i think GNOME Online Accounts, Calendar and Contacts heavily rely on evolution-data-server.

It did not come with my fresh install. At least i get this message when trying to start Contacts from Commandline:

flatpak run org.gnome.Contacts

(gnome-contacts:2): gnome-contacts-WARNING **: 18:14:47.497: contacts-esd-setup.vala:34: Couldn't load EDS SourceRegistry: Fehler beim Aufruf von StartServiceByName für org.gnome.evolution.dataserver.Sources5: Unit evolution-source-registry.service not found.

When looking for the Unit file i couldn't find anything in /etc/systemd/

Would i need to install it via abroot exec?

After successful installation, the first setup program is still visible in the gnome applications menu.

Problems with the GNOME Software

• Snap's - They are not appearing in the application store nor can they be installed by the terminal.
• It is worth pointing out that I did not find any .deb applications in the store
• -> The adoption of eddy - a .deb installer may be a solution. This .deb installer can be found on Pop!_OS (where it comes pre-installed) as well as an elementary OS (Can be installed by the store)

Suggestions:

And I would like to suggest the possibility to add the support in the .aur and .dnf on gnome-software using apx.

As well as the possibility of creating or downloading/installing subsystems from the application Vanilla OS Control Center, I believe this would make it easier for users to avoid the terminal.

Hello,
I have installed build from December 21 2022 and I have problem with mouse scaling in apps installed with apx.
For example, I have installed Xournal++. When scaling is set to 100%, there is no problem. When I set scaling to 200%, when I hover over application, mouse cursor is really small. When I enable fractional scaling and set scaling to 150%, the cursor is really small and also cropped. I have recorded it on video: https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/45005362/208997730-75985812-1ef2-457b-9435-ca75dd0cf865.mp4
Also, I'm in Wayland session.

Issue Description

When executing apx shell, the output is

ERRO[0000] User-selected graph driver "overlay" overwritten by graph driver "vfs" from database - delete libpod local files to resolve

Steps to Reproduce

• Install VanillaOS and NVidia propriatary graphics.
• Run apx shell.

Proceeded to follow first setup instructions after installing the OS while not connected to WIFI / Internet. No errors occurred. Still, things like LibreOffice, Nvidia drivers or Flatpak do not seem to be installed.

Tried the first setup a second time after connecting to WIFI - did not fix the issue.

Version: Vanilla OS 22.10 stable
May be similar to #36 or #28

I recently discovered the MoreWaita icon theme and I believe it is worthy of being included in the OS:

Hello,

I just installed Vanilla OS (Build from December 17th) and the batter status does not update.
I think the Problem is with Kernel.
At least on OpenSUSE/Fedora it worked again with the next Kernel update. There was a workaround on Fedora that I know but they update the Kernels frequently so it got fixed fast.

Not sure how to handle it on Vanilla and how often you update the Kernel?

I can't say for sure it is the Kernel.

cheers

I would like to have the dotnet MIME types available by default in VanillaOS.
An example is available at the following gits: https://gist.github.com/johnnyasantoss/6cdb25d164db3e101e5973b217c8dc49
This is required, for example, in order to have the flatpak package of Rider to be available to open .sln and .csproj files

This requires patching gnome-software (removing ubuntu patches).

1st Image : After installing on VM and restarting I was drop into Partition B (State B) and its Future Partition A (State A)

2nd Image: After finishing first setup and rebooting I was booted back auto into State B (No swap happened) And flathub was not able to install its repos.

3rd Image: Had reboot and manually select grub State A instead of being auto to finally be able to finish installing flathub repos.

Probably leftovers? I don't get why anyone needs 4 terminal emulators.

Issue Description

With stock Ubuntu and Fedora, GNOME is able to automatically detect and apply appropriate scales (100%/200%) to different monitors. This does not happen with VanillaOS.

When trying to manually set the scale, setting the scale of one affect both displays, i.e. they can either both 100% or 200% for some reason.

Steps to Reproduce

• Install VanillaOS and plug in two displays of different appropriate scales.
• Observe the appropriate scale is not automatically applied.
• Manually setting scale of one affect both.

After the installation (that worked well), when the configuration is done with "First Setup" and the system is rebooted, the chosen apps from First Setup and the Nvidia Drivers are not installed. I did a lot of installation tries and tried a few different things to solve like turning the internet on and off during installation and First Setup, entered in Xorg session before the First Setup, and finally tried to install nvidia-driver-525(and 510, 470, etc) package manually inside de ABRoot Shell. This last try gave-me the following problem:
Errors were encoutered while processing: linux-image-5.19.0-26-generic E:Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

The only way the setup worked was by skipping the Nvidia driver installation in First Setup. Then the chosen apps were installed normally but in the Vanilla OS Control Center it says that there are no drivers available.

In the Discord someone said about possibility of my GPU not been listed in the Ubuntu drivers list but I already checked that, I'll link the image of the output.

when enabling support for appimage it would download this new appimage launcher made in gtk4

I think it's a good idea, since the distro's proposal is to be the closest to vanilla gnome

could use AppImageLauncher from TheAssassin as a base for this new interface in gtk
https://github.com/TheAssassin/AppImageLauncher

I have another issue wit Gnome Online Accounts.
https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GnomeOnlineAccounts

By setting up a Nextcloud connection i can choose syncing Calendar, Contacts and Files. Calendar and Contacts are working fine after this #44 fix 👌.

