the bottom one
@asen23 how will I do that if I can’t see anything on either screen
I believe that’s exactly what I did I messed with display presentation and resolution
can you go to tty?
ctrl + alt + f1/2/3/4
also do you have windows?
I have windows 11
What’s tty I apologize
do this, basically terminal session
Trying it now
mv ~/.config/kwinoutputconfig.json ~/.config/kwinoutputconfig.json.old
Is that it?
It says there’s no such file or directory
@asen23 this is where I’m at now
And yes TTY works if that’s TTY I sent a pic of
@MOD anyone know how to fix this 🤧
Don't ping mods about issues like this. We're not on call for OS problems.
Mb
You should ping the mods only when you see a scammer or spammer walks around. Thx.
I’m sorry
you messed up the display configuration
so now you have to mess with it to delete it
But like how?
I think I changed the resolution and pressed the option that showed mirror monitor and built in screen pressed apply then this all happend
something about kscreen, people fix it in different ways
if you can dock and display a screen anywhere
you can extend and fix it
I tried 2 monitors
can you get it to work in any monitor?
On one I fixed it and then messed it up
Now on both screens they don’t turn on when docked
if yes go to display settings and fix it
Yeah when I dock them monitor works for gaming mode when changed to desktop goes black
Like fully turns off
ok great you're screwed, try
rm -r ~/.local/share/kscreen and then reboot
other than that dunnoAnd to get there ctrl alt f1/2/3/4
?
yes
And how do you get the scwiggle
its below the escape key with shift
I press fn shift esc
But it like floats in the command
Idk if it’s supposed to
I’ll send a pic
dont
skip ~/
just type the rest
it will wokr if you dont move the folder
with cs
with cd
Alright doing it rn
I’ll let yk
@antheas it’s not doing anything
When I do ctrl alt fn f1
It was working earlier
Try in game mode
Alright I’ll power down so I can get back to game mode
gamemode works
well thats all i can help with
Yes
you can also try start + P
We’ll see if it does anything in game mode
and press the arrow buttons and enter randomly
did you reboot?
I turned it off and back on
sudo reboot exists
Couldn’t open menue to put command in
So I’m here rn:
Ignore the monitor on the left
What is that 😂
you can reboot with a command
didn’t know that
does desktop work now
Nope
well rip
Only bc I can’t do the system command
try start + p, right arrow button 1-4 times then enter
you didnt?
No
alt ctrl f5
Won’t open the menue
well it should
Ohhh
Look
Is this good
yes
login with bazzite bazzite
then type the command i sent you
then
sudo rebootK
WTH
It won’t let me type password
it does
Like it just doesn’t register the key clicks only for username
but you cant see it
just type it
No look
i know
just type it and press enter
yes it has no asterisk
It saying login incorrect
I tried bazzite bazzite
well if you butchered the password and pressed random stuff
try again
with the stuff you put in the installer
Yeah
I put deck
And LKLGreek
But it doesn’t do anything
what do you mean doesnt do anything
do you have a command prompt?
I see this now:
type the command i wrote above
then
sudo rebootK
I’ll send a pic before I do it
Is that correct @antheas
good
reboot
And then enter @antheas ?
yes
K
Bro wtf is wrong with this thing
just type your password
I put my password it doesn’t move
yes it doesnt
No literally does nothing
just type it and press enter
Are you sure
yes
I trust you
It’s restarting now
thats it, if it doesnt work now youre cooked
If it doesn’t I can reset and reinstall right?
yes
Alright we’ll see what happens
Finger 🤞
Fuck
lol
So for reinstall how do I delete this current installation?
Or could I start a new one with my flash drive
give me 5 min
Yes
because so many of you mess up the display of the legion go
its worth figuring this out
lol
Yeah I mean if you figure it out I’ll do whatever I can
while you are in gamemode
in steam
not in desktop
type the same command
and reboot
maybe rebooting made it save the broken config again
so do it without going to desktop
So in game mode how would I open the command up
same way
alt ctrl f5
Alright
Doing it again
Is there a space after the . Local
Maybe I put it in wrong
I did no space
ok great you're screwed, try
rm -r ~/.local/share/kscreen and then rebootyea
Op
Maybe I mistyped them
if it doesnt say an error youre good
Gocha
hopefully you didnt add a space otherwise you might have deleted something else too. Although that folder does not have important stuff
Yeah
Is there a space between / share
Where it indents on the message
no
no space at all
no space between . and local
Says no file directory
there are no spacaes
Gocha
I’ll redo it
Says it doesn’t exist @antheas
I don’t think I mistyped it
there are spaces between rm -r and the location
there are no spaces in the location
Alright think I did that but I’ll try again
Says no file/directory
show
Yup
and going to desktop doesnt work now?
I can try again
It didn’t after the first time
But we’ll see after now
If this doesn’t work I’m down to just reset and reinstall
your tilde looks off
should be level, not at the top
~/
no its ok
you can see bash expanded the dir below
Still liek this ^
disconnect the cable
The hdmi?
yea
Ok
Still rainbow
yea reset its not worth messing with anymore
although a variant of deleting your settings should work
I mean what do you reccomend
let me fuck up my legion go to know what to do
If I reset I think I’d need a little help making sure it doesn’t mess with windows
just delete and remake the bazzite partitions
but give me one sec
Yes
And when ready tell me how to do that idk how to access the files to delete that
If I go to boot menu I can see the stuff
Nooooo
Bro is dedicated
It is a scary screen Fs
Is this right area to go^
I thought you were joking 💔
rm ~/.config/kwin* from gamemode
that fixes itFr fixed it???
Ima try that rn
🤞🙏
I’ll let yk
Ts was so fast of it doesn’t work for me ima delete and reinstall
@nickname put this on the docs
@antheas
Then sudo reboot???
yeah just go back with alt ctrl f1
and go to desktop
Bet
Loading
It can be docked still right @antheas ?
yes
that will fix it
just dont press enter
I see this
HOLLY fuck
press escape
I love you man
I hope you go to heaven bro
Fucking G
Do you want a doom eternal code @antheas
I have one for windows
windows?
Least I can do to pay you back
Yeah
For windows store code
Came with Amazon prime but I already got it on steam
i dont use windows
Rip
Fr if you need anything on Amazon lmk lol
Appreciate you bro fr
Saved me
np just go and game
🫡
I was stressing sm over this
So happy it’s fixed
whats the issue?
changing desktop mode resolution / connecting an external monitor?
does
mv ~/.config/kwinoutputconfig.json ~/.config/kwinoutputconfig.json.old not work?is it already on the docs?
well then rip
it's linked above 😭
but i do not have
rm ~/.config/kwin*i mean its the same
yeah i figured...
i can clarify it better
every day we stray further from god
no i did not read the docs
i thought we didnt have it on the docs for that many people that ask us
put a picture of the screen
use mine
damn "grainy screen" i guess wasnt descriptive enough for people 😭
ill add it
but the bigger issue is that nobody reads the docs
to be fair i just added how to enter a TTY session to it last week
i feel like most new users dont know what that is
it does kill me tho
nobody has to read the docs
we have a search
can search most common questions you see here and there's usually an answer
