@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧I tried enabling fwupd on a headless system and it has many GUI dependencies and is pretty big because of that12:08:49
@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧also in my experience only dbx gets updates on almost all of my devices. I had like 3 other updates in 5 years. So support is not that well.12:09:53
@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧but I would be fine to enable it by default in the plasma 6 module12:12:21
@grimmauld:grapevine.grimmauld.deGrimmauld (any/all)it pulls pango/harfbuzz, but that is not what makes the closure large. The problem is the fact it has a runtime dep on GCC via valgrind (i think)12:29:31
@grimmauld:grapevine.grimmauld.deGrimmauld (any/all)i mean i guess modemmanager is somewhat large, but at least on systems with NM that already exists12:31:32

In reply to @emilazy:matrix.org
pretty not good to not have a way to get firmware updated
You still have to trigger the update manually. It doesn't seem like installation of fwupd is the weakest link here.

@lt1379:matrix.orgLunidk if this matters but every time it runs it makes amd dgpus do a fan spin up spindown cycle15:24:05
@lt1379:matrix.orgLun* idk if this matters but every time it runs it makes amd dgpus that were otherwise suspended do a fan spin up spindown cycle15:24:26
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw "it" being the update checking command? I guess it needs to power on the card to read its firmware version. 15:26:42
@lt1379:matrix.orgLunThe scheduled check for updates one (fwupd-refresh?) iirc. It's not really avoidable but it might be an annoyance if it was defaulted on for some laptop users15:28:53
@lt1379:matrix.orgLunwell it is avoidable but it's not fwupd's fault or avoidable on its side, amdgpu needs to be less silly about this and there's been a fix a few times on the list and it's never been applied so this'll presumably stay broken forever15:29:49
@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧I think it would require to create a libnm to make it smaller15:43:39
@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧I only know RedHat which has NM on headless systems...15:43:49
@k900:0upti.meK900 Splitting libnm would be nice actually 15:44:31
@k900:0upti.meK900Because Jovian needs 32 bit libnm15:44:35

@aidalgol:tchncs.de@aidalgol:tchncs.de

I have a python GTK application that is not dark themed. It appears to be using GTK 4.

(process:2118965): Gtk-WARNING **: 16:52:06.282: Unknown key gtk-modules in /home/aidan/.config/gtk-4.0/settings.ini

@aidalgol:tchncs.de@aidalgol:tchncs.deMy Plasma GTK settings seem... wrong.04:59:15
@aidalgol:tchncs.de@aidalgol:tchncs.deIf I click the dropdown menu, there is a single option "Breeze".04:59:38
@aidalgol:tchncs.de@aidalgol:tchncs.deDo I need to add a dark GTK theme package to my system config?05:00:08
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoiswHave there been Qt-related changes in the last staging-next? Nheko now doesn't show replies properly any more and the context menus open in the top left corner.08:02:38
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw(Not really KDE-related, but I figure the folks knowing about Qt are probably here.)08:03:08
@k900:0upti.meK9006.9.2 update08:15:36
@k900:0upti.meK900Not sure how that would break nheko though08:15:44
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoiswThey seem to do cursed shit, it has broken on Qt minor updates before.08:19:19
@k900:0upti.meK900Consider: neochat08:19:43
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoiswIs it better now? Last time it couldn't load more than one or two screenfuls of backlog, even when more was unread.08:21:28
@aloisw:julia0815.dealoisw(Also I guess I could just use Element Web if I need to get comfortable with a new client anyway, at least that doesn't depend on libolm.)08:22:16
