| mmikowski | m4t: Try running xsettingsd in a terminal and then hit ctrl+C. That might get things sorted. | 22:47 |
|---|---|---|
| m4t | mmikowski: thanks. permanently or until the app is restarted/bugs out again? | 22:48 |
| mmikowski | https://kfocus.org/wf/displays.html#bkm_scale_displays | 22:48 |
| m4t | 'which xsettingsd' shows it's not installed | 22:48 |
| mmikowski | Are you running Wayland or X11? | 22:48 |
| m4t | X11 | 22:48 |
| m4t | using amdgpu driver, MATE desktop, picom compositor | 22:49 |
| mmikowski | well, then you probably want that :) | 22:49 |
| mmikowski | ooooh... :P | 22:49 |
| m4t | yeah i didn't have it installed on 22.04 before reinstalling for 23.04 either (just checked a snapshot of the old install) | 22:49 |
| mmikowski | On KDE Plasma at least, doing that gets the GTK syncing to QT all sorted. | 22:49 |
| mmikowski | Well, usually. | 22:50 |
| mmikowski | And the settings stay after relog. | 22:50 |
| m4t | MATE adds /etc/profile.d/mate-qt.sh which sets 'export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=gtk2' | 22:50 |
| m4t | it works...until it randomly during runtime "resets" and starts showing white elements where it should be grey | 22:50 |
| mmikowski | So don't know if that will work with MATE. | 22:50 |
| m4t | like it forgets the theme | 22:50 |
| mmikowski | Yeah, again similar in plasma, although usually the problem is scaling. | 22:51 |
| mmikowski | But I have seen both. | 22:51 |
| m4t | kind of related question, i do have qt5-gtk-platformtheme installed as well (provides /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins/platformthemes/libqgtk3.so) but i don't see any way to actually use it | 22:52 |
| mmikowski | "xsettingsd is a daemon that implements the XSETTINGS specification...It can serve as an alternative to gnome-settings-daemon...for users who are not using the GNOME desktop [but want GTK configs]" | 22:53 |
| m4t | ah i see, thanks for clarifying | 22:53 |
| mmikowski | that's from apt-cache show xsettingsd | 22:53 |
| m4t | yeah mate has its fork of gsd called mate-settings-daemon: matt 392435 2014 0 Jul12 ? 00:00:08 /usr/bin/mate-settings-daemon | 22:53 |
| mmikowski | Yeah, I was thinking there had to be something like that. | 22:54 |
| mmikowski | maybe just run that once in the terminal instead? | 22:54 |
| m4t | ** (mate-settings-daemon:795655): WARNING **: 18:54:23.407: Failed to acquire org.mate.SettingsDaemon | 22:54 |
| m4t | already running | 22:54 |
| mmikowski | Yeah, ... right | 22:54 |
| mmikowski | maybe restart it? sudo systemctl restart mate-settings-daemon ? | 22:55 |
| mmikowski | or something like that. | 22:55 |
| mmikowski | hmm, keepassxc we had to config to avoid weird artifacts. | 22:56 |
| mmikowski | KeePassXC > View > Theme | 22:59 |
| mmikowski | well I | 22:59 |
| mmikowski | 'm sorry I couldn't help more, but gotta run for now | 22:59 |
| mmikowski | Hope that helps | 22:59 |
| mmikowski | at least a bit. | 22:59 |
| m4t | thanks | 23:02 |
| m4t | yeah with keepassxc i'm using the Classic (Platform-native) theme | 23:02 |
