@jaredbusch said in Interesting Cinnamon themes for Fedora:

The default dark theme is getting annoying, so I am lookint at other themes and found this.

Confirmed annoying.

@black3dynamite said in PowerShell Failing to Run on Fedora 28:

Is that only a Fedora issue?

No, definitely not isolated to Fedora. It's any distro, or any that are set up, in a way that PS doesn't like in terms of the xterm environmental. So most, I would assume, are affected, but all have a fix. It's a PS bug, and decently easy to work around.

damned desktop system has something forcing this...

Oh yeah, if you have a GUI, it uses your /home space.

Well crap, I never added pictures to step 2.
I will try to get to that later this afternoon.

@black3dynamite said in How to run JNLP files on Fedora Cinnamon with Firefox:

In Chrome, selecting "Always Open Files of This Type" doesn't work?

You are not allowed to select that for JNLP files in Chrome.

Google and Oracle bickering takes a toll on end users 😞

@JaredBusch said in Install Telegram Desktop on Fedora 26 and newer with Cinnamon Desktop:

sudo dnf install telegram

It's now telegram-desktop

Ok, got it fixed.
I was treating the allocation like I would in Hyper-V, KVM is slightly different.
https://superuser.com/questions/1166955/memory-allocation-never-change-for-my-virtual-machine

Setting the Current & Max allocation to the same amounts, 8 or 16, fixed things up.

@JaredBusch said in Anyone put Korora/Fedora on an Inspiron 2 in 1:

Well I had to buy the Inspiron, because it was in stock and available now. My MBP officially has no reliable wifi.

That sucks, on two counts!

So to completely answer the question I posited.

Install ibus-anthy

dnf -y install ibus-anthy

Next run input selector from the CLI or GUI.

0_1495549633007_upload-1ea06f93-cb6f-427c-8886-ed7a19c8279f

Change the Input method from "No Input Method" to "IBus"

Note, the preferences link here does NOT work for me.

Log out and back in, and you will see the language selector up by the clock in the tray.

0_1495549958212_upload-3359ebb2-a45f-450c-a35e-2ef1e318ee6c

Right click and choose preferences.
0_1495549999445_upload-e4fa99c7-bc1a-4758-87cb-ae8e36722bae

Switch to the Input Method tab and click Add.
0_1495550040150_upload-c98af063-de99-4348-a3e6-165bd59d3f66

Select the language you want to add.
0_1495550072443_upload-602a1475-8934-456d-ace0-23c9396be86d

Select the input type for the language. In this case we want Anthy in order to get the Romaji entry of the Kana.

As a side note, my wife does not use the Kana Kanji input method. I am not sure how many Japanese actually use that input method. The one time I put my laptop into that mode, she could not type.
0_1495550099006_upload-07b4232e-aa21-40f7-ab9f-834a08abc418

After adding Anthy, you can click prefernces and make any custom changes you want.

The other thing you will want to do is setup a key combo to switch languages.
I like the alt + backtick (grave)
Click the button after the next method and setup whatever key combo you want.

@jaredbusch said in How to change your user folder locations with Cinnamon or Gnome 3:

As someone upvoted this post recently, I thought I would circle back. I am using simlinks in all my Fedora systems now.

This just never worked exactly as advertised. It mostly worked, but never completely.

I also use symbolic link with Linux and Windows too. For Windows, it keeps me from messing with the default user shell folders / shell folders path or the need to move the locations. And with Linux, I don't have to mess with the user-dirs.dirs file.

I am still searching as well. On Deepin right now.

@KOOLER "do guy" = "do gui" LOL

TL:DR where are the pictures.....

😛

@Dashrender said:

That looks OK I guess, I guess I'm just jaded and really rather like the Windows style icons/start bar, etc.

I have to assume they are copy writed though?

No, they just aren't that popular. There are skins and stuff that look just like them. Few people choose them, though.
