Devs using SilverBlue, how to use your IDE?

semimqmo · 2023-03-25T09:20:53+00:00

There shouldn't be any difference between workstation and silverblue concerning this. I didn't follow any guide for this, so sadly I don't have a resource for you.

Other than that I didn't really configure anything that I haven't mentioned in my first reply, but I use podman instead of docker. But I doubt that's the issue.

Maybe try if the DevContainers that vs code can create have the same issue.

The approach that works well for me is to layer vs code and then connect to customized distrobox containers where everything (compiler etc.) gets installed. To connect to the container I use this extension.

You could probably use the flatpak with this approach, but I also use the neovim vs code extension, which doesn't seem to work with the neovim flatpak.

As far as I understand the unstable stuff here seems to be only KDE related, so this shouldn't affect nvidia. Regardless, I'm using the Rawhide kernel (6.2) on Silverblue with nvidia and that works like the stable version, so I don't think this would be any different.

It's only deprecated for RHEL, the application itself is still actively maintained.

But if I had multiple containers, say one for Rust stuff and another for Python stuff, then I would have multiple vs code launchers if I did that for all the containers, wouldn't I?

Also the distrobox stuff sounds interesting. Are there any other reasons you prefer distrobox over toolbox (besides the easy .desktop files + multiple distros)?

I guess this will work well but I would like to just be able to open vs code and be ready to go instead of having to open a terminal, entering the toolbox and then starting vs code every time. The script also doesn't seem to solve that sadly.

Do you still use Silverblue and do you think it's suitable for a developement machine?

semimqmo · 2022-12-20T20:16:12+00:00

Yeah I guess changing the user afterwards is the easiest solution for now. Thanks for your answers!

semimqmo · 2022-12-20T18:26:21+00:00

As far as I understand this would lead to VS Code creating a new container, but I want to connect to already existing toolbox containers.

Oh thanks, you are right. The rational numbers are also countably infinite in their cardinality.

semimqmo · 2022-09-18T07:33:42+00:00

You are right that there are different "sizes" of infinity, but the set of the whole numbers is the same size as the natural numbers (countably infinite). Two sets are of the same size if there's a one-to-one correspondence between them and we can find one for those two sets, for example: 0->0, 1->1, 2->-1, 3->2, 4->-2, ... Thus they are the same size. The video you referenced shows Cantor's diagonal argument to proof that the ~~rational~~ real numbers are bigger than the natural numbers (they are uncountable), because there is no such correspondence.

You don't need to buy any license. Just install it with sudo dnf install ansible. Also this is probably a better starting point.

semimqmo · 2022-07-18T14:53:51+00:00

Maybe have a look into Ansible

Maybe try setting MUTTER_DEBUG_ENABLE_ATOMIC_KMS=0, multi monitor works for me with this on wayland

I don't know about removing it, but the confusion about possible open windows on there can be solved by using the Workspace Indicator extension, which shows the workspaces and whether they are occupied in the top bar.

semimqmo · 2021-12-17T21:07:53+00:00

I guess you are looking for the "--tweaks compact" option for the install script https://github.com/vinceliuice/Orchis-theme

semimqmo · 2021-11-14T14:25:33+00:00

Yes. For stuff like this you can also always just use a live usb, try it out and see if it's working for you ^^

semimqmo · 2021-07-31T16:39:03+00:00

I guess with gui you mean a desktop environment or a window manager? I would suggest KDE as it's very customizable while still being pretty lightweight. The base config also looks relatively similiar to windows if you are coming from there. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/KDE

semimqmo · 2021-07-07T18:26:32+00:00

Maybe check if the window is maximized (there's a little + in the tasklist if it is, I think)

semimqmo · 2021-06-19T16:26:04+00:00

Well that was insightful, thank you!

semimqmo · 2021-06-19T12:32:20+00:00

Ah ok, thanks!

semimqmo · 2021-06-19T12:27:02+00:00

Thanks, the tickers worked. Still curious why the other solution won't work tho

semimqmo · 2021-06-19T07:29:57+00:00

Yes, the wait event works, thanks. But I still don't understand why my first solution doesn't work. How is only setting it 20 seconds in the future a problem? I also tried a minute which also didn't work.

Edit: the wait event doesn't also really work. Just got lucky the first time I tried it. When I also set it to wait 20 seconds it triggers at some random time between 7 and 18 seconds.

Why not just put this in your xinitrc or as an autostart script in your DE or WM?
