If you don't have any other matching files you can use



rm PTT-*[0-9].wav


or even



rm *[0-9].wav


assuming all file names without _s end with a digit before .wav.



I suggest to try with echo instead of rm first or use rm -i to get a confirmation request for every file to avoid accidentally removing the wrong files.

            ASUS Zenbook UX433/UX333 — Configure Touchpad-embedded numpad on Linux

            Image
            0 1 I have an ASUS Zenbook UX433,on which ASUS decided to innovate by embedding a Numpad inside the touchpad (see picture 1). Toggling between classic touchpad mode and numpad (also turns the touchpad LEDs on) can be done through the golden button in the top-right corner of the touchpad. However, on my Manjaro arch Linux config, this behavior does not work by default and I can only use the touchpad, no numpad. Has anyone been able to configure the numpad to work on Linux, or have any idea how this could be achieved? EDIT1: I have had a look at the official Windows drivers for the UX433FA TouchPad, but was not able to make anything of it. I tried installing them on Linux using tools like NDISWrapper, but they do not detect the TouchPad/Numpad hardware, and my understanding of drivers is too limited.
