Re: bunsen-configs-wayland-plugin available for testing

^ kanshi as an extension of wlr-randr I guess? I don't grasp it 100% but it looks to me like automation to choose a display when it's plugged in?

Maybe it wouldn't be too hard to make a CLI wrapper for wlr-randr that lets the user choose a config set from wlr-randr's list, offer to apply it (with a confirmation timeout in case the mode setting is broken) and write it to a file that is run from the user's autostart?

Of course a pretty GUI that did all that would be better. For a moment I thought nwg-displays might be it, but it doesn't support wlroots compositors.

(wdisplays ships no man page btw )

There's also something called shikane but no deb package yet.

^Yesterday I downloaded labwc-menu-generator from here and installed it using apt. There were no errors; the application menu was available immediately after logging out and back in.

Re: bunsen-configs-wayland-plugin available for testing

^Thanks for checking that. So for BL Nitrogen we can just use labwc-menu-generator from the regular Debian repos.

Meanwhile, for BL Carbon it might be an easy package to backport to Trixie. I'll have a look.
@unklar what Debian version are you testing on?
