Linux on HP Chromebook x2 - Trackpad not working correctly https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568431/linux-on-hp-chromebook-x2-trackpad-not-working-correctly

Chromebook in question: HP Chromebook x2 - touchscreen tablet with detachable keyboard.

Following the guides on mrchromebox.tech, I was able to get Lubuntu installed. Everything is working great except the trackpad. The cursor "warps" to the corresponding location on the screen to wherever I touch the touchpad (if I touch the top left of the touchpad the cursor instantly moves to the top left of the screen) and it constantly clicks and drags as I move my finger around the touchpad.

Touchpad in question:

I haven't used Linux in a decade or so so you'll have to excuse my ignorance. I used AI to give some bash commands for the below info. Let me know if I can provide more info.

nautilus is not showing my home directory contents https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568429/nautilus-is-not-showing-my-home-directory-contents

Up until couple of days ago, everything was honky-dory. Went thru few firmware updates using firmware-updater GUI, and reboot every time I was asked to earlier today. I am not sure if what is happening is tied to that action. I'm on Version 24.04 When I open nutil;us, all I see is a snap folder. When I launch terminal, I can see all my files but in nautilus only a snap folder. Any other link from the left panel, i.e., downloads, Documents, Music etc is giving me "Oops, something went wrong" message but displaying the correct path under it and said path is accessible and has the ownership of my user all throughout as I see it in my terminal. I used to be a Unix/Linux sysadmin back in the day but later switched to infosec and retired few years back. I can still find my way around bash but these GUI crap is all nonsense to me.

namespaces in flatpack/steam - error message https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568428/namespaces-in-flatpack-steam-error-message

'Steam now requires user namespaces to be enabled.

This requirement is the same as for Flatpak, which has more detailed information available: https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/wiki/User-namespace-requirements'

The documentation on github may as well be in Martian.

Make Nautilus prompt for password to mount Windows share https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568414/make-nautilus-prompt-for-password-to-mount-windows-share

Is it possible to get Nautilus to prompt for a password when mounting a file-system that requires one, like how the mount command does, so I don't have to mount it separately from a command line first?

I have a Windows network share configured in /etc/fstab with:

//host/share /path/to/mount-point cifs user,username=Smylers@AD-DOMAIN.LOCAL 0 0

There's also an icon for it in the Gnome dock and an entry for it in the left column of Nautilus windows. Clicking either of those attempts to mount it without prompting for the required password, which obviously fails, giving an error message like:

Unable to access Password for (blurred): mount error(13): Permission denied. Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) and kernel log messages (dmesg)

At a command line I can do:

mount /path/to/share

and I get prompted for the Active Directory password required by the Windows server doing the sharing. When I provide that, I get access and can browse the location in Nautilus. (I get the same error as with Nautilus if I provide the wrong or no password.)

Can Nautilus be made to ask for the password, rather than trying to mount it without one, so I don't have to run the terminal command before clicking the icon? (Note I'm not interested in storing the password in a file or any method that mounts without being prompted for it. I want to have to enter it.)

This is using Ubuntu 24.04, with whichever versions of Nautilus and Gnome come with that.

Issues getting drawing tablet input to draw with Kamvas 13 Gen 3 https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568412/issues-getting-drawing-tablet-input-to-draw-with-kamvas-13-gen-3

I just got my tablet today, downloaded the drivers and installed them. Then restarted the PC. The buttons and dials all work with the proprietary drivers, but the Pen refuses to work as anything other than a mouse when a drawing app or window is involved. On the "Test settings" part of the Graphics Tablets settings, pen and pressure work. But on any other art program it's not interacting at all.

Same thing with OpenTabletDriver.

I found out that the pen and pressure do work with both drivers through a test. If I bring the mouse into the canvas as a brush and move it, then I put draw with my stylus, then I can draw with the tablet, pen pressure and all working. Though if I stop, I have to repeat the process. Some apps allowed me to test the tablet, and their log showed me that the stylus input isn't recognized unless I bring the mouse in the drawing area and move it, while testing my pen to draw. It's either the mouse input gets recognized or the stylus one does, and the mouse input has priority.

Can anyone tell me what I'm missing here?

I'm on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, Wayland.

How my Graphics Tablets sections looks like.

I checked my Graphics Tablets sections, and by default it looks like:

  • Huion Kamvas 13 (Gen 3)

  • General Pen with no Eraser

Which doesn't work and is just a second monitor to my screen. Pen doesn't get recognized on input or proximity.

When I launch Huion's driver, it *adds* to the list:

  • Huion Tablet

  • Huion Tablet

  • Huion 256C PEN STYLUS **shows the same icon as previous two**

  • General Pen Eraser **this makes it two pens**

Or if I launch OpenTabletDriver, it would add:

  • OpenTabletDriver Virtual Assist Tablet

  • General Pen Eraser

When I launch either OpenTabletDriver or Huion's proprietary drivers, pen is finally recognized though as just a mouse unless I do the aforementioned test. Essentially, the tablet only registers a stylus input when the mouse cursor is moving.

