Use the SDA 47 Mini

Install Mono

Start the App:

1. Start from .exe (double click the .exe) - works fine

  • ❌ And to Quit I tested:
    • File > Quit - works fine
    • X button - works fine
    • task bar (Right Click > Close)
      • if 📘 Settings for Linux are set - works fine
      • if 📘 Settings for Linux are not set - it fails to close the app ⛔

2. Start from Terminal - works fine

Replace user1 with your user in the command

Terminal: mono "/home/user1/Downloads/SDA 47 Mini Release/Steam Desktop Authenticator 47.exe"

  • ❌ And to Quit I tested:
    • In Terminal use Ctrl+C - works fine
    • X button - Exits the app and gives an error log in the Terminal ⚠️
    • Task bar > Right Click > Close Exits and generates an error log in the Terminal ⚠️
    • File > Quit - generate an error log in the Terminal in ~ 20 sec and after that Exits the app ⚠️⚠️

📘 Settings for Linux:

System Tray: Select > none (default action for button Close and Minimize )

System Tray: Uncheck > Hide Taskbar Icon, Show the icon only on System Tray

System Tray: Uncheck > Start minimized to System Tray


Conclusion

Use 📘 Settings for Linux:

  • Start Using the exe, (shortcut doesn't work)

    • And to Quit use X button or task bar (Right Click > Close) or in Terminal Ctrl+C
  • Or Start from Terminal:

    • Replace user1 with your user in the command
    • mono "/home/user1/Downloads/SDA 47 Mini Release/Steam Desktop Authenticator 47.exe"
