so sometimes, though rarely, i need to reload #windowmaker. today something happened, i opened a ‘run’ menu, tried to type in it, and it hung in foreground of all windows. i could move the mouse over the firefox window behind, i could scroll it up and down, and i guess i could close the tab, because on mouse over event wos working. however i could not change to other windows, move to other workspace. dockapps were working.
so i changed to tty with alt+f2, made ps aux | grep wmaker
and got two wmaker processes, i needed the second: wmaker --for-real=
, got it’s pid. Now issued kill -s SIGUSR1
that pid.
that reloads wmaker. every window stays at its workspacke. you don’t notice any change.

It’s not just endlessly reinventing the wheel, it’s often dropping the new wheels onto the piles of old wheels underneath. I’ve noticed similar things on Linux where looking for how to set something up in ALSA, I find many forum posts telling someone to just install PulseAudio (I’m yet to find anything that I need to do that PulseAudio can do and ALSA can’t)! The answer to how to solve one simple problem should not be to install an additional layer of complexity over the top of whatever you were using.

who needs a sound server of there is already dmix in alsa? except you need to stream audio over network (pulseaudio) or need low latency mixing (JACK)

and then, i thought, what did we gain with wayland. ok we loose things, but for what?
https://openbenchmarking.org/result/1905024-HV-FEDORA30D09&obr_sgm=y
11 years after the first release, what we have is comparable performance to X.
11 years is a lot of time. you had everything, all corporate resources, political force to push this technology, money to develop, and still, 11 years after the first release - comparable performance.
should i believe to wayland?
#xorg #wayland #benchmark #politics #technology #linux
p. s. if i use wayland + gnome | kde (and those are cpu hoggers, let’s say you cannot deal with audio + gnome/kde, gentoo-studio recommends and ships by default xfce, but even xfce is too heavy for me) then i loose speed anyway, because gnome/kde.
and if the speed of xorg vs wayland is comparable, then windowmaker on xorg is faster than gnome on wayland.
p. p. s. phoronix has to remove ‘php’ letters from its url apis, to be free to change underlying php and get rid of it.
The Wayland architecture integrates the display server, window manager and compositor into one process. You can think of Wayland as a toolkit for creating clients and compositors. It is not a specific single compositor or window manager. If you want a different window manager, you can write a new one.
I don’t know much about Wayland but the immediate question is: Why would you want to do that? If Wayland has it’s own window manager built in why do you need another one? It’s like support for Windows or OS X. Not needed as those systems have their own window managers and not really support replacing it. This is contrary to X which has no window manager by default and allows and encourages others to implement it. Window Maker is a window manager for X (as stated in the info box) and Wayland aims to be an incompatible replacement of X. So they are not really a good match at first sight.
now, they say - use wayland, it’s a new and good thing. this is a dealbreaker for me. i can’t live without windowmaker.
also, says
If Wayland has it’s own window manager built in why do you need another one?
wait, how? seriously? if there’s a one brand of bread, why would you need another one?
this is centralization again.

aaa, i succeeded in connecting my midi keyboard to bristol synth.
when i connect it, /dev/midi1
file is created.
qjackctl does not work in my windowmaker — when i start it, whole windowmaker hungs unless i don’t kill the process from pure terminal or via ssh.
so without jack, just alsa:
startBristol -mini -audio alsa -midi alsa -channel 1 -mididev /dev/midi1
now it is necessary to connect midi keyboard’s output to bristol’s input:
aconnect -l
shows:
client 20: 'Impulse' [type=kernel,card=1]
0 'Impulse MIDI 1 '
Connecting To: 128:0
1 'Impulse MIDI 2 '
client 128: '/dev/midi1' [type=user,pid=11247]
0 '/dev/midi1 input'
connecting:
aconnect 20:0 128:0
works:
noch@hactar ~ $ aconnect -l
client 0: 'System' [type=kernel]
0 'Timer '
1 'Announce '
client 14: 'Midi Through' [type=kernel]
0 'Midi Through Port-0'

Here’s where things start to go off the rails: what this means is that all of the DPRK’s national network is non-routable IP space. You heard me; they’re treating their entire country like some small to medium business might treat their corporate office. The entire country of North Korea is sitting on one class A network (16,777,216 addresses). I was always under the impression they were just pretending that they owned large blocks of public IP space from a networking perspective, blocking everything and selectively turning on outbound traffic via access control lists. Apparently not!

