Omarchy installed zram-generator but never shipped a config for it, so the
only zram tuning any machine had was whatever the ISO wrote once, and the VM
sysctls were untouched kernel defaults aimed at spinning disks.
The generator's own default caps the device at 4G, which on a large machine
sends reclaim to the hibernation swapfile far earlier than it needs to go.
Ship min(ram / 2, 8192) instead, matching what Fedora settles on, and state
the priority explicitly since it has to sit above the pri=0 that
omarchy-hibernation-setup gives the disk swapfile.
The four sysctls follow from swap being RAM rather than a disk. swappiness
above 100 says evicting an anonymous page beats dropping a page-cache page
that would have to be read back, which is true once swap is compressed
memory. page-cluster drops to one page per fault because the default of 8
buys readahead for a seek zram doesn't have and pays a decompression for
each page. Zeroing watermark_boost_factor stops fragmentation from producing
reclaim bursts while memory is still free, and raising watermark_scale_factor
gives kswapd room to reclaim in the background instead of letting allocations
stall in direct reclaim. The last two are what actually addresses the stutter
people notice and misread as swap being used too eagerly: proactive swapping
to zram is the cure, and synchronous direct reclaim is the disease.
Every ISO-installed machine already has an unowned zram-generator.conf, which
pacman would refuse to overwrite, so both upgrade paths need it listed.

Reported to suit the XPS 16 as well, so the tuning now matches both machines and
the directory is named for the pair rather than the one model.
Gating moves from the DMI product name to the product SKU, which is what Dell keys
the Cirrus speaker firmware on -- 10280db9 for the XPS 14, 10280dba for the XPS 16
-- so it identifies the speaker hardware itself instead of a marketing name. SKUs
are compared as whole values, not substrings, so this cannot widen to the rest of
the XPS line the way a short product-name match would: product_family on these
machines is "Dell Laptops".
match_sku and match_dmi are now lists, letting one tuning name every model it
covers. A plain string still works as a single entry.
The measurements in tuning.conf were taken on the XPS 14 (0DB9). The XPS 16 is
covered on report rather than measurement, and tuning.conf and the graph both say
so, because the profile's bass lift and high-pass were fitted against one
machine's excursion and distortion limits.

Laptop speakers ship voiced by the vendor's Windows DSP layer, which Linux does
not get. A tuning restores that as a PipeWire filter-chain in front of the
internal speaker sink, matched to the machine by DMI string and expected sink.
Adding a laptop is a directory under default/audio/tunings with two files and no
new code: matching is data. The XPS 14 DA14260 tuning included here was derived by
measuring the xps-audio-linux EasyEffects profile (MIT) and fitting a biquad chain
to it, so no impulse response or other upstream asset is redistributed. It measures
1.24 dB RMS against that reference, and matches its dynamic range within 0.1 LU --
the reference's multiband compressor turned out to contribute nothing, so a linear
chain replaces it. Bass Q is capped deliberately: a closer magnitude fit swung
group delay 31 ms across 63-80 Hz, which smears bass transients.
The graph runs as its own PipeWire client under its own config name rather than
loading into the audio daemon. The daemon only reads its config at startup, so a
daemon-loaded tuning could only be switched by restarting PipeWire -- which drops
every PulseAudio client's connection, and applications that do not reconnect
(Spotify) then have to be restarted by hand. Hosting it separately also contains
failure, since a malformed tuning breaks only that service.
Three things about the surrounding audio graph needed fixing for this to behave:
- Volume must live downstream of the tuning. omarchy-audio-output-sink is now the
single definition of which sink an output's volume really uses, shared by the
volume keys, the output switcher's OSD and the audio panel, so they cannot
disagree. It resolves the current default output, which keeps it correct when
headphones are selected while a tuning exists.
- The tuning's own output is a movable sink input, so rerouting "all streams" to a
newly selected output would drag the processing onto headphones, or into the
tuning's own sink, which is a cycle. It is pinned, and stream moves are limited
to streams carrying an application.name.
- The physical sink a tuning fronts is not independently selectable, since picking
it would only bypass the tuning, so it is kept out of the output list.
Applying happens at first-run, not finalize-user, because finalize-user also runs
in the ISO chroot where there is no audio server and nothing would retry.

