And here is the official theme music of the app: https://youtu.be/Vqbk9cDX0l0

A list of features would be nice.

Is the calendar widget part of the launcher for example?

Thanks for checking.

I just checked as well and on my system (arch, xfce) the file exists but it’s a symlink, created by a theme I tried but doesn’t exist on my system anymore (“qogir-gtk-theme-git”). After removing the symlinks it works.

I clicked apply in the app and a gtk.css and settings.ini files was created. The gtk.css file it’s empty. Is that the intended behavior?

Looks nice and useful thanks

I get this error using it for the first time.

[Errno 2] No such file or directory: ‘/home/xxx/.config/gtk-4.0/gtk.css’

Considering that file doesn’t exist the app might create it if necessary?

Cheers

Indeed, just wanted to make sure people are aware. :)

FYI: /etc/grub.d/10_linux should not be edited directly for permanent changes since those changes get replaced when grub is updated.

Use /etc/default/grub for permanent changes.

I am aware, I am using an alternative service myself for several years now. My point was that having an email service that helps fund Thunderbird would be nice. Furthermore, more alternative that ethically align with my views are always good.

In addition, we’re going to develop the tools that give people choices other than the big three.

This sentence at the very end makes me very curious. Is this a hint for a Thunderbird mail service or something similar?

On the one hand I would love to have a mail service offered by the Thunderbird team that would also fund Thunderbird development. On the other hand it’s probably not a good idea to split the development resources too thin.

It’s a work in progress. Most sites won’t work but some do. Check out this latest development update video: https://inv.tux.pizza/watch?v=giq5iXJntgQ&t=911 That link leads directly to the “demo segment” where he opens some sites.

The browser was at first only available in serentyOS itself but lately is available as a stand alone program running on other OSs as well. It’s still pretty early days, I am exited to see where all this leads tho!

Yes and they implement EVERYTHING in house. In case you haven’t heard they also started implementing a browser engine from scratch https://ladybird.dev/ just for fun. It kinda took off and they even got some nice donations, just to keep it going and see where it leads.

The “founders” youtube channel is quit interesting. Especially the monthly update videos if you want to keep up to date with the latest developments. https://inv.tux.pizza/channel/UC3ts8coMP645hZw9JSD3pqQ

Also if it is an 60fps video I start hearing the fans spinning like mad

ok this is definitely not normal. Check the temperature of your GPU. Is the GPU physically clean? Is the air flow ok? Do you have the chance to test with a different GPU? An overheating GPU can definitely lead to the described symptoms.

I was in a similar situation not too long ago and couldn’t find anything to fix it either at first. One thing that was high on my list was changing my PSU since a defect or weak one often seems to be a problem in such cases. Besides a general hardware failure of course. If it’s the hardware that could be anything really. Motherboard, RAM, GPU, PSU. PSU is the easiest to switch tho, so if you go that route I would try that first.

Anyways, I never had to do this cause in my case, believe it or not, a BIO update fixed my problem. I am still not 100% sure what happened but I think the update fixed the GPU voltage distribution or something similar.

Hope that help at least a little bit.

I think you meant to say serpentOS?

I only used ublue images for a little bit but on the one which offered xfce at that time it was available. I think it’s part of the main image design, so I see no reason it not being available. You can easily check tho.

One of the main features of silverblue is auto updates in the background. You don’t need a cronjob or a graphical tool to achieve this, it’s build into the distribution.

Have a look here: https://miabbott.github.io/2018/06/13/rpm-ostree-automatic-updates.html

You just have to change one entry in /etc/rpm-ostreed.conf and reload the systemd service.

That’s a good reason indeed. I have three monitors myself but all the same refresh rate so it’s all good on that end.

To be honest, one of the reasons I switched from KDE (after 15+ years of using it) was the better X support on xfce. I use an nvidia card, so before I switch to wayland support for nvidia drivers has to be much much better.
