[gentoo-user] IBus + Ctlr-Shift-u - unicode hex input
(first post on the list), Hello >From https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Input_methods it would seem gentoo on IBus should support Ctrl-Shift-u to support input of unicode characters. I have Ibus compiled with USE="unicode -emoji", and with /usr/bin/ibus-setup, the emoji tab shows an entry of "Unicode code point" with . However this seems to have no effect on the C-S-u keybinding, and I am not prompted for any hex input in applications that use IBus. If I type Ctrl- or Ctrl- I do get prompted with a dialog box full of smileys. So even with USE=-emoji emoji prompting works. Where should I look for the reasons why Ctrl-Shift-u doesn't work? Does it work for others? Ibus input method switching works (for applications that support it: xkb methdods always work but I see glitches with ibus-m17n input methods), only this unicode input isn't working. Could this be an IBus bug? Apparently it works out of the box on other distros. --- Madhu
Re: [gentoo-user] plasmashell becomes sluggish with 100% CPU usage
Hello Nikos, a malfunctioning widget could cause this issue. A few years ago, I experienced this with "plasmoid-gentoo-sync-reminder"[1]. If it does not find the file "/usr/portage/metada/timestamp.chk", the CPU usage went up to 200%. Maybe it could be related with your issue? -Ramon [1] https://github.com/burlog/plasmoid-gentoo-sync-reminder/issues/1 On 24/05/2022 22:20, Nikos Chantziaras wrote: Anyone noticed anything lately with plasmashell? I think it started happening after Qt was upgraded from 5.15.3 to 5.15.4. At login, the desktop is very unresponsive and sluggish. Mouse clicks take over a second to register. The plasmashell process is hogging one core of the CPU to almost 100%. It only happens on login. Logging out and back in again usually fixes it. -- GPG public key: 5983 98DA 5F4D A464 38FD CF87 155B E264 13E6 99BF OpenPGP_signature Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Logging out and back in again usually fixes it. So I decided to just let it do that and see what happens. After about 90 seconds or so, it calms down and things become normal...
