 +===== Quickfixes =====
  
 +
 +==== Relaunch KDE Plasma after freeze ====
 +Sometimes after some weeks of uptime when I entered my office in the morning, I discovered a freezed Plasma. 
 +To fix this, enter the system via SSH and then execute this command:
 +<code bash>sudo systemctl restart sddm</code>
 +
 +And without re-login:
 +<code bash>
 +kquitapp5 plasmashell && kstart5 plasmashell
 +</code>
 +
 +-----
 +
 +==== Fix NTFS file system ====
 +
 +If a NTFS volume cannot be mounted due to a corrupted filesystem, it might be repairable by using ''nftsfix'':
 +
 +<code bash>sudo ntfsfix -d /path/to/blockdevice</code>
 +Example: ''sudo ntfsfix -d /dev/sda1''
 +
 +After running this command the filesystem might be able to mounted again.
 +
 +-----
 +
 +
 +
 +==== Setlocale failed Debian/Ubuntu ====
 +If you got any error of the following when running ''apt'' or anything else:
 +
 +''locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory''
 +
 +''perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C")''
 +
 +''perl: warning: Setting locale failed.''
 +
 +Just run the following command and select the correct locale:
 +<code bash>sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales</code>
 +
 +Or use:
 +<code bash>sudo localectl set-locale en_US.UTF-8</code>
 +
 +-----
 +
 +==== Allow users to write to specific directory ====
 +
 +To allow any user to read/write a directory adjust permissions with:
 +
 +<code bash>chmod -R 0777 /path/to/dir</code>
 +
 +''-R'' sets the permissions recursively.
