I want to for exemple even when my headphones are plugged have the ablility to play audio through my speakers using qpwgraph and stuff like that its just a cool little thing I wanted to do also you can’t do that in pavucontrol natively when you plug in headphones its as if your speaker doesn’t exist you can’t for example play the same audio on your headphones and speakers at the same time or play different audio its relatively niche kinda thing but its handy for the few times I needed it to be honest

update so after realising I have ACPI: button: The lid device is not compliant to SW_LID. in my logs I found a couple of bug reports in the kernel https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=192231 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202421

so I guess this can be as well a kernel issue

so I made a bug report in the arch linux bug reporter: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2119116

so yeah I guess and I hope someone understand the problem fix it with udev or the linux kernel directly or at least give me the steps to do so anyway yeah that’s all

and I guess if this plan didn’t work I have to learn C to fix the issue

there is one problem with those links they are forcing a whole device to be another device and I just want the key with scan code d7 to be state 0 of SW_LID and d8 to be state 1

and fixing this issue in the udev level will automatically fix everything like I will finally be able to use logind.conf

yeah read that bug report and to be honest I don’t understand the developer standpoint like sorry at least give where can I find the documentation for udev rules

• even if I use libinput these are the id_input available: ID_INPUT_KEYBOARD, ID_INPUT_KEY, ID_INPUT_MOUSE, ID_INPUT_TOUCHPAD, ID_INPUT_TOUCHSCREEN, ID_INPUT_TABLET, ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK, ID_INPUT_ACCELEROMETER

and there is no lid one so yeah I don’t know is this problem unfixable with udev rules alone + I made this whole thread just to not make that bug report one of the other 1.9k other open ones except the fact that I wanna improve my experience with linux

+_+

well as far as I understand adding “AttrLidSwitchReliability=unreliable” will not actually fix the issue and I hope this issue is fixable to be honest

so I made a follow up post: https://lemmy.ml/post/4441946 and a bug report: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/28942 if you are interested in helping

basically I guess this bug report will explain everything: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/28942 and I made this post as a followup: https://lemmy.ml/post/4441946

• basically in my laptop I have 3 problems pressing fn+f2/3 (supposedly brightness keys) it gives the same scan code and I am lost on how to give one of them up and the other down brightness second problem fn+f12 (basically the airport mode aka stop wifi) it doesn’t even give a scancode in the first place third problem and the biggest is explained in that bug report and if you have any idea how to deal with this help I guess

and how did I set up the different sinks to headphone and speakers basically just used hdajackretask to make it so idep_hp = yes and then rebooted my laptop and yeah that was basically it and I am in the process of writing a script to change between the two sinks on the fly
