Albert in Linux Mint 21.1 not working #1297

Closed macbeto closed 1 year ago

macbeto commented 1 year ago

Hi;

Description

This week I am doing a new installation of LM 21.1 Cinnamon, passing from LM 20.1 In LM 20.1 Albert worked amazing, light and with all the features I needed (and probably more). In LM 21.1 Albert doesn't launch. i have been reading quite a lot of this issue, but I didn't find the right way to solve it. I removed Albert with all the qt6 packages related, which gives you a broken package message in Synaptic. From that point nothing work, even installing qt6 packages manually, so I had to go back with a system snapshot.

Expected behavior

Steps to reproduce

Just a clean LM 21.1 (also tryed with LM 21.2 Cinnamon) and install Albert from the OBS software repo I suppose it is a well know issue.

is there a way to make a clean installation of Albert or there is no way and I have to leave it (this pain)? If it is the second option I will appreciate indications of how uninstall Albert without broken packages in the system. Many thanks

I see no errors. What's the output of apt? Have you done a dist-upgrade? Probably you have to remove the repo from sources.list and add the proper lm21 repo.

Hi Manuel, I supposed this message was the one giving the problem:

In fact, pressing Ctrl+Space do nothing and executing Albert from the menú I don't get the bar. After the installation I executed Albert from the Menu and did the setup (put Ctrl+Space to launch), but now typing it do nothing although a process albert is executing: <ps -aux | grep albert lixbeto2 18489 0.2 0.2 2008704 174384 pts/1 Tl 17:51 0:02 albert

Please use code fences correctly

ManuelSchneid3r commented 1 year ago

Can you please answer my questions?

ManuelSchneid3r commented 1 year ago

Most likely you have to update your apts sources list since, if you did a dist upgrade you are on LM21 but still pull the albert version for LM20. Closing this for now since i strongly assume that this will solve your issue.

Hi Manuel, I pass from kernel 5.15 tree to 5.19 and now it is working ok. Many thanks for your help. Really good job with the application, for my point of view it is amazing.
