Not sure if these two have any relation, but I have been experiences issues with double-clicking files on the desktop and Dolphin service failing install attempts; this is on a re-installation of KDE Manjaro after some peristent issues with black screens.
The service issue was somewhat remedied by doing a manual install of the service; the “Root Actions” service is what I was trying to enable. As for the second, it works when I double-click in Dolphin but not when on the actual desktop screen; single click is functional.
I do not believe it’s a hardware issue with the mouse as it works no problem in my Windows dual boot (separate HDD).
Edit:
Again, not sure if this is related, there’s been a problem where custom user icons won’t submit or give an option to crop. It’s not a major issue currently but thought to share it here just in case if it’s a sign my installation may have some issues in configurations or whatever.
I having the same double click issue. Basically it works randomly, mostly after reboot.
Got flew shorcuts on desktop to Home, flew disks mounted on /mnt/Folder* , folders within the mounted /mnt disks and documents. Non of them open by double click but selecting any and pressing enter opens them fine. Any ideas? Fresh install done no more than 2 weeks ago.
Old install had the same issue however I’m not sure what was KDE version when that started.
Tested using a new user account and double click works.
I may have an idea, though. I sometimes turn on my drawing tablet and noticed double-clicking wasn’t working when it was before then. Maybe that play a role into this, or there’s an issue with my install?
Okay, yeah. after restarting my pc and testing it, the double-click does start acting up after I enable my drawing display tablet, though disabling it doesn’t fix the issue.
