[SOLVED] Wayland - Some inputs don't work in multiple u-he plugins

[SmoothMountain]

I’m running Reaper on Ubuntu 20.02 using Wayland.
I couldn’t use the search function in several U-He plugins. Their tech support told me to check the permissions of dialog files in the Home/.u-he folder.
So, for Diva, I looked in ~/.u-he/Diva for dialog, dialog.32, and dialog.64. I had to set the permissions to world executable.
From the terminal, I typed:
chmod 755 dialog
chmod 755 dialog.32
chmod 755 dialog.64

That made the search functions work!

YMMV, but it worked for me in Reaper.

OMG! That is incredible. I can't believe it was just a permissions issue <facepalm>

All it took was a simple...

Code: Select all

find ~/.u-he -type f -iname "*dialog*" -exec chmod 755 {} \;

...and now everything works.

SmoothMountain, you are an absolute legend!

In the end, however, it still needs to be fixed in U-he's install script somehow...

Strange that this doesn't appear to affect all platforms. My permissions are all correct, as far as I can tell, and I've certainly never manually changed them.

I have wayland flatpak issues and there's a known bug. Plus nvidia drivers for wayland are still not fully there yet but very close.
