@purism I improved keyboard navigation in a bit so the becomes more fun to use when docked:

@purism Built a simple virtual mouse for using virtual-pointer protocol so i can navigate the pointer on the external screen attached to the without having a physical mouse attached. Useful for e.g. presentations when you only connect a beamer.

@purism This is just a quick hack so far but we can now use 's future 'docked' mode to only display 'adaptive' apps when undocked and all apps when docked based on their desktop file information:

@purism While fixing related issues in , and the kernel for the I wanted things to be more automatic. So can now enable a 'docked' mode on screen plug: windows become moveable automatically (and get their close button back), gets disabled and there's a quick setting that lets you toggle that too:

Switched to (plus some hacks until i have all pakages uploaded) on my . That's way closer and it already works quite well:

Less hacks when driving an external screen with the : you can see how the monitor picks up the video signal when the yellow led on the external screen turns to blue and the external mouse is detected when the cursor appears on 's lock screen in the upper left corner (and yes, i need better video equipment):

@purism …and here's a quick Quake II demo using the docked via usb-c (audio is from L5's built in speaker) - might be a bit more exciting than running (which also works):

@purism And here's the connected to a usb-c hub that has a keyboard/mouse connected via usb and driving the external screen via dp-alt-mode. Needs some hacks still but we're getting there:

A quick hack to wire up the volume buttons in and so music listening becomes more of a breeze on @purism 's :

Our car radio does not do so after fixing up headphone detection in device tree and finishing 's mpris MediaPlayer2 interface i can now feed sound via a 3.5mm audio cable from my l5 to the car radio via and . Will show up on a near you soon.

Missed call notifications coming to on the . With the persistent notifications in can use that to inform about missed calls:

Now that we put some more groundwork into we can start to experiment with gestures in the compositor. It's just a hack so far to see if we're moving in the right direction:

@purism

I've started to update an ancient (and dormant for several years) project of mine that handles prepaid sim cards (check balance, top-up):
honk.sigxcpu.org/piki/projects to work on adaptive :

I really wanted to skip through songs easily on my when carrying it around, so i hacked up a simplistic media player widget for using the protocol (wip code, don't try this at home yet)
