[on Fedora 40 & 41]

Hi,

I don't theme Gnome and stay with the defaults. However at some point a few months ago I must have done something that broke the theme for Qt programs: KeepassXC, QOwnNotes, Nextcloud desktop client, all rpm. I tried the flatpak version of keepassxc, no issue

symptoms:

• KeepassXC starts in light theme, even when system is using dark. If I reopen it, it switches to dark
• font became very small both in KeepassXC and QOwnnotes
• there's something wrong with the windows shadows
• taskbar icons show 3 dots instead of the apps respective icons. This is fixed with Fedora 41 for Nextcloud only !
• taskbar icons are unresponsive/won't work. half fixed with Fedora 41.

I tried a few things:

• disabled extensions
• reset all gnome settings
• themed Qt with Kvantum (might have been a bad idea) (reverted)
• installed a custom theme for the system (reverted)
• removed some Qt stuff which seemingly weren't a dependency for anything

I also have a laptop running Fedora Gnome and don't have those issues.

What else could I try?

Thanks for reading!

Hi,

I needed to change my machine to a new one (tuxedo gen9), and I quickly installed my distro of choice (manjaro-gnome), and configured it as the old machine (I am very conservative on this... I do not like the change as it introduces some friction in my workflow... I even have the same wallpaper from the last 10 years, heh :P).

Turns out, I am unable to "see" some options of the gnome-shell that were present in my older machine:

• keyboard backlight regulation (and it works, as I am able to regulate it with fn+space)
• background apps

I would like to bave them back... any hint on what I can be missing ?

======================================== librsvg ========================================

Version 2.59.1 ==============

librsvg crate version 2.59.1

librsvg-rebind crate version 0.1.0

Two mitigations for crashes found throuh fuzz testing:

• #1088, #1118 - Cairo is easy to crash by giving it path coordinates that are outside of the range that it can represent internally with its fixed-point arithmetic. Fuzzers usually produce SVGs with very large numbers for coordinates, which overflow Cairo's arithmetic. This is just a mitigation, not a complete fix: librsvg will now check if path coordinates are outside of Cairo's supported range, and it will not render shapes with problematic coordinates. However, fuzzers may still produce coordinates that are in range but that still make Cairo crash. I am starting to learn Cairo's code to see if this can be fixed gradually.

======================================== loupe ========================================

Dear Gnome, I really love your system, yet as a connected user who recently tried your "online-account" i have a feedback to do with the hope you actually make a change or two

First can you change the way on how "file" work to allow a sync instead of a direct connection who force us to use third party app

Second for services that support it, can you please move from the old as hell mechanisme of app password by the user and use the modern way browser)

Thanks

This branch implements support for transforming SDR (sRGB) to a HDR enabled output, while allowing HDR content to stay intact.

Roughly what it does is, when HDR mode is enabled via the experimental property, all the stage views that represents outputs where HDR actually managed to be enabled starts to composite in a linear variant of the target color space (which will be BT.2020) via an intermediate framebuffer. Each thing being painted should then transform its pixels to fit in this color space, using an EOTF, a color space mapping matrix and luminance adaptation.

Here is the merge request

From €500 to €10,000 depending on criticality. For now only GLib is in scope but we will expand the list of modules and advertise as the program grows.

If you are a GNOME or freedesktop module maintainer and would like your module to join the pilot program; please get in touch.

In partnership with YesWeHack and Sovereign Tech Fund.

Luminance is a simple GTK application to control brightness of displays including external displays supporting DDC/CI

Here's the Github Repo

Not mine, but here is the Github repo :

Solved:

The dev updated the theme (I am using Kripton https://github.com/EliverLara/Kripton) !

So I want to get rid of these grey boxes that got added to everything in the overview. They are in the bar as shown in the image, they are in every text in the overview search as well.

For my taste it is disgustingly ugly. And I can't find where I can make it go back to normal.

Folks, why would they even change it to whatever that new hum is. It sounds all like BEhWOE BEhWOE BEhWOE, the old one felt like spamming menu options in gta4.

Where is the old hum sound? WHere is that mp3? how do i slap that into the settings menu? I wish this was sarcastic.

Edit: Ok so its gonna be an .ogg file to go in "/usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/" , just need the old hum sound file

Edit 2: For anyone like myself, I found it here

It's fun to play around with the settings:

Hey there, I don't know if any of you noticed something similar recently, but I have noticed my cursors have gone HUGE, like 2x what it should be at least. I think this is related to the affected apps using a beta version of Libadwaita 1.6, but I just wanted to confirm here before I create an issue in the repo. I use 200% scaling, GNOME 45, Fedora 39. Does anybody else have this problem? Thanks!!

How it should look (in Pods, firefox and most other apps)

!

How it looks in Ptyxis

!

How it looks in Adwaita Demo (latest update, which bumped the libadwaita version to 1.6)

!

I'm looking into the possibility to move my personal notes from NextCloud to CalDav, it seems to have the possibility to store notes with and without dates and also todo lists. The todo lists can be used nicelly in HomeAssistant too.

But it seems that the GNOME Notes app doesn't sync to CalDav when you try to look it up on their website. Evolution does though, but it's so bulky.

Turns out gnome-notes does to some degree implement CalDav. In the perferences I can choose which is the primary storage location, and there the two calendars I have set up in Evolution show up.

And when I write a new note in the gnome-notes app, it even shows up in Evolution and on my phone! Great success! But for some reason when I create a note in Evolution it does not show up in gnome-notes.
