No code is named, so start by installing the .deb, .rpm or AppImage from the newest release and running echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE to record your session. Work through the checklist in the issue body, and run the app from a terminal to capture any crash output. Done means a comment reporting each checklist item with your distribution, desktop and X11 or Wayland session, plus any crash logs. Related context is in #140, #143 and #163.

Descrizione

help wanted platform:linux priority:P1

SpeakType 2 ships a .deb, an .rpm and an AppImage, and both are built by CI on every release, but nobody has yet run the app through a full session on Linux. Two crash reports arrived within days of the first alphas (#140, #143, both fixed), which is a fair sign there is more.

If you use Linux daily, this is the most useful thing you can do for the project right now. Download the newest release, run through the list below, and report back in a comment: what works, what doesn't, plus your distribution, desktop (GNOME, KDE, Sway...) and whether you are on X11 or Wayland (echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE).

Install

  • The .deb, .rpm or AppImage installs and the app opens
  • Onboarding runs, and the notes about Wayland show up if you're on Wayland
  • A model downloads, with visible progress, and cancelling works

Dictation

  • The default hotkey (Ctrl+Shift+Space) starts and stops a dictation
  • Text is pasted into a normal app (a text editor, a browser field)
  • Text is pasted into a terminal, which should use Ctrl+Shift+V
  • Escape stops without pasting, and the transcript still appears in History
  • With "Restore clipboard" on, what you had copied is still there afterwards
  • On Wayland: pasting works with wtype or ydotool installed, and the app says so when neither is

Recorder pill

  • It appears while recording, with a moving waveform and a timer
  • It's transparent, not a solid rectangle (this depends on the compositor)
  • Each position in Settings puts it where it should be, including with two screens

Tray icon

  • The icon shows up (GNOME needs the AppIndicator extension)
  • Right-clicking gives the menu, and Start dictation works from it
  • Left-clicking: tell us what happens. On Linux it may do nothing, and we'd like to know per desktop

The rest

  • History plays back a recording
  • Settings survive quitting and reopening
  • Closing the window keeps the app running in the tray

Known and already understood, no need to report: the hotkey on Wayland only fires while an X11 app has focus, and Parakeet models don't run on Intel Macs. Wayland portals for the hotkey and for typing are tracked in #163.

Anything that crashes: run it from a terminal and paste what it prints. That's how #140 was fixed inside a day.
