tell me the most ass over backward shit you do to keep your system chugging?
here’s mine:
sway struggles with my dual monitors, when my screen powers off and back on it causes sway to crash.
system service ‘switch-to-tty1.service’
[Unit]
Description=Switch to tty1 on resume
After=suspend.target
[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/switch-to-tty1.sh
[Install]
WantedBy=suspend.target
‘switch-to-tty1.service’ executes ‘/usr/local/bin/switch-to-tty1.sh’ and send user to tty1
#!/bin/bash
# Switch to tty1
chvt 1
.bashrc login from tty1 then kicks user to tty2 and logs out tty1.
if [[ "$(tty)" == "/dev/tty1" ]]; then
chvt 2
logout
fi
also tty2 is blocked from keyboard inputs (Alt+Ctrl+F2) so its a somewhat secure lock-screen which on sway lock-screen aren’t great.
can’t you just trigger a script after some udev event? Your battery would be happg
That was when I first switched to Linux so safe to say I did my best lol. A correction, the issue happened when I used the switch in my Bluetooth keyboard which connects to 3 devices but was working fine using a dedicated KVM switch with WiFi dongle. Maybe I should check again if its still a thing as its been almost an year now.
