I presume your system is Linux and you installed LibreWolf as a snaps or flatpak package. When installed like this, the browser isn't aware of your system's proxy settings, you will need to set the localhost and port of proxy manually.

Okay, I tried it (along with touché the gui, and it's worst here, it breaks the whole system ability to make use of the touchpad. I guess problem with the gnome version of MATE. Thanks for your help bro

is MATE absolutely necessary

well I'm too tired to format again. I chose it cuz it is just lighweight ubuntu (knowing that ubuntu is pretty popular = I get more support) and I recently got an ssd dying from opening multiple firefox windows so being lightweight is important, also MATE has GNOME2.

I will try a bit more with fusuma cuz it looks optimal, if it doesn't work I'll try libinput. Thank you sir!

I just now opened the terminal and ran this, nothing happened. The I ran "fusuma" and tried pinch zoom and 3 fingers gestures also nothing happened.

Okay! But shouldn't the problem be resolved when I ran "fusuma" without sudo then? It does nothing to the system

I did the installation multiple times yesterday and shutdown my laptop, now I ran fusuma and I can't even pinch zoom on a PDF

a quick google shows that MATE uses GNOME 2. Is this not enough ?

I think I forgot one command, the second one. If so, should I just go again through the whole process or I have to uninstall the changes before that (I don't know how to do this)

haha, sorry nope, I'm african

aaah! okay. So if I'm doing things correctly, why doesn't fusuma have any effect on my system ?

I'm new to linux, running last version of ubuntu MATE. Tried to get fusuma to have a better experience with my touchpad (I'm using an hp notebook). I followed the whole guide for ubuntu users on the Github page, created the config.yml using these two commands:

mkdir -p ~/.config/fusuma

nano ~/.config/fusuma/config.yml

Then I used the config.yml file they provided and got the result you see in this image when I launched sudo fusuma, i.e the error :

config file: /root/.config/fusuma/config.yml is NOT FOUND

Then I run just "fusuma" without sudo and the error disappeared, but fusuma does literally nothing. Can someone please help me with this?

This is the first time I installed a Linux distro (I heard it lowers the possibility of getting a blue screen which happened to me lately result of my SSD dying). So I really don't understand permissions here (how I run things as administrator like in windows) and the difference between root and home clearly, I don't even know how to uninstall fusuma to try again now!
