I made a thing - NixOS updates module for Waybar (lemmy.ml)
 

This is my first FOSS code project. If anyone has any constructive suggestions for improvement, please let me know.

Gaming on NixOS ? in c/nix@programming.dev
[–] guttermonk@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 months ago

I did both - I have steam and steam-run in environment.systemPackages and I have packages.steam.enable = true;

Here's my hardware config:

  hardware = {
    bluetooth.enable = true; # enables support for Bluetooth
    bluetooth.powerOnBoot = true; # powers up the default Bluetooth controller on boot
    opengl = {
      enable = true;
      extraPackages = with pkgs; [
        intel-media-driver # LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=iHD
        intel-media-sdk
        intel-vaapi-driver # For older processors. LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=i965
        vaapiIntel
        vaapiVdpau
        libvdpau-va-gl
      ];
    };
    pulseaudio = {
      enable = true;
      support32Bit = true;
      extraConfig = "load-module module-combine-sink";
    };
    xpadneo.enable = true;
  };

It's a 2013 macbook air, which is weird because when I had OSX installed it played Stardew fine.

Just tried GE-Proton-9-9 and the play button goes to "stop" and then right back to "play". I tried launching from terminal using nix-shell and steam-run so I could see the error messages when it crashes. Thanks for looking at your setup to see what was going on.

Apparently, I'm not the only one. https://discourse.nixos.org/t/help-running-stardew-valley-in-nixos/48574

How do you avoid those errors?

Some games don't work, despite what ProtonDB says, such as Stardew Valley.

Is there an image viewer like nsxiv, but with native Wayland support? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] guttermonk@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 months ago

Another okay option I just stumbled on is Viewnior. The only thing it lacks is webp file support.

Thanks for confirming that you're seeing the same thing. Must be a bug.

Ahh that's good to know. I had no idea about libadwaita. Thank you!

I navigated to my screenshot folder in terminal and opened an image using swayimg -r but it wouldn't let me navigate with n or p. I also tried going to my Pictures folder and used swayimg Screenshots/* like this thread suggested, but still no luck.

Unfortunately, --all isn't an option. The following options are available in swayimg:

Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.
  -r, --recursive      read directories recursively
  -o, --order=ORDER    set sort order for image list: none/[alpha]/random
  -s, --scale=SCALE    set initial image scale: [optimal]/fit/width/height/fill/real
  -l, --slideshow      activate slideshow mode on startup
  -f, --fullscreen     show image in full screen mode
  -p, --position=POS   set window position [parent]/X,Y
  -g, --size=SIZE      set window size: [parent]/image/W,H
  -a, --class=NAME     set window class/app_id
  -c, --config=S.K=V   set configuration parameter: section.key=value
  -v, --version        print version info and exit
  -h, --help           print this help and exit

If that let's you flip between images that are in the same folder using arrow keys (or something similar), that would be awesome.

Gwenview looks a little too full featured, but the Gnome Image Viewer (Loupe) works well. No dependencies needed in Nix, and the arrow keys let you flip between different images that are in the same folder. All of the on-screen functionality works (copy, move to trash, zoom in/out, toggle full-screen, etc.), and keyboard shortcuts and gestures work great. The only bug I have to work out is that it doesn't respect the gtk theme I have configured (GTK 2, 3, and 4). Otherwise, seems like a good option.

Is there an image viewer like nsxiv, but with native Wayland support? (codeberg.org)
 

According to this issue, it looks like there are no plans, understandably, for making a version/fork of nsxiv but with native Wayland support.

Any recommendations for a simple image viewer in Hyprland?

Synology Drive debug messages [NixOS, Hyprland] (mynixos.com)
 

Synology drive doesn't start on boot even though I have it in my bash script like all my other startup programs which load fine. I get the following debug messages when I run synology-drive from terminal:

debug.message: Cannot find path by key "user_cloud_station_app_path"
debug.message: Cannot find path by key "user_cloud_station_data_path"
debug.message: Cannot find path by key "user_cloud_station_working_dir_path"
debug.message: Cannot find path by key "user_cloud_station_drive_ui_path"
QApplication: invalid style override passed, ignoring it.
    Available styles: Windows, Fusion

Mynixos.com doesn't say that I need to include anything special in my configuration.nix file for the synology-drive-client. What am I doing wrong? Are these debug message related to why it's not loading on startup?

