My recent work on mouse and touch pad configuration (https://social.librem.one/@agx/106408337604589298) made it into #phoc 0.8.0 (https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phoc/-/tags/v0.8.0) released by @dos yesterday. Also contained is the idle fix needed for #gtk4 apps (https://social.librem.one/@agx/106551704433480573)

µPlayer 's #flatpak now includes all the needed #gstreamer bits to play #h264 accelerated video on the #librem5 out of the box. This allows for fast 📼 on distros that don't ship #gtk4 or #gstreamer git.

phosh 0.12.0 is out 🚀 : https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh/-/releases/v0.12.0

New features:

- Unblank screen on incoming calls
- encrypted volume mounts via org.Gtk.MountOperationHandler

This release needs either an #gtk3 or #glib patch. See release notes for the details for details, the full list of changes and contributors.

On my quest to land some more pending #phosh merge requests I finally reworked the mode based app filtering (https://social.librem.one/@agx/105004293674500101) so only docked mode shows all apps by default while only adaptive ones are shown in mobile mode.

This can be toggled manually via a button and also disabled completely via a #gsetting . Mobile mode gets more tidy this way (and you can always white list individual apps).

Good news for those using #phosh in docked mode with #mouse or #touchpad: #phoc will soon support configuring those via gnome-control-center (https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phoc/-/merge_requests/251)

I've tagged version 0.9.23 of git-buildpackage (a tool to maintain #Debian packages in #git repositories): https://lists.sigxcpu.org/pipermail/git-buildpackage/2021-June/000411.html

The release improves git-attributes handling and #rpm support.

Thanks to everybody who contributed to this release!

sources are ugly but available https://source.puri.sm/guido.gunther/livi/

Stitched together a small (µ) video player using #gstreamer and #gtk4 to test accelerated #h264 video decoding on the #librem5 using it's #hantro VPU. It gets along with 20% CPU usage when rendering the 15 Mbps jellyfish demo to a #GdkPaintable which is twice as much as the raw `gst-launch-1.0` pipeline (https://social.librem.one/web/statuses/105799071793016596) but not too bad. It also suspends rendering on screen blank and prevent screen lock during playback so just enough for 'on the road battery drain testing'.

org.Gtk.MountOperationHandler support coming to #phosh so you can open encrypted volumes with swipeable, modal dialogs

#gnome #gnomeonmobile @purism

With >150 non-merge commits (~4.5 every day since the last release) this is one of the bigger #phosh releases commit wise.

Zhaofeng Li is working on moving the #phosh session setup to #systemd units https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh/-/merge_requests/824 as modern #gnome-session does.
