Scrcpy not working
Chiming in (late) with the solution that works for me.
Every time I want to run scrcpy, I have to open a terminal window and run the following commands:
distrobox enter fedora
adb kill-server
adb start-server
scrcpy
If I close the scrcpy window after that, I can't just run scrcpy again, I have to restart the adb server before it will work. Killing and starting the server was also the only way I was able to get my tablet to show the prompt to authorize the connection after enabling USB debugging.
I felt like I was going insane just constantly getting ERROR: Could not find any ADB device despite using the ujust to set it up. I also ran into the issue where the .desktop files for scrcpy (old ones, I think) had an errant hyphen which caused running them to show the error failed to find executable /usr/bin/distrobox--nter: no such file or directory. Even after replacing the hyphen with a space, they do nothing unless I've just killed and restarted adb.
I would write my own .desktop file that implements the above solution but I haven't learned how that works yet with distroboxes, so I'll settle for adding to this thread for easier searchability.7 replies

Strange sleep lockscreen behavior, can't login without smashing ESC a bunch of times first
I'm running into this as well on 41.20241112.1 stable, KDE / AMD. I often leave my PC on overnight to run compute tasks (sleep is disabled), and two nights in a row now I've come back to the lock screen being fully responsive, but nothing happens when I press enter after keying in my password. No error message, no "wrong password" (it's right), nothing. The on-screen button to submit the password also does nothing.
OP's workaround of mashing the Escape key a bunch didn't change anything, but I hit "Switch User" and was then able to log back in as myself without losing any open programs. Not ideal but not the end of the world. I left compute tasks closed last night to see if they had anything to do with the issue (I have earlyoom layered), but it seems not. Locking for a few minutes is also fine, it only seems to be long durations of at least 5-6 hours.
I'm certain this issue did not occur in version 41.20241030. I started seeing it after updating from that to 41.20241112.1

Configuring Soundfonts / Playing MIDI files
Is there any way for me to test that fluidsynth's default MIDI playback is working correctly? VLC also wouldn't play MIDI files until I pointed it to one of my soundfonts with an advanced config option.
