 Jan Tojnar | it’s because on linux, exec call does not support changing argv[0] for scripts | 17:25:02 |
 hpfr | In reply to @hpfr:matrix.org
Flatpak 1.12 is out, fixing proton for flatpak Steam it also fixes the new steam linux runtime, which may fix native games using it like retroarch, which crashes immediately at present | 18:40:49 |
| Jan Tojnar | generally, flatpak is pretty easy update | 19:31:16 |
 ius | Jan Tojnar: Thanks! I resorted to patching terminator itself, but that looks like the proper solution, I'll give it a go | 20:27:50 |
| hpfr | that's good to hear. the nix package looks quite complicated | 21:12:17 |
| Jan Tojnar | note that the portal is already updated in the gnome pr | 22:21:35 |
| 10 Oct 2021 |
| hpfr | Oh cool, I forgot about that. I was just looking at the flatpak expression which still seems complicated to my eyes 😅 | 16:36:27 |

| Jan Tojnar | GNOME 41 now in master | 21:08:31 |

| Jan Tojnar | hpfr: flatpak update https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/141913 | 16:54:32 |
| Jan Tojnar | yeah, it is moderately involved | 16:55:50 |

 Arian | I want to autostart an app in the GDM greeter. I found https://help.gnome.org/admin/gdm/3.26/configuration.html.en#autostart but is this exposed in NixOS somehow? | 15:12:17 |
| Arian | should I simply add a package to systemPackages with share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow/blah.desktop inside? | 15:12:34 |
| Arian | (I tried that but it didnt work) | 15:13:15 |
| Arian | * should I simply add a package to systemPackages with $out/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow/blah.desktop inside? | 15:13:28 |
| Arian | if you have any pointers that'd be awesome | 15:14:49 |
| Arian | Redacted or Malformed Event | 15:17:01 |
| Arian | maybe gdm is just searching in ${gdm}/share ? | 15:25:35 |
| Arian | * maybe gdm is just searching in ${gdm}/share and that's why it cant find it? | 15:25:42 |
|  fabianhjr joined the room. | 17:03:26 |
| Jan Tojnar | Arian: yeah, looks like the datadir is hardcoded: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gdm/-/blob/358825d4cf08c7e28d7c8364325a6a68649522de/daemon/gdm-launch-environment.c#L957 | 17:38:53 |
| Jan Tojnar | maybe you could start stuff using systemd (e.g. WantedBy=display-manager.service) but not sure if it would work | 17:40:33 |
| Jan Tojnar | probably will depend on what you want to start | 17:40:42 |
| Arian | I want to start an accessibility tool | 17:41:59 |
| Arian | E.g. on screen keyboard | 17:42:07 |
| Arian | (yes I know there are some on the options menu but that list is not configurable I think) | 17:42:33 |
| Arian | * I want to start e.g. an accessibility tool | 17:42:44 |
| Jan Tojnar | I would try to start it with systemd but it probably will not work on Wayland | 17:46:39 |
| Jan Tojnar | or maybe patch gdm to support XDG_DATA_DIRS | 17:47:06 |
 piegames | The first GNOME update with the automatically packaged extensions, how to proceed? So the broad plan is that pkgs.gnomeExtensions always points to a more or less curated and up-to-date extension set that matches pkgs.gnome-shell. Since the merge of GNOME 41, this is not the case anymore. | 21:00:41 |
| piegames | My biggest issue with "simply bumping" is that a lot of extensions don't have declared support for GNOME 41 yet (actually, a lot of extensions I used to use have still not made the bump to | 21:01:43 |
