Hello everyone,

Yesterday I've tried installing corectrl from the AUR but, when I tried to run it, I get the following error:

[09-06-20 21:31:00.457][W] No translation found for locale en_US
[09-06-20 21:31:00.457][W] Using en_EN translation.
[09-06-20 21:31:00.584][W] Cannot start helper
[09-06-20 21:31:00.584][W] Initialization failed
[09-06-20 21:31:00.584][W] Exiting... 

What should I do? My machine's language was always set to en_US; I installed corectrl with yay -Sy corectrl (I also tried corectrl-git, still didn't work), and I also installed the optional dependencies, with no luck whatsoever.

cat /tmp/CoreCtrl.log:

I've also found this issue on upstream's gitlab: https://gitlab.com/corectrl/corectrl/-/issues/89

My setup:

Arch Linux

WM: i3wm (no DEs installed)

Display Manager: LightDM

Display server: X11

I've checked Polkit and it runs just fine. I also tried installing the qt5 package group, but that did nothing to fix the issue.

Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance!

EDIT: solved by running corectrl with sudo

I am running 22.04.1-Ubuntu and trying to install corectrl. I have gotten as far to add it to the repository list and install but when i try and run it i get an error.

[27-03-23 22:31:53.900][W] Empty sysfs entry /sys/class/drm/renderD129/device/hwmon/hwmon7/in0_input

I am using a laptop with an amd cpu, igpu and amd dedicated gpu.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
