    Quick question - what exactly is the differennce between sudo apt install wireguard resolvconf and sudo apt install wireguard -y

    Programs not showing/working in MX Linux kde

    I see. Looked around a bit and saw that there are quite a lot Linux GUI for Wireguard floating around, so there might be a better one. Or maybe some sort of network manager who will have it as a sub section. That is certainly true, and I'm not exactly allergic to reading. But this subject...

    Programs not showing/working in MX Linux kde

    Thanks. MX repo is that long list of possible download sources, of which the one chosen serves as the main source when you try to install via terminal, right? Just to make sure that you're thinking what I'm thinking... (no pun intended...) If so, then it didn't find wireguird, because it says...

    Programs not showing/working in MX Linux kde

    I'm looking at this thing now, as I really think I'd like to have a gui. UnnoTed/wireguird - a Wireguard gtk gui for Linux Offers are: Which one should I take? And what exactly are the terminal commands below for?

    Getting lost there... :oops: Can't I simply feed it the conf file the FritzBox created?

    Programs not showing/working in MX Linux kde

    The package manager only installed wireguard and wireguard tools. It left wireguard-go and golang-golang.zx2c4-wireguard-dev which are still unchecked, that is not installed. Might that be the problem? Should I install them? Or are there already there, when the terminal listed them above...

    Thanks, I tried sudo wireguard and it says sudo: wireguard: command not found Looked in the user installed-packages-list and there it is listed. And apt show wireguard produced this:

    Programs not showing/working in MX Linux kde

    Thanks, I think changing to kde was okay for now, just to smoothe the beginnings. I keep xfce close, though, as it is said to be the more stable one. Could be that one day when Linux doesn't sound like Chinese to me I might give it another look. For now, the program troubles continue. I've just...

    Programs not showing/working in MX Linux kde

    I also use Calibre, and as soon as Linux lands on the main computer, it'll be installed. I will look at the MX forum and probably subscribe, as I think I'll stick with MX Linux. But for now I think there is a good chance most of my troubles result from being a total Linux newbie, and not so...

    Could I exclude Conky from 'dim inactive windows'?

    O well, it's me again, your friendly neighborhood troll... (how many threads are too many??) It's not my fault Linux is so complicated... And I do have so many questions. For example, I was wondering and pondering why my Conky turned grey after just a moment in kde. Like this - the upper image...

    Programs not showing/working in MX Linux kde

    Thanks a lot for looking into it, I appreciate it. Funny that Foliate isn't kde software either - it came with it. Or rather, it came with MX Linux. But I looked at the site you linked and I guess I stop there. For a program I will never use again once Calibre gets installed it just doesn't...

    To be honest, I didn't even think of any dependencies - I just thought it was the better weather app. Maybe I should just stick to going to www.weather.com... No idea bout the GPU, it says I vaguely recall some foggy memory about Intel and AMD being opposites, but that could well be something...

    I know, and Calibre will definitely be there once it goes on the main computer. I'm just not putting it on the old laptop because my Calibre library has some 1200 books in it. But I'm interested to know what is wrong with this Foliate installation, particularly since it came with MX Linux kde.

    Programs not showing/working in MX Linux kde

    After wrecking my xfce, I've just installed MX Linux kde and like it a lot better so far. It has an epub reader installed - Foliate - but it doesn't seem to work and won't show up when clicking on it in the menu. Calling it via terminal produces the following: I assume there is the solution...

    how on earth to Dual Boot Linux with Two hard disks

    Thank you, that's good to know. I think I'll keep my old windows hdd around until I'm really sure it all runs well without it, either on Linux itself or in a virtual box. Or merely for this one week every year I get my Anno attack...

    Frustrated: How can I get my own menus?

    Oh well, I struggled on and wrecked my Linux - even though at first the menu looked promising. But, after restart and an update it totally messed up, with double entries and whatnot. Jeez, I must've done something wrong... :eek: I thought this would be a good time to do my first Timeshift...

    Frustrated: How can I get my own menus?

    Okay, I'm getting frustrated here. I cannot figure out how to sort out the menus in MX Linux. They may be perfectly fine for experienced users, but to poor little me they are a mess. There are several different sets of menus - Whisker menu, Application menu, right click menus - all sorted...

    Panel customization and a can of worms & no clean uninstalls?

    I see. I've installed it via MX Package Installer, though, were all you were asked to do was to click on a box.... It's probably not always the best option to go for beginner-friendly. If I install something in the next time, it'll be a simplified task manager that shows open programs running...
