    Dying Light mouse not responding

    Yeah. During my troubleshooting net travels I found some people who say that they had success with Gamescope, but I don't have a lot of experience with it. Logging on with X11 allows me to play, so that's enough for me. Thanks though, bah.

    Dying Light mouse not responding

    Okay. It looks like this is a KWin-Wayland bug, as it widely happens on Plasma 6. The solution for me was to log on with X11—mouse movement returns.

    Dying Light mouse not responding

    I am having trouble getting any mouse motion response from Dying Light. I have tried the native version and with Glorious Eggroll Proton 9.2 (released ~3 days ago) compatibility. What happens: I launch the game (I've had no problems launching either version) and the mouse cursor is parked in...

    For loop in bash script will not walk directories recursively

    I have one more question that I am not able to answer. When usingfind ~ -print0find traverses the /home/ directory (as I thought it should using ~). However, when I use find ~ -print0 | while IFS= read -r -d '' item; do ... donefine walks the /root/ directory. Any ideas why?

    For loop in bash script will not walk directories recursively

    Alright. A search turned up an alternative way to recursively walk a directory find ~ -print0 | while IFS= read -r -d '' item; do ... done ls named the directories it was entering (as pointed out by @osprey) like "Documents:" and then list contents. I didn't like that.

    For loop in bash script will not walk directories recursively

    Ohhh, I see now! The GLOB * only returns all items within /home. The code you provided will use ls to recursively walk directories and files. Cool deal. I have a couple bash scripts to update. Thanks for clearing that one up, @osprey.

    For loop in bash script will not walk directories recursively

    Thanks for the reply @osprey, but I am not so sure you answered my question. I'm still confused. If you read my OP, I have a for loop that iterates like so: for item in /home/* ...Shouldn't that line iterate through all files and folders recursively? Also, when I usels -a "$HOME"I get the...

    For loop in bash script will not walk directories recursively

    The following bash scripts will not do what (I thought) they are supposed to do: #!/bin/bash for item in ~/*; do echo $item done Oddly enough, it prints /root/*I have no idea what's up with that. Some GLOB thing? Now, if I change it to #!/bin/bash for item in /home/*; do echo $item...

    Solved Modifications to bash.bashrc or bashrc

    Good to go. ~/.bashrc is read on login by KDE. Thanks, guys.

    Solved Modifications to bash.bashrc or bashrc

    Okay, no go... the file was not created. I wonder if it has anything to do with this line in the ~/.bashrc file: [[ $- != *i* ]] && return Comment says if not interactive, don't proceed further (Bash scripting is not my strong suit). I can remove that, or RTM on KDE and fix it. I did come...

    Solved Modifications to bash.bashrc or bashrc

    Okay, cool. I have 1 account on my computer, so that's good. Just so I'm clear, the changes will affect all operations on the computer that use EVs (provided it's my account)? I sort of understood it to mean it takes effect when you launch an interactive shell. I'm just unclear if it means...

    Solved Modifications to bash.bashrc or bashrc

    I recently modified bashrc to add a couple items to PATH and XDG_DATA_DIRS. My question is: does this modification take effect system-wide? I mean, using a GUI such as KDE, with its application launchers, will the modified EVs be in effect? Does modifying the titular files give all apps, etc...

    Solved Arch KDE Application Launcher not Searching ~/.local/share/applications

    Those who persist, huh... I figured it out. All works as intended, the problem was with the "Category" key in the .desktop file. It appears some categories span multiple menus. In my case, I wanted to remove an entry from the "Utilities" menu, well another value was used for the "Utilities"...

    Solved Arch KDE Application Launcher not Searching ~/.local/share/applications

    The gist is in the thread title. I'm on the latest release of Arch, and my application launcher (start menu) does not seem to be looking in "$HOME/.local/share/applications" for desktop entries. I have modified several, and these are not being reflected in my launcher. I have used the bundled...

    Solved OpenVPN, Fedora 38 KDE, MFA NordVPN

    I like using the Network Manager. Easier—one click. What OS (distro) are you running? How do you connect to the VPN service? By the way, I found out that Nord did, indeed, change their login procedure. Last month they moved from account credentials to service credentials. I wasn't...

    Solved OpenVPN, Fedora 38 KDE, MFA NordVPN

    Oops. I do apologize. I can have a potty mouth at times. I got excited for an easy fix. Ok, you don't use MFA for NordVPN. In my troubleshooting, I came across some disgruntled Linux users re: the Network Manager. I was just curious of your experience, if you had one. But, what better way...

    Solved OpenVPN, Fedora 38 KDE, MFA NordVPN

    Shoot, @PuppyHome, brother, you saved my life from a miserable, painful death! You earned lifelong gratitude from the @malonn. Now, that doesn't mean much, but whatever... What threw me (shameless self-defense) was I that I used to use NordVPN about 2 or 3 years ago, and the process was...

    Well, I disabled MFA and it still won't let me connect. Password should be right, as it allows me to log into my NordVPN account online. Time to go to NordVPN help...

    Solved OpenVPN, Fedora 38 KDE, MFA NordVPN

    Before I ask a question of my VPN provider, I thought I'd ask here. I have MFA set up for my VPN (provided by NordVPN). I'm using OpenVPN to connect (or whatever), but I can't connect. How do I set up MFA within OpenVPN? My username and password are not allowing a connection. It keeps...
