Quickshell segfaulted mid-session -- a Qt image-teardown bug, three cores in the journal -- and the desktop stayed bar-less until a person noticed and knew what to type, because the shell ran as a bare compositor child and panama-crash-watch's report had no notification server left to arrive on. The shell is now panama-quickshell.service, started per-session by autostart.lua like every other Panama unit and never enabled globally: Restart=on-failure turns the same crash into a two-second flicker, verified by sending the running shell a real SIGSEGV and watching it return, and the crash report now lands because the restarted shell is serving the bus by the time the watcher looks. The two contracts that restart the shell learned to do it through the unit, or the unit's own restart races them with a second shell. Recordings can hear: a recorderAudio preference -- none by default, GNOME's default too, because a screencast that silently captured the microphone is an incident -- adds system audio or the microphone through PulseAudio's @DEFAULT_*@ aliases, so the capture follows whatever device Sound settings has chosen. The bar shows the active keyboard layout whenever more than one is configured, mapped from xkb's own registry (evdev.lst) because deriving a code from a description guesses wrong immediately -- "German" is de, not ge -- and updated live from Hyprland's activelayout event. One layout, no indicator, which is GNOME's behavior too. And presentation mode: Caffeine plus Do Not Disturb as one quick-settings tile, restoring both exactly as found -- the half you forget to arm before plugging into a projector is the one that fires a message preview onto the big screen.

Description=The Panama shell (Quickshell)
|
|
Documentation=https://github.com/gibbyb/Panama
|
|
# Started per-session by hypr/autostart.lua, never enabled globally --
|
|
# graphical-session.target is active under GNOME too, and two shells fighting
|
|
# over org.freedesktop.Notifications is the exact bug the notification-daemon
|
|
# warning in change-settings exists to prevent.
|
|
#
|
|
# The unit exists for one property a compositor child cannot have: the shell
|
|
# comes BACK. Quickshell segfaulted mid-session (a Qt image-teardown bug, not
|
|
# this configuration) and the desktop stayed bar-less until someone noticed
|
|
# and knew what to type. Restart=on-failure turns that into a two-second
|
|
# flicker -- and panama-crash-watch's report of the crash finally has a
|
|
# notification server to arrive on, because the restarted shell is serving
|
|
# again by the time the watcher's bus wait comes around.
