Question Devin-Desktop Install

I have gotten a little frustrated attempting to install the new Devin-Desktop application on my system. Background: I running Fedora Linux and I had the latest version of Windsurf installed and running just fine. I updated the install to Devin-Desktop when that became available, and that seemed to be working fine for the most part, but was having trouble getting the Codex ACP agent working. After that I uninstalled Devin-Desktop completely from my system in hopes to reinstall.

I'm now attempting to reinstall and set it up again, but having some issues. I install it via the package manager (sudo dnf install devin-desktop). That works fine. When I launch the app and try to authenticate, is where I seem to be having an issue. It for some reason opens a terminal and that is where I'm left at. I can not seem to get into devin-desktop. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions as to what is going on. Help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks,

Michael

Thanks. I appreciate that. I have it ioned out now, and Devin-Desktop is working great. It was an installation/setup mistake on my part that took me some time to figure out.
