#phosh
Dear distro maintainers and "i build my own stuff" people:
In case you want to check out 0.46 relesae upfront: we've tagged the first releases candidates (0.46~rc1) of #phosh and related components today. 
Release is planned 2025-03-31 (https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/wikis/Releases)
The bulk of the changes landed already so hopefully it's only bugfixes from here on.
In preparation for the upcoming phosh release we've released new versions of #gmobile 0.2.0 and #feedbackd 0.8.0. Feedbackd is now more flexible regarding haptic feedback for events so if e.g. feedback is too intrusive (or too weak) you can consider submitting adjustment for your device to https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/feedbackd-device-themes/
@NekoCWD @postmarketOS Nice! It made current (unreleased) #phoc crash 
but that's fixed (https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phoc/-/merge_requests/663)

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (09, 10/2025): Too much to put in a title
so yes the rumors are correct (this was leaked on reddit a few days ago, oh well)
the #FLX1 will be getting support for hooking up to external displays. the difference here compared to other approaches is that it will be running full #GNOME shell instead of #Phosh desktop mode (with some integration). as much as we love Phosh, GNOME shell simply provides a superior experience on a large display (and our community members voted for this too)
The initial draft MR to put a wallpaper on #phosh's lockscreen is now >1.5y old but it's not draft any longer (I'll spare you the details why this took so long).
Oh, and regarding the calendar's notification not doing any buzzing: just assign any feedback to the `notification-new-generic` , event in the feedback theme.
We don't do that atm when a notification doesn't set a category to not make people go crazy.
Now with more nuanced haptic we might emit s.th. by default though, so I've opened https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/feedbackd/-/merge_requests/160 but this is already configurable in current releases, just need to add an event to the theme.

The #Librem5 is a full #Linux phone. #Phosh looks very similar to my #GNOME desktop. I can ssh into the Librem 5 without any issues. It is designed to give me full control and #freedom. Like any #FOSS product. I appreciate that daily, and I can accept some inconvenience to have software freedom. That is of course a personal choice. Keep in mind that #Purism only earns money when selling the phone. Not by spying on you and profiling you.
@benedikt reported some issues with #xwaylandvideobridge and #phosh and it turned out it uses _NET_WM_WINDOW_OPACITY which was proposed > 
years ago to be added to the wm-spec (https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xdg/2003-December/001413.html) but never landed although Qt, GTK and others use (or used) it.
That just changed (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xdg/xdg-specs/-/merge_requests/97) and we also already have #wlroots support now too so phosh can happily use it too.
But maybe I'm the only person that finds this kind of archeology exciting .
@furilabs What is happening in the picture? Am I seeing wired external display?
Not pleased with #Fedora KDE #PlasmaMobile on my StarLite. It’s fairly slow, Bluetooth wouldn’t connect easily, and screen locking broke.
The screen locked after 5 minutes but it said the Lock Screen was broken. I had to Ctrl-Alt-F3 into a text terminal and loginctl unlock-session 2. What if I didn’t have a keyboard connected?
Later the Lock Screen worked but it demanded a PIN. I never set a PIN. Thankfully it accepted my password typed on my keyboard.
Let’s see if #Phosh on Debian works.
In case you are running #postmarketos with #phosh : with the latest packages (pmo 24.12.) the GUI was no longer starting up on my librem5, ending up with the login prompt on the console. The reason is that "phoc" does not know the parameter -v , and removing that entry in /usr/bin/phosh-session brings back the GUI upon a reboot:
exec $SYSTEMD_CAT "${COMPOSITOR}" -v -S -C "${PHOC_INI}" -E "bash -lc 'exec ${GNOME_SESSION} --disable-acceleration-check --session=phosh'"
I don't know why i like #GNOMEMobile more then #Phosh :D
Ever since adding the `Haptic` API to #feedbackd for games I wanted to make the `VibraPattern` available to feedback themes as well as this allows for more nuanced feedback.
This allows us to e.g. use more subtle feedback for OSK button presses than for 
of incoming SMS.
Opened MRs to make that possible and
while at that I made the maximum strength for all events confiurable too. It's a bit hard to
