Wow. I spent thousands of hours in that game, same with the predecessor BF Vietnam. Flying a helicopter with a joystick in BF2 is some of the most fun I've had in a game. I recently installed windows 10 on a laptop and got BF2 running on it including all the patches and mods, with some third party program for multiplayer since EA left it long ago, and there are still some good servers out there if anyone feels the need to Initiating satellite scan

79:76? Do you live on Venus? JK, looks great.
No, he can't sleep on the floor. What do you think I'm yelling for?!!!

@lbdesign; I'd actually be afraid to restart that old addiction.
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, tweaked a bit
p.s. Art taken from the old zx spectrum 'Scuba dive" game.

I like the weather widget at the bottom left portion of your screen - can you elaborate on what it is?

Debian sid & LXQt:
The box is connecting to the wireless access point using iwd:

Very cool. Why you no netplan?
I have a netplan horror story at work. Somehow I managed to miss that new “little” implementation detail and our private cloud just “happened” not to recognize etc/network/interfaces any more.

lol.
Network abstractions are pure evil but I can't get iwd to autoconnect at all unless I restart the systemd unit file, it's very frustrating
Once iwd.service is restarted then systemd-networkd picks up the authentication and even shows the "configured" flag:
3 wlp2s0 wlan routable configured

@hoas
I wonder if a unit timer could solve this??
Sounds like a race condition since systemd is just oh so fast!!

That's a fantastic idea, thanks!
Certainly better than my lame "solution":
(animal)empty@animal:~ $ tail -n1 ~/.profile
su -c 'systemctl restart iwd'
(animal)empty@animal:~ $
:8
Back on topic with my LXQt desktop, looking rather nice now:
And it's fast
EDIT: @skandyn, that's a brilliant Midnight Commander theme, can you post the configuration please?

I’d probably do what you did initially. Just an idea on a more / based solution.

my lame "solution"
I have a better solution! 8)
# cp /lib/systemd/system/iwd.service /etc/systemd/system
# editor /etc/systemd/system/iwd.service
Then change the file so that it looks like this:
# /etc/systemd/system/iwd.service
[Unit]
Description=Wireless service
Before=network.target multi-user.target shutdown.target
Wants=network.target
Conflicts=shutdown.target
[Service]
ExecStart=/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/iwd/iwd
LimitNPROC=1
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Also=systemd-networkd.socket
Alias=dbus-org.freedesktop.network1.service
Then reload the configuration and disable & re-enable iwd:
# systemctl daemon-reload
# systemctl disable --now iwd
# systemctl enable --now iwd
The daemon should now autoconnect every boot (using iwd's "smart" prioritisation heuristics) and also integrate with systemd-networkd
Sorry for spamming the screenshots thread, it's late now and I will split this out into a proper HowTo tomorrow.

No problem, this thread goes OT all the time. As long as the info we're sharing is only of interest to the general BL/Debian/Linux user, I don't think every system tweak needs it's own thread.
Ib this case, though, I see why you'd split it.

@hoas
Sometimes we just need someone with us in the trenches to fix a unit file that should go upstream.
@hhh it’s been that way since the dawn of bang
