  • install KIO packages if tou do t have them dolphin needs these for network shares to behave like local files:

    sudo apt install kio-fuse kio-extras ffmpegthumbs

    then log out and log back in (or restart)

    dolphin should mount network paths under

    /run/user/your-uid/kio-fuse-somerandomshit

    check it

    if the path starts with /run/user/… you’re good. If it’s something like smb://, it’s not using fuse

    What’s going on:

    Your server has files. Dolphin can look at them, but it’s not actually pulling them down to your computer in a normal folder.

    Because the files aren’t really on your computer, other programs can’t just “open” them — they don’t know how to talk to the server like Dolphin does.

    How it should work: If you use FUSE (with kio-fuse), Dolphin secretly makes a fake local folder that pretends the server’s files are on your computer.

    Now, when you double-click a file, your computer thinks it’s opening a local file — so any app can work with it.

    Why Nemo works but Dolphin doesn’t Nemo automatically mounts network folders in that “pretend local folder” way.

    Dolphin can do it too, but only if kio-fuse is installed and working.

    Without it, Dolphin is basically just showing you a picture of the files instead of giving them to your apps.

    The fix: Install the thing (kio-fuse) that makes the fake local folder.

    Restart your session so Dolphin uses it.

    Now Dolphin acts like Nemo — server files will just work everywhere.

    yeah i was just thinking this the other day. i have alot of packages on my linux boot. i run mysql,postgres all kinds of stuff, many python versions, still fast as the first day i installed it. windows on the other hand starts bogging down fast. i keep my windows boot withonly the bare minimum of things and turn off almost everything from the start up, woth the hopes of keeping it useable.


  • thats strange, my boot menu has 2 kernel selections for pop os, the current one and one that is the previous running kernel. if a pop os update breaks my system i can just boot from the other kernel image. which has only happened once in 5 years. but was able to wait for pop to push fixes etc and then dist upgrade.

    since you dont seem to have that option, you may need to boot from live usb and investigate further.

    when you try to boot into it what happens?











  • i wouldnt put too much weight or leverage on that shelf. the sheet rock is basically doing nothing and plywood, depending on the quality and with that thickness is not much to grab on to. are there no studs you can hit? depending on how many screws you are able use, i would potentially use GRK brand cabinet screws, if you can find them. theyre some of the best in the business as far as bite and sheer strength. if you can do a longer horizontal run like a ledger you can distribute alot of the load across the wall, instead of on a few points only…my tv mount is designed to hit studs with like 2 1/2" lags…way burlier…but i would consider grk cabinet screws. what is keeping the whole wall from flexing under weight though?
