I’m attempting to install and use docker and minikube on an arm machine. I had a working installation of both but I messed up my minikube installation so I uninstalled both docker and minikube to do a full fresh install. I used to following commands to uninstall both:

minikube delete
sudo dpkg --purge minikube
docker system prune --all --volumes
docker stop $(docker ps -aq)
docker rm -f $(docker ps -aq)
rocker rmi -f $(docker images -aq)
docker volume rm $(docker volume ls -q)
sudo systemctl stop docker
sudo apt purge docker-desktop docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-buildx-plugin docker-compose-plugin docker-ce-rootless-extras
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/docker
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/docker
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/containerd
sudo rm -rf /etc/docker
sudo rm -rf ~/.docker
sudo rm /etc/apparmor.d 
sudo rm /usr/local/bin/com.docker.cli
sudo apt autoremove

I confirmed that both were uninstalled using the whereis command.

I then reinstalled docker using the installation and post installation guide on the docker documentation site. But I started running into the following error whenever I tried running a docker command without sudo:

docker ps
Get "https://192.168.49.2:2376/v1.46/containers/json": dial tcp 192.168.49.2:2376: i/o timeout

It runs fine when I use sudo though:

sudo docker ps
CONTAINER ID   IMAGE     COMMAND   CREATED   STATUS    PORTS     NAMES

How can I fix this error? I’m very new to docker and minikube so a detailed explanation would really help. Thank you!
