This is my second "I feel like a complete idiot" question of the week, so thank you for your patience.
How does one find an app-id, e.g., for setting up window rules in my window manager (River)? For example, if I'm using Nautilus as a file manager and I wanted to have the Nautilus Previewer window float by defining a River WM rule, I can do every bit of that trivially, other than identifying the app-id. (In this case, I believe it's org.gnome.NautilusPreviewer, but I'm looking for a general case.) Please note this question is about Wayland and not X.
I dropped into GNOME and viewed active windows with Looking Glass (lg
), but that seems like a silly workflow just to ID a window.
UPDATE (13:40 ET / 2024-07-05): Got the connection working via SMB. Literally the only thing I changed was moving to a credentials file rather than specifying credentials inline, so ... I'll be trying to figure out what mystery affliction prevented the connection before. Leaving this up because there are a bunch of great suggestions for troubleshooting this issue in the comments. Thanks everyone.
ORIGINAL POST:
Currently pulling out my hair. I have a Synology NAS with the tailscale service (everything up to date). I have a NixOS client laptop, everything up to date.
I'm simply (?) trying to connect to a share via tailscale, and I have not managed to find anything that works. I've been using NFS, but I'm fine with SMB ... or carrier pigeons at this point.
Does anyone know of a step by step, detailed, current tutorial to accomplish accessing a Synology share via tailscale on a linux device? I would not have thought this would be challenging!
Anyone know if it's possible to open vivaldi as a minimal window (no separate UI) to contain a website via, e.g., command line flags?
You're going to see some typing errors in this post, and thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat is intentioooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooonal. It's going to make the post unpleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeasant to read, but I assure you it's more unpleasant to type.
The issue: Every 5-10 seconds or so, my laptop has recently started pausing, with one symptom being repetition of any key I happen to be typing at that moment, whether a letter, deletion, or something else. I haven't changed anything, and something very similar seems to be happening on mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmy Fedora-based desktop.
I have tried thhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhe usual troubleshooting steps, such as watchinggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg my processes, disabling gnome extensions, and I cannot pin down the cause.
(1) Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnyone seen anything like this?
(2) Any suggestions for troubleshooting?
The laptop is more than powerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrful enough, a Gen 8 X1 Carbon. OS and apps are up to date. I assume an OS, gnome, or applicationnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn update has broken something, but I cannot for the life of me pinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn down where the issue is occurring.
EDIT:
Adding system specs --
Intel® Core™ i7-10610U 16GB Intel® UHD Graphics Gnome/Wayland NixOS 23.11 kernel 6.1.57
EDIT 2:
Well, it appears to be gnome. Switched to KDE and everything is perfectly fine. I don't like KDE (but I fully respect others' preferences, just ... to avoid unpleasantness). I'm going to do some digging around to see if gnome is conflicting with something in NixOS land.
