I want to run PipeWire as a system user and have multiple login users access it. My current hack is to run it as one login user and then do something like:
export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1001
Where 1001
is the user ID. Is there a cleaner approach?
Watch the video. Wedson is being yelled at by Ted Ts’o. If the general doesn’t yell, but his lieutenants yell, is that really progress? I will say that last time I saw Linus, he was very quiet and courteous, but that likely was because it was early morning and the summit-goers were starting to eat breakfast and drink their coffee.
