2020-11-11T05:10:27 #kisslinux <midfavila> hey, quick question for you guys-
2020-11-11T05:10:28 #kisslinux <midfavila> Any idea why GRUB would be entering a bootloop on a clean install of KISS?
2020-11-11T05:16:55 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> midfavila: Could be grub or kernel related
2020-11-11T05:18:20 #kisslinux <midfavila> Hrm... I'll try setting up a different kernel then. Thanks
2020-11-11T11:00:31 #kisslinux <soliwilos> dylanaraps: Just in case you were unaware, hikari does not use a "wallpaper daemon".
2020-11-11T11:01:41 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> soliwilos: ooo
2020-11-11T11:01:52 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> It works as it does under x11 (from a usage perspective)?
2020-11-11T11:02:38 #kisslinux <soliwilos> You set a wallpaper in the config and reload.
2020-11-11T11:03:17 #kisslinux <soliwilos> The only thing that runs is hikari itself.
2020-11-11T11:05:34 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Can you cycle through wallpapers easily?
2020-11-11T11:05:42 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> By reload you mean the entire compositor?
2020-11-11T11:07:26 #kisslinux <soliwilos> Yes, but the reload is "invisible". You don't notice it happening.
2020-11-11T11:08:02 #kisslinux <soliwilos> You just hit whatever key combination you've got set for the reload command in the hikari config.
2020-11-11T11:09:30 #kisslinux <soliwilos> I'm not aware of a method of cycling between many wallapers, other than editing the config file. Should be said I'm far from a hikari expert yet. :)
2020-11-11T11:11:01 #kisslinux <soliwilos> I guess scripting it somehow could be doable.
2020-11-11T13:05:56 #kisslinux <soliwilos> dylanaraps: I just changed my wallpaper and hit "reload", the only thing visibly occurring was a wallpaper swap.
2020-11-11T13:07:47 #kisslinux <soliwilos> It's different from what happens in sway.
2020-11-11T17:19:39 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> total oversight on using the name `xwm`.  apparently, `xwm’ was one of the original window managers.  long since dead and maintained.  i’m conflicted with renaming it. sigh...

2020-11-11T17:44:00 #kisslinux <acheam> is yours in similar spirit to the original?
2020-11-11T17:58:14 #kisslinux <ominous_anonymou> have any of you guys built `gpm` on kiss?
2020-11-11T18:01:19 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> acheam: i believe so.  i imagine its fine, so long as i give proper credit
2020-11-11T18:01:49 #kisslinux <acheam> mcpcpc[m]: Yeah, personally I wouldn't worry about it as long as you make clear that none of the code is shared
2020-11-11T18:03:44 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> acheam: yeah. i would agree.  will make a disclaimer somewhere in the readme.  i appreciate the input.
2020-11-11T18:04:25 #kisslinux <acheam> mcpcpc[m]: yep. Keep up the good work! Its great to see more suckless-type utilities
2020-11-11T18:08:48 #kisslinux <mcpcpc[m]> acheam: thanks! it’s definitely been a long but fun journey.  i’m just enjoying the learning process
