There is a long standing issue in #phoc (the #wayland compositor used with #phosh (but as I recently learned also other projects like #bananui) that makes windows flip their size when crossing a screen edge (as tiling is (incorrectly) kicking in). This makes dragging windows around in docked mode harder than necessary.
This is about to improve and (thanks to the ground work over the past months) we can also add some visual feedback:

Afterwards @agx talked about "Logs and Backtraces". He explains how meaningful issue reports look like, what tools you have at your disposal on #MobileLinux and more!
Slides are available at

I was inspired by this talk so much that I freestyled a "Debugging part two" presentation about "debuginfod", a nice tool that you can use to grab debugging symbols over HTTP using the `DEBUGINFOD_URLS` environment variable.
Followed by an small demo of running #phosh nested.

I'm really excited for the next release of geoclue: I have worked with the devs to make it functional with #mobilelinux:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/geoclue/geoclue/-/merge_requests/159
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/geoclue/geoclue/-/merge_requests/155
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/geoclue/geoclue/-/merge_requests/160
and GPS works really well with Pure Maps. This was honestly one of the few things that I have really missed when I left Android.

@agx That's a nice wallpaper you have there! 😉
The cover art needs work on the bluetooth side as we don't send that yet but apart from that it works nicely (skipping songs forwards, backwards, etc).

Flipping the wifi/bt killswitch is sufficient. Here's a short video. The audio quality isn't great but you can hear the switch from speaker to the car's audio:

Ich sitze seit Minuten vor diesem Screenshot, und mir fällt einfach kein guter Kommentar dazu ein. Also hier bitteschön, ohne Worte.

Emacs 29.1 can be built in the PGTK or "pure GTK" configuration -- which doesn't sound that interesting until you realize that:
1) This means you can run Emacs natively under Wayland
2) Emacs looks much more visually consistent on a modern system than it used to
and, most importantly for me,
3) You can now seamlessly use your system language input methods, so, for instance, I can easily type Japanese in Emacs now.
This is a big step in modernizing #emacs .

I love the unique warm, almost analog look of the Librem 5 camera!
The image processor is still a work in progress but I would love it to retain that look in a way or another.

I got #bananui 🍌 , the GUI for #LinuxMobile on feature phones, to work together with #wroomd on a #Nokia2780 with #postmarketOS. It's now almost possible to use it as an actual phone! 📞
UI source code: https://git.abscue.de/obp/bananui/shell
WIP pmaports fork: https://gitlab.com/affenull2345/pmaports/-/tree/nokia-weeknd (currently missing audio for voice calls and kernel packaging)

If you didn't have time today to visit the #MobileLinux #devroom at #FrOSCon today, maybe you can make it tomorrow!
None of the program will be streamed, so come by live and in colour (:
