While I was adding Golang to the PATH my terminal (Konsole) suddenly stopped recognizing basic commands like nano and ls. I restared my PC and after logging back in (X11) KDE started throwing errors because it wasn't able to find any program I tried to launch. Konsole is gone. I can't open any program whatsoever (Firefox, Discover etc.). Trying to log in into Wayland just throws a black screen. After a few more reatarts I decided to use the terminal from the login screen, but it is broken as well. ls not found, nano and vim don't exist. So far I can use pwd and cd.

What the hell is wrong here? Is it hardware failure (bad SSD)? Is there anything I can attempt to recover the system?

Hello,

Recently I was fed up with bad performance in CS2 on Fedora 41 (KDE/Wayland/kernel 6.11.7-300) and started googling around. With my RX6600 I was able to hit 60fps on 1080p/low, but it would often go as low as 40. Trying to change te resolution would cause some strange mouse issues where the game wouldn't let me look to the right or down at all. After reading some posts and getting opposing info, I decided to dnf install plasma-workspaces-x11 and test things out. The X11 session doubled the FPS like it was nothing. A constant 120fps with the possibility to go even higher. Is there something that I could try and fix in Wayland to achieve the same level of performance? As far as I understood, KDE might axe X11 support in the upcomign releases and I wouldn't want to be left behind.

I don't know when this happened. There was a system update a few days ago which went fine. Two days ago I wanted to download something onto one of my HDDs and got an I/O error. After investigating I found out that I no longer am the owner of any of my drives and can't create/delete any files. Chmod/chown didn't help. Editing the fstab file didn't help since it had the exact same contens as when everything worked. Shuffeling exec,rw around has no effect. Mounting/unmounting didn't do anything. Phisically removing the drives also didn't work. Adding a completely new drive automatically set it to restricted. How the hell does soemthing like this happen? I don't want to do a system wipe.

Edit: Windows is to blame

It appears Windows did something to the drives the last time I used it which messed up the partitin tables and prevented Linux from mounting them correctly. After poking around in the journalctl like suggested I found an entry with the error message. Googling brought me to an arch forum post with the same problem. All that had to be done was to go back into Windows and run shutdown /s /f /t 0 in cmd/powershell. Link to the post: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=231375

Tnx everyone for the assistance!

Hello everyone.

After I changed the default font in KDE Plasma 6.1.4 on Bazzite to Atkinson Hyperlegible, all desktop icons have weird line spacing in the name. Notice how .png is hanging behind tge icon for TextFile sh. Changing the font size does nothing. Only if I switch back to the defaults does it fix itself. Any idea how I can keep Atkinson as a font and fix this issue?

Edit: In edit mode (right click on desktop) I can set the Text lines to 1 which makes things bearable. Still no way to manage the weird spacing issue. Seems that not all icon are affected. Couldn't find a pattern.

Does anyone know any additional sites for downloading ebooks in German besides anna's and libgen? I am mostly interested in sci-fi/fantasy novels.
