Environment seems to be broken
0
I tried using some code to reset my proxy back to all 0's. It seems that I didn't put in the proper variables and now my environment won't load
if [ $(id -u) -ne 0 ]; then
echo "This script must be run as root";
exit 1;
fi
gsettings set org.gnome.system.proxy mode 'none' ;
grep PATH /etc/environment > lol.t;
cat lol.t > /etc/environment;
printf "" > /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/95proxies;
rm -rf lol.t;
I put this code in and now after I login all I get is a nice long look at my background, but nothing else. What do?

I suspect the issue may be that runninggsettingswithsudohas caused some personal settings files to become root-owned: try runningfind ~ ( -user root -o -group root ) -lsfrom a terminal (using Ctrl-Alt-F1 etc. to obtain a virtual terminal if you can't use a GUI terminal emulator) to identify any such

I put that in, now what should I be looking for? It also said that I'm denied permission from my .dbus

There really should be no root-owned files there - seerootowns some files in/home/usershould I be concerned?

I just got back from that and did what it said. The environment is still missing. What now?

I suspect the issue may be that running
gsettings with sudo has caused some personal settings files to become root-owned: try running find ~ ( -user root -o -group root ) -ls from a terminal (using Ctrl-Alt-F1 etc. to obtain a virtual terminal if you can't use a GUI terminal emulator) to identify any such– steeldriver

There really should be no root-owned files there - see
root owns some files in /home/user should I be concerned?– steeldriver
