#VIRTUAL DISPLAY MANAGER REDDIT UPDATE#

Update #2: On December 11th, 2020, I was a guest for a second panel discussion. Update #1: On November 19th, 2020, I was a panel guest of the International Center for Academic Integrity.

Wallpaper with eyes, or a Jonas Brothers Poster.

Note: xdg-desktop-portal-wlr is on arch’s community repository which was not the case at the time of writing.

Let’s install everything from the AUR, note that for this process I use aurman which isn’t publicly maintained, if you don’t really know what you do in archlinux use yay. For this to work, you need “portals” using xdg-desktop-portal with a “backend”, which is one of:įor sway, we’ll use the later. Now this pipewire needs some additional packages to support pulseaudio (pipewire-pulse) or say wlroots-based window manager like sway. On firefox today you need this patch, available as fedora-firefox-wayland-bin in the AUR.

In Chromium, you can enable it using the enable-webrtc-pipewire-capturer flag (in chrome://flags). Pipewire will become the new way to communicate with the desktop applications, at least on linux systems. This framework differs in using a PolKit-like security model asking Wayland for permission to record screen or audio instead of relying on user groups ( audio and video). For desktop audio and video management, they decided to introduce a new multimedia framework called PipeWire (links to the archlinux documentation, the website is ). GNOME is one of the most popular desktop environment to switch to Wayland. Now because wayland is so different then X (see Wayland vs Xorg) many things change. Many thanks to emersion for the xdg-desktop-portal-wlr (he works on so many wayland-related tools, sponsored by a set of web tools, worth the check if you don’t know what it is) and danshick he made the PR that makes things work! How does this work? About a month after, I’ve done my research and guess what it works:

Still, none of these solutions were as good as full screen sharing but I was in a hurry and didn’t got the time to investigate. This was better as it works seamlessly with tmux, and I can share a hosted URL so that people can open my tmux in their own browser. I also had to make sure I focused the right tab.įor the next session, I used tmate. I had many complains that it was laggy / not readable (I type fast).

Thanks to chrome being able to share a chrome tab, I was able to make something work by sharing my tmux session in a web page.įor the first session I used gotty, but damn that didn’t worked so well with my vim inside tmux. I noticed that I couldn’t share my screen, indeed I switched on wayland where our browsers use X-based windows to make screen sharing works. They chose to use a self-hosted jitsi instance and asked me to do a few tests. The week before the confinment, I had to give an online course about reactive programming applied to Angular and redux. I’m looking for a more decentralized alternative if you know one! By the way, Framasoft may help working on live streaming with peertube ( source). We need to use tools like Zoom, Google Meet or less corporate-owned alternatives like Jitsi. In that era, communication over the Internet is more important then ever. In France, we’re now at the 36th day of the stay-at-home directive drived by the gouvernment. Note that if you install gvim instead of vim, you’ll get that famous +clipboard in vim! About everything else is handled by my dotfiles, the most recent change was to use bat as pager in man files. These are my only graphical interfaced applications, for the rest I’m living in tmux itself running on alacritty.

keybase - most favorite private drive, git, chat.

syncthing - syncs my desktop / phone data.

udiskie (note to fix the waybar tray use libappindicator-gtk3 see this issue).

#VIRTUAL DISPLAY MANAGER REDDIT BLUETOOTH#

bluez, bluez-utils, blueman - a classic to manage bluetooth connection.

You can find all the packages I use daily in my dotfiles repository. I had to find alternatives to my previous tools, here’s a list: X11 I use i3 for some years now, the natural way further is Sway. From i3 to Swayįew months ago I’ve updated my linux stack and decided to switch to a wayland-based infrastructure (see also: Wayland vs Xorg). Note: xdg-desktop-portal-wlr is on arch’s community repository. Make screen sharing on wayland (sway) work!
