Another page on the calendar flips, and there was much rejoicing!

Post your screenshots here. All operating systems, desktop managers, window managers, etc... are welcome!

We do have a thumbnail rule, no full size images please. Use your favorite image host. We like imgur because it plays nice with xfce4-screenshooter, installed by default on BunsenLabs.

If you have time, take our Boron Live Test ISO for a spin!

Cheers, and thanks for your continued use of the BunsenLabs forums!

Screencast w/ audio (after a minute)

https://youtu.be/ck37lY7UwKE

-edit- Sorry for the poor, extended jamming. I wanted to show off that I had configured VMPK to have a range of two and a half octaves, that I had found a fairly realistic piano sound via sfz files, that I could load the samples into LinuxSampler via it's QSampler frontend, and then audtition/record the "piano" into Ardour with very low latency (5.3 milliseconds) via Jack. VMPK let's me "play the piano" with my laptop keyboard. Also that I could simultaneously hear PulseAudio outputs, Audacious in this case, thanks to Pipewire/Wireplumber, and record the audio from the soundcard as well as the screencast via SimpleScreenRecorder.

There's not a lot of info online on how to get this all working. Just learning the basics of Ardour took hours of time. I'm learning Shotcut now. It's supposed to be a "simple" video editor. I think "relatively simple" would be more accurate, it's still complex as can be.

My plan is to create a "review" video to showcase Boron on YouTube, since all the English language reviews of our previous releases have left out important features and spent way to much time on which apps we install by default, which is trivial.

@hhh,

The memory usage on Wayland with hyprland and sway right after startup in archlinux also looks as confused as in debian.

Same old from me.

@unklar, thanks, and lol at the RAM!

@PR, one of the nicest widescreen walls I've seen.

@Dobbie, I'm admiring the l33t terminal setup and the attention to detail on those borders and shadows!

Döbbie03 · 2023-12-02 20:03:15

@hhh, thanks mate. I spend so much time in the terminal so it needs to be right.

hhh · 2023-12-02 23:58:41

Must... not... configure... yet!

After our conversation the other day on Discord about Alacritty, I got all fired up and tweaked my st. So back on st.

I think so, my issue was that I couldn't get certain languages to display correctly. Right-To-Left isn't supported in st which I discovered after many hours of tinkering.

I'm back on a minimal GNOME on Xorg setup, it's not much heavier than "Openbox as a desktop environment". After a few hours of use... 27% RAM being used with some swap as apposed to 25% w/ barely any or even no swap by the BL desktop.

I scrapped the BL desktop on Ubuntu for now, the latest bunsen-configs update created a conflict with the stock mpv.conf.

Can you expand on that? Maybe there's something we can do to make our mpv configs compatible.

The issue only started with the latest bunsen-configs?

EDIT: our mpv.conf was last changed 5 years ago! Perhaps mpv on Ubuntu has had an upgrade which made it reject our configs?

I'll have to look at the logs, but apt was complaining about a conflict in /etc/mpv.conf that was also provided by bunsen-configs.

I wouldn't worry about it until after Boron is out.

So another package was installing /etc/mpv.conf. It's not mpv itself, at least not in Bookworm (just checked) so maybe part of Ubuntu desktop? If so, we might be able to add some relationship declaration to make sure that both packages aren't installed together...

I wouldn't worry about it until after Boron is out.

Agreed, especially if it's only an issue with Ubuntu. Ubuntu-compliant packages would likely need other changes too. It would be a pity if bunsen-configs turned out to be uninstallable on Ubuntu though. That would mean special Ubuntu-only packages, nut a super-attractive proposition right now.
