That's kind of back to earlier X window managers, where there where no virtual desktops, but virtual space that could exceed you screen. I'm still missing it |

Last I checked newm wasn't getting any maintenance, but I did just check and this message
Quote: | Unfortunately I no longer have time to spend on this project. So, this repo is currently unmaintained. Check out [newm-atha](https://sr.ht/~atha/newm-atha/) |
Not sure how well it's going, as I wasn't that interested in it.
For those who haven't looked, there's labwc (stacking openbox style compositor) with a new release. (wayland-desktop repo)
It's a pretty solid compositor, I have it as my second compositor, while I use Hyprland mainly.
I run straight wayland, no X and things work well (nvidia is still problematic for many, last I checked) _________________ UM780, 6.1 zen kernel, gcc 13, profile 17.0 (custom bare multilib), openrc, wayland |

Guys, what panel is used on this screenshot of Hyprland?
These circle indicators look amazing

|

I know there are foot users here.
What could be wrong when I cannot type ^ , ~ , ¨ , ´ , ` at the foot terminal?
All those are some accent characters. I can type those characters in vt and in st. _________________ ..: Zucca :..

Inside an editor or at the command line?
I don't have a problem at the command line, and vim doesn't give me problems.
You might be inside of one of foot's command sequences, do man foot and look for keyboard shortcuts _________________ UM780, 6.1 zen kernel, gcc 13, profile 17.0 (custom bare multilib), openrc, wayland |

This happens on every instance of foot and has happened since I needed to do a complete reinstall (because a silly rm -fr / kinda incident). _________________ ..: Zucca :..

Did you recreate .config/foot/foot.ini after the reinstall?
I haven't updated my foot in a while (git version) but it says it 1.15.1, haven't updated to see if things changed.
When you compile foot, are you saving the logs, and have you looked at them to see what it's doing? _________________ UM780, 6.1 zen kernel, gcc 13, profile 17.0 (custom bare multilib), openrc, wayland |

| Yes. that's my global config. I don't have user config.
EDIT:
Oh and well... I think I just dug deep enough: Code: | xkbcommon: ERROR: couldn't find a Compose file for locale "C.UTF8" (mapped to "C.UTF8")
warn: input.c:455: failed to instantiate compose table; dead keys will not work |
It doesn't like my C locale it seems...
Aaaand running Code: | LC_ALL=fi_FI.utf8 foot | fixes the issue. I have locale: | LANG=C.UTF8

LC_TELEPHONE=C.UTF8
LC_MEASUREMENT=fi_FI.utf8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=C.UTF8
LC_ALL= | So I should change one or some of these from C.UTF8 to english or finnish. I think LC_CTYPE is the one...
Yup. It's that one. Yay. Making it gobal then.
Thank you, for making me dig deeper. :D _________________ ..: Zucca :..

Conky now works under wayland (native)
1.19.6 version in gentoo repo mostly works, but the just released 1.19.7 version looks sweet.
Uses layer panel protocol so is a "hidden" window, like wallpaper and *bar. _________________ UM780, 6.1 zen kernel, gcc 13, profile 17.0 (custom bare multilib), openrc, wayland |

Anyone had their sfwbar being ignored by compositor window placement?
I did a big update.
Update went smoothly:Probably two months and more of updates, including python target change.
There was also wayfire and sfwbar update. wayfire: | 2024-04-27T12:53:42 >>> gui-wm/wayfire-0.8.1-r1
2024-07-20T07:01:52 >>> gui-wm/wayfire-0.8.1-r2 |
sfwbar: | 2024-04-27T13:07:33 >>> gui-apps/sfwbar-1.0_beta14
2024-07-20T06:14:01 >>> gui-apps/sfwbar-1.0_beta15 | I suspect that something changed in sfwbar so that now it is floating and windows are placed under it.
I guess I'm pretty alone in this, but just in case someone else has had the same problem... _________________ ..: Zucca :..

I guess I need some GTK special adjustment to make the bar... solid/non-floating.
I currently have these styles applied to the bar element: Code: | window#tint2 {
-GtkWidget-direction: top;
background-color: rgba(0,32,0,0.6);
border-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
-GtkWidget-hexpand: true;
min-height: 32px;
} |

I walked away from hyprland when they started up with the whole hyprlang stuff and their own renderer,
plus I wasn't liking some of the dependencies and I really didn't use much of the gee-whiz effects.
I've gone back to labwc (really starting to look a lot like openbox) with wayfire as a backup. _________________ UM780, 6.1 zen kernel, gcc 13, profile 17.0 (custom bare multilib), openrc, wayland |

And I walked away from sfwbar. Its configuration seemed too complex.
I now use yambar. I have created a "applications menu" there, which will actually launch nwg-bar to display applications with their icons.
The drawbacks?- Many config files for a simple bar
- nwg-bar seems to use webkit-gtk to render stuff -_-
I wonder if it was possible to use something like lavalauncher in place of nwg-bar... I'd need some way to make lavalauncher diappear after click or when mouse cursor leaves the area. _________________ ..: Zucca :..

How do people here have their application tray implemented?
I mean most of the wayland bars don't have tray support. I don't know if it's necessary anymore. I mean I could just write a script for, say, bluetooth status.
So should I even bother with tray? Because I only now notices that I lost tray when I switched to yambar from sfwbar. :D _________________ ..: Zucca :..

waybar supports tray.
I used to use tray for instant knowledge if any message in chats is waiting for my attention |

For me, the only app I regularly use, that could use the tray, is deadbeef, and I could never get it to work well with waybar's tray.
Tray isn't that useful, IMO, there are very few apps that even use it.
I know waybar has a module for bluetooth, I believe that many of the wayland *bars do. _________________ UM780, 6.1 zen kernel, gcc 13, profile 17.0 (custom bare multilib), openrc, wayland |

I use i3bar-river with i3status-rust; that doesn't have a tray though. I don't really use any applications that need the tray. Steam uses the tray but also runs without it. For me, tray isn't useful. |

Latest compositor is labwc, with a backup of wayfire, but I'm still looking at others.
I've looked at dwl (dwm clone dynamic tiling), but prefer a stacking compositor.
Looking at croissant (new, not a lot of features yet, but written by one of the people that work with wayland and wlroots protocols)
uses tags (like dwl, river) instead of workspaces. So I'm learning tags and I do like it overall.
It's also C based which I prefer, as I'm comfortable adding code if needed. Has potential.
