What is a proper, expected, amount of file descriptors available to the user of Fedora Linux 43?
When Steam gets installed two new files are added to the systemd configuration:
/usr/lib/systemd/user.conf.d/01-steam.conf /usr/lib/systemd/system.conf.d/01-steam.conf Both bump amount of file descriptors to 1024:1048576 (lower:upper limit): [Manager] DefaultLimitNOFILE=1024:1048576 And asking systemd confirms that: $ systemd-analyze cat-config systemd/user.conf|grep NOFILE DefaultLimitNOFILE=1024:1048576 $ systemd-analyze cat-config systemd/system.conf|grep NOFILE DefaultLimitNOFILE=1024:1048576 So same values should appear when "ulimit -n" is called, right? Terminal (Konsole, XTerm) started in KDE session says otherwise: $ ulimit -n -S; ulimit -n -H 4096 4096 But if I do "ssh localhost" then I get proper values: $ ulimit -n -S ; ulimit -n -H 1024 1048576 Same values when I login on text console (VT3): $ ulimit -n -S ; ulimit -n -H 1024 1048576 Where the bug is? How to convince KDE to give me proper amounts?
