I want to know if its possible to add a network drive to nautilus or (in my case) to Gnome system-monitor extension. Right Now I am writing in the fstab file the following lines:

Zack here. I have installed a gnome extension: Panel Date Format. I put in my settings and all that, and next thing I know, my clock no longer highlights when I hover over it. It's not anything with my theme, because when I disable the extension, it highlights again. Is there a way to mod the extension to make it highlight on hover again? GNOME version is 40.4. Thanks

I just installed Ubuntu 20.04 and I am trying to install extensions from https://extensions.gnome.org/. I installed the addon for Firefox to load them from the browser, but when I turn the extension on, nothing happens. No error and no message at all.

I tried these things:

1. Install gnome-shell-extensions:

   sudo apt install gnome-shell-extensions
   

2. Install chrome-gnome-shell:

I am looking for a way to easily change profiles between three environments with different monitor setups, I regularly plug my laptop in.

Currently I have 3 monitors.xml files, that I switch each time via cli, but this extension: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/688/display-profile-manager/

looks perfect for my usecase, but is not maintained anymore.

Any known alternatives?

I want to change my gnome shell theme from the user-theme extension using the terminal. I did dconf watch / to check what changing the theme does and the path it gave me was

/org/gnome/shell/extensions/user-theme/name

"Theme-name"

So I try to do gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.user-theme name "Theme name" but it didn't work (Output: No such schema “org.gnome.shell.extensions.user-theme"

Firefox on Ubuntu 21.10 has migrated from .deb to Snap. Now, I cannot install GNOME Shell Extensions, such as Night Theme Switcher, from the extensions store. Is there a good way to install GNOME Shell Extensions using Firefox Snap? Or am I stuck to building?

I used Ubuntu 20.04 for a few months. This is the third I'm using Ubuntu 21.10 and I cannot install this GNOME extension: Emoji Selector

How can I fix this?

I have upgraded from 21.04 to 21.10 having first switched off my gnome extensions as I have had problems upgrading with Gnome extensions switched on in the past. The upgrade seems to have worked ok but my extensions are no longer available. The Tweak tool no longer supports the extensions and https://extensions.gnome.org/local/ shows that a lot of extensions are now "Out of Date" due to 21.10 using G ...

I've used Clock Override for some time and am very happy with the formatting options it lets me choose. After I upgraded to Ubuntu 21.10, I found that that format needed re-applying, and that's when I quickly found that Clock Override has not been updated for newer versions of Gnome (nor does it seem will any time soon).

Can anyone recommend an alternative or a way to do what Clock Override does an ...

I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 21.10 and found that the browser addon for installing Gnome extensions doesn't seem to be working with Firefox. I get the following error when I visit https://extensions.gnome.org/:

Is there a way to add "share via gsconnect" option in nautilus actions?

I can't install any extentions from https://extensions.gnome.org/. When I swithed the button, nothing happens, no pop-ups for accepting the installation.

I am experiencing a strange issue with Ubuntu 18.04 that I don't know could have been caused by a wrong configuration or a conflict from recent application installs. What happened was whenever the child process of a GUI application exists, the parent GUI minimizes. Example cases would be:

Example 1:

Open Naulius, find a tar file and open it by double clicking. Select /tmp then click Extract. Immediately, ...

When open extensions.gnome.org and open any extension, I can press button on/off. It switches but nothing happens, no message about installation pop up. Previously, a year ago, on other machines with 20.04, everything was fine.

Ubuntu 21.04, Xorg, gnome-shell 3.28.4.

I occasionally get a message that this-or-that Gnome shell extension should be updated. (Latest: Lock Keys). Trying to update the extension invariably leads to the ubiquitous red "ERROR" message on the extension list (and a defunct extension). The solution is always to restart X (Alt+F2, r), then everything works again (until the next update is signalled).  ...

In Gnome Tweak Tool, I'm unable to change the enable open weather:

I have touchegg setup to use touchpad gestures, and I'm also using the Gnome Workspace Matrix extension to use 2D layout of workspaces. I'm trying to use a gesture to switch between workspaces by having touchegg send keyboard shortcuts (Control, Alt, and an arrow key), but Gnome is ignoring them. Something odd I'm noticing is that when I use the gesture all the keys show up in xev, but when I physically p ...

I really liked how we used to have the window action icons on the top bar back in ubuntu 16.04. Now to get the similar top bar feel on Ubuntu 20.04, I installed Unite Gnome Extension. This used to give me almost the same look and feel but for some reason it is not working properly on Firefox 90.0.2 and is showing the window options separate to the top bar (refer to the image below).

Gnome extension(extensions.gnome.org) key binding not working,extension window getting stuck when i'm trying to bind the keys on Ubuntu 21.04.

I use the Dash-to-Panel extension (see for example https://askubuntu.com/a/1052673/800252) to get a Windows-like toolbar. This should allow either grouping or ungrouping multiple instances of an application and if ungrouped it should allow rearranging their order (after checking that Lock taskbar is off). For the most part this works perfectly. However, for at least one application (Mathematica) diffe ...

I am following Linux Scoop's tutorial on installing the Orchis theme and I was able to install and choose the themes for Applications, Cursor and Icons but I am not able to choose "Orchis" in the drop down menu for Shell.

I followed the same steps that Linux Scoop did and I also copied the theme to Home/.themes and also usr/share/themes. I tried restarting my pc and it still doesn't show up. What ...

I see some strange behaviour here. I'm running Ubuntu 21.04 and Gnome-shell on a number of computers, and it works very well indeed. BUT there seems to be a small glitch with a couple of the extensions, namely Autohide Battery and Impatience. When I go to extensions.gnome.org and select Installed Extensions, these two extensions always display a green Update button, even shortly after they have have b ...

I thought this is the alternative for ping-msg in kdeconnect cli but it keeps giving a JS Error:

To the best of my knowledge these errors are because of either 2 gnome-shell extensions or virtualbox. I have removed both now but still getting the problems maybe they have corrupted system configuration. Is there any way to fix it?

Now I don't know what's going but I haven't received a single snap update for quite few days.
