Comment Post #290914 Thanks for the hint. I installed PipeWire and I am able to playback my `test.wav` file using `aplay -D plug:jack` without any stuttering. Unfortunately, this doesn't really help me to resolve the issues with Musescore...

Question How to debug audio issues with JACK on Linux
I am trying to debug an issue with audio playback in MuseScore. During this process, I realised that I had/have no clue about audio playback in Linux (or in general for that matter). I already learned about the differences between ALSA and Pipewire (or PulseAudio for that matter) and what JACK is...

Comment Post #290588 This feature is known as [history expansion](https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/History-Interaction.html) and is probably what the OP is looking for. Originally introduced in `csh`, and introduced in `bash`, but also seems to work in `sh` and `zsh`.

Answer A: How to fix the dark mode after the Gnome 1:44 update?
It seems like Gnome requires `xdg-desktop-portal-gnome`. that has been removed to be installed. It turns out that things used to work due to a fallback path that has been removed now. Installing the `xdg-desktop-portal-gnome` package and logging out resolved the issue for me. For bonus points:...

Question How to fix the dark mode after the Gnome 1:44 update?
I recently updated Gnome to 1:44.0 and since the update my dark mode settings seem to be ignored for Gnome applications. When setting the dark style in Settings&nbsp;>&nbsp;Appearance, the desktop background is updated, but applications remain bright. I tried restarting (log out and reboot), but Gn...

Answer A: What does Gnome Disks "erase" do?
Not quite sure what exactly happens, but the Erase option should do something like overwriting the data that used to be on the disk. When formatting a disk, typically only the partition tables are reset and the disk would look empty. The data, as in the bytes that make up the files, will typically ...

Answer A: How to change the default app for opening directories in Gnome?
By digging further into the details of `xdg-open`, I stumbled upon this page in the Arch wiki. There it states that `xdg-open` will delegate the task of opening a file to the handler of the Desktop Environment (DE). In the case of Gnome, this will be `gio`. My Solution The available applicati...

Comment Post #289354 `xdg-open` indeed opens the directory with vscode as well, however, `xdg-mime` lists Nautilus as the default program again. I'll have to do some more digging.

Question How to change the default app for opening directories in Gnome?
I somehow managed to unknowingly change the default app for opening directories on my laptop. E.g. when I use the option open containing folder in a program like Evince, my editor (vscode) opens up instead of my file manager (Nautilus). I have been experiencing this for some months now and it is ...

Answer A: GUI apps stop working until next boot after some system upgrades
Typically it is recommended to reboot your machine after a kernel update (because of the issues you mentioned). If you really do not want to reboot, there is a workaround by means of the `kexec` system call. I have never tried it myself, but after installing the kexec-tools package, you should be...

Answer A: How to change keyboard layout without a DE?
According to the keyboard layout wiki, keyboard configurations (for both the console and Xorg) can be conveniently set using the `localectl` command. In order to set a second keyboard layout, we have to dig into the manual page. There it is stated that a second layout (for the console) can be set...

Answer A: How to change the keyboard layout with Gnome and Arch linux?
As the keyboard layout wiki suggests, `loadkeys` only sets the keyboard layout for the current session. In order to persist these changes, the `KEYMAP` variable must be set in `/etc/vconsole.conf`. This is exactly what is happening when executing ```sh localectl set-keymap --no-convert fr-latin1 ...
