Uninstall on Pop!_OS.

Remove Ilopad from Pop!_OS, with its settings and the permissions that it added.

Follow the part that matches how you installed Ilopad. Each part removes the program. The last part is optional: it also removes your settings and the permissions that Ilopad added to your computer.

If you added the Ilopad repository

Use this if you installed Ilopad with apt from the Ilopad repository.

1

Quit Ilopad

Open the Ilopad window: if it is not on the screen, click the Ilopad icon in the top panel. Click the menu button at the top right of the window and click Settings. If Display under COSMIC Tablet Mapping shows a display, click Display and select Disabled: Ilopad then removes its entry from the COSMIC settings. If Start on Login is on, clear it.

Close Settings, click the menu button and click Quit. Or quit Ilopad from a terminal:

pkill -x ilopad-server
2

Remove Ilopad

Open the COSMIC Store, click Installed apps, click Ilopad, and click Uninstall. Click Uninstall again to confirm, then enter your password and click Authenticate.

Or remove Ilopad from a terminal. apt removes the program and its menu entry, and closes the firewall ports that Ilopad opened:

sudo apt purge ilopad-server
3

Remove the repository and its key

Delete the two files that you added, then refresh the package lists. apt then forgets the Ilopad repository:

sudo rm -f /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ilopad.sources \ /usr/share/keyrings/ilopad-archive-keyring.pgp sudo apt update

If you installed a single release by hand

Use this if you installed a downloaded package.

1

Quit Ilopad

Open the Ilopad window: if it is not on the screen, click the Ilopad icon in the top panel. Click the menu button at the top right of the window and click Settings. If Display under COSMIC Tablet Mapping shows a display, click Display and select Disabled: Ilopad then removes its entry from the COSMIC settings. If Start on Login is on, clear it.

Close Settings, click the menu button and click Quit. Or quit Ilopad from a terminal:

pkill -x ilopad-server
2

Remove it in the COSMIC Store

The COSMIC Store does not show Ilopad under Installed apps. Open the package that you downloaded instead: open Files, go to your Downloads folder and double-click ilopad-server_amd64.deb. If you deleted it, download it again from the install page.

The COSMIC Store shows ilopad-server with an Uninstall button. Click Uninstall, then click Uninstall again to confirm. Enter your password and click Authenticate.

Or remove Ilopad from a terminal:

sudo apt purge ilopad-server

Remove your settings and the permissions

Optional. Removing the package closed the firewall ports that Ilopad opened, but it leaves these behind. Do these steps after you removed Ilopad with one of the parts above.

1

Remove the access to the input device

Ilopad added a device rule the first time that it asked for access to the input device. Remove it:

sudo rm -f /etc/udev/rules.d/70-ilopad-uinput.rules

If you clicked Use input group or Choose a different group, Ilopad also added the rule /etc/udev/rules.d/99-ilopad.rules and put your account in that group. Remove them too:

sudo rm -f /etc/udev/rules.d/99-ilopad.rules /etc/modules-load.d/ilopad.conf sudo gpasswd -d "$USER" input
Skip the last line if you were in the input group before you installed Ilopad, or if a different program needs it. If you selected a different group, use its name instead of input. If gpasswd says that you are not a member, Ilopad did not add you, and there is nothing to remove.
2

Remove your settings

This deletes your settings, your paired devices and the server key, and also the Start on Login entry. If you install Ilopad again later, you must pair each device again:

rm -rf ~/.config/ilopad ~/.config/autostart/ilopad-server.desktop
3

Restart your computer

If you removed yourself from the input group, restart your computer. Linux applies the change to your groups only when you log in again.