The on-battery toggle bought a fraction of a watt while the radio
idled -- twenty-some minutes across a full discharge in the best case
-- and paid for it with 20-300ms latency spikes on idle links and
outright link drops on Intel BE200/BE211 firmware. NetworkManager can
keep power save off natively with one conf.d line, which replaces the
udev rule, the setter script, and any per-card deny-listing.

An unsupported terminal notified once per monitor and each monitor
paid a wasted wait; check before the loop instead. The per-read
timeout also let a chatty event stream extend the wait indefinitely,
so spend the 5 seconds against one deadline.

xdg-settings get also consults $BROWSER, so unset it for the getters too.
A failed best-effort fallback default should not abort the browser removal.

omarchy-launch-screensaver loops over the monitors, focusing each and
spawning a terminal on it -- but the spawn is asynchronous. Slow-starting
terminals mapped their windows after focus had already moved to the next
monitor, so every screensaver landed on the last-focused monitor and the
others got none (and the fullscreen rule applied inconsistently when two
windows mapped at once).
Listen on Hyprland's event socket and wait for each monitor's screensaver
window to open before moving focus to the next one, so there is exactly one
screensaver per monitor. The stream is opened before spawning so a
fast-mapping window can't be missed, with a read timeout as a safety net.

Restarting the shell kills its notification server, and a pending
invitation's notify-send waiter then hangs forever: the dying server
never emits NotificationClosed. So a still-running
omarchy-*-invitation unit means an unanswered invitation — re-run it
once the new shell is up so its toast reappears.

The setup installs packages (libfprint-git, fprintd, usbutils), which
isn't reliable on a fresh install before the databases have been
synced. Defer the invitation with a post-update hook, like Voxtype.

Session names can contain pipes but never colons, so split fields on
colons instead. Remember refreshes that arrive while the indicator is
already polling, and jump to the most recently used tmux client rather
than an arbitrary one.

Show a bar indicator whenever tmux has flagged a window, the same state
that highlights the tab, and jump to it on click or with Super + Ctrl + J.
Tmux hooks push the state to the shell, so nothing polls while no pane is
waiting.

pgrep -x tmux never matched, since the processes are named "tmux: server"
and "tmux: client", so config reloads were silently skipped.

Extend the clamshell gate to /etc/pam.d/sudo, not just polkit-1. When the
lid is shut the reader is unreachable, so a terminal sudo would block on
"Place your finger" until pam_fprintd timed out before letting you type the
password. The same pam_exec gate (success=1 skips fingerprint when the lid
is closed) now runs ahead of pam_fprintd in the sudo stack as well.
setup and removal share one gate definition across sudo and polkit; the
migration now gates both stacks on existing installs.
Resolves the clamshell case in #856 and supersedes #6003.

Add a first-run notification, alongside the keybindings/Wi-Fi toasts, that
invites anyone with a fingerprint sensor to enable it. Clicking launches
omarchy-setup-security-fingerprint in a floating terminal.
Detection lives in a new omarchy-hw-fingerprint helper that reads sysfs
(device product descriptor plus a fingerprint-vendor allowlist), so it
works before fprintd/usbutils are installed and without nagging machines
that have no reader. The setup script reuses the same helper as an early
gate, bailing before installing any packages when no reader is found
(replacing the old post-install fprintd-list probe).

Bring the fingerprint affordance to the Quickshell lock screen and polkit
dialog, matching what hyprlock did on master.
Lock screen: render the md-fingerprint glyph inside the password field's
right edge when a sensor is enrolled, reserving space so long passwords
never run under it.
Polkit dialog: show one method at a time. When a sensor is enrolled and
the reader is reachable, the dialog is just the centered fingerprint icon
(square card); the moment PAM asks for a password it switches to the
password field. Detects pam_fprintd anywhere in the auth stack now that a
gate can precede it.
Lid awareness: a closed lid means the reader is unreachable, so both
surfaces fall back to the password. polkit gets a pam_exec clamshell gate
(auth [success=1 default=ignore] before pam_fprintd) so a shut lid drops
straight to the password prompt instead of blocking on the reader for the
pam_fprintd timeout; the lock screen hides the icon and skips scanning.
The gate points at the fixed /usr/bin path the package always provides so
it survives switching between package installs and dev-link. A migration
adds the gate for existing fingerprint setups.
New helper omarchy-hw-laptop-closed (pure lid state); omarchy-hw-clamshell
now composes it with the external-monitor check.
