@dukethereal assuming your talking about the #librem5: yes, with the right docking station you can have usb, #DisplayPort over #usb-c and PD-charging at the same time.

I got one more change in for GNOME 40: better tab completion in the file manager! It's bothered me for a while now, so I'm especially excited that I got to improve it: https://www.jwestman.net/2021/02/17/files-tab-complete.html
Huge thanks to @antoniof_gnome@twitter.com
for reviewing this just in time for the release!

Receiving MMS on the #librem5 is working now, using #ModemManager and mmsd and #chatty, after some recent fixes including an addition to libqmi to allow sending ack for "transfer route MT" messages, see https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/chatty/-/issues/30 and https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mobile-broadband/ModemManager/-/issues/257 #phosh #UserFreedom #mobile #gnu #linux #freesoftware @purism #gnomeonmobile

#MadeAThing …and a year later @brainblasted finally got it out into the world (Thank You :-) )
Typography is another little “tool-app” from the @gnome Design Tooling Team as a companion to (Colour) Palette offering buttons to copy various css classes/characters you may need in your app/mockup
Along the way we got a couple of gtk4 bugs ironed out, thanks @exalm et al for the help with that
As ever some nice artwork from @tbernard

A friend asked me how to automatically start #GNU #Screen directly via #SSH's configuration file. Here's how to do it:
Add an entry to ~/.ssh/config similar to this one:
Host screen_on_server
Hostname server.example.org
RequestTTY yes
RemoteCommand screen -RD
and then just call
$ ssh screen_on_server
and you'll get connected to an existing screen session if present, otherwise you'll a new new one.
Should work with #tmux, too, maybe different options.
@linmob Are you aware that you can scale #phosh via Settings since 0.8.0? Not fractional but 100% / 200%. It's basically a side effect from the multi monitor setup: https://social.librem.one/@agx/105499360410493591 - necessary GNOME Settings bits are upstream already: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/-/merge_requests/942

The Release Team heats up Debian Bullseye with a soft freeze: https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2021/02/msg00002.html
#phosh 0.8.1 is out 🚀 : https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh/-/releases/v0.8.1
Mostly bug fixes and cleanups this time around from @eliasr , @dos and yours truly.
@debacle the #librem5 user's manual has end users as audience and explains some bits about #phosh https://docs.puri.sm/Librem_5/First_Time_Use.html#using-the-phone-for-the-first-time

I attached a USB-C hub to my laptop dock using a flattened IKEA bracket and some 3M tape. Now I can easily use it and see both screens from my lap. A bit hacky but it works.
@okennedy not sure i understand. gnome-tweaks and Shell extensions are two different thinks AFAIK. There's no plan to make phosh/phoc compatible with GNOME Shell Extensions since they're very specific to the shell intrinsics.
#librem5 docked day4:
- More 'boring' setup for daily work: #mumble, #flatpak
-- `gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.input-sources xkb-options "['compose:caps', 'lv3:ralt_switch']"`
- most remaining papercuts are in #phoc/#phosh around window placement and good defaults
So from now on I'll just update when something changes (for the good or bad)
@dukethereal you can basically forward everything to the #librem5 you'd forward to your laptop (#vnc, #rdp, ...)
#librem5 docked day3:
- nothing too exciting (mail prodding finish up elpa/#emacs config)
- noticed one issue where textures sometimes get corrupted after display power save. Doesn't look like https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/linux-next/-/merge_requests/233 or https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/linux-next/-/merge_requests/249 so needs investigation.
#librem5 docked day 2:
- Move #gpg config over so #nitrokey works on the dock (hello encryted email, package uploads, ...)
- Join #matrix via element until #chatty fully covers it
- Figure out #gssapi smtp in #mutt needs libsasl2-modules-gssapi-mit (so say goodby to the last on disk location that stored account passwords unencrypted)
- unbreak plymouth in #PureOS #Byzantium so it doesn't force meta packages off the system (https://source.puri.sm/pureos/core/plymouth/-/merge_requests/1)
- no crashes so far
