Herz uwu | I did manage to add nixGL as an overlay and making nixGLDefault available, but I didn't get the flake to run this way
Only if I nix run --impure the result binary manually with nixgl does it work | 14:11:31 |
K900 | Yeah it's a problem | 14:13:19 |
K900 | That we don't really have a good solution for | 14:13:25 |
K900 | Maybe one day someone will make libcapsule actually usable | 14:14:28 |
aloisw | From a look at the XDG menu specification it seems that the XDG_MENU_PREFIX is indeed supposed to be desktop-specific. Of course this will not help at all the folks building their own mini-desktops out of window managers and helper applications. Maybe the best solution would be to write a minimal flat menu for such use cases. | 14:22:42 |
K900 | Yeah I think that's the way to go if anything | 14:23:51 |
emily | won't work because libc, right? | 15:08:09 |
K900 | I mean theoretically | 15:37:28 |
K900 | If we adjust Mesa and such | 15:37:32 |
K900 | To behave in that situation | 15:37:36 |
emily | to behave when there are two totally different libcs? | 16:07:05 |
emily | that sounds hard | 16:07:06 |
emily | my idea sounds simpler :P | 16:07:17 |
K900 | Which one | 16:09:29 |
emily | well the same "stub libglvnd that talks to host libglvnd" thing for i686 would work for other distros right | 16:11:40 |
K900 | If you do IPC across processes, yes, theoretically | 16:12:22 |
K900 | But that's still significantly slower | 16:12:28 |
emily | it's going to be lower overhead than, like, virgl at least | 16:14:01 |
emily | though also you could just load the two processes in the same address space very far away from each other right. I guess that's what libcapsule tries maybe… | 16:14:26 |
emily | but you wouldn't have to think about weird linker stuff beyond that if it's just single-process "IPC" | 16:15:13 |
emily | maybe. | 16:15:16 |
emily | I guess I am not that convinced about how high the overhead would be because the hot path still ultimately comes down to like, shared memory and a kernel driver. | 16:21:41 |

shapr | Does anyone know how to swap mouse buttons 2 and 8 in KDE? | 17:21:58 |
K900 | I don't think that's a thing that you can natively do | 17:23:57 |
K900 | You can probably do something with inputplumber or similar | 17:24:07 |
shapr | I found busctl --user set-property org.kde.KWin /org/kde/KWin/InputDevice/event5 org.kde.KWin.InputDevice leftHanded b true on https://discuss.kde.org/t/ambidextrous-how-to-write-a-script-to-switch-mouse-buttons/38494/2 but that only shows how to toggle the leftHanded property. I want to explicitly swap two buttons 🤔 | 17:27:46 |
K900 | You can also just set that in the settings | 17:28:47 |