We all have seen those tables, which explain which free software can be a replacement for proprietary software.
When I was installing GNU/Linux to my friends, I was trying not to tell them - “this is replacement of that”, but show them some features that they did not even know about, something that exists only in GNU/Linux world.
I think, it’s not a very good sign, when we have many free software projects that tend to implement the same product as proprietary project.
In that case, it means that innovation first happens in proprietary world, then we try to copy and implement it, to not fall far behind. And very often our implementations are not good enough.
We need more “authentic” free projects, and let the proprietary software try to copy/implement it. In that case they will fall behind.
I think it’s not a coincidence that innovative ideas happen in proprietary thinking brains. This is because they think “what new thing can we do in order to earn?”. And we are too busy implementing free analogues of that proprietary software, often not good as original.
May be that’s because we are not used to think innovative enough. We ourselves tend to think more in terms of “repeating”, instead of “innovating”.
Sorry if I hurt your feelings. - may be I need to put it under every post I write.

My father has almost no computer literacy. He used to Debian at home. He only uses graphics, no command line, obviously. Recently he eventually bought himself a notebook. It had Windows preinstalled. Surprise, surprise! He was unable to use it. Asked me to come to install Debian, so that he can use familiar environment. Also, he uses MATE, because that’s what he used to since GNOME 2. Which means, the switch is painful. If someone is used to GNU/Linux GUI first, switch to Windows is not less painful for him, than vice versa. That’s not a matter of usability. That’s a matter of habit.
Same story with my mother. I don’t think she can ever work with Windows.

Linux Kernel: What are the factors in choosing among the different memory allocators in the Linux kernel?
First, “slab” has become a generic name referring to a memory allocation strategy employing an object cache, enabling efficient allocation and deallocation of kernel objects. It was first documented by Sun engineer Jeff Bonwick[1] and implemented in the Solaris 2.4 kernel.
Linux currently offers three choices for its “slab” allocator:
Slab is the original, based on Bonwick’s seminal paper and available since Linux kernel version 2.2. It is a faithful implementation of Bonwick’s proposal, augmented by the multiprocessor changes described in Bonwick’s follow-up paper[2].
Slub is the next-generation replacement memory allocator, which has been the default in the Linux kernel since 2.6.23. It continues to employ the basic “slab” model, but fixes several deficiencies in Slab’s design, particularly around systems with large numbers of processors. Slub is simpler than Slab.
SLOB (Simple List Of Blocks) is a memory allocator optimized for embedded systems with very little memory—on the order of megabytes. It applies a very simple first-fit algorithm on a list of blocks, not unlike the old K&R-style heap allocator. In eliminating nearly all of the overhad from the memory allocator, SLOB is a good fit for systems under extreme memory constraints, but it offers none of the benefits described in [1] and can suffer from pathological fragmentation.
What should you use? Slub, unless you are building a kernel for an embedded device with limited in memory. In that case, I would benchmark Slub versus SLOB and see what works best for your workload. There is no reason to use Slab; it will likely be removed from future Linux kernel releases.

So the idea is to tie everything so hard into systemd that alternatives will just be impossible because of undocumented, unportable APIs that are leaky abstractions that make no sense without the thing they fail to abstract?
And why on earth does every daemon now need to be patched? They worked well for the last few decades without such specific hackery.

anybody knows a #scanner which works with free drivers under #GNU / #Linux - with #SANE and has a possibility to #scan #photo #film? by using exclusively free software.
when I read about new cool project built with #raspberry-pi I think - okay - they didn’t do any low level #programming. They used #python, and they have all those #drivers ready to use. If it is considered a tool for #children - then what will they learn, they couldn’t learn by using a #GNU/Linux pc?
That’s why when I read about cheap #Linux boards I afraid that #8bit #microcontrollers won’t be used and thus less and less people would tinker with low level staff. And if they don’t deal with it, they don’t have deep understanding of how it works.
That’s why I appreciate #Arduino, and I hope it won’t be ousted from #market. Actually, that language and #compiler which comes with Arduino is too lame. I never programmed #AVR with that language, I used gcc, and thus Arduino + #gcc is a good #toy for a child. I agree. But I am not so sure about #raspberrypi

CONFIG_OMFS_FS: This is the proprietary file system used by the Rio Karma music player and ReplayTV DVR. Despite the name, this filesystem is not more efficient than a standard FS for MPEG files, in fact likely the opposite is true. Say Y if you have either of these devices and wish to mount its disk.
I just discovered an exciting device, this is really cool: http://solid-run.com/ it’s a small, 2x2x2 #GNU / #Linux box.
and this is #nemomobile running on it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEmgDMAfxZk

quite frankly, I am leery of the fact that the #udev maintenance seems to have gone into some “crazy mode” where they have made changes that were known to be problematic, and are pure and utter stupidity https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/2/505 #linus-torvalds #linux
I do not understand why #lazarus team do not change this: http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=9597 I think lazarus had to add -dUseCThreads in case of being installed on #GNU/#Linux #freepascal
