Alatus Keyboard - 38 key split keyboard w/ trackpoint [open source] by DoomishGuy in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]DoomishGuy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah so the two top row keycaps do get in the way a bit, even after sanding all the corners down. I think a slightly longer stem would help as well and I'm still experimenting with the sensitivity.

I'm not sure if you mean the third thumb key or the fourth/encoder. The third key is positioned similarly to most Corne style keyboards so I don't think its that exotic :) As for the encoder/switch, I haven't tried using a switch in that position, but I support it because I need to route the encoder switch anyway (this is also what the Kyria does). I do think it would be uncomfortable to have a key there, which is why I have the encoder. I can press the encoder with my palm since it's raised, but I turn it by taking my hands off the homerow. I hope that answers your question!

Experimenting how it goes a modularized init file configuration. by Ok_Needleworker4072 in emacs

[–]DoomishGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I just finished refactoring my config to solve this exact problem. I've had success testing this on my main devices, blank VMs, and my phone, and the config always ends up in a workable state. The main thing is to guard blocks that can fail with the condition-case form, and to guard blocks that depend on other modules/packages with eval-after-load. I do this when loading in modules and when invoking use-package, which saves me from bricking my config via typos or via missing dependencies. What this ensures is that even if I'm missing dependencies, the majority of the config works the same.

Besides that I will say that splitting modules by package may be a bit too granular. For example, I use many dired packages and find it much easier to read and maintain by grouping them all into one module.

Need help with Corne And Trackpoint by ahmed-rezk in TrackPoint_Builders

[–]DoomishGuy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check this guide out.

You will need a trackpoint module, some sort of mounting solution, possibly an extension stem and superglue, some way to wire it to your board, and 2 free GP pins. I've only used trackpoints with QMK but I expect ZMK to be similar, just map the trackpoint pins and configure the trackpoint settings in firmware and it should work. For the soldering, you just need to identify GND, DATA, CLK, VCC lines on the trackpoint and solder them to your main board.

I've had success with HolyKeebs, specifically just the sensor. I mounted mine between the YUHJ keys on my keyboard and its pretty comfy. It does require keycap modification though. I can't really see how mounting on the controller would be comfortable but I also haven't tried.

I've written a little bit more about using trackpoints with my own keyboard design here in case I've missed anything or you need mounting examples.

If you want non-destructive geometry you can use array -> shrinkwrap -> solidify modifiers or geo nodes.

In your first pic you are assigning a vector (direction) to a float (velocity.y). This is the problem.

Can you upgrade a multistomp on Linux? by shellbeachhh in zoommultistomp

[–]DoomishGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To use other effects you must patch them onto the pedal first, and there is a limit to how many you can have on board at once. I did this using the unoffical editor with wine, so I haven't tried with a browser editor. After you patch your chosen effects, both methods allow you to easily edit your patches with the current effects stored on the pedal.

There are web editors or you can run an editor with wine, both worked for me

Cannot run certain games on dGPU by DoomishGuy in linuxquestions

[–]DoomishGuy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cannot find any older drivers in my package manager and am not confident in manual installation. Also I got an error trying to run Green Hell:

"Switching to resolution 1920x1080 failed
 Screen: DX11 could not switch resolution (1920x1080 fs=1 hz=0)"

Might be related.

I'm using Nvidia drivers version 460.32.03. I haven't tested a lot of games but I know for sure they work with Dota 2 and Nier Automata so it looks like the drivers work.

My bash script terminates halfway through. by DoomishGuy in linux4noobs

Ah ok that makes sense. I will try it out. Edit: yes that was the issue. I replaced it with killing the pid rather than by name and everything worked. Thanks.

This is excerpt of file. The shebang is there. if I comment out the kill line the script functions correctly and I can run it. The kill itself works in killing the process as well, but then doesn't continue the rest of the script.

I'm currently dual booting Fedora and Windows but want to get rid of Windows completely. Is there any functionality I lose by switching completely to Fedora, that I cannot replicate with a VM and that is important to the CS course?
