At least one for each manufacturer that uses it under the hood in a Tivo-like manner

Sometimes they need to be upset before they realise what they did wrong.

You likely need to tell the uefi software to boot Grub. I can’t remember the command off the top of my head sorry but you basically need to tell it what to boot by default. Then you can let Grub handle the choice of Linux or windows. I just set up a laptop for my sister that behaved that way. No matter what I selected as default in the uefi setup it kept resetting back.

Just looked it up, efibootmgr is the command I think. https://www.linuxbabe.com/command-line/how-to-use-linux-efibootmgr-examples

I’d be happy to find an alternative to Hyprland, but it was the first tiling manager that really clicked for me and (before the community issues came to light) I spent quite some time getting it set to the way I like it. I’d love for a competent fork or similar but it is well beyond my skill level to do that.

Do you have examples of this? Not being contrarian, I actually run Hyprland myself. I’m just curious where the limitations of wlroots have been.

SUSiE

TRANSPARENT TERMINALS! Haha it felt so futuristic and to this day I can’t run a terminal without a little transparency. Enlightenment was my first experience of it.

Now said contributor works a bit more on the project and adds some great new functionality, but floorp don’t agree it fits their plans. So the contributor decides to make their own fork called ceilingp and build from that. Nope, they don’t have the license to do so. They can take the mpl parts. They can take their own parts (they didn’t sign an exclusive release of their code). They can add their own new code. They can’t use the rest of the floorp code though.

So floorp gets the benefits but no one else can build off it without permission (save for private use without releasing it and potentially having others do the same).

Hearing your monitor squeal when you got the modelines wrong was fun.

Currently using gbar in Hyprland as I got a bit overwhelmed trying to learn too many things at once (gbar is very limited but simple to configure). I’ve always been thinking of moving over to a more flexible option like eww though, and this might be a good reason to do so (keeping things consistent).

Which proves the earth is round.

### Multiple binds to one key [](https://wiki.hyprland.org/Configuring/Binds/#multiple-binds-to-one-key)

You can trigger multiple actions with one keybind by assigning multiple binds to one combination, e.g.:

# to switch between windows in a floating workspace
bind = SUPER,Tab,cyclenext,          # change focus to another window
bind = SUPER,Tab,bringactivetotop,   # bring it to the top

The keybinds will be executed in the order they were created. (top to bottom)

That’s just the way you write the rules being deprecated, not the functionality.

There is move left/right within a workspace, move to specific workspace and then move to next/previous workspace (from memory using e+1 as the workspace name in the command but might be misremembering). Admittedly this isn’t exactly the same as what you want; I replied from my mobile and checked when I went back to my desk. I usually use meta/shift/[num] to send to a specific workspace though as I make heavy use of them.

I have workspaces pinned to monitors in Hyprland and have none of the problems you mentioned. I use odd numbers for left screen and even numbers for right.

Edit: just took a look and can’t find mention of the depreciation; where did you read that?

Agreed.

Maybe it could be “Installed size +44.6MB” to clarify without taking too much space.

I absolutely love Hyprland but have no respect for Vaxry beyond his coding ability.

I really hope someone starts a good fork of it, I haven’t found another wm I like as much but I hate to be seen as supporting that awful person.

That brings back memories!

You should take your own advice, okay?

They are not likely to be using the terminal. Pretty much every graphical file browser will ask for confirmation upon delete, and many will use a rubbish bin by default.

Before I had a proper internet connection (had to ask permission to borrow a dial up account) I bought a magazine that had a picture of a cow on it saying that Larry the cow was different. It was a DVD image of the stage one mirror of this new fangled Gentoo thing.

Learnt from the magazine how to install a bootloader and so on and then “bravely” typed emerge world into the terminal after configuring the list of all the packages I wanted. Including a full desktop (KDE I think but may have been Gnome). And Firefox. And Open Office. And some multimedia stuff I don’t remember.

On a Pentium ii.

Took a week before I could do the next step :D