Does the legacy of AppOutlet live on? (github.com)
 

I noticed the AppOutlet repo has been archived, but I really liked the idea of one store to rule them all (I.e. snaps, appimages, flatpaks, etc. in one place).

Any current recommendations for an alternative?

Anyone migrate from PlayerPro to a FOSS alternative? (play.google.com)
 

Looking for a music player that will do a good job of loading album art. It all looks great in PlayerPro, but I tried Auxio and Aplayer but they didn't do a great job of pulling in the album art. Tracks were also incorrectly lumped together with mixed albums/artists.

Any recommendations?

FOSS Alternative to MakeMKV (www.reddit.com)
 

Looking for a FOSS way to backup my encrypted Blueray disks so I can stream them with Jellyfin and not worry about the disks getting scratched.

Much like the linked post, I hope this thread serves as a snapshot or "state of the industry" as of April 2024.

Anyone working with 345 MHz devices/sensors in home assistant (e.g, 2GIG devices)? (lemmy.ml)
 

I'm in the same boat as this Home Assistant user / Redditor, but it looks like some of the key replies to his question have been deleted.

I moved into a house and it looks like Vivint had rewired the original security system with a 2GIG TAKE-345 wired to wireless converter (transmits on 345 MHz). Can anyone recommend a RTL-SDR dongle that's compatible with HAOS, preferably plug-and-play?

  • Operating System: 12.0

Voice Input Privacy Concerns on GrapheneOS? (lemmy.ml)
 

Any privacy concerns with using the futo-whisper open source voice library?

I was able to add their apk repo to Droidify, but am hesitant to install Futo Voice Input. Although it looks like it integrates nicely with OpenBoard.

The other option is to install Sayboard, which works with the native Graphene keyboard. Although OpenBoard with Futo Voice looks like a more streamlined experience, IMHO.

Any thoughts on privacy here?

Aqara Devices' ZigBee Keeps Dropping. Any Tips? (lemmy.ml)
 

I have an Aqara water leak sensor in my kitchen and weather sensor in my living room. I added them to the ZigBee network while they were in their permanent locations - heard that should help them stay connected. For some reason they keep becoming "unavailable" in Homeassistant. I've readded them four times now.

I have other ZigBee devices from other brands and haven't had any issues with them dropping. My ZigBee dongle is a Sonoff. I've never connected the Aqara devices to any Aqara app, and was also wondering if these get firmware updates. Any ideas why these two Aqara devices keep dropping?

Recommendations for the best, low-heat, GPU with ray-tracing in 2023? (lemmy.ml)
 

I have a Nvidia TitanX in my HTPC, which is known for its high heat output, and it keeps overheating when I play 3D games. The case has two intake fans on one side and two exhaust fans on the other, but lacks ventilation on the top panel. I'm tired of the random shutdowns during game play and was wondering if anyone had any recommemdations for a more efficient GPU.

Best FOSS alternative to Nova Launcher? (lemmy.ml)
 

Would really love a launcher that can format icon shapes so that they're all uniform in shape, like Nova Launcher ...but open source.

Retro quick access on GrapheneOS??? (lemmy.ml)
 

Yo how'd our hommie sideofburritos get old school quick access on GrapheneOS? Is this just an old version? The video's only a year old! So I'm on GOS Android 13 (aka big dumb quick access button purgatory), totally confused and totally jealous. I can only imagine an out of touch board testing a new android version and telling the developers to make the buttons bigger and dumber while they tell their managers "okay, we can do that" while they die a little inside. This is the most egregious design offense committed in the history of AOSP.

Please tell me this can be fixed with System UI Tuner or some other bullshit that doesn't kill my battery life or privacy.
