Hi Ed,
Oh crap. I missed that part. It is working now.
Thank you!

OK, you got some numbers. Are you really in Munich?

Well, my computer was.....if you count VPN's. :-) :-)

Wow, what a coincidence....
While my VPN was set to Germany, to watch some sports from here in Taiwan, I just realized that the sample redsift.conf is set to use manual.
What finally clued me in was that I thought the VPN endpoint was supposed to be Frankfurt.
Oooppps...

The FAQ had me change to the sample config. It always red shifted, so a little detective work found that the sample file had
location-provider=manual
Switching it to
location-provider=geoclue2
Making sure geoclue was running:
$ systemctl start geoclue.service $ systemctl status geoclue.service ● geoclue.service - Location Lookup Service Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/geoclue.service; static) Active: active (running) since Mon 2021-07-12 03:49:46
And rerunning redshift, gives:
$ redshift Waiting for initial location to become available...
And it never times out
:'(
