This is gonna be a long one.

  • Lots of updates in README
  • App class and starter keymap for Ghostty terminal app (thanks to @kzh and @kpwn243)
  • Make the normal Linux TTY/virtual console shortcuts work
  • Show services log in native terminal on elementary OS
  • Get session monitor service to handle logouts better, less logging errors, more reliable stopping of all services
  • Evaluated most of the Wayland session options that are now available for LXQt on Tumbleweed (see note below)
  • Beefed up the wlroots DBus service script to handle misbehaving Wayland compositors that send some out-of-order events
  • Did the same enhancement on the COSMIC DBus service script
  • Several updates in the environment context module
  • FAILED to convert session monitor to use DBus monitoring loop instead of shell commands (reverted)
  • Fixed CentOS 7 support, again.
  • Added new funding option
  • Added process renaming to services, log viewing script, tray and preferences app and their launchers
  • Take care of adding user to systemd-journal group when necessary (for services log)
  • Keep child processes launched from Python scripts from becoming zombies
  • Make all service-related scripts exit early when "user" services aren't supported (e.g., CentOS 7 or similar)
  • Finally fixed problem on RHEL-type distros with the version of Python in the virtual environment, and build paths for pip packages. Fixed by turning a class instance attribute into a property method (venv_cmd_lst).
  • Add local bin to PATH from ~/.profile instead of relying on shell RC file

To get an LXQt Wayland session working on Tumbleweed (they are kind of at the alpha/beta stages) you'll need the package lxqt-wayland-session, then one of the actual Wayland compositor session packages:

lxqt-hyprland-session
lxqt-labwc-session
lxqt-miriway-session
lxqt-niri-session
lxqt-river-session
lxqt-sway-session
lxqt-wayfire-session

Most distros will probably end up using labwc as the default Wayland compositor. From what I understand it's meant to be the Wayland replacement for OpenBox, which is usually used as the default window manager for X11/Xorg sessions of LXQt.

Changes

Releases from this project are meant only as records of major changes. There will be automatic attachments generated by GitHub, but to get the latest version download the zip from the green <> Code ▼ button on the main page.

  • Fix the completely broken COSMIC window context method, after a COSMIC Wayland protocol was updated from version 1 to version 2 and incorporated ext_foreign_toplevel_list_v1 for handling app_id and title change events. This protocol change showed up as COSMIC alpha 2 was released and made the keymapper nonfunctional in COSMIC. There is currently a strange bug in the behavior of the COSMIC compositor regarding activated state updates, that I can't really do anything about. If shortcuts seem to stop working correctly try switching to another window and back, or toggling the maximize button.
  • Add Ptyxis as terminal option for tray icon item to show services log
  • Version bump various things and improve toshy-versions output

Toshy v24.09.0

Changes

Releases from this project are meant only as records of major changes. There will be automatic attachments generated by GitHub, but to get the latest version download the zip from the green <> Code ▼ button on the main page.

The main change here is some reworking of the environment detection module for maintainability, and to add the ability to try to identify not just the "desktop environment" but also the specific "window manager" in use. With many DEs you don' t need to know this because the same window manager is always in use. But some DEs like LXQt are very flexible and work with multiple possible window managers. Since the window context methods are specific to certain window managers, where the session type is Wayland, it's necessary to get the window manager context separately.

Some other changes:

  • Added distro support for Oreon Project (AlmaLinux-based)
  • Allow the apply-tweaks installer command to do --fancy-pants tweaks
  • Third-party extensions have been updated for GNOME 47
  • Blocked some odd Firefox zoom shortcuts
  • Fixed item label in tray icon menu
