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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

Why would my DVD-ROM throw I/O errors when it's never used? I don't understand that. Maybe someone here does.

I'm just curious what VM software people recommend? Merits of this software? I've used VirtualBox from Oracle (and thought it was pretty slick), but there are other options out there. I've heard of Qemu... thinking I may give that a go, as I've heard it's sort of the Linux thing (?). So...

Where are the process crash logs kept? I'm wanting to delete or truncate old ones, and don't know where to find them. I've looked under /var/logs, but can't seem to determine which ones are for crashed processes. Thanks.

Wine creates symbolic links to the /home folder for various directories such as Documents and Downloads. How do I remove them from being symbolic links? I don't want to delete the directories, 'cause they link to folders that have contents I want. I just want to remove the link, without...

I have various removable media (several thumb drives and a hard drive). Some is mounted automatically as read/write, others not. What could cause this? I just want to get my bearings here.

I'm not seeing a lot of info on the web for Fedora 38 KDE on this, so I'll ask here. How do I format a USB stick (to Fat32 for flashing BIOS)? I'd prefer a GUI utility, but command line is fine. I looked at the partition manager that comes with KDE, but I have to figure out why...

I'm wondering the most comprehensive package to get for my Fedora 38 installation that covers multimedia codecs? Specifically, I want to play h264 and h265 MKVs. I know I can get a media player like VLC or MPlayer, but they are packed with functionality that I will not use. I like the...

I screw around with coding in Python and like to use PyQt6 as my GUI framework. There was a recent-ish release of PyQt6 to version 6.5.0. I used to be on 6.4.2, and there were no problems. Once I upgraded, I can't launch applications I create. If needed, I can provide the exact error I get...
