  • Here is the problem.

    I had been running X before last night. I switched to Wayland just before knocking off. When I started again today I was now running Wayland. I just now switched back to X and now my icon for kpat works properly.

    Is there some issue with the Icons-Only Task Manager under Wayland?

    I was going back to Wayland because it seems important Distros are dropping X. I should be running under Wayland because at some point I will have to. I am back on X for now.



  • I have included this line in my .bash_profile:

    export PATH=“$HOME/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games”

    In the very last line.

    My PATH still looks like this:

    rhudson@adam:~$ echo $PATH /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin

    What could be changing my path after .bash_profile gets its say?

    I am also adding it now to the last line of .bashrc

    I have only worked with .txt files and .odt (libre Office files) for the past few days. I have done updates as offered, but I have not installed anything, and I have not edited any system file as far as I can remember (before this morning, see below for a troubleshooting step taken).

    And I have played Minecraft and watched Youtube and Freetube.

    When I noticed this happening (by trying to launch kpat this morning) I went to look at /etc/profile and added /etc/games to the id=0 part of the path setting and that did not help any so I removed it again. - something is setting the path to SU’s path along the way but I don’t know what.