However, the WebDAV Connection is not showing up in Nautilus Sidebar as it normally does by switching on File sync in the configuration of the Online Account.

I dug into it a little bit, i am not familiar with how this is done in GNOME though. From how i understand a mount should have been generated automatically which shows up in the sidebar then.

There is something to read about GVFS which is a virtual filesystem implementation for GIO --> GVolumes.

About the Integration with GOA:
https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GnomeOnlineAccounts/Debugging

About the GNOME Virtual File System:
https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/gvfs/

• gvfs-mount -l command is not available.
• gvfs-goa-volume-monitor binary is not shipped with the installation (i assume)

• The GVfs integration is hinged on the org.gnome.OnlineAccounts.Files interface. GVfs' GOA volume monitor exposes all account objects implementing this interface as GVolumes that appear in the above output. You can mount and unmount volumes from the GTK+ UI or with gvfs-mount:

Perhaps it just helps to have the whole gvfs aboard (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs)

I got it to work. I installed debian a while ago and I had the same issue. so I wrote a guide on how to fix it and I applied it on vanilla os and it worked. here is the guide: https://github.com/alihassan1989/dotfile/blob/main/config/broadcom-debian

instead of "sudo apt-get install broadcom-sta-" it must be "sudo abroot exec apt install broadcom-sta-" and so on.
and you must reboot your system for the changes to take effect, so expect to reboot your system few times in order for your wifi to work.

I think installing network-manager is not necessary in Gnome. I wrote this guide when I was using DWM.

can you please verify/validate those steps to make sure that it will not cause any harm to the file system. thank you

AppImages are currently not working cause they require FUSE

Hello,

In the 29.11.22 build, the installer fails

It works on the 06.11.22 build.

Here som logs in the sceeenshots.

When I try build an iso this error apears:
GPG error: https://repo.vanillaos.org/kinetic ./ InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY DE18F70058D147C8
E: The repository 'https://repo.vanillaos.org/kinetic ./ InRelease' is not signed.

What can I do to solve this?

Ubuntu comes with vim by default but has the binary renamed, not aliased, to vi.
According to the package manager though, vim isn't installed and if you do sudo apt install vim , it basically installs another copy of vim as the vim binary but this time, unrenamed.

To be honest, I don't know why Ubuntu does this because vi as a command is used far, far less compared to vim as a command.

Looking to add amdgpu.ppfeaturemask=0xffffffff to my GRUB config so that I can undervolt and overclock my GPU with CoreCtrl.

So far, I do not believe we can edit the grub config and have it save successfully.

Would also love to include "quiet loglevel=0". #38

• Send new distinst to Launchpad
• A/B partition names are not properly set/switched
• Test with vanilla-systemd-units, ABRoot should be able to transact
• Fix gnome-control-center not building via launchpad

i've tried the auto partitioning as well as manual and both resulted in the same thing happening

Entries in /etc/crypttab are ignored, probably because cryptsetup doesn't run on boot.

• Have an encrypted partition
• Open transactional shell
• Add it to the /etc/crypttab, like media UUID=your-uuid none
• Close transactional shell
• Reboot
• You won't be asked for password and the partition will not be unlocked

Hi I have been reading about vanilla os and how now manages immutability through ABroot. Overall is a really cool tech like the ones of chromeos and deepin are using to have a 2 root partition system but there is something I still can't understand: the space requirements of 40gb (20 for each root) to use it. If vanilla os was using ext4 I would get it, like in deepin, You need to copy the contents from root to root thus the need of space but vanilla os by default does not use ext4 it uses btrfs (according to this https://vanillaos.org/2022/11/01/vanilla-installer.html). Si why use a sepárate partition and 20 extra GB when You can use snapshots to achieve the same with only 1 partition and only the diff space, using btrfs reflinks is also way more faster than copying 20gb of data from 1 partition to another. Has the default filesystem changed thus making a 2nd partition a need? Thanks in advice.
PD: this is not because of hate, all the contrary, is because I want to install vanilla os but I only have 25gb available for root 😕.

After the Vanilla Control Center update I tried to install the Nvidia Drivers that now are listed in the Drivers page but it didn't work. After clicking "Apply Changes" the "Confirm Reboot" screen just pop up instantly and when rebooted the drivers are not installed. Tried to do a new installation with the ISO released today (30/12) too and got the same problem.

I want to be able to use this in the recently out-of-beta Windows Subsystem for Linux.

i have installed docker and all of its dependencies in the transactional shell and after reboot i tested docker in the terminal and everything worked fine. I need the docker gui but I can't get it to install. I even downloaded the .deb package and ran apx install --sideload path/to/package.deb (I used the actual location and package name) but I keep getting an error. I tried another .deb package but still received an error.

here are some screenshots of the errors:

My laptop is a framework and it is using the Goodix fingerprint sensor but it is not detected by gnome.
I tried to install the package by using this (told by Dharun Kirhna) :

sudo abroot exec apt install fprintd

But instead, it made me stuck on the login screen.

For info, it is a fresh install of vanilla os.
