ProbeLabs65 findings · 95 requirementsA proof layer — requirements, tests and verified fixes — for two of Omarchy's subsystems: the application menu (launcher scripts, QML model, JSONC config, search and selection) and the lock screen (lock scripts, QML, PAM authentication). Scope is deliberately limited to those components of omacom/omarchy; the rest of the distribution is not covered.

What's wrong?
Launching the Windows VM from the desktop entry or via omarchy-windows-vm launch does not open an RDP window. The CLI attempt shows FreeRDP errors and the VM container is stopped automatically. Desktop entry only shows a notification and then appears to do nothing.
