Oh "Vergissmeinnicht", beautiful ("vergiss mich nicht", german for "don't forget me")

I like the fact that Blueprint is being adopted. One step closer to stabelization. (:

I recently started a small project using Blueprint and Python. Still early days; nothing to go into detail, yet.

Can waydroid run on postmarketOS?

I started my niri and waybar config one year ago. Then the laptop died just after I was able to secure what I have done so far. I just havn't found the time to update the config for my desktop. <_<

Finally, niri gets the attention it deserves!

But when will I make the move to it?

[–] poinck@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

Yes. I can confirm, it works even on Gentoo. But I stick to the Flatpak version, anyway, because there I was able to tell it to use Xwayland instead of wayland directly (through Flatseal).

It seems the wayland support isn't great yet and it tries to grab keys combination that are reserved for my window manager (Gnome). In the flatpak sandbox I don't have any issues.

Only game running game detection will not work in the sandbox.

Or is there even a setting to tell it, using the X11 backend so that the keybind issues for the native version go away?

It is cute, isn't it?

The "penguin" on the right is using a lot of LLM ("AI") to get the job done.

I am using it, too. I whish the vim-mode was a bit more complete.

I am using gentoo-sources-6.12 . Idk, how mainline that is. It is pretty upstream with some Gentoo patches, I guess.

To increase the responsiveness of the system I changed the default setting of the scheduler to prioritize user input over system background processes (I don't remember the exact config name in the kernel). Other than that, I compiled it very close to Gentoo handbook recommendations: selecting only what I need and carefully choose between compiling drivers and features as a module or builtin.

 

I am looking for a distro that is based on Gentoo or is heavily inspired by it. I am a long-time Gentoo user and Debian on system where I don't have the time to maintain it. I love the flexibility of Gentoo, but although my hardware keeps up, I find my self often not willing to wait hours for an update on my main machine. I am glad that there are some binary packages for some programs and I use flatpak, too. But even though, updates take too long, time I want to spend using my computer. I thought of going to Debian everywhere, because it is stable and does not move too fast regarding major updates. So, Arch-based distros are no option for me.

Can someone of the community recommend any Gentoo-based distros?
