IDK, I just know I had to visit reddit quite a few times when googling linux stuff. maybe it’s because I’m still new and looking for relatively basic stuff
So if you say “pants” people in the UK think first of underwear? I know they use trousers as well but I thought pants is still predominantly a word for jeans etc.
kinda. the device in your image only does the job of weighing product, and applying a price per weight to the measurement and printing a barcode label based on that. the 4011 will probably only be used by cashiers, who usually have a number pad to enter those numbers into the point of sale system, instead of a button for each possible number. the device in your image is probably designed like that because it’s for customers and easier to operate. there is probably a chart somewhere out of frame that translates those numbers into products.
Why do people keep doubting you?! They are the exact same but a little bit smaller. Nobody bats an eye when we say that lions and tigers are cats… people are dumb.
I had several drives in my PC, so I wiped a small one and just installed a few different distros and figured out what I liked. I ended up sticking with nobara with KDE.
I didn’t consider that an option because whenever I searched for setcap and flatpak, most threads were pretty dismissive and told OP that flatpak is made with security in mind so doing that isn’t supported.
Regardless, I tried it just now, but the password prompt (image below) still shows up when launching the autostart .desktop file I created. The .desktop file launches a script I wrote, which in turn actually starts GSR through flatpak, in case that changes anything.
Do I assume correctly that this prompt might be gone if I set the capabilities of /usr/bin/flatpak? It’s not something I want to do, so I’ll probably keep trying to get the manually built version installed.
As far as I’m aware the only options to install GSR as a package are AUR/yay (not available on fedora as far as I understand) or flatpak (unable to resolve permission issue), so I do think a manual install is the best option. This is a gaming system so GSR breaking is no huge deal.
Thanks for the tips regarding manual installation! I did not know about -devel packages or about the dnf provides command. They will probably prove to be very useful!
