I'd like to install PMOS onto my Fairphone 5, because TWRP recently became available for it. However, the comments and post above this Reddit comment appear to demonstrate that the PMOS installer might overwrite all partitions (A and B, but also Recovery), if I've understood it correctly.

Has anyone used both together? If so, can you confirm whether it functions (as expected)?

After researching why current consumer and embedded ARM (and, to a lesser extent, embedded RISC-V) devices are difficult to port to, the primary reason appears to be device discovery and driver support.

Obviously, extracting proprietary drivers from a potentially outdated AOSP-based OS version with a probably quite outdated kernel and getting that to run in mainline is a lot of work.

However, getting device trees shouldn't be, and really shouldn't be necessary, since they're not something that a manufacturer would hope close to their chest, unlike complex driver software.

Consequently, I would like to request to Fairphone – considering their mission statement – that they provide device trees and enumerable busses (if they don't) but would like to verify here that I wouldn't look like a moron asking for the wrong thing.

I hope this makes sense.

A few weeks ago, VSCode began to constantly recreate tabs. Notably, they are always considered to have been modified, so I have to confirm their closure.

I initially thought that the undermentioned log might be the cause:

2024-07-10 13:50:43.340 [error] Unhandled method getIdAtPosition: Error: Unhandled method getIdAtPosition

    at process.callbackTrampoline (node:internal/async_hooks:128:24)

...because another entry appeared to always occur each time I closed one of these tabs. However, it stopped appearing today, so I'm a loss for the cause.

The attached URI is this video, which depicts the reappearance of the tabs. The attached image depicts multiple entries of the aforementioned log.

As https://github.com/orgs/PrismLauncher/discussions/2550#discussion-6847972 explains, I'm trying to debug https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/random-indefinite-system-hang-and-crash/110020/1#related-issues-3 using flatpak run --command=sh --devel org.prismlauncher.PrismLauncher and gdb /app/bin/prismrun. However, so that I can ensure that its environment matches mine, and so that I don't have to do an absurd amount of configuration each time I try to debug, I'd like to not have it create an entirely new userdata storage each time I debug.

Having ascertained https://discuss.kde.org/t/how-to-capture-a-screenshot-in-plasma-mobile/15070/2?u=rokejulianlockhart, I'd like to be able to transfer screenshots off my Plasma Mobile device.

  1. I try to access it via KDE Plasma 6's Disks & Devices plasmoid (widget):

    Screenshot_20240505_041647|460x450

  2. However, all I see is:

    Screenshot_20240505_041605|689x170

Weirdly, it's acting like https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=486594#c0.

I ask because I'd like to upload screenshots to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1895116#c1, and ascertain whether it affects https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/webflash/-/issues/2#note_1892953259.

I used it yesterday, via Pidgin. I'm [email protected]. Why else would I have referenced it? Don't tell me what I've done. That's not a way to have productive conversations.

Regardless, I can't provide any more technical insight than that - I know solely that the clients provide so much more functionality that irrespective of the protocol, it's better in practice. Fedora, openSUSE, the Bundeswehr, NATO, and Beeper - all chose Matrix over XMPP, not least partially because of Element (which they also all chose).

[-] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Yeah, my experience with Element and a Matrix.org account is that it's sluggish. However, it's been better at Beeper, so I'm uncertain whether it's intrinsic to Matrix or merely Matrix.org and/or Element's servers.

I wish FreeDesktop would standardize CLIs taking their application colours from the user theme so that colourblindness is catered for.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

Why is that preferable over Matrix?

The navigation bar disappearing and the mobile data connection needing manual re-enablement affects me too. I don't think anyone has posted about them on the forum yet, though.

If only CalyxOS supported the Google Play Store, I would use that.

exFAT supports R&W between approximately Linux 3+, Windows 8+, and Android 13+. It should also support macOS. NTFS is significantly more reliable and functional, but only supports R&W on specific Android apps, is read-only on macOS, but is perfectly usable on new versions of Linux, and Windows 7+.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I can see 34, yet can't see them.

I use OpenSUSE, because it has YaST, which is basically the Control Panel in Windows. Without it, I'd have to use the terminal. It also installs on just about anything.
