  • Maybe try wib here and use a rule in your Sway config to toggle it ?

  • Yep I 100% recommend Fuzzel too !

  • Same as a Chimera Linux user I'd definitely recommend trying it. I was a Void user beforee and was Swithering whether to go full BSD when I stumbled across Chimera which gives me the best of both worlds.

  • I was a serious Arch user for 10+ years when I finally decided to give Void a go on an old laptop. Needless to say Iloved it so much that it is now my daily driver. I even had a blip for a month where I thought I missed Arch but nope I just came running back home to Void. Give it a try you won't be disappointed also take a read of this blog Unmasking the hidden gems of Void Linux

  • Have a read of the docs at the zathura git repo or use the man pages.

    https://github.com/pwmt/zathura/blob/develop/doc/configuration/map.rst

  • To get neofetch to display river and not sway make sure that you have either lsof or fuser packages installed and it should display river then. See lines 1902-1903 from this link.

    ZFS Swap on Linux

    One for those running #ZFS on #Linux systems. I realise that you can't have hibernate aka suspend to disk on a swap in the encrypted zpool but if you don't use hibernation then is it OK to use swap using the likes of the command example below to set it up in the encrypted pool?

    I should point out that I'm thinking of switching from my current Void Linux luks lvm setup to Void with fully encrypted zpool and zfsbootmenu on my ThinkPad P14s AMD Gen 1which has 16Gb ram that I may upgrade to 40Gb. It also has a 1Tb nvme.

    zfs create -V "${v_swap_size}G" -b "$(getconf PAGESIZE)" -o compression=zle -o logbias=throughput -o sync=always -o primarycache=metadata -o secondarycache=none -o com.sun:auto-snapshot=false "$v_rpool_name/swap"

    Can't update user avatar

    I have just tried to change my user avatar from my browser and no matter what image format I try to use be it png or jpg it quickly flashes up some json error. I cannot even change it from the Android app.

  • Or if you're running Qtile under Wayland then Qtile is the compositor too. My dotfiles and a screenshot are here to show what's possible.

    https://codeberg.org/JustineSmithies/qtile-wayland-dotfiles

  • You can find out how to install Qtile using pip on the README of my dotfiles link posted above.

  • Yes if you run Qtile with X but not yet under Wayland but that is under discussion by the devs as well as other features.

    Void Linux running the latest Qtile git repo

    Not perfect but it's mine. Dotfiles can be found here. https://codeberg.org/JustineSmithies/qtile-wayland-dotfiles

  • Void Linux user here with Qtile - Wayland as my WM.

  • I'm liking the diy PC case. What's inside if you don't mind me asking ?

  • Thank you and tbh I haven't attempted to run hyprland on void as I used to run it on arch as my daily. Since switching to void I haven't really looked back and don't feel the need for all the bells and whistles.

    Void Linux custom /etc/issue file

    Got bored and made a custom /etc/issue file for my Void Linux machines. It displays a colour Void Linux logo along with kernel version, tty number and date on login. The file is here just copy it to /etc/issue or you can preview it using agetty. Feel free to change it to suit.
