I see, so I could remove it, but wouldn’t I still see the same behavior, since firefox nightly apparently also uses the firefox window class?

Hmm, but I thought the StartupWMClasses in the desktop files are correct? I thought the issue is that firefox-nightly uses the firefox class in addition to the firefox-nightly class

The desktop files are named firefox.desktop and firefox-nightly.desktop, both in /usr/share/applications.

EDIT: For completeness, I also checked the window classes of the regular firefox:

It can be observed that it uses only the window class firefox, but twice?

I just checked the .desktop file for firefox nightly. It contains only firefox-nightly as its StartupWMClass. So I went ahead and also checked the window class firefox nightly is running as and found the following:

Does this mean that firefox nightly is using both, the firefox and the firefox-nightly window classes?

I use Firefox nightly and recently switched to Wayland (KDE). Ever since I switched, the taskbar often displays Firefox nightly with the regular Firefox icon, and the name Firefox instead of Firefox nightly. After reading your blog post I’m thinking that the culprit could be an incorrect StartupWMClass. But I don’t get why this issue never showed on X11 then.

Damn, but I’m not sure if I agree with gregp’s resolution of the bug. The way I understand the changes in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1964046, it should still use the system theme, but rendered by firefox itself. However, the current state is that it doesn’t follow the system theme anymore :/

EDIT: I just saw this comment: https://lemmy.world/comment/17957836 And yep, that’s correct. I’m also using the Papirus icon theme, when I change the theme to breeze or something else, the buttons in firefox titlebar also reflect this change after a restart. So Firefox is now using the window-{maximize,minimize,close,....}-symbolic icons from the icon theme and not from the window decorations setting.

I have the same issue since one or two months, I’m on Firefox Nightly 142.0a1 currently.

For me it looks like this:

Firefox on the left, Dolphin (which uses the system titlebar control buttons) on the right.

A few months ago, firefox also used the system titlebar control buttons. When I noticed the change at first, I also searched for solution online and in about:config, but didn’t find anything. All other solutions posted here sadly don’t work:

• browser.tabs.inTitlebar only adds a standalone titlebar, like you noted.
• When searching for non-native in about:config, I don’t see any titlebar buttons option that I can turn off.
• Vertical Tabs are already disabled for me in the settings.

If anyone finds a solution to this, I would be happy to be notified. Thanks in advance!

They’re asking about the password prompt for the disk encryption, which is shown before the rootfs can be accessed. Thus, installing a display manager to the rootfs will not help. Furthermore, a display manager serves the purpose of logging in users, not unlocking an encrypted partition.

Thanks for your reply! Linus didn’t only call out people posting flame replies, but also folks interested in a serious discussion on that topic, who also contributed to the kernel before (see PeterCxy’s blog: https://typeblog.net/55833/getting-called-paid-actor-by-linus-torvalds). Most people simply wanted to know specifically which compliance requirement lead to the removal of russian maintainers. Linus never responded to these questions and called out people asking for that as russian trolls. AFAIK we still don’t know the exact reasons for the removal, which is just intransparent.

IMO By not answering these reasonable questions and calling people out as russian trolls, Linus did exactly what russian trolls want: cause disarray in the kernel community.

Get your head examined. And get the fuck out of here with this shit.

Yes, language like this is clearly unacceptable in a productive discussion.

Offtopic, but this reminded me that the Linux kernel has a CoC. Aren’t the recent comments by Linus on the removal of russian maintainers, where he called several kernel developers paid actors, a CoC violation as well? Or have these comments w.r.t. to the CoC already been discussed?

We’re not in disagreement about whether rustdesk is malware or not, but I think the developers being incompetent is also a perfectly valid reason to avoid it. Sure, they have fixed most if not all major issues that were reported to them eventually, but who knows when they’ll mess something up again.

Also, some issues weren’t really resolved timely, take for example the issue where rustdesk autostarted on each boot. That one has been actively ignored for over a year, which is the opposite of building trust.

What about the certificate installation on windows? Besides, I never claimed it’s malware, but it’s certainly software I wouldn’t trust.

When running older Rustdesk versions on wayland it would display a notification saying “Rustdesk doesn’t support Wayland yet”, containing a button labeled “Fix it”, which is the button you’re referring to. There’s no way for the user to know that clicking this button will edit their GDM config and disable Wayland.

This thread has a lot of reasons against rustdesk and also discusses some alternatives: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/21632052

This. I also use udiskie on sway, works perfectly.

Yep, I’m not a Rust expert either, but this is pretty cursed. The comments on this post have some more examples of bad rustdesk code: https://lobste.rs/s/njfvjb/rustdesk_with_tailscale_on_arch_linux

Rustdesk looks good on the outside, but if you look inside, it has a really bad codebase and has done some sketchy stuff in the past.

Last year, it installed custom root certificates as trusted on windows, which is a huge security risk: https://github.com/rustdesk/rustdesk/discussions/6444

On linux systems, it forced its own autostart with no option to disable this behavior: https://github.com/rustdesk/rustdesk/issues/4863

In the past, when it didn’t have Wayland support yet, it edited your GDM config and just disabled wayland: https://github.com/rustdesk/rustdesk/blob/1.1.9/src/platform/linux.rs#L411-L422

Furthermore, the code quality is really bad. 90% of the linux platform-dependant code is just executing shell commands and parsing their output, while the same could be achieved in a safe way with proper rust builtins: https://github.com/rustdesk/rustdesk/blob/master/src/platform/linux.rs

While I agree that Rustdesk works pretty flawlessly, the codebase and the behavior of the developers made me distrust the software and I don’t recommend using it.

Apparently it’s a rotovap (rotary evaporator). Had to look up the tweet for that: https://twitter.com/SigmaAldrich/status/1600505413602091009

Try running ssh with -vv to get a better idea of the problem when no ssh agent is running.
