Teven weston now adays starts with a terminal
Nwhich is kinda a big no-no
Nweston is a whole DE at this point
Tcouldnt you invoke the default terminal?
Nsure, but that's a session manager thing
Ti guess so
Nyou're not really meant to run stardust using raw pieces like this, that's just for now
Nthe idea is to put it in a full setup like a DE and run it that way
Nlike telescope
Tfair enough
OBut the builds for everything is currently broken on nix due to not being maintained while the rest of the software was updated, so I'm trying to do one thing at a time until I can get the whole of telescope working again.
Nyeah
Ni get it
Nanyway are you running an existing wayland compositor alongside stardust?
OCurrently I am only running stardust-server and flatland.
Non the whole computer?
Nyou're on a tty?
OOh, no I'm using X11 as my main display server.
Noh
Nthen
OOk. Do you have a good test app that you know supports wayland for that? I'd just run my terminal, but... IDK if it supports wayland
Twhats the terminal?
Tqterm, pytixis, gnome console, konsole, all work, as do a good number others
Oalacritty
SPrismLauncher works great for testing
Salacritty should work too
Nweston clients
Nthey only run on wayland
Tyep i just checked
OOK! The terminal shows up and I can see the window and the control widgets and such, but when I turned on my controllers to try to use it, they didn't show up. Does it not support hotplug?
O(restarted to get it to register controllers) The window is pretty hard to grab and use, or at least unintuitive.
Smonado doesn't support hotplug, you have to turn your controllers on before starting monado
OWhat is the control on the bottom center of the window? I don't see a tool tip or label.
OOh, when will that be fixed?
Sidk, i don't work on monado and idk if that is even something that is being worked on
Nwhat do you mean
Nit's for panel shells, basically you can take 2D apps and put them in different 3D objects to interact differently
OI was expecting to be able to palm-grab to move the window around without resizing it, like I can in resonite, and trying to grab the controls on the corners by pointing an arrow at it which isn't a laser and then doing a grab gesture on the opposite side of the hand was weird. Splitting the difference between a fairly intuitive gesture control of "point at the thing and do a grab gesture to grab it remotely" and "actually grab the thing at the position to grab the thing" with "do a grab gesture at the position, but the active space of the grabbing isn't where the grab gesture occurs but where a pointer indicator is" and it didn't feel good to me.
OWhat's the current story for typing in Stardust like? Do I need to swap back and forth between keyboard and controller like I did in simula before?
Noh shoot i didn't see this
Nhaven't added software keyboards yet, am working on it
Nit's... taking a while
Sis there still any interest in porting the stardust server to bevy? if yes i will try to integrate smithay with bevy
Nyes, somewhat... but idk if i can integrate it well
Salso completely unrelated, is there a reason why you are doing automatic material batching instead of using something like material handles?
Nbecause i want the api to be as simple and render pipeline agnostic as possible and also because i want to batch materials across client instances
Sah, okay, fair enough
NSegl on nvidia strikes again...
Nit's the fence again
