failed instance's window is still open just prints "Calamares is already
|
||||
running.": close that window first (its Cancel/Afbreken button, then
|
||||
confirm the "really cancel?" dialog).
|
||||
- Run `pkexec-wrapper calamares -D6` in its **own Konsole tab**: it stays
|
||||
in the foreground and blocks that tab's shell. Typing into the same
|
||||
tab afterwards just echoes the text inertly into Calamares' stdin
|
||||
(no error, nothing runs). Open "New Tab" in Konsole for commands.
|
||||
- Calamares' Welcome page applies its keyboard layout to the live session
|
||||
immediately (a live typing preview). If it's not US (e.g. Dutch after
|
||||
picking Nederlands), `qmptype.py`'s US-layout key map silently sends
|
||||
the wrong characters afterwards: `/` becomes `-`, `(`/`)` get garbled,
|
||||
with no "no key for" error. `setxkbmap us` does nothing on Wayland.
|
||||
Probe with a symbol-free command (`echo test123`) after any
|
||||
language/keyboard step, and fix the layout from the live session's own
|
||||
settings before typing paths or shell syntax again.
