[SOLVED] Cannot start Guake terminal after adding new hard drive

After adding a new hard drive, moving around some SATA connectors and updating my fstab accordingly, I've encountered this issue when trying to start the Guake terminal:

Guake not running, starting it

I'm currently running kernel version 5.18.11
I'm unfamiliar with these error messages, any help is greatly appreciated!

Thank you, I'll keep an eye on this. Hopefully the issue with libnotify is resolved quickly!
