 ElvishJerricco | Can anyone confirm whether this PR's diagnosis is correct and whether the solution is a good one? It doesn't make sense to me that kwallet would hang in the described scenario, rather than prompt to setup the wallet or something. And I am not qualified to know whether disabling the wallet with /etc/xdg/kwalletrc is a good way to solve that. | 16:57:00 |

| 9lore | Hi, i'd like to get some feedback about a change i'd like to make to the plasma nixos module before i create a pull request. Im not sure wether this is a good idea but i know that there are reasons for wanting a different secret service provider. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/compare/master...ninelore:nixpkgs:kwallet-module | 17:27:54 |
 K900 | Wrong approach | 17:32:46 |
| K900 | kwallet can be configured to proxy to an fdo secrets implementation | 17:32:56 |
| K900 | And the long term plan is to have the daemon only ever do that | 17:33:30 |
| K900 | See https://notmart.org/blog/2026/01/kwallet-secretservice-oo7-the-story-so-far/ | 17:33:37 |
| 9lore | is there a way to do it declaratively? | 17:55:53 |
| K900 | plasma-manager something something | 17:56:12 |

 mr-qubo | Is kde-inhibit broken for you, or is it just for me?
❯ kde-inhibit --power tail -f /dev/zero
Inhibit failed "The name org.freedesktop.PowerManagement.Inhibit was not provided by any .service files"
| 13:47:44 |
| K900 | How are you running it? | 13:48:04 |
| mr-qubo | Oh, wait, it doesn't work from root shell. | 13:48:11 |
| mr-qubo | * Oh, wait, it doesn't work from root shell. Works from user shell. | 13:48:21 |
| mr-qubo | kde-inhibit --power tail -f /dev/zero | 13:48:53 |
| K900 | Well, the root shell part was important, yes | 13:49:12 |
| mr-qubo | Any idea how to make it work? | 13:55:09 |
| K900 | Don't run it as root? | 13:55:34 |
| K900 | It needs to talk to your user session | 13:55:39 |
| mr-qubo | Not an option for me. I need to the command itself as root. | 13:56:23 |
| mr-qubo | * Not an option for me. I need to the command itself as root. And I don't use sudo. | 13:56:44 |

| K900 | Well | 13:58:38 |
| K900 | You can use systemd-inhibit which will take a system wide lock | 13:58:46 |
| K900 | But also, that sounds stupid | 13:58:54 |
| K900 | But also, I guess you can use run0 which you have anyway | 13:59:01 |
| K900 | And you can't get rid of | 13:59:08 |
| mr-qubo | What's the difference with system wide lock, versus what kde-inhibit does? | 14:10:46 |
| mr-qubo | Oh, I didn't know about run0. Looks like something worth reading about. | 14:11:28 |
