00:42 <Evo2> ifreund: when I was using sway I would have swayidle send a 'swaymsg "output * dpms off"' to blank the screen. I've not been able to find an equivalent way to tell river to blank the screen. Do you have a suggestion?

00:44 <Evo2> LOL, just noticed that meks asked the exact same thing... too much stuff getting lost in the "has quit" and "has joined" messages.

00:55 <waleee> Evo2: most irc-clients have some filters for those, that you can enable

00:56 <waleee> (even the channel logs at libera.irclog.whitequark/river/)

00:58 <waleee> Evo2: I think people use eg. wlopm, https://git.sr.ht/~leon_plickat/wlopm

00:59 <waleee> some alternatives listed on https://github.com/riverwm/river/wiki/Recommended-Software#output-configuration

01:36 <Evo2> walee: Just grabbed wlopm. Seems to be exactly what I need.

02:06 <leon-p> there is something oddly amusing about my most popular projects being like 95% boiler plate Wayland code and about 10 to 20 lines of original logic.

03:51 <Evo2> leon-p: I liked it so much I packaged it for Debian :-) https://mentors.debian.net/package/wlopm/

03:54 <Evo2> snakedye: I like (an am using) ristate but unfortunately packaging for rust in Debian is beyond me.

03:56 <snakedye> :/

03:59 <Evo2> I did try though!

03:59 <snakedye> I don't think river-status will last long so maybe it's not that big of a loss

04:02 <Evo2> I'm just using it to show the focused window title in waybar.

12:52 <novakane> so for 'Guest77' who was asking, if they pass by again, I added a max width ratio for the usable area of the screen in rivercarro

12:53 <novakane> on the 'width-rato' branch for now, need to use it a bit before merging it, though it should not have any problems

14:14 <novakane> ifreund: what if we add something like this as a workaround to check wlroots/wayland version https://zigbin.io/dd5bce
