  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Because it wasn't made by King K. Rool

    While I love the idea of KDE Connect, in practice the SMS feature doesn't work reliably at all.

    Idk... I struggle through it for the ease of typing. I think the issue is more on my phone's side than KDE connect itslef

    I feel like they missed a perfect opportunity, though it may just be the most 2000s thing ever.

    I've had to use CX File Explorer here and there for various things. KDE is just a better version of that then?

    CX was pretty lightweight last I used it.

    What problem are you having?

    I like how you have mentioned your instance name in username to distinguish between your alt accounts

    i am not on my laptop right now, but i am running ubuntu on a vm: and didn't know how to run kde after installing from ubuntu software store, and apparently it require usb debugging on android, although i would prefer wireless debugging: i even struggled to install the teamviewer .deb file, but figured it out afterall and had to figure how to run teamviewer, then after launch, i had to activate remote desktop, i had to install this rdp thing, and yet couldn't reach the teamviewer server. again, all this on the VM ( Vmware on windows 7) i am used to windows gui, so i took alot of things for granted, and the smallest task requires me to look up a guide for it, but kinda worth it, since i can't install win 11 since my laptop is too old and couldnt install win 10 since it required a different partition system, and after that it didn't install, so i am familiarizing myself with linux on vm for now

    OK, I just tried reinstalling KDE connect on my phone. I didn't have to do anything with USB Debugging. There should just be KDE Connect in app menu after you install it, there you should be able to pair a new device. However I don't know how well that may work under VM.

    About the TeamViewer, I did use TeamViewer on Linux Mint without problems. Maybe again something to do with VM. RDP just seems to be Microsoft's remote desktop protocol unrelated to TeamViewer.

    But I never properly tried Ubuntu. I didn't even manage to install it as the installer kept crashing :-/

    It does not require USB debugging or have anything to do with TeamViewer.

    then one less step to figure out

    [โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    try flatpak version or appimage version, I've seen better results for apps on those formats in terms of ease of use

    It is very nice but the officle app depents a lot on qt what is really anoing. It would be really nice if I could use a gtk version of it on hyprland
