about wf-panel.

Looks like it depends on sys-power/upower.

Edit to add: I opened an issue at the git, letting them know they should have a dependency on upower when battery is chosen.

I think I'm gonna give the waybar a try. The "default" wf-panel of wf-shell is a little too stiff to customization.

Since you, Moose, already introduced me to foot, I think waybar can't be bad either. ;)

The only thing I really liked about wf-shell was the built-in menu.

Waybar doesn't have a menu, though they've discussed it.
So I use fuzzel as a menu, triggered off a key combo in wayfire. It's similar to dmenu run.

But wayfire allows me to make an empty button and attach code to it, I have cpu temp and load, radeon temp/fan, memory, entropy and network on perioodic timers to update. (I prefer text to icons, even though it takes a little more room)

Actually I have 2 bars, the top one is for system data and the bottom one is taskbar, clock/date and another button for music info.
All relatively easy to set up.

I would love for Waybar to have custom thresholds , meaning for custom modules where the output is some numeric value, to change the background color to red or yellow or some other color defined in style.css, depending on the set threshold, functionality is already there for some built-in modules like cpu , memory etc.

Was looking around as I had wondered about this earlier and ran across https://github.com/Bonnee/dotfiles/tree/master/.config/waybar

Portion from styles.css
Code:
#custom-fan {
  border-bottom: 2px solid transparent;
  padding: 0 5px;
  margin: 0 5px;
}

#custom-fan.low {
  color: @color2;
}

#custom-fan.medium {
  color: @color3;
}

#custom-fan.high {
  color: @color1;
}


and from scripts/fan
Code:
#!/usr/bin/env bash

rpm="$(grep speed /proc/acpi/ibm/fan | awk '{print $2}')"

if [ "$rpm" -ne 0 ]; then
  class="low"
  (( $(echo "${rpm}>3490"|bc -l) )) && class="medium"
  (( $(echo "${rpm}>3990"|bc -l) )) && class="high"

  echo ""
  echo "$rpm RPM"
  echo "$class"
fi


and from 13/config
Code:
    "custom/fan": {
      "format": "{}",
      "interval": 10,
      "exec": "$HOME/.config/waybar/scripts/fan"
    },

Got it, thanks, but doesn't work in my case, maybe I'm missing something but this should work, simplified for testing purposes.

styles.css
Code:
#custom-test {
    background-color: #2F4F4F;
}

#custom-test.high {
    background-color: #FFFFFF;
}


scripts/test
Code:
#! /bin/bash

echo "15"
echo "high"


"echo high" should change the background color, but it doesn't, I thought maybe it doesn't work with background-color, but it's the same with color, the output is just 15

Got it eventually, it needed another "echo high" , first echo is text, second is tooltip and third is the class.

@Anon-E-moose, thx again!

Sweet


Naib, as far as menus have you tried fuzzel or bemenu or one of the other menu/app launchers?
I am looking at some old perl packages that output menu data using xdg spots, so that fills in a menu, now I need to find how to display it.

There is at least one project which places freedesktop-like menu on tray. Unfortunately it's X11 based program (written in perl, I think). I think it was menutray..?

Anyway. I prefer to use launchers. freedesktop menu just fills up with crud from programs that are only dependencies of an another program you installed.
For example I have FontForge there from some depency. Guess how many time I've launched it?

Hi all,
Does anyone know how to automatically remember keyboard layout per window? Something similar to x11-misc/kbdd, unfortunately, it does not work in Wayland.
Thanks.

That's why I like fuzzel (app launcher by foot dev) it grabs all the desktop files (easy to make for almost anything) and puts them in a window.
It keeps track of times something is opened and adjusts the menu accordingly.
It is keyboard only (no mouse/touch) but works well, first letter typed starts narrowing down menu items to those that contain the typed input.
I have it set to trigger off on <window meta><f> (wayfire) and "esc" or a selection makes it go away

There's also lavalauncher which gives a panel like box with icons in it, it does not use desktop files or search for executables.
You create a launcher (similar to tint2) that triggers off some program, just attach an icon to it and it's good to go.
I've looked at it, but not used it (no real need for it yet)

Yeah, that was the first thing I looked at.
It will never work with Wayfire, unfortunately, it relies on Sway IPC mechanism which is absent in Wayfire.
I checked swaykbdd source code, it does nothing with xkbcommon, it can't be used even as an example :(

You didn't mention which compositor.

Yeah, wayfire doesn't have an IPC mechanism, though they've talked about it.
Not even sure if wayfire looks at each window the same as sway does, so not sure about "kbdd" per window.

Nice one, thanks for this info, I like it, will replace Wofi with this one.

Nice, blue background, white letters, w/icons and no border 30 lines long
