The battery gauge seems to have stopped working recently on my -current KDE4 desktop.
I opened a thread about it here.

Perhaps a new version of upower, or the its counterpart (that upower is talking to over DBus) may solve the problem.

That, and the removal of KDE4... to be replaced with Plasma5.

As it turned out, the mozjs78 package was missing. (It wasn't mentioned in CHANGES_AND_HINTS.TXT)
Installing it fixed the problem.

I believe that CHANGES_AND_HINTS.TXT is only valid for stable releases of Slackware. When using -current, you have to keep up with ChangeLog.txt.

To be fair, I don't think this is documented anywhere...

Hi all,

Is there already a kernel module that make a device like this to work: ID 0bda:b812 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. 802.11ac NIC ?

If not, could this module be added to the project: https://github.com/RinCat/RTL88x2BU-Linux-Driver/ ?
I've compiled and installed it here (Slackware64-current) and it is working fine.

Thanks in advance

This seems to be quite a good news for me

Pat, you need to make a single change to xedit so the line number doesn't get cut off. The line "*positionWindow.width:" needs to be changed from 90 to a higher number such as 250 because at 90 you have the line numbers getting cut off slightly when it's past 9 and above, and even won't show the full number when it's 100 or above. A number such as 250 gives you plenty of room for the current line number and xedit will work properly out of the box.

Thanks for the new udisks and friends, now we just wait for upower and elogind

Tonus · 10-29-2020, 04:50 PM

For elogind please do not give it precedence on acpid for suspend, hibernate or sleep.

The default is almost surely going to be the way of which one "just works" for the majority of the users.
