I want to click an icon, not type "like everyone else". All this customizability goes out of the window when it becomes emotionally inconvenient, eh? I also don't want to remap win-left to:
#!/bin/bash
taskbar_h=40
w=$(xdisplay_info | awk '/width/ {print $2}')
h=$(xdisplay_info | awk '/height/ {print $2}')
xdotool getactivewindow windowmove 0 0 windowsize $((w / 2)) $((h - taskbar_h))
And a similar abomination for win-right, which I would have to maintain somewhere. And in wayland, what are even the options?
Use a better font
I think you misunderstood this. While the physical display is "on", it all looks correct. When you turn it off and vnc into the main X display, it's all mangled, regardless of the font. The order of turn off / vnc into doesn't matter either.
Also, I don't want to globally disable notifications. Maybe I just have to globally disable graphics? That would indeed solve many issues with linux desktops.
- guappa 2y agoI don't think you want to click an icon, your main goal here is to reject any solution and keep complaining :) Feel free :)
- wruza 2y agoYeah I surely will. Cause Linux Desktop is very far from being ready to use, complete or bug/stupidity-free. Cause you didn’t address even a half of the issues here and was only picking on trivial functions that you understand and found coping workarounds for. “Reject any solution”, lol, I have yet to see any solution apart from “turn it off completely” or “don’t use”. I did all my due diligence, my complaints are not even remotely lazy. And I want other people to know that, before they buy into fanboy advices from people who seem to either barely use anything in the OS beyond a browser, or are just lying to themselves. Answers like these speak even better than any of my complaints here could. Feel free to advise next time, I’ll be there as well. Every discussion like this works the same. You mention a set of real use case issues and ask what to do, and all the advisors suddenly appear too busy to answer, with a rare exception of the most defensive deniers.
- guappa 2y ago1 tiny minor thing doesn't work as I like = OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!1!!!!!1!!! HOW TERRIBLE1!!!1!!!!!1!!!! As if there is any bug free platform :) But as we've established, you're not interested in rationality or solutions :D
