I'm currently having an issue with river where all it shows is a blank screen but the cursor still works
<
Guest57>
Anybody know how to solve this issue?
<
ifreund>
Guest57: a blank blue screen presumably? it's most likely a configuration issue on your end
<
ifreund>
make sure you have a working terminal emulator installed (including a font)
<
Guest57>
Well i tried checking the default config location (/home/user/.config) but there was no river folder by default
<
ifreund>
there is no init script by defualt
<
ifreund>
there is nothing configured by default
<
Guest57>
So i tried adding one in manually with the example config but it didn't read it
<
ifreund>
try running simply `river -c foot` (or similar with a different terminal emulator)
<
ifreund>
if you see a terminal emulator, the problem is with your init script
talismanick has joined #river
bwbuhse has joined #river
<
Guest57>
Still nothing
<
ifreund>
do you have a font installed?
<
Guest57>
Yeah but what font is required for river by default?
<
ifreund>
it's required for most terminal emulators including foot to function
<
ifreund>
depends on the terminal emulator
<
Guest57>
Oh wait i have the regular river package installed which isn't the one you maintain is that gonna be an issue?
<
ifreund>
in any case, the next step is probably to collect river's stderr and share it on a pastebin
<
ifreund>
I don't maintain any river packages, as log as it's not a very old version it should work fine
<
Guest57>
The one i have installed is river
<
Guest57>
The one you maintain is river-git
<
ifreund>
I don't maintain any river packages
<
ifreund>
on any distro
<
Guest57>
You used to though
<
ifreund>
I don't even use arch any more if you're talking about the AUR package
<
ifreund>
and haven't for years
<
ifreund>
in any case, I can't help further without seeing the stderr output of river
<
ifreund>
river -log-level debug 2> /tmp/river.log
<
ifreund>
and share river.log in a pastebin :)
<
Guest57>
Well currently i'm accessing river from the terminal on an arch linux based distro with kde wayland
<
Guest57>
But if i boot into the river de it'll still give me a blank screen with just the cursor
<
Guest57>
The river-git package on chaotic aur seems to be newer than the other river package
<
Guest57>
So i'll try to see if the git version will work just a lil better
<
Guest57>
Lemme reboot rq just so it can apply changes since i switched to the river-git package
Guest57 has quit [Quit: Client closed]
Guest57 has joined #river
<
Guest57>
Yeah still blank screen
<
ifreund>
Like I said, you need to share a log if you want further support
<
Guest57>
Do i just run the command in my main de terminal since if i boot into the river de it'll just give me a blank screen
<
ifreund>
you can run river nested in an X11 or wayland session or the tty
<
ifreund>
if you run it from a tty, you can switch ttys with the standard key bindings
<
Guest57>
Alright currently running it on a konsole terminal emulator
<
Guest57>
What is the command again btw
<
ifreund>
river -log-level debug 2> /tmp/river.log
<
leon-p>
huh, the rwm branch coredumps for me
<
ifreund>
leon-p: go back one commit
<
ifreund>
the latest WIP one is very WIP :D
<
leon-p>
ah, yeah, I can tell by the name :)
<
ifreund>
I was testing by running `riverc -c rivercompat` and then running foot with WAYLAND_DISPLAY set from elsewhere
<
ifreund>
s/riverc/river.

you don't happen to know what could cause zig to have a ~40second delay for every command where it saturates one core?
Guest57 has quit [Quit: Client closed]
<
ifreund>
leon-p: is it building extra stuff from source due to a cold cache?
<
leon-p>
it's not just for building, also for fmt
<
ifreund>
it builds zig fmt from source on first run :/
<
ifreund>
I mean to revert that change before zig 0.14.0
<
ifreund>
need to remember to do that
<
leon-p>
but only on first run? because it seem to happen somewhat often for me
<
ifreund>
it'll rebuild it whenever there's a cache miss, perhaps there are false negatives
<
ifreund>
in any case, it's totally bad UX and not in any way worth the few saved bytes of zig tarball size
<
leon-p>
at least now I know there isn't anything weird / spooky happening 🤷
<
leon-p>
anyway, I am about to find out how far I got when I wrote WM code a few weeks ago
<
ifreund>
well, there's a very good chance that you got farther than river can currently support
<
ifreund>
please do share your code though, I would love to have something to test river against without having to flesh out rivercompat yet
<
leon-p>
I'll do once I know what works and once I am off this train
Guest57 has joined #river
<
leon-p>
why am I always on a train when interesting stuff happens in river...
<
Guest57>
Btw what's the status on the log file i posted?
<
Guest57>
Was there any issues found?
<
ifreund>
Guest57: as you can see in the log file, river ran your init script which started rivertile
<
ifreund>
it seems like a configuration issue on your end
<
leon-p>
Guest57: what do you actually expect to happen on startup?
<
ifreund>
to debug further, you could add debug echos to the init script, run a terminal unconditionally, etc
<
leon-p>
because blue background is the default behaviour
<
Guest57>
Well i expect there to be some part that is usuable
<
Guest57>
Like at least a status bar or anything that can be interacted with
<
leon-p>
none of that is in the default config 🤷
<
ifreund>
if you're not ready to read and understand the example init file
<
ifreund>
and perhaps the man pages,
<
ifreund>
river is probably not ready for you yet

does river not yet send new_window events on the rwm branch?
<
ifreund>
this is on 5500f579c
<
ifreund>
the commits after that don't build/run properly cause I started rewriting input handling
<
ifreund>
also, don't run this on the drm backend yet. It will break unless you have a VRR monitor
<
ifreund>
(I haven't implemented the search for working fallback output configurations yet)
