@hmenke:matrix.orghmenkeRegarding my lag problem: I downgraded from Kernel 5.11.21 to 5.10.37 and now it seems to be much better. Actually the machine also boot much faster. There seems to be a regression in 5.11.09:18:15
@hmenke:matrix.orghmenkeThere is still some stutter but as far as I can tell this only affects XWayland applications now.14:47:05

@hmenke:matrix.orghmenkeSeems like I just exchanged one problem for another. There is now a weird delay in rendering. I type something in the terminal and it looks like it hangs but in reality the screen is just not refreshed.09:44:40
@hmenke:matrix.orghmenkeWhat is even going on? I'm completely out of ideas. And the worst things is that there is nothing in the journal.09:45:33
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar hmenke: try looking at it in sysprof 09:54:24
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegamesSome GTK applications that I run in Nix ignore my system's settings: No theme, no font settings, and only one button in the top corner. How can I fix them?13:42:57
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegamesI think this has to do with application that are somehow wrapped with custom settings that override my system's, but not surre13:43:17
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegames * I think this has to do with application that are somehow wrapped with custom settings that override my system's, but not sure13:43:19
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarwhat apps? are they GTK3?14:43:19
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar piegames: wrappers do not change values of settings, only the defaults 14:43:54
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegames Jan Tojnar: I get this with Chromium when I enable experimental Wayland support, and with Eclipse. But I also remember running into this with my own GTK application. Other GTK applications are fine, however. 14:46:16
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar piegames: chromium does weird things with theming so I cannot really say 14:47:26
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarand eclipse is java thing so probably still stuck on GTK214:47:44
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarif your app is GTK 3, that would be something we could look into14:48:42

In reply to @jtojnar:matrix.org
and eclipse is java thing so probably still stuck on GTK2
Nope, there's only one eclipse packaging left that still uses GTK2 (eclipse-scala-sdk, which is a weird branch-off Eclipse Oxygen (2017))
14:49:21
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegames Okay, I'll try to reproduce it on my application with proper packaging and then come back (at the moment I'm using a simple shell.nix, so it's not really pure at all) 14:50:07
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnareither way, it is some kind of weird java toolkit thing14:50:09
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarso I am not really familiar with it14:50:26
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar piegames: though, thinking about it, if you are still on old GNOME, that uses different schemas for some font settings 14:57:57
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar(hinting, etc.)14:58:11
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegamesI'm on 3.38 (and currently updating to 40)14:58:35
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan TojnarI do not think it would affect the window buttons or theme, thouhg14:58:38
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegamesSo these things are controlled via gsettings, so I guess some env variable/build sandboxing cuts off that connection, falling back to defaults14:59:24
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnaryou can try running the app with G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all15:00:26
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar * you can try running the app with G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all env var 15:00:37
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarit should at least tell you which gsettings backend is used15:00:53
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar(should be dconf)15:00:59

In reply to @jtojnar:matrix.org
piegames: I think overrides à la haskell’s configuration common would be most convenient
I just had a look at https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/development/haskell-modules/default.nix. You sure about that?
00:37:03
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegames I mean, I'd be a really big gun for that problem … 00:37:14
