Bug ID: 453306 Summary: Can't perform normal fucntions in Dolphin Product: dolphin Version: 22.04.0 Platform: Neon Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: major Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: johndemi...@yahoo.com CC: kfm-de...@kde.org Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY Dolphin won't allow me to create a folder and new config file in /etc by using my password, as is possible in every Linux OS i've used, which as an ADHDer is pretty important. NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. open dolphin 2. right click to add a new folder in /etc so i can add or edit a config file 3. OBSERVED RESULT no option to complete action with the SAME DAMN PASSWORD I'D USE TO DO IT IN THE F*NG CLI I open dolphin, copy the path, paste it into terminal, create the folder, then using terminal open gedit - crap i haven't used an editor like this in 15 years, stop, decide design this bad isn't worth my time and start looking for a KDE replacement again (was this why I stopped b4?), then submit it as a bug, because this is not a feature if I am definitely trying to do this on purpose Let's not pretend the problem is more important than it is. Just give an option at setup / install to enable or disable. EXPECTED RESULT create the folder using the GUI (which is part of the OS) and enter the appropriate password I have ADHD & using the CLI for certain things without being able to SEE the files structure is not useful. Also, two clicks of a mouse + typing a password vs typing out how many characters poorly, then retyping? I'm running a home desktop PC, not critical infrastructure; I'll take responsibility for my own system.
