apt update: repository regolith-linux does not have a Release file
Good morning, I am running Raspberry Pi OS (Debian 11 bullseye) on my Raspberry Pi 400. I have the window manager i3wm installed. Here's my problem: As soon as I try to run ```sudo apt update``` the following error message is shown: ```E: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/regolith-linux/relea...
Good morning, I am running Raspberry Pi OS (Debian 11 bullseye) on my Raspberry Pi 400. I have the window manager i3wm installed. Here's my problem: As soon as I try to run
apt update
the following error message is shown:
: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/regolith-linux/release/ubuntu  mantic Release' does not have a Release file.
because of that I can't update my system and/or install anything. How can I fix this? Or is there a way to "exclude" the regolith-linux repository from apt update ? Thanks, Martin

I am using Regolith 2 on Ubuntu 22.04. I would like to move the status bar to the top of the screen (like in i3). This version of Regolith now uses the concept of [partials](https://regolith-desktop.com/docs/using-regolith/configuration/#i3-features) for configuration, but none of those seem to offer a means of toggling the status bar. The only place where something resembling this setting appears is in the file /usr/share/regolith-look/default/i3-wm. However modifying that file has no effect on the status bar. How can I move the status to the top?

Unable to change the configuration of my new Regolith Linux installation
I am a new user of Regolith Linux. I'm just using the Desktop version with a Ubuntu 18.04.

$ mkdir -p ~/.config/regolith/i3
$ cp /etc/regolith/i3/config ~/.config/regolith/i3/config
After modifying the configuration file (to test, I just changed the name of a workspace), and reloading i3, the changes don't seem to be applied. Can someone help me please!

Regolith 1.6 (21.04) / Ubuntu 21.04 is taking too long to boot
Dual booting Regolith 1.6 and Windows 11 on separate drives (windows ssd / regolith hdd). The total boot time from GRUB to entering the password is about 1m40s which seems a little high even for a HDD.

Please let me know if there is any other info you would need from me. The only three partitions this linux install actually uses (from the blkid): - /dev/sdc2 - ext4 root - /dev/sdc3 - swap - /dev/sdc4 - fat32 EFI system I am not sure if it's relevant but after I select the boot option from GRUB it black screens a bit and then most of the starting time is spent with the BIOS screen showing (but its not able to take the input from the key to go into BIOS settings, so it is just the image).

Changing the preferences of Gnome-terminal globally
Is there any way to change Gnome-terminal settings, such as transparency, globally, so that I won't have to set it again and again after restarting i3-wm? I'm using Regolith Linux.
