Hi I would like to add my point of view to the polkit debate. I don't think polkit is bad or unnecessary, it simply has a completely different usecase/scope than sudo has. sudo is for starting a process as an other user provided some preconditions (group/user allowed to use it, supplied

Hi, What's the point of trying to detect if eudev is run in a container? Is it just to not start it in that case? Would it just fail to start in them otherwise? Is that actually a problem? And could eudev not just be uninstalled in a container? In any case, I don't like the idea of doing hacks

Hi I've had that problem as well. It also prevents the auto-show feature of the `onboard` onscreen keyboard from working (which was annoying on my Librem 5 Phone, where I need that feature). To me, it seams to be caused by a combination of something `lightdm` does, and something

An alternative to "gpm" would be "consolation". It's based on "libinput". I've never tried serial mice, but you can probably install & start "inputattach", and then "consolation" should probably pick it up if it's installed. inputattach should also work with other things such as X11 and
