Issue with today's updates

Sorry, I don’t understand the question.

We can’t have the same files in this place, we don’t have the same apps, and we don’t update at the same time. Maybe that explains your question?

Sorry I should have been more specific: your screenshot shows the Size and Exclusive fields (columns) in MB while mine does not. Not a big deal but had wondered previously if there was a way to see data sizes.

As for the update, OS experience itself seems to be working fine (Wayland) but Steam or Proton or Vulkan refuse to see my discrete graphics card and games now only load with my inbuilt AMD.

I think he means by “fields” the information columns like subvolume, created, read-only, and Filesystem. maybe he wants more info for each entry like “size” (not sure if that makes sense or is singular in this type of filesystem) or like kernal verson idk.

I run the apps from the terminal, but maybe scaling the column size just made it hidden?
Make the display full screen and move using the arrow.

mine looks more like his and i can’t drag any of those. its either double incompetence or a theme or related issue. both are very possible.

Haha, yes it’s as you say. The cursor doesn’t change. Even clicking and dragging the line changes nothing.

I suspect there may be a theme issue there also, not sure. I use large Breeze cursors and have modified the default theme towards a more stock KDE situation (although every other window is dark-themed for me).

For me the very same other than the large cursor.

Start in terminal

sudo btrfs-assistant

My first guess would be that @SGS has “btrfs quotas” enabled. With quatas enabled the system can track used space more accurately. The default is to have quotas disabled, as that can cause problems on some systems.

the same look and lack of ability to drag the column sizes or change columns.
“Warning: No translations available” i assume is not interesting.

My colors are nicer, I hate this app in white :wink:

my theme is dark so it sucks being too bright like that on top of the lack of column function. I don’t specifically recall any other programs doing this kind of thing.

OK that did it. :+1:

  • Enable Quotas.
  • Quit the Assistant Program.
  • Load again.
  • See Columns, and they are adjustable (only the new ones can be adjusted).

OK, thats the way.

Try

sudo -H btrfs-assistant

or

sudo -E btrfs-assistant

yes, but theme is still not correct tho.

I’ve probably tinkered with Nico’s theme quite a bit over time :smiley:

sudo -E btrfs-assistant

Oh that looks better!

This error might have something to do with it.

sudo -E btrfs-assistant
Failed to create wl_display (No such file or directory)
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "wayland" in "" even though it was found.
Warning: No translations available

Its time for me to put random code I don’t understand into the Terminal!

edit: i mean its just one option -E lol. I got the same “failed…”

Seems -E follow your theme, I use an alias, and forget this sometimes. :joy:

alias btrfs-assistant='sudo -E btrfs-assistant'
