#432 Xcalc under Sway/swmo 3 years ago

Ticket created by ~emulti on ~mil/sxmo-tickets

The Xresources needed to give Xcalc the look it has under sxmo don't get loaded under Sway/swmo.

Manually xrdb merge -ing /usr/share/sxmo/appcfg/xresources_xcalc.xr restores them, though I found the font size (last line) needed to be reduced to 24 or less to give a sane display so I copied the contents to ~/.Xresources

exec xrdb merge ~/.Xresources can be added to ~/.config/sxmo/sway to load the Xresources

Issue did not go away after 3+ reboots, but adding 'sleep 10' to the start hook also fixed it for me (Arch Linux ARM)

#304 SSH over USB not working (most of the time) 3 years ago

Is your PC failing to get an IP address? I just reported such an issue to PostmarketOS See https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/pmaports/-/issues/1138

#303 USB Networking IP range 3 years ago

Comment by ~emulti on ~mil/sxmo-tickets

On further thought this should be a PostmarketOS issue, not SXMO. Reported on pmaports. Release in use is 20210621-2351-postmarketOS-v21.06-sxmo-1.4.1-pine64-pinephone-installer.img.xz from the PMOS official site.

#303 USB Networking IP range 3 years ago

Ticket created by ~emulti on ~mil/sxmo-tickets

With the most recent PostmarketOS-stable, I find that if either the phone or PC has been suspended, the PC fails to acquire an IP once the devices are woken up again. On one Arch laptop I have, an IPV6 address is sometimes acquired. On another, the connection never re-establishes. Reboot and reconnect of the phone restores the address 172.16.42.2.

I suspect that this is because the lease for 172.16.42.2 is not released, and this is the only possible address set up in the initrd.

The difference in PC behaviour is probably due to variations in network config, though I wasn't able to find any.

Perhaps you could consider allowing a wider IP range in the initrd pool, to allow for multiple suspend/resume cycles or replugging between different hosts. Ten or twenty addresses in the pool should be plenty.

Also, I noticed that there is an /etc/udhcpd.conf existing in the filesystem which has uncommented values for a different IP range and associated options, which means that restarting udhcpd produces unexpected results. This should be matched with the config set up in the initrd.

Pardon my ignorance but I can't find out how to downgrade a package in PMOS. webkit2gtk appears not listed in https://pkgs.postmarketos.org (or the package filter is broken?) but 2.30.5-r0 is in the repos.

Where are older versions hosted, or do I need to build from source?

#213 "sudo apk upgrade" fails on fresh 1.3.0 image 4 years ago

Comment by ~emulti on ~mil/sxmo-tickets

Confirmed after reinstall caused by #214, and 'fixed' in same manner. But I don't understand why apk didn't just install u-boot-tools as part of the first attempt.

#214 sxmo-image-builder: MAY PREVENT BOOTING - apk upgrade fails - boot partition too small 4 years ago

Comment by ~emulti on ~mil/sxmo-tickets

confirmed- led to unbootable system for me and had to re-flash. Is it possible to use Jumpdrive to mount the partitions over usb network and resize them from a PC?

#193 DPI setting and UI size- a suggestion 4 years ago

Comment by ~emulti on ~mil/sxmo-tickets

Thank you ~tetrakist for creating the patches. Now I see how you handle the newly-created files. If others want to test, I am using font size in svkbd config.h of fontsize=7 and DejaVu Sans:bold:size=10

And Dmenu font size in xresources_dmenu.xr of Monospace-12 (or Sans-12 to get more characters per line in RSS script, for example)

In Dwm config.h I am using

    "sans size=9", /* PP default start index*/

and

  static const char dmenufont[]     =    "Sans:size=12";

This gives a better font size/spacing match to the Firefox chrome UI fonts just below the status bar, and more readable characters per line on the status bar for page titles etc. I am not clear whether the dmenufont[] value is overridden by the Xresources_dmenu.xr setting and I haven't figured out how to adjust the size of Dmenu 'icon' characters from nerd-fonts yet.

The extra blank lines I put by mistake in 90-monitor.conf and xresources_xft..xr have crept through into the patches, sorry. The comment line in 90-monitor.conf should/could read

# Technically should be: DisplaySize 68 136, but this reduces menu bar cropping on narrow screen
