@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarsqueekboard supports "Wayland virtual keyboard protocol" but I am not sure how well supported that is15:08:53
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarespecially since gnome does not support layer-shell15:09:19

@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar piegames: hmm, that is right – though previously, we used to mark incompatible extensions with meta.broken = true so that would have caused similar failures 15:13:34
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarbut then again, mass breaks were not that common15:14:20
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar piegames: but maybe we could have `gnomeExtensions = map markBroken gnome38Extensions // map markBroken gnome40Extensions // gnome41Extensions) 15:17:13

Yep, I'll aim for something like that. Don't bother with 3.38 though, since it's guaranteed to be incompatible. Also I'm a bit conservative on marking extensions as broken, since GNOME nowadays has built-in version checks.

@piegames:matrix.orgpiegamesIs there a reason one needs moderator privileges to invite new users? Would be cool to lift that19:20:44
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarpossibly to reduce spam19:56:25
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnarlooks like it can be changed in permission settings19:58:06
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegamesI've also encountered this on IRC before. It always weirds me out because I can still DM that person and tell them to go into that channel. So nothing's gained20:02:07
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegamesAre the room settings managed globally for the entire Space?20:02:52

hpfr: flatpak update https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/141913
thanks. unfortunately https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-unstable is still behind https://status.nixos.org, which I didn't even think was possible. shouldn't the status page wait until the channel itself actually updates?

@hpfr:matrix.orghpfrapparently that's currently an issue https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-org-configurations/issues/16900:36:47

@ronnypfannschmidt:matrix.orgRonnyis there any recommended way to run a nix system configuration against/in a container for testing it (i'd like to avoid a vm if possilbe)15:26:18

nixos-rebuild build-vm. Then run it
17:30:55
@jonringer:matrix.orgjonringerI know you said avoid, but I don't think you can17:31:57
@jonringer:matrix.orgjonringeras the nixos-configuration includes things like mountpoints from physical discs17:32:17
@ronnypfannschmidt:matrix.orgRonny
In reply to @jonringer:matrix.org
nixos-rebuild build-vm. Then run it
That's literally the thing I asked to avoid?!
17:32:22
@jonringer:matrix.orgjonringeryou said you would like to, but I don't you have other options. You could probably split services into their respective containers, but I don't think the level of abstractions align17:33:06
@jonringer:matrix.orgjonringer * you said you would like to, but I don't think you have other options. You could probably split services into their respective containers, but I don't think the level of abstractions align17:33:57
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegamesWeren't there Nix Docker images?17:36:10
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegamesGoogle also gave me https://github.com/erikarvstedt/extra-container17:36:30
@piegames:matrix.orgpiegames * Google also gave me https://github.com/erikarvstedt/extra-container, might be interesting17:36:36
@hpfr:matrix.orghpfrthe gnome module seems to include nautilus-python but I can't seem to find the option to share files over GSConnect from Nautilus?22:39:33
25 Oct 2021
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan Tojnar hpfr: the module does not actually install nautilus-python, just links some paths so that the plug-in could find scripts 03:54:27
@jtojnar:matrix.orgJan TojnarI am not sure it works, though03:54:40
