PeppermintOS: greeter setting wrong?

Hi, i hope someone can help me with this one

I logged-in, changed the touchpad behaviour,. It works as expected. But when log-out, the settings didn't change in the greeter. Reboot doesnt change that.

:~$ cat/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf | grep greeter-session

greeter-session=lightdm-greeter

Is that the right greeter? I heard it should be greeter-session=lightdm-gtk-greeter instead. Does LightDM default to a different setting?

What can i do to get the touchpad right in the greeter?

Thanks for your help!

(Spoilers) [solved] Which SciFi movie is this?

Its not Ex Machina, but has some similarites. The movie is obviously longer but this is what i remember:

In a remote house someone is trying to connect with the outside world but there are some technical difficulties. The only bridge that connects the house to the exit doesn't seem to work either.

::: spoiler spoiler The person realizes they are just an AI stuck in a simulation. Thats why they cant get out and cant connect to the rest of the world.

Movie is therefore similar because of AI with Ex Machina, Moon, Welt am Draht :::

(Spoilers) [solved] Which movie is this? Cold war spy pilot on the radio with someone on earth

Is this a good channel to ask that? Let me know if its better somewhere else

I am not sure if that is even a movie, short film, episode, theater play, etc. And i probably remember things wrong. But the entire thing is just the pilot in his cockpit of a spy airplane. Should be Cold ware era. There is some technical disturbance and he gets lost over eastern Europe (?). So he uses his radio and finds someone to talk to and get help.

Even though it seems so low budget, it is quite exciting because you want to know what will happen next.

::: spoiler spoiler During his talks on the radio, it seems unclear if he is actually talking to an ally or if it is Sowjets acting as Americans. They tell him to follow their directions and land somewhere and the scene ends. :::

[solved] i fail to install gHub-GUI. Where to ask for help?

[solved]: gHub-GUI seems outdated. openRGP does what i need instead.

Hi, i'd like to use my Logitech G915 LEDs properly under KDE neon and since logitech only provides for Win or Mac, someone recommended gHUB-GUI. https://github.com/ysph/gHub-GUI

I tried the little installation instructions on https://github.com/ysph/gHub-GUI but something does not seem to work. This is not my first git app(?), but the first one i can't seem to use. I tried to ask ChatGPT but it... ::: spoiler spoiler poured kerosene all over itself, jumped head first off the autobahn bridge, got ran over by a Lastkraftwagen, biting a cyanide pill. That ::: ...didn't help.

Can anybody please point me in the right direction? I am fine with the CLI. I cloned the project, Installed those mentioned dependencies, but ~/gHub-GUI$ make all returns

gcc -g main.o mouselist.o -o ghub-gui -lusb-1.0. And i dont kow what that means.

Thanks!

librewolf·Librewolfbyklay

my Librewolf has no native-messaging-hosts. There is just the Mozilla Firefox one.

Hi, i am on KDE Neon and would like to use Browser Integration with KeePassXC and the guides say i should use a custom browser configuration location similar to the one of firefox. This worked on Kubuntu, when chosing Browser type: Firefox and using the native-messaging-hosts location of Librewolfs.

But this time i dont have one:

:~$ locate native-messaging-hosts
/etc/chromium/native-messaging-hosts
/etc/chromium/native-messaging-hosts
org.kde.plasma.browser_integration.json
/etc/opt/chrome/native-messaging-hosts
/etc/opt/chrome/native-messaging-hosts/rg.kde.plasma.browser_integration.json
/etc/opt/edge/native-messaging-hosts
/etc/opt/edge/native-messaging-hosts/org.kde.plasma.browser_integration.json
/home/klayneon/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts
/home/klayneon/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts/org.keepassxc.keepassxc_browser.json
/home/klayneon/.var/app/org.mozilla.firefox/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts
/home/klayneon/.var/app/org.mozilla.firefox/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts/org.kde.plasma.browser_integration.json
/usr/lib/mozilla/native-messaging-hosts
/usr/lib/mozilla/native-messaging-hosts/org.kde.plasma.browser_integration.json

There are several Browsers and i was expecting the one for Librewolf, like on the other machine...

edit: i think its because this time i chose that flatpak.

What do i do now?

Thank you!

upgrading from i5-7600K to Ryzen 5 5600

Hey guys, please review my upgrade considerations.

Goal: good bang for the buck upgrade. No need for high end. Just a cheap but good step forward. Does my choice make sense or do you think this little step is not worth it? I am a little flexible on the budget. Is there something more valuable in that range?

Duties:

  • mostly workstation / office / many browser tabs / hobby programming (small projects) / a couple apps incl. electron apps running at the same time
  • little gaming (grand strategy). So far the GPU and RAM are ...fine, i guess. I will upgrade them some time in the future, to play KCD2
  • no video editing, almost no 3d modeling, little virtualization, no Image processing

Current system:

  • i5-7600K CPU
  • MS-7A71 mainboard
  • 16 GiB of RAM (slow 2133 MT/s)
  • Radeon RX 480 Graphics

Low cost upgrade idea:

  • AMD Ryzen 5 5600 6x 3.50GHz So.AM4 90€
    • there is a 5600X for 100€ but just 1% faster in benchmarks
  • Gigabyte B550 Gaming X V2 AMD B550 So.AM4 Dual Channel DDR4 ATX Retail € 106
    • There are B550s for 10€ cheaper but this one supports my old DDR4-2133 RAMs and up to DDR4-3200

196€ for a good upgrade doesn't sound too bad. I probably need a new cooler too because of the new socket. I could get faster RAMs but figured that i would probably not feel the difference. These give me upgrade options in the future but don't cost much right now, since i hope to keep all other parts (PSU, midi tower, etc.). Is it correct, that i don't need a new PSU since the power consumption does not increase (for now)? And does the old PSU cable fit the new mainboard?

What else do i need to consider?

Thank you :-)
