I've got a weird problem with @libreoffice ...

Whenever I'm using fractional scaling, the little (etc.) buttons to change the detail level (collapse all of the groups) are way too small, and kinda misshapen (overlapping each other).

When I'm *not* using fractional scaling, they're **still** too small, but not overlapping.

I'm running the native package on #Debian #Trixie.

Just FYI, I'm running LO with the `QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb` env var, because otherwise I get *really* weird fractional scaling issues on #KDE #Plasma #wayland

But *this* particular problem I had even when running KDE #X11 on #Plasma 5.27 on Debian Stable. :/

Fedora 43 soll ohne X11 bei GNOME kommen

Fedora 43 plans to remove X11 packages from GNOME repos.

El anuncio de #Fedora de extirpar definitivamente la sesión de #Xorg en #GNOME me ha recordado a este vídeo mío.

Fedora 43 Change Proposal Filed For Removing GNOME X11 Packages: Wayland-Only GNOME | @phoronix

For those #Linux users who use the #Sway window manager, have you tried Jay?

Jay just released 1.10.0.

Same vibes as Sway, but in Rust but without an attempt to maintain compatibility. For example, the config file is in TOML.

#PSA: things that are still broken in #KDE #Plasma #Wayland session (minor) as of 6.3.4

• Windowshade only works with X11 windows
• No compatibility with wtype, and ydotool doesn't handle Unicode (or at least, not emoji) (So, now way to inject text into the active window, like for an emoji picker)
• No way (that I've found so far) to get the title/name of the active window
  • Correction: this is doable with kdotool: kdotool getwindowname $(kdotool getactivewindow)

That's it so far. I'll add to this if I find/remember anything else.

One more thing I've just observed: the mouse cursor doesn't disappear in LibreOffice Calc when just moving the selection cursor with the arrow keys. It does disappear (as I have specified in settings) when you actually type something in, though.

OK, speaking of #Valheim
I've been playing on #Linux, using #Steam, in #Sway (#Wayland, obv.) and while I have an #NVidia GPU, it doesn't seem to be getting used? Yes, it's an older GPU, but even at around 10FPS on the lowest quality video settings, I'm consistently only getting about 12 FPS, which... it's less fun. It's still playable for somebody like me who is an old and doesn't really do a lot of high-FPS gaming or whatever (as you can tell) but I'm genuinely wondering what I'm doing wrong.

Anybody have any tips? The usual googling turns up lots of "won't launch" but that isn't the problem I'm having.

LXQt 2.2 Released with Enhanced Wayland Support | @linuxiac

｢ The team has addressed a long-standing quirk in multi-screen setups by adopting screen names instead of screen numbers — a necessary shift, as Wayland does not define a “primary screen” in the traditional sense ｣

The latests release of Fedora Workstation adds enhanced video performance, offline speech recognition and text-to-speech (TTS) improvements. It also includes screen time tracking and break reminders, useful for ADHD sufferers and to reduce burnout.

Argh. #KDE #Plasma's #Wayland session doesn't support wtype:

Compositor does not support the virtual keyboard protocol

That brings the completeness down to 90%. That's annoying.

Odd, #LibreOffice does not like having different scaling factors on two monitors.

I've got 1.8x scaling on my left (laptop) monitor and 1.0x on my right (HDMI). It looks like they're both getting 1.8x scaling, so everything is huge on my main (right) monitor.

I had to add QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb to the environment variables using the #KDE #Plasma menu editor to force it to run in X11 mode (XWayland), and now it's fine.
