  1. I’ve figured it out!

    options "grp:shifts_toggle,lv3:ralt_switch,lv5:caps_switch,nbsp:level3,misc:typo"

    lv3:ralt_switch, misc:typo and nbsp:level3 give me a typographic keyboard. And lv5:caps_switch just gives me another button that I use as a keyboard app launcher (ISO_Level5_Shift+F → Firefox).

    Sure, I can't make the tap, hold and double-tap do different things, but now I don't need #kanata (no offense).

  2. First time doing a desktop installation with #voidlinux. This was surprisingly painless.

    Has anybody used Void on an old i5 Intel iMac? Would it work out of the box?

  5. Wednesday, so likely #Brave Browser release and sure enough, 1.93.136 is available. I updated the #voidlinux #voidpackages compatible templates for the original browser and the Origin browser in the abyss-packages repo at codeberg.org/mobinmob/abyss-pa

  8. i have once again entered the void (this time on my laptop 💻)

    also fixed the issue with the missing (appears as white square) cursor 🖱️

    besides needing to reinstall neovim (the package was corrupted initially), it's been excellent!

  9. someone gave me a non functioning m.2 ssd which was labeled as 512GB in size. They said they couldn't get a computer to even boot to bios.

    20 minutes and sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda status=progress bs=4M and I'm now running a fresh install of void linux on it ;-)

    #void-packages #voidlinux #void-linux templates in that repo have been updated today to handle these releases for those using void-packages.

  19. Okay, I have internet trouble. On both my desktop and my laptop, I can connect, to my home wi-fi, but not to any other wi-fi point, including tethering to my phone.

    I suspect this has been an issue since I switched to
    @[email protected] but I haven't confirmed it until today.

    I have NetworkManager installed and launching automatically on boot. In Plasma's tray, I can see the wi-fi icon. I can see many wi-fi networks available to connect to. I can connect to them. But if I connect to any wi-fi network
    except my home router, I am told I am connected and that the data rate is 0 bytes/s download and 0 bytes/s upload.

    Restarting NetworkManager makes no difference, nor does rebooting.

    sudo sv status NetworkManager
    run: NetworkManager: (pid 817) 21678s; run: log: (pid 815) 21678s

  25. Spent about 2 hours switching my laptop to #voidlinux only.to discover, it is currently on the one single version of KDE, that flashbangs you when you snap windows (6.6.3)

    Wanted to switch my PC today, but I guess I'll wait until they move to 6.7

  27. today's #Linux adventures 🐧

    - on my main #Gentoo box, i updated my kernel to the latest available (7.1.5), it was pretty easy but i always feel scared doing it 🙀
    - on my #VoidLinux machine, i installed gnome (although, the cursor is a square for some reason)
    - i had to delete a bunch of files, because my disk ran out of space (discovered when the nvidia-drivers update failed)

    Sin cambios desde la ultima vez,solo algunos ligeros retoques, aun sigo en #VoidLinux con musl.

  35. Okay fedi, I need help using my 8bitdo Ultimate C wired gaming controller on my desktop.

    I recall doing some fiddling a few years ago and I got it to work with Mint. I don't remember what I did. A month ago I tried using it again on Debian and it didn't work. I have now switched to Void, where it also doesn't work.

    Google and DDG results are dominated by discussion of connecting wireless controllers over Bluetooth. Many of them say things like "as a fallback, you can plug your controller in through a USB port and it will work automatically." Except...it doesn't work. My controller is wired only (I don't think it supports bluetooth at all).

    So, let's start with the first test. If I plug my controller into my phone, running stock Android, it works automatically with no configuration required. I tested it with the Android version of
    @[email protected] . So I know the controller itself is not broken.

    According to the
    official instruction manual, when plugging it in to a Raspberry Pi, you must hold 'B' until the controller's light turns on and stays on (not blinking). I do this when plugging it in to my computer. Here's what lsusb shows.

    Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
    Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
    Bus 002 Device 002: ID 046d:082d Logitech, Inc. HD Pro Webcam C920
    Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
    Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
    Bus 004 Device 002: ID 04d9:1702 Holtek Semiconductor, Inc. Keyboard LKS02
    Bus 004 Device 003: ID 2357:0120 TP-Link Archer T2U PLUS [RTL8821AU]
    Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
    Bus 006 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

    Bus 007 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub

    So my computer is able to find the controller. However, it doesn't work, even on games I know it previously worked on when I was on Mint (such as SuperTux).

    In Plasma's system settings, the "game controllers" tab says
    No game controllers found
    Steam likewise does not recognize that I have a controller plugged in.

    8bitdo's website promotes a firmware
    "upgrade tool." I will start by saying I highly doubt it would help me, because
    my controller ran with my system several years ago without any firmware updates.

    Despite my skepticism, I gave it a try anyway. The firmware updater is only for Windows and MacOS, so I tried to run the Windows version in Wine, and I was unsuccessful. I don't know anything about configuring Wine, so I have no idea if there's a way to make it work.

    I also looked to see if 8bitdo makes a firmware updater Android app. They do...but only for wireless controllers.

    So what can I do to get my controller working on my desktop?

    The steps are
    1) Install
    steam-udev-rules
    2) Reboot
    3) When plugging the controller in, hold "X"
    instead of "B" (this is directly contrary to what the instruction manual says).

    Thank you everyone who chimed in!

    Доброго времени суток, федивёрс. Пишу вам по такому вопросу: Хочу немного наладить систему (разграничить системные пакеты от пользовательских, но используя минимум сторонник пакетников).

    В чём суть: Хоть я и являюсь единственным пользователем на своей железке, я иногда не горю желанием кроме обновления системных пакетов обновлять ещё и игры/утилиты и прочее, поэтому появилось желание как-то отделить одно от другого, "то, что нужно системе" от "того, что нужно именно мне", но так, чтобы можно было с меньшим количеством проблем обновить то, что мне нужно.

    Если GUI'шные приложения (по типу GIMP, Steam, Krita, Inkscape и пр.) можно запихать в AppImage в
    ~/Applications, важные для работы системы пакеты — в корень, а что делать мне с cli приложениями, которые нужны мне, но не системе? Стоит ли мне использовать для такого proot и вбивать xbps-<команда> -r <директория-с-локальным-корнем>? А также куда мне помещать игры/приложения, у которых нет ни template, ни AppImage (как пример, какие-нибудь windows игры, утилиты, или папки, имеющие программу и необходимые для неё библмотеки)? Тоже ~/Applications? Или ~/.local/opt/<app-name>? Или пытаться упаковать в AppImage?

    P.S: Flatpak я не исключаю, если что.
    P.P.S: Для установки некоторых библиотек (lua, python, Ruby и пр.) буду использовать соответствующие пакетники, ибо они (щачастую) позволяют в
    local-only.

    Есть ли у кого какие-нибудь идеи как решить такую "проблему"? (Nix не предлагать).

  51. For reasons, I’ve been neglecting to write about what I’ve been doing. I’ll catch up at some point, at least with the more interesting parts. But, ignoring the “why, ” let me at least explain the “what” (you can play detective and figure out the hardware).

    Unsurprisingly, this is #VoidLinux with #niri, #waybar, #mako for notifications, and #fuzzel for the app launcher. Besides browsers and graphics editors, I only have a couple of GUI programs installed.

  52. Debian stable has about 38,000 source packages (as counted by repology (which includes Debian's non-free repositories).

    Void has about 9200 source packages.

    So in switching from Debian to Void, I might have expected many packages I was using to not be available. But it turns out it was the other way around:

    Almost every non-game deb package I deliberately installed is available in Void. The outliers are things I installed and maybe used once before forgetting about them (and one of those exceptions is popcon, which is Debian-specific).

    Conversely, there are a lot of applications I use which I currently get from flatpak or a distrobox container, which are available in Void.

    Note that I specified "non-game apps." It turns out Debian has a
    lot of old FOSS games which have had no upstream maintenance for 15+ years but still work. Void doesn't have very many of those, since Void is a newer distro. If I want to play any of those games, I'll install a Debian distrobox.

    I just gotta get my webcam working and then I will switch my Desktop over to Void.
