| stribika | so this code goes out to dbus, and asks logind (i guess elogind in my case) if one of the sessions uses the tty it wants | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| stribika | i have straces of it doing that | 00:01 |
| stribika | but somehow it doesn't see the actual session. and even if it did, normally there is no session, but getty still uses tty1, so i don/t understand how this check is supposed to work | 00:02 |
| gnarface | hmm | 00:02 |
| gnarface | do you have seatd running too? | 00:02 |
| gnarface | i wonder if this has something to do with the new seatd mess | 00:03 |
| stribika | i don't have it installed | 00:03 |
| gnarface | really? i thought it had to be installed | 00:04 |
| gnarface | i just disable it here, but i'm also not using a login manager, i just use startx | 00:04 |
| gnarface | (everything seems to work fine with startx, with or without seatd, i just don't like it) | 00:04 |
| stribika | i will try lightdm then | 00:06 |
| gnarface | i can't be sure it will help with this, but it was the only one i didn't have problems with when i was installing another machine for a friend who wanted KDE and a working login manager | 00:06 |
| gnarface | i still had to switch some backend package from the default to a non-default option to make the shutdown/hibernate/suspend buttons work right, but i forget what that was | 00:07 |
| stribika | heh, that somewhat recently started to work on its own for me. | 00:10 |
| gnarface | my guess is the consequence of an upgrade or installation must have shifted that package choice for you | 00:11 |
| gnarface | (the system in question has been upgraded across multiple releases, so maybe they fixed it in daedalus) | 00:11 |
| rrq | gnarface: you shouldn't poo-poo the seatd patch for Xorg; it's that one that makes it possible to run startx (if you have due access to devnodes). With the patch, you would have been forced to use logind and dbus. | 00:15 |
| gnarface | rrq: well, i'm still forced to use dbus anyway | 00:16 |
| stribika | i will make a bug report for sddm, even if lightdm works, it seems like a legit issue | 00:16 |
| stribika | thanks for the help | 00:16 |
| gnarface | not sure i really helped yet, but you're welcome anyway | 00:17 |
| rrq | ... Without the patch, ... | 00:18 |
| gnarface | [NoClan]GoAway: hey are you still having that problem with KDE Discover? i came up with a couple more solutions to try based on solutions people found for the same problem in Arch linux | 00:26 |
| gnarface | or was that only the other guy? | 00:27 |
| gnarface | he doesn't seem to be here anymore, but if hiddendjinn comes back someone tell him i may have found a solution | 00:29 |
| dosensuppe1 | plasma41: indeed, sorry I didn't notice. I just installed every package that the make script put inside the directory. | 17:24 |
| dosensuppe1 | the patched package correctly put the cron scripts inside the directory | 17:24 |
