Nope, it's fine, I post :slight_smile: instead :wink:

I thought I test if install work and then the user can check for more faults :smiley:

Yay, so since they're now available, I will download them again (hoping it's an improved build) and try them again.

Any idea what the keybinding for nwggrid could be? I can't think of anything that makes sense and doesn't involve having twenty fingers.

Lets see what is in the cheatsheet (oh my...a windows key? Do I have that? Should I uninstall it (lol), please call it superkey or something)
Since wofi is super+d, how about super+shift+d, since both are menus?
Yeah, it does feel (subjectively) fat for a Sway installation, but it's REALLY easy to remove things, right ? (so not a big deal). Plus we all have our quirks, mine is that I can't live w/o VIM for sure (lol), so there will be some mods made.
Edit: It feels fast and lively overall.

I think it should be called linky

(slightly off-topic)
You know...using this environment has finally made me do the little bit of work required to be happy in LibreWolf vs FireFox official. I feel slightly freer as a result.

You're right...sway is missing from the builds. I can't shed any light on it :wink:
Btw, I went ahead and completed the full migration from the pulseaudio daemon to pipewire, any reason that the ISO has a mixture ? In my own experience (not everyone's probably), no issues with pipewire.
And, I still continue to get sway exiting if the first thing I start is a terminal (installed kitty to test that..and yes) . Must be a sway thing, but I haven't seen it before?

The errors show something with IPC and Gtk-layer-shell. I’m not sure what those are but I’ll see if I can provide a solution for you!

(One thing would be using sway-git…if the issue has been fixed upstream!)

Mixture? What pulseaudio specific things are still there. They should conflict so they should be removed automatically…

Don't forget there is another package that pulls in pipewire as a dependency. pulseaudio and pipewire can coexist. Only when installing pipewire-pulse will it conflict with pulseaudio .

Ex.
extra/pulseaudio 14.2-3 (1.2 MiB 6.2 MiB) (Installed)
extra/pipewire 1:0.3.24-1 (1.2 MiB 5.8 MiB) (Installed)

:: pipewire-pulse and pulseaudio are in conflict. Remove pulseaudio? [y/N]


Edit*
had to look it up...```xdg-desktop-portal-wlr``` has pipewire as a dependency.

Well pipewire isnt ready for primetime lets forget about it for some years

Just to clarify, pulseaudio as a daemon was still running.
And regarding the terminal issue...while I would agree that's almost certainly a bug, I would bet $ that it has to do with configuration. Let me create a new user with a blank config and see what happens.
