I am new to this forum but have been regularly using KDE Linux on my laptop for about 3 months. I have to say that it has been smooth sailing for me as most of the applications I use are packaged as Flatpaks or Appimages. However, I am unable to figure out how to setup systemd-extensions on my system to compile Feral Gamemode.
So far I have tried:
The KDE Linux Community Guide but I am unable to run the setup script and cannot create test files in the folders to verify if it works. So, I assumed it didn’t work. I tried to search online for setup scripts but came up empty handed.
Arch Linux systemd-sysext Guide but I always get: HIERARCHY EXTENSIONS SINCE /usr none -
Whenever running systemd-sysext status and I can’t make sense of how to use the —mutable option
I’d appreciate some help with dealing with this issue as I don’t know if its a me problem or something with KDE Linux.
Thanks for replying!
I’m not sure how I am supposed to run the script but after typing the command in the terminal, it says “set-up-systemd-extension” isn’t recognised.
Afterwards,
# Verify that it got enabled
systemd-sysext
The above command only returns: HIERARCHY EXTENSIONS SINCE /usr none -
# Create a dummy file in the sysext
echo "It worked" > ~/kde/usr/foo
This command returns “No such file or directory”
# Refresh the sysext so the system sees the change
sudo systemd-sysext refresh
This command returns “No extensions found”
# Make sure it appeared in /usr as expected
cat /usr/foo
This command returns “No such file or directory” as well.
I think that is what you mean by the specifics but please correct me if I am wrong.
I’ve just checked the system and the current version installed is from September. I believe this is the cause of the problem considering the age of my install but I can’t seem to install the newest version of KDE Linux as the system says its already up to date.
It did happen to me and I was able to update. However after I updated, the newest update booted into emergency mode. The previous version still works fine though.
