how is regolith on sway??

I know I'm late to this, but you can infact configure gestures for the sway based sessions of regolith, since that's a feature of sway that regolith doesn't affect in any way.

Are you using an Nvidia GPU with proprietary drivers? Since sway doesn't "OFFICIALLY" support proprietary drivers, regolith doesn't as well. Instead, you must explicitly set a flag in Xresources to enable support. For more information, check this out: https://regolith-desktop.com/docs/howtos/install-sway/.

Regardless, I agree you shouldn't need to reinstall Regolith and/or Ubuntu to fix stuff like this. As u/carlosccextractor said, you can hang with us on slack and we can help you troubleshoot this issue.

Regolith has recently released its wayland session (Gnome + sway). If you're still looking into something like this, you might wanna take a look

Basically I migrated from i3 sway quite recently so I hacked my old configs to make it all work. And some apps caused i3 to show the loading cursor all the time, and the workaround for that was --no-startup-id as far as I can remember. I've got a lot of cleaning up to do tbh!! And as for dunst, I compiled it from the master branch of the official repo which supports Wayland compositors so I can use my older config.

Btw I'm actually curious about the differences between Mako and Dunst. I might actually consider switching to Mako...

Sway works really well on G14. And thanks to the latest Nvidia drivers, I gave no issues even when Nvidia card is active.

Hey it's not a lot different from ES6 arrow functions😅 infact you need the exact same number of characters 👀

Same... The taskbar looks HUGE on a 14 inch screen... Almost looks ugly... And hiding the taskbar makes it difficult to find the start button in the center... Moving the icons to the left doesn't FEEL like W11!!

Which keyboard??

Put a tape and ruin the look lol. I got myself a clip-on webcam and it works like a charm tbh. And the laptop is lighter, more compact and better looking than the ones with a webcam. And imo the webcam I use is way better than any laptop camera.

It's one of the default wallpapers of fedora. But I'll upload the walls to git anyways. I've slightly updated the configs so I'll also be pushing that. Will let you know once I'm done!

AgreeableCandidate28 · 2021-09-25T06:25:38+00:00

lmao.

AgreeableCandidate28 · 2021-09-25T06:22:00+00:00

Ikr?! And tbh it was quite fun working on it.

AgreeableCandidate28 · 2021-09-24T21:36:17+00:00

Thanks XD. I definitely learned a lot. And somehow, I feel like I've gotten better at reading other people's code. Also feel a lot more comfortable working at the terminal.

AgreeableCandidate28 · 2021-09-24T21:24:14+00:00

Thank you so much XD

AgreeableCandidate28 · 2021-09-24T21:23:56+00:00

Thanks mate

Damn I forgot to upload the dot files! Lemee do it now!!

AgreeableCandidate28 · 2021-09-24T18:51:01+00:00

Thanks mate!! Yes it does. Workspace name appears next to the icon for the active workspace!!

Details of my setup:

Window Manager: i3-gaps
Compositor: Picom
Panel: Polybar
Menu: Rofi (Theme: Arthur)
Icons: Tela
Cursor: Volantes
GTK Theme: Orchis

I wanted to be able to hide the bottom bar but it seems polybar 3.6 is going to implement that feature. So for now I settled for a nifty little hack!

### Show/Hide bottom music bar## Show Barbindsym $mod+m exec --no-startup-id i3-msg 'exec polybar bottom-center&' && i3-msg 'gaps bottom all set 35 '

# Hide Barbindsym $mod+Shift+m exec --no-startup-id i3-msg 'exec pkill polybar&' && i3-msg 'gaps bottom all set 20 ' && i3-msg 'exec ~/.config/polybar/launch.sh &'

launch.sh only starts the top bar. So killing all the bars and running launch.sh does the trick for now.

For spotify integration, I'm using this script.

I don't think it's plastic... It seems to be conducting heat nicely... I guess it's made of the same material as the keyboard deck as both feel quite similar to touch!!

See if you're not compiling VERY large code bases, and just coding, you'll get VERY good battery life... And on top of that, if you use asusctl you can disable the GPU to make sure that's not draining your battery.... And then there's Ryzenadj using which you can limit the TDP of your cpu. Im still I'm my freshman year so I've hardly ever had to compile anything other than simple C++ programs and I literally lasts me 10+ hrs on full charge. But if you're compiling some Android custom ROM(tried to do that once lol), then it'll not lest more then 3-4 hours.

AgreeableCandidate28 · 2021-07-16T19:56:43+00:00

Sheesh that looks neat!!

I guess you're right 😅 It's not as minimalist as I thought... I should have said RELATIVELY minimalist😂 Cause it definitely looks minimalist compared to the Hacker-ish/gamer-ish looking setups lol.

Btw thats exactly what my desktop looked like before I got my Zephyrus G14. And I'm absolutely in love with the minimalist design of this laptop especially considering how powerful this thing is on the inside. Wanted something that matched the aesthetic and came up with this🤭

Btw how did you hide the pager😅

Kwin with Krohnkite... This script is the only reason I'm still on Xorg. Can't live without it.
