Failed to add /run/systemd/ask-password to directory watch: inotify watch limit reached
Searching the forums, I found "Best value for max_user_watches" with these two links:

Code: Select all

After some study, it appeared that the "solution" offered in the first of the two links might work, so I tried:
Code: Select all
/etc/sysctl.d# sysctl fs.inotify.max_user_watches=65535
fs.inotify.max_user_watches = 65535
Code: Select all
cat fs.inotify.max_user_watches=65535 >> /etc/sysctl.d/90-inotify.conf
What is actually causing this failure? system? package?
Exactly what package is "offended"?
And, MOST important, what potential danger there is to ignoring such a failure warning?
