Getting this mod to work on Linux

Getting this mod to work on Linux

Step 1

Before you do anything please know that this mod will not work at all if you installed your Minecraft launcher in an containerized environment by using Flatpak or Snap. This is because this mod uses a utility called playerctl, and if your Minecraft launcher is in an containerized environment then this mod will not be able to access playerctl. If you do have your launcher in a containerized environment you can reinstall it by using your distributions built-in package manager like apt for Ubuntu/Debian or rpm for Fedora.

Step 2

Install playerctl by using your CLI. If you are unsure if what playerctl look it up. For Ubuntu / Debian / Linux Mint sudo apt install playerctl. For Arch Linux / Manjaro sudo pacman -S playerctl. For Fedora / RHEL sudo dnf install playerctl. For openSUSE sudo zypper install playerctl
