Normally all we have to do is change it back.

That is not fixing the problem though. Simply working around it.

The problem is why do these tools not work under Wayland?

Thanks

And it should be noted, that unlike SMB or NFS shares that would be generally frowned upon to use over the Internet, SFTP is heavily encrypted and very secure and is often used over public networks.

In case anyone else is interested...

Kind of interesting, handy to have a simple way to get real RHEL, I guess.

Maybe this will be the Gnome release that convinces me to enjoy Gnome. 😛

It depends if you were ever interested in Gnome at all.

My main beef with Gnome is that without an extra tool package, files and directories that you place in the /home/whateverUser/Desktop directory don't actually appear on the desktop. It's been a while since I've given Gnome a chance (notwithstanding a recent thread), so maybe my gripe is no longer valid.

I believe Gnome Tweak has a option to enable Desktop. But it was never an issue for me because I dislike anything on there except for wallpaper.

I know with Elementary OS, they removed Desktop folder.

Yeah, my gripe isn't a functional one. It's more of an aesthetic gripe: "why have that folder if it doesn't make stuff appear on the GUI's desktop?"

Because in Fedora for example allows you to log in using Gnome classic.

Actually, I got it working with bumblebee-project installed. It did not work in Korora 25, but seems to be working in 26.

I prefixed the wow-64.exe with optirun and it just worked. Great framerate too. I just need to work out the mouse capture part yet. But that's not a big deal since I don't play that game much anyways. It was just easy to test with because it's on an external drive. Hopefully it's not like that in NMS.

My cpu fan is still running full speed from the glxgear test, even though it's way cooled down by now. A reboot may fix that, though.

I hope Fedora 26 stays just as it is. "Works" great so far. More so than 25.

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

@NerdyDad nostalgia.

The link isn't working for me. Is it working for anyone else?

Works for me.

@Reid-Cooper well now I have to check it out.

@scottalanmiller things like bootstrap are all about mouse vs finger, pointer vs touch

Also - is connecting to the local desktop the only option on using that computers speakers?

I've installed MATE, and am able to connect via that now - but it plays Pithos using the main computers speakers. not what I want... when I have the stereo system on the other side of the room....

There should be options to tunnel the sound through the SSH session.

He wants to use X2Go as a remote control for the machine with the audio playing.

Ah ok. I read that wrong, my bad.

@travisdh1 I agree, not very impressed that Mint included this but did not test it or respond to people with issues. Better to not have it in there.

Do you have the Cinnamon or Mate Desktop? It would make sense that you couldn't run a Gnome application without running in a Gnome environment. Although I could be mistaken.

Just because you run a different GUI doesn't mean you can't run apps meant for a different one. KDE and GNOME apps normally run just fine in the other type of desktop assuming all dependencies are met.

Cinnamon is Gnome 3, though.

Hrm, just gets worse and worse.

Yeah, I'd expect @StrongBad to have good luck here. I see the same thing, doesn't run.

@scottalanmiller true, looking forward to packages of Plasma 5.6. Running 5.5 now, quite OK but some buggyness 😞
