Catacomb's latest 1.3.0 release fixes an interesting issue:
Apparently on the PinePhone (Pro) when disabling `eg25-manager`, libinput generates a bunch of `XF86WakeUp` press/release events, ultimately ending up with the key permanently pressed. Since Catacomb supports multi-key bindings, it wouldn't trigger bindings anymore, since it only looked at the ones with `XF86WakeUp` active.

We made good progress on automated hardware testing in postmarketOS, resulting in being able to run pmaports changes on a real OP6T! Thanks to everybody who donated to postmarketOS or contributed their time to make this possible! ❤️

Two new (hopefully) useful additions to #Phosh's quick settings: There's now a (optional) location service toggle to enable / disable location services (contributed by @gauthamx) and the caffeine quick setting can now automatically disable itself after a given period of time (contributed by @rudraps). The possible timer intervals will become configurable in mobile settings at some point.
Was hoping to see a AArch64 build for the native #Linux version, as well as for the #flatpak on #Flathub. Currently, the only easy way to connect to the #TOR network on #LinuxMobile is using #BraveBrowser or #Carburetor.
Cell broadcast is working flawlessly with the latest ModemManager with #Phosh on #postmarketOS!
PSA for #Sxmo users:
"Wireplumber 0.5.11 just get released. It includes new hooks that toggle
the audio call profile automatically. This conflict with our usage of
callaudiod.
This means the audio over call is broken now on Edge with Pipewire. I
recommend to not upgrade your system for some time until this get fixed."
#Newsflash is a great @gnome app that supports synchronization with #NextCloud #News. The new 4.0 Beta release now works much better on my @furilabs #FLX1 phone. Especially the web view is so much smoother.
If you're here for the nerdy hacker toys, consider donating to the Black hacker collective I founded with @rekcahdam. And be sure to follow our team accounts @dataparty + @rfparty
Donations made here go to helping us start a Black owned software company.
In return we're building open source linux mobile apps and games and need help getting off the ground so we can make more content and tools.
Ever since doing the initial completion support in #phosh 's osk-stub I wanted to add a generic "unix pipe" like completer. phosh-osk-stub would feed the program preedit on stdin and read the completions from the program's stdout.
That is there now and with that and some more changes I can use @zachdecook 's #swipeGuess to do swipe like typing. To be clear: all the hard work is done by swipeGuess, phosh-osk-stub just piggy backs on it:
#LinuxMobile #gtk #gnome #librem5
Got a chance to talk to Miles Alan about his amazing projects:
* (Early days of) #Sxmo
* framebufferphone: new UI
* Mepo: new map app for Sxmo, fbp, Phosh, possibly PlaMo & more
* Why he likes #zig and #oilshell
