Hi there,

I searched the forum and the web for awhile and can't find a solution for my Problem here.
After the last bigger update, my Notion and Joplin stopped working.
I can still launch them, but I can't type anything in. I have no clue whats the matter, why it doesn't work here.

Do you have any Tips for me?
update snap?
install flash?
something wrong with the systemctl?
in German we would say: Alot of half knowledge is dangerous 🙂

I am glad to hear for some tips to fix this. I have some important notes stored for my bootcamp there

best greetings out of China right now!

Yours Erwin

    ere02 update the snap for sure.
    try the flatpak Joplin just to see it works.
    when a sandboxed up will not talk to the system then its maybe software or result of an update.
    sudo eopkg checkwill rule in or rule out anything broken
    a rollback (see help page) will restore you to pre-update status...but you will never know what caused it and you will have to update eventually.
    ***I would never rec anyone install Flash butI know nothing about Notion.
    2 cents--will write back if anything else pop in brain

    hmm. it seems to me that I really have a "broken" system here. Everything - exept the snap repos....- work fine here. A rollback always gets terminated by the line:
    System error. Program terminated.
    Repo item python-enum34 not found

    i can't search or install python-enum34 with sudo eopkg install python-enum34
    I guess I have to life with that untill I am back in Germany. Than I can install Solus again. Here in China the bann of google and co really sucks hard.

    See you around and thx again.

    Do you people see the icons left of peoples name with the 3 colored circles? (Might check it out if you dont know what it means)
    You might do what they ask instead of chasing your tails.
    It only helps to fix and improve Solus!
    (Meant as polite jester)

    fair enough.. Again what learnt. What does DE stands for?
    I am using Solus Budgie
    Hardware is:
    Lenovo ThinkPad E14 Gen 2 with a Ryzen 4000 Series /7 chip and AMd Radeon graphics

    Does that helps a bit more?

    best greetings from China,

      ere02 Again what learnt. What does DE stands for

      Desktop Environment. Budgie is one of those.

        WetGeek I remember also knowing nothing about that stuff like the OP. Linux is nothing if not a very large, Acronym-driven project. hell, someone in an article recently spelled out ARM, something I heard of for years but had no idea what is stood for until 48 hours ago (it means Advanced RISC Machine....)

          brent I think it's sort of a type of CPU (architecture?). I am not accurate anyway but maybe this helps searching.

          What I faintly heard about, is being fast/effective at the expense of rarely making some errors. That's likely not accurate as well.

            brent Reduced Instruction Set Computer, less Complex.
            "RISC microprocessors, or chips, take advantage of the fact that most of the instructions for computer processes are relatively simple and computers are designed to handle those simple instructions extremely quickly. RISC chips streamline and accelerate data processing by minimizing the number of instructions permanently stored in the microprocessor and by relying more on nonresident instruction (i.e., software programs, or code).

            In contrast, CISC chips have a large, complex resident instruction set. Therefore, they typically process complex codes more quickly. RISC chips must break the complicated code down into simpler units before they can execute it. Furthermore, software developed for use with RISC computer systems must provide a larger instruction set than software for CISC systems to compensate for the small, simple instructions that are built in."
