    Yeah, been fighting something on mine for a few weeks now.

    Search issue - Add this line to the config file

    Adds line to file, nothing changes, Google more - sometimes you also have to add this and this (doesn’t explain why only sometimes)

    Adds this and this. Fixes problem while it’s booting but then goes back to being fucked when the frontend launches

    Googles more - only other solution I can find I can’t do because my hardware doesn’t support it.

      Problems like that are incredibly frustrating. What entries you make look right, but somehow the result is wrong. I usually just assume somewhere along the way the authors of the instructions forgot something incredibly basic like permissions. Because they have their system set up so that they already have them set for their user or something so they don’t have to enter them every time they work on something, so they never think about it and spell out those steps when writing help responses. While help is often well intentioned (and I always appreciate someone’s help) there’s always the opportunity for them to forget what they didn’t know at the most basic level.
