Alright, I think I answered my own question. I think konsole was configured on my computer to have its own method of associating links with files. I tried to open the link on few other terminals (kitty, alacritty, terminator) and it worked on all of those. (more) |

click and open a URI link from a terminal in Docker I am using Docker on Windows (from Powershell) to run a container that runs Rocky Linux. I can run GUI applications (e.g., `xeyes`) from the container by running VcXsrv on Windows, and setting `DISPLAY` to `host.docker.internal:0.0` on Windows and Linux. What I would like to do is open a URI from ... (more) |

Thanks for the answer. I was hoping there was a way to do it without having to write an extension (maybe there isn't, but that was my hope).
Shouldn't it also be possible to make some changes to the top bar by modifying CSS files (e.g., a file such as `/usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gnome-classic.cs... (more) |

Either way, I suppose. I was hoping there'd be an easy way to do it with an external program. But if that's not possible, then it would be interesting to learn how to do it by digging into the source code. (more) |

Sorry for the late reply. Good point, I guess maybe I should have said "ripping" instead of "digitizing". I'm saving the whole DVD as an ISO file. Usually I use the command `dd if=/dev/sr0 of=file.iso`. This command will result in an "Input/output error" if the DVD is encrypted. So if I see that erro... (more) |

My method for ripping a DVD depends on whether or not it is encrypted, so I am looking for a command-line method to determine if a DVD is encrypted or not.

A: How to install printer driver for Canon PIXMA TR4522 printer in Arch Linux I figured this out myself. I needed to install the cnijfilter2 AUR package. Installing this package provided me with the correct PPD file (which was named `canontr4500.pdd`). How I figured this out: I read the Canon section of the CUPS/Printer-specific problems page on the Arch Wiki, which mention... (more) |
