When something does not work as expected

Simple checks for missing windows, wrong display or an app that does not respond.

My windows have disappeared

The “show desktop” function may be active. Press Windows + H again. Also check the other workspaces with the Windows key and a number, and the window switcher with Alt + Tab.

The display does not look right

If everything is too small or cut off, first check resolution and scaling under Displays. If only one app has different colors, check the theme under Appearance and that app's own settings.

Something looks wrong after an update

Save your work and log in again. If an update is blocked because of dependencies, do not skip the package check. The desktop contains components that have to match the installed system version exactly.

Describe a problem well

Write down what you wanted to do, what happened instead and whether the error can be repeated. A screenshot without private content helps, as does saying whether you use the live system, an installed ISO or your own dotfiles.

You can get in touch through the contact options on lichtauf.me. A dedicated public support channel has not been set up yet.
