01:06 <chipps> Hi, I have a problem.

01:06 <chipps> Is it possible to get firefox's autoscroll thingy natively on wayland for a given mouse?

01:09 <chipps> let me explain

01:10 <chipps> If I have a mouse that doesn't have a scroll whee

01:10 <chipps> whee

01:10 <chipps> wheel

01:10 <chipps> I would want to press the middle mouse button, and move the mouse pointer in the direction I want to scroll.

01:11 <chipps> is that possible at all?

12:45 <daniels> emersion: le ping

12:46 <daniels> emersion: I'm not sure if you remember how to do Weston releases anymore after all this time but ... probably time to do one I think :)

12:46 <daniels> emersion: though given that our usual 6-week calendar would go over Christmas, I guess we should stretch to like 8 or 9?

12:59 <emersion> i'll consult the secret scrolls

12:59 <emersion> yeah now that dmabuf-feedback is merged, good time for a release indeed

13:01 <kennylevinsen> emersion retrieving the release documentation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22ap4RUqBHo

13:09 <emersion> oh how'd you find actual footage?

13:11 <emersion> daniels, pq: sounds good, or do you prefer if we add more legroom? https://paste.sr.ht/blob/2dae331894cd26cd30d35624d06eac04d04b054b

13:14 <daniels> emersion: maybe push beta back a week?

13:18 <emersion> sure

13:18 <emersion> daniels, pq: https://paste.sr.ht/blob/94b194b14bc723a1155f8928948f0ef3cb63e8a0

13:21 <daniels> emersion: yeah that looks good to me, thanks - anyone else have any thoughts?

13:35 <pq> emersion, Jan 11 is the last day of my winter holiday. Sounds good to me.

13:36 <emersion> hm do you want a few extra work days then?

13:36 <pq> no, unless you think I'm needed :-)

13:37 <daniels> pq: depends how much colour management you're going to merge :P

13:37 <pq> alpha in two weeks so one more MR at most I guess

13:37 <pq> and that's going to be tight

13:38 <pq> but I don't see any reason to delay the release because of CM&HDR, it's not going to do any good for a long time still

15:32 <rapha> hi all!

15:32 <rapha> couple questions...

15:32 <rapha> a) is anyone aware of something like Guake for Wayland?

15:33 <rapha> b) are there efforts for making screencapture (video, not just stills) work well in wayland irrespective of WM/Compositor/etc.?

15:33 <rapha> c) are there any technical reasons standing in the way of someone creating something like xdotool for Wayland?

15:34 <rapha> d) it seems video accelleration in the browser is not as performant with Wayland as it used to be with X11. what's the reason there? lack of vendor support?

15:36 <jadahl> a) can be done with compositor configuration/extensions, b) pipewire via portals; it's what browsers use. c) the fact that clients shouldn't have "control", but there are ways/efforts with different level of completeness. d) probably just code that needs to be written or or bug needing fixing (except if you're using the nvidia driver)

15:37 <rapha> wait, pipewire is audio? i didn't know it also does video ...?

15:37 <jadahl> pipewire is video and/or audio

15:37 <rapha> oooh

15:37 <jadahl> it was video first, then added audio

15:37 <rapha> TIL

15:38 <rapha> okay, seems like all these "issues" will, with some time, just become non-issues.

15:39 <rapha> thanks, jadahl!

15:41 <jadahl> rapha: https://mozillagfx.wordpress.com/2021/10/30/switching-the-linux-graphics-stack-from-glx-to-egl/ might be of interest regarding d)
