 ElvishJerricco | so, messages from this room either don't appear or have disappeared for me, depending on which client I access it from. It was suggested to me that this room is split brained and we need to upgrade it somehow. Who knows what to do about that? | 00:08:23 |

 kalbasit | Is there a way to have a udev rule start up a user systemd unit? Anytime I try to su <user> <command> it exits with status 127. | 18:28:24 |
 Roos | That seems odd, what are you trying to achieve ? | 18:29:24 |

| kalbasit | I got myself an ErgoDox keyboard. I want to keep my keyboard layout to Colemak so I can use the internal keyboard at any time. However the ErgoDox requires the keyboard to be set to US as it has its own internal layout system. So I want to automatically switch only the external keyboard to the US layout. I made it work by using a systemd-level unit associated with my User and it makes other assumptions like the location of the Xauthority file and the username... | 18:31:37 |
| kalbasit | My attempt so far: https://github.com/kalbasit/soxincfg/pull/18 | 18:32:16 |
| Roos | You can add a keyboard block to your Xserver config irc. | 18:32:28 |

| kalbasit | hmm I have not tried that. Do you have an example? | 18:33:09 |

| emily | nobody told me all the jokes finally became real | 09:14:40 |
| 27 May 2021 |
| Roos | Not at hand sorry :( | 18:33:23 |

| emily | ask in #matrix-discussion:nixos.org, I think K900 would know | 09:14:56 |

| Roos | Something that came to mind using systemd, is to have a user service bind to the device unit. | 18:33:45 |

| Roos | You can run systemctl list-units to see all systemd units, in particular you can take a look at the platform units (e.g. sys-devices-pci0000:00-0000:00:14.0-usb1-1\x2d10-1\x2d10:1.0-bluetooth-hci0.device). | 18:34:29 |

Something that came to mind using systemd, is to have a user service bind to the device unit. The device changes location as far as I can tell but I can probably find an alias for it. | 18:34:29 |

| nim65s changed their display name from Guilhem to nim65s. | 09:24:19 |

| Roos | You can create a udev rule that creates an alias, yes. | 18:34:53 |

 K900 | This room is likely just split | 09:24:25 |
| K900 | It was never upgraded | 09:24:29 |
| 27 May 2021 |
| kalbasit | hmmm I can't seem to find a unit for it. I did systemctl list-units > /tmp/{a,b} (before/after plugging in my keyboard) and diffed them, nothing new :o | 18:45:03 |
| 11 Apr 2025 |
| K900 | Actually | 09:24:30 |
| 27 May 2021 |
| Roos | Hmm, how about adding an alias in a udev rule? | 18:45:40 |
| 11 Apr 2025 |
| K900 | Let me just do that now | 09:24:32 |
