git-buildpackage 0.9.31 is out:

lists.sigxcpu.org/pipermail/gi

If you use --upstream-vcs-tag and have projects with repacked tarballs then this release should make this use case simpler (thanks to a patch by Richard Laager). There's some bugfixes as well.

@devrtz @coucouf 0.0.3 doesn't have --skip-download. We want that in stable due to the `--stable` flag. `--skip-download` will be part of 0.0.4: source.puri.sm/Librem5/librem5

@ebassi this will be a great help for allowing to pick some things from the wlr and others from the GNOME portal. Great!

In order for 4k external displays to work well on the Librem 5 the imx8s mainline display stack needs to support TS buffer sharing and DEC400. This needs work in the gpu drivers, kernel display stack drivers and (to a lesser extend) phoc.

The reason phosh already works well in docked mode and for giving presentations is that it isnt' t that noticeable in lower resolutions like lapdocks or presenters.

This is what this point mostly refers to.

@danctnix any idea why that is? There's also gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/m which makes apps launch look slow (as GTK drops the xdg-activation token)

@me @sonny Instead of hand editing desktop files (which will then get out of sync with upstream) you can flag any app as adaptive via

gsettings set sm.puri.phosh force-adaptive "['re.sonny.Tangram.desktop ']"

once more for the peanut gallery

nvidia _choose_ to not support the wayland stack. or well more generally, the new linux kms+egl gpu stack, since there's a lot other cool things you can built on top of it that aren't wayland

nvidia _choose_ to implement crypto locked down fw in a way that blocks open drivers (even apple got this right!). and no one else can fix it, because it's actual real crypto

nvidia _choose_ to not fix any of this

don't buy nvidia if you don't like this

The Call for Proposals for the Debian Reunion Hamburg (wiki.debian.org/DebianEvents/d) closes this Sunday - if you are attending or plan to attend, submit a talk! Anything Free Software related is fine, bonus points for a #debian related talk. The CfP is here: wiki.debian.org/DebianEvents/d

The artwork is by @francois . Sorry for forgetting that yesterday but after 20m of a phone hotline melody my brain melted.

Testing the new merge request to set lockscren wallpapers in while waiting for vodafone's hotline to *please* fix out internet connection (which they fail to do so for seven days in a row now).

@chrichri yay! I usually capture the interesting area using gnome-screenshot in the preview 😃 before pasting into e.g. matrix.

@FOSSingularity@strangeobject.space Did you enable both "Opportunistic word completion" and "Toggle via OSK menu" in phosh-mobile-settings under "Text completion" in the "On Screen keyboard" tab"?

If so try gedit or chatty. Both should enable the completion bar automatically. If you then switch to a language layout (e.g. "German") and phosh-osk-stub doesn't find a matching dictionary it should print an error message to the logs hopefully telling you what's wrong.

@benpocalypse Phosh's landscape isn't much tuned atm as usually you want landscape and fullscreen (e.g. video players, terminals) which works just fine. The keyboard case is a bit different but noone bothered to send patches in that direction so far.

Making the nav bar smaller somewhat helps "by accident" but I'm happy it makes things more usable for the keyboard use case.

@chrichri Yay! Gesichter auch auf dem Telefon verpixelt?

@SheDrivesMobility

Nein, nein, nicht Smartphones sind marktüblich. proprietäre Smartphones mit Google's Android oder Apples iOS sollen angeblich marktüblich sein. Muss halt jeder selber gucken wo seine Daten so bleiben.

Benutzer freier Software, (z.B. ) gucken komplett in die Röhre.

It's all uploaded to octarine already. When it will reach all librem5 phones depends how well it does there and if any issues come up.
