yayyyyy your nix flake worked ALMOST
yayyyyy your nix flake worked ALMOST flawlessly. I had to enable dbus in systemd (i'm on WSL). i did it through a NixOS configuration option but not sure how you want to handle; if it doesnt go there it might be worth a byline in the docs

some console errors i'm getting that dont seem to be blocking the program but i'm reporing anyways:
i am shocked this works tbh
especially in WSL
but uhhh yay!!!

are you using it with an XR headset or just flatscreen?
flatscreen; i have a meta quest pro but havent quite gotten there yet; can do next
This did not throw an error but it seems like one:
actually pretty much everything wayland fails; maybe i have that misconfiged, stand by
oof uh probably due to a lack of a
/dev/renderd128
at a guessi'm just gonna try some nixOS / home manager settings till it works lol
haha yay
oh shit it might just be xwayland which i dont even remember installing even better
wait unless that was telescope
wait, the flake should be bypassing any op[tions i have in my machine's nix/home-manager configs right? if so, maybe this should go in the nixConfiguration options after all? gonna keep investigating if nothing is jumping out at you
i have no clue
ok it looks like installing xwayland on my end got rid of most of those warnings. do you try to install wayland or is it sidestepping me for X11?
ah i see you have
xwayland-satellite :10 & in the startup scriptxwayland is good
you prob want it here
so you dont have a pure wayland setup? i could be reading wrong but it seems like xwayland is just the x11 package with wayland-compatible wrappers
nah i use xwayland too
not... really
hmmm ok. i'm gonna see if i can get this working w pure wayland for funsies but my takeaway msg is the flake should probs include xwayland dependency if you want to unambiguously stick w x11, which i'd get from a compat perspective
i can put together a PR if you're open to including it as a runtime option e.g.
nix run github:StardustXR/telescope#waylandyea i am open to it
ah ok so i see you are calling wayland-satellite which basically just reroutes xwayland back to wayland
yes
cool, i'm gonna put a pin in this one for now lol
drawing the line at digging into the server code. just happy its working!
i got laid off on friday so this is now my full time job haha
oh yikes are you ok?
yeah i have like no savings but got a month of severance... and while i'm def still looking for new opportunities right now i really want to do the crazy thing and lean all-in on my xr app idea... i believe in it
yea!!!
the company was awesome and the pay was good but it just wasnt a good fit. They wanted an engineer but didnt want to do engineering things
also like i can door dash if i need to haha
ah ooof
what's your app idea again?
i wanna make immersive educational experiences about computing/physics. so like 3blue1brown level animations dropped into a game. once people know how to write their own compilers by scratch, next phase would be to have ppl building their own worlds that way
so like hand in hand with it will be UI controls for a full IDE experience, and that's what i want to use stardust for
oooh right yea!
interestingly yesterday i came across these guys who kind of seem to have the same idea https://primitive.io/
i sent the founder a message on linkedin to see if they wanna hire me but i'll beat 'em if i have to 😄
so i think the server is working but the hexagon launcher is not. keep you posted
explain what you mean by "not working"?
The application panicked (crashed).
Message: called
Result::unwrap() on an Err value: MessengerError { e: ReceiverDropped }whaa
ok
i think this is probably related to me messing with my wayland settings though, i'm not seeing those little eyes like i was before. i'm actually not sure what i'm supposed to be seeing at all
can you drop a screenshot of the launch display plz
uhhh for telescope?
yeah
