Notes on Running Desktop Applications in Containers

Desktop Applications in Containers

This includes some notes about running desktop applications (e.g. KCalc, winecfg) in containers.

Caution

Things described here have security implications; in general, it is assumed that the containerization exists only to isolate the filesystem against accidental modification.

KDE Plasma Change Color Scheme on Night Color

This is a script plus a systemd (user) unit to change color schemes when Night Color kicks in (to get dark mode).

This is basically a workaround until maybe someday Plasma gets proper support.

The color schemes are named in plasma-color-scheme-on-night-color.sh line 16 and 18. For a hack it's not worth makig it configurable.

Write the systemd config file in ~/.config/systemd/user/plasma-color-scheme-on-night-color.service and the script in ~/opt/scripts/plasma-color-scheme-on-night-color.sh.

Once the files are written, use systemctl --user enable --now plasma-color-scheme-on-night-color to turn on.
