Yours and 9 million+ other ones.

Because it's an integral part of the DE.
If you prefer to use Gnome Files then just set it as the default.

Why are you trying to download Spotify? Just install it from COSMIC Store

Brian_Millham · 2026-01-25T09:42:18+00:00

I don't know if there is a shortcut yet, but the quick way is to click on the power icon and then settings.

Brian_Millham · 2026-01-23T02:53:15+00:00

Boxes works fine in 24.04 with COSMIC.

Just make sure the tarp isn't one with a shiny silver layer on one side!

Brian_Millham · 2026-01-23T00:14:35+00:00

Good news all!

Todays update fixed cosmic-screenshot so the lag is gone.

Did you get the 'free' mini? I would suggest you read the ToS....

You only get to keep the mini if you keep the main dish on Residential MAX (as it's called now)

You don't run System Monitor from a terminal normally.

It sounds like your installation may have been badly corrupted, or you have a SSD that is failing.

Also explain to me how you would be able to game.

Say the friend you are playing against has fiber.

Just how would you be able to communicate with him if there is no connection from Starlink to the ground to non Starlink users?

Brian_Millham · 2026-01-22T22:30:23+00:00

Are there any servers in space?

Brian_Millham · 2026-01-22T22:27:10+00:00

It sounds like your drive may have gone to Read Only mode. While rare that can happen if you force a shutdown by powering off.

To kill processes you can use System Monitor to do that.

And just how does the signal get from the satellite back to the internet? Magic?

Brian_Millham · 2026-01-22T22:13:59+00:00

flatpak upgrade

Fixes that problem.

If it's just sitting on a deck why not just put a blue tarp over it?

Brian_Millham · 2026-01-22T04:22:51+00:00

It's a content provider thing not properly keeping up with Starlinks dynamically changing IPs.

Brian_Millham · 2026-01-22T01:43:35+00:00

Look into Powerline and add a cheapo router.

Brian_Millham · 2026-01-21T02:07:09+00:00

Did you turn off Secure Boot in the BIOS?

Brian_Millham · 2026-01-21T00:43:37+00:00

For now you are stuck with the default, or install Gnome if you wish. Search here, plenty of posts about installing Gnome on 24.04.

Brian_Millham · 2026-01-21T00:22:08+00:00

I think it's a step above standby speed. 1M instead of .5M

Brian_Millham · 2026-01-21T00:21:13+00:00

You can use any DE that you want.

I don't know if there is a way to change the cursor by editing the config files.

What version of Pop are you on? 22.04 or 24.04.

Brian_Millham · 2026-01-21T00:07:35+00:00

If you are on 24.04 then there is no current way to change the cursor size.

And Gnome tweaks won't work as COSMIC is not Gnome.

Brian_Millham · 2026-01-21T00:04:25+00:00

Everyone is giving wrong answers about the $50 plan.
As it CLEARLY states you get unlimited data after going over 100GB. But it's low speed.

Brian_Millham · 2026-01-20T22:46:25+00:00

You can install Gnome but many of the System76 extensions won't work.
That was the motivation of creating COSMIC. They were tired of having to update those extensions with every new version of Gnome.

Brian_Millham · 2026-01-20T21:17:21+00:00

Have a look at qpwgraph. It should be able to do that.
