I've easily & smoothly configured KDE Konnect to work in Fluxbox WM

Since this command...
`xfce4-screenshooter -S -d 2 --window -s "$HOME/Pictures/$(date +%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S)_Screenshot2.png"`
...segfaults in fluxbox atm I did not bother with a screenshot, because xfce4-screenshooter rocks way too much to use another one

At this moment I'm roughly tuning a very nice FluxBox Desktop in an OpenSource POSIX driven OS.
I'm working on tuning my Desktops Environments in such a way that it doesn't matter whether I run them in Linux or *BSD
That way I'll just fire up the Operating System inject my own configuration for the desktop environment fire up X.org and then start working
FluxBox has been a favorite window / desktop manager of mine a couple of decades ago.
Since it has been written efficient it's blazingly fast
I combine tools that I love from Xfce with FluxBox so that my muscle memory for shortcuts can be used in a super smooth manner
Replied in thread
Fair enough. #Screenshot attached. #Fluxbox with #emacs split paned and a few grouped windows. (Why don't other WM / DEs have this?)
Need to download and compile at least wmglobe.
Would love to redo the dock apps to be 128 px instead of 64. Of course, back in the day, 64 was almost too big.
Also, got my across-the-top conky reworked to be on the far left.
Now that the important stuff is taken care of, I should prolly do some work.
My TTh #AdultESOL class finished Thursday. My SSu class finished today! I have two weekends off and have my TTh nights back (not doing that class again anytime soon - just too much during the regular k-12 school year).
So, of course, the first thing I did this afternoon was have #ChatGPT help me come up with #Mozilla #Firefox userChrome.js to make the keyboard shortcuts more like #emacs.
Also created a script to grab webcam frames for #conky to display (#fluxbox #linux) on the desktop.
TIL about fedi.video, I will read first but I never knew I needed it ;)
fedi.videoFedi.VideoHighlighting the most interesting content on PeerTube, and uploading PD and CC videos too. Bigotry and conspiracy theories are forbidden.

KDEConnect is a powerful piece of connection software. Even when you only bounce off the Android client with your Androids (plural) you will enjoy the program. I can see that a of lot coding time (not difficult for a seasoned programmer) and debugging effort (can be tedious if you have no alpha / beta testers) has been put into the code.
KDE Connect celebrated 10 years in 2023, now its 12, so quite mature for software. Esp opensource.
Problems connecting Linux (or any other) often mean that your distro maintainer did something unexpected (IMHO stupid) by enabling an fw pointing to your LAN (sick!) with all incoming ports blocked.
- Blocked ports on LANs DONT enhance security, and give flase sense of superiour security.
- Not stating that explicitly on the installer of the fw (default base install!) means searching to and fro, since the fw pointing local will be checked rudimentary to last, wasting brain cycles
The moment fw errors have been terminated (T2) your desktop client will work without a hitch, doing handshaking and later functions which you enable one by one.
Android client has accross the board an unfightable problem which is powermgmt regardless of flags put for 24/7 background operation. Esp cheap Xiaomis have that. The ones of EUR 175 (USD same) to EUR 1200, have less of that esp the near and full flagships.
Its unfightable untill you remove Android OS and replace with a flash on your phone.
Im having fun with Android client

Now I have YAT (yet another toy) to play with on all platforms I dwell upon. Love KDE Connect features.
In fact I played with it for a few hours yesterday.

The background on that particular desktop is a photograph that I've taken myself years back {landscape nature}.
I'm a seasoned photographer using DSLR cameras
There was another copy of that screenshot which had an interesting background also, that I removed. In the Mastodon client I was running on that Android, sensitive flag was not found

The fact that thorugh KDE_Connect the Androids talk with eachother smoothly has given me nice control surfaces over them. KDE_Connect is still a succes here, so I'm quite pleased.

Followed the gsconnect route as adviced (KDEConnect page),
installed kdeC afterwards, to use the gsconnect plugin
Installed both are massive, but good handshake results were the mission.
However no Android devices are detected, none of my four Androids are seen.
I'm unistalling gsconnect and kde connect as I type

Its now on schedule too. The page is also bookmarked. I usually hunt and dig in
```
man kdeconnect
```
then use the fixes in there
Thank you.

For now I've removed KDE Connect from the miniPC
I shall study the manpages online and then decide if the program is worth the 24MB extra on tha machine. I love what the Android client does so that will go on all of my Androids, because its just handy

Correct the desktop client does not see any of the Androids running KDE Connect

This is another example of the Android's controlling each other's programs and interfaces. It goes very smooth from Android to Android

This is an example of the plug-and-play results from the Androids who are happily sending commands to each other

However handshaking with either Android has failed with the desktop. The network of all devices is the same, no VLANs defined so they should see eachother fine
I see this empty screen so I'll need to read the manpages on KDEConnect Linuix to see which switches I need to use so it sees the Androids which are already happily chatting with eachother

Up to now I've had a plug-play results with KDE connect on two of my Androids regarding handshaking & discovery.
On the desktop which runs XFCE (Ill correct the main toot) the demands were **hefty** on the dependencies (24MB using gnome's libs for their filemanager which also pulled the required KDE libs in)
