Grimmauld (any/all) | * I recently started writing nix overlay stacks to drop x11 from my closures completely - my understanding of "wayland-only" changed from that... | 08:44:16 |
Alyssa Ross | I only very rarely use X11 anything. Mostly if I need to get Element out for something. | 08:45:16 |
Alyssa Ross | I don't have Xwayland disabled but easily could, especially because I assume there's a way to make Element use Wayland. | 08:45:43 |
Grimmauld (any/all) | In reply to @qyliss:fairydust.space I don't have Xwayland disabled but easily could, especially because I assume there's a way to make Element use Wayland. Yeah, the nixos ozone wayland env var is what you want for that | 08:53:32 |
uep | yeah, i have that set | 08:54:32 |
uep | these days i'm not sure anything would use xwayland, and I'd like to know about it if it did, but I haven't disabled it | 08:55:15 |
uep | not even for x11 forwarding that I recall using in a long time, mostly waypipe is fine | 08:56:47 |
Grimmauld (any/all) | I run sway with a custom tmux-inspired window switcher. Hitting tab gives me all the into on window/workspace/display, including whether it runs xwayland or xdg_shell. These days steam is the only thing running xwayland. | 09:03:14 |
Grimmauld (any/all) | And freecad, by default - needs freecad-qt6 or freecad-wayland... | 09:04:01 |
jasi 🏳️⚧️ | Isn't Nvidia one of the main reasons for people still on Xorg nowadays? | 15:55:20 |
jasi 🏳️⚧️ | There's no real data on this either so 🥲 | 15:55:46 |
SigmaSquadron | a11y is also a big reason afaik. | 16:45:33 |
jasi 🏳️⚧️ | In reply to @sigmasquadron:matrix.org a11y is also a big reason afaik. Yes, that too, but that's a desktop-agnostic issue, not just related to GNOME | 17:26:23 |
jasi 🏳️⚧️ | I think DIY distributions like NixOS should still offer the xorg session until it's fully deprecated in upstream. | 17:28:24 |
jasi 🏳️⚧️ | It also allows for nixpkgs to alert users of GNOME xorg session removal | 17:28:59 |
jasi 🏳️⚧️ | Since afaik the release notes for 25.05 do not mention this so nixpkgs would be rug-pulling users who do use the xorg session if it were to happen in 25.11 | 17:31:59 |
jasi 🏳️⚧️ | I also believe that plasma 6 still allows users to explicitly select the xorg session. | 17:32:48 |
jasi 🏳️⚧️ | That's just my thoughts | 17:34:06 |
Alyssa Ross | I don't believe the release notes are expected to predict every breaking change that will happen in the following release. That's what that release's notes are for. | 17:34:14 |
SigmaSquadron | In reply to @normalcea:matrix.org I also believe that plasma 6 still allows users to explicitly select the xorg session. since plasma 6.4, that's only possible if kwin-x11 is installed, otherwise the session is broken. | 17:34:30 |
SigmaSquadron | but it's still installed by default until upstream KDE tells distros to stop shipping it, which will only happen in Plasma 7. | 17:35:22 |
jasi 🏳️⚧️ | In reply to @sigmasquadron:matrix.org since plasma 6.4, that's only possible if kwin-x11 is installed, otherwise the session is broken. I see | 17:35:52 |

Andrew | Good news: I finally faced this issue again. Bad news: idk which extension it is: burn-my-windows , compiz-windows-effect . | 16:07:56 |
Andrew | I also don't know if there are any other ones that are bad. | 16:18:30 |
Andrew | * I also don't know if there are any other ones that are bad. But at least I got something after all this time. | 16:18:44 |
K900 | Well turn them off one by one and see? | 16:34:09 |
Leonardo Santiago | hi | 17:19:13 |
Leonardo Santiago | for some reason the default gnome keyring is not unlocking on login, neither by password nor by fingerprint (and the password should be the same as the login one) | 17:19:57 |
Leonardo Santiago | it does do it on my desktop, but on my laptop it does not | 17:20:17 |