Steam update now appearing in Ubuntu 24.04 Software Updater? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568397/steam-update-now-appearing-in-ubuntu-24-04-software-updater

Today upon starting my Ubuntu 24.04 Software Updater, I was surprised to see it had Steam updates in it. I excluded the Steam parts and ran the updater. I reran it and it still had Steam updates. I closed it without going any further.

I then started my Steam and told it to check for any updates. It said its already at the last version. So what's going on here? Is this a hacking attempt?

uname -a gives Linux mglinux 6.17.0-40-generic #40-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri Jun 19 16:42:13 UTC 2026 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I changed from LTS to normal for upgrades. This has not been smooth with a number of attempts, alternating through these commands:

  1. sudo apt do-release-upgrade
  2. sudo apt --fix-broken install
  3. sudo dpkg --configure -a

The upgrade stalls because of a dependency on php8.4-common(= 8.4.11-1ubuntu1.2) which cannot be installed.

Is there a way to proceed?

Here is the command line response for sudo apt --fix-broken install

Rhythmbox 3.4.7 on Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS; where do my extracted CD files get written? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568346/rhythmbox-3-4-7-on-ubuntu-24-04-4-lts-where-do-my-extracted-cd-files-get-writte

I used the Extract command on Rhythmbox; it took an appropriate amount of time for each of 21 tracks, with a status message near the bottom of the UI indicating that it was extracting 1, 2, etc. But now I cannot find the music, nor documentation on where Rhythmbox Extract puts the music.

In case it matters: I extracted to MP3, I have lame installed.

EDIT: Yes, I have looked through the folders in ~/Music/

EDIT 2: I have even done a search starting at / for words I think should be in extracted filenames, but didn't find anything that way either. However, the output of that is large, I was hoping someone could tell me where they're supposed to end up.

My Ardour is not seeing my Scarlette 2i2 and it seems to be because of a broken ALSA file https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568333/my-ardour-is-not-seeing-my-scarlette-2i2-and-it-seems-to-be-because-of-a-broken

Ardour is not seeing my Scarlette 2i2 in the input, so I am unable to record. A certain error message pops up when I open the app manually through the terminal (I run it on Linux).

Ardour: [ERROR]: AudioEngine: cannot load module "/snap/ardour-snap/33/usr/lib/ardour9/backends/libalsa_audiobackend.so" (libOSSlib.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)

I copied the message into Gemini, and it told me that a certain file was broken.

it told me that a certain file was broken.

Gemini is telling me to download the "native binary version", but that version is older (5.0), and my files were created in a newer Ardour version. I also used to have the binary version, and it kept crashing on me, which is why I switched to the current one.

How can I override the sudo being used by ansible for a given host? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1566824/how-can-i-override-the-sudo-being-used-by-ansible-for-a-given-host

I have a number of hosts running Ubuntu in a lab managed by ansible. Ansible is used to upgrade and install specific deb and apt packages.

I've just upgraded one to 26.04 LTS. The upgrade caused a problem with ansible, triggered by the transition to sudo-rs.

How can I specify for a specific machine a different sudo executable; in this case, /usr/bin/sudo.ws?

"kvm_amd CPU x isn't AMD or Hygon" at boot https://askubuntu.com/questions/1564432/kvm-amd-cpu-x-isnt-amd-or-hygon-at-boot

kvm_amd CPU x isn't AMD or Hygon?

This text appear early in the boot sequence.

Now this is not really causing any trouble, RIGHT NOW.
But I consider all similar messages to be a potential hazard to the stability of my machine.
Therefore I quite fiercely hunt them down, and "swat them out".
The more of these unwanted messages you have the greater potential for strange interference and malfunction.

These are apparently about virtualbox:
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/798132/why-and-how-were-kvm-modules-unexpectedly-enabled-in-ubuntu-24-04
KVM not supported shown in terminal while it is enabled

... but I have this on intel-based hardware,
an oldish i7-9750H-based Asus G731 laptop, with embedded GTX 1660 Ti.
NOTE: 6 cores+HT, so message does not appear for ALL cores(!?)
Virtualbox 7.2(?) IS installed though, but quite seldom used.

I have:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= ... kvm.enable_virt_at_load=0
in /etc/default/grub

No go.


Another attempt to fix it:
$ sudo -i
# cat >/etc/modprobe.d/kvm.conf
blacklist kvm
blacklist kvm-amd
blacklist kvm-intel

CTRl+D

# update-initramfs -u -k all
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-6.17.0-14-generic
...
# 

CTRl+D again

Reboot... I still get a black screen with these boot messages:

[    6.359851]
[   10.531179] kvm_amd: CPU 4 isn't AMD or Hygon
[   11.104935] kvm_amd: CPU 6 isn't AMD or Hygon
[   11.193682] kvm_amd: CPU 9 isn't AMD or Hygon
_

Still there:

[    6.479793]
[   10.253887] kvm_amd: CPU 9 isn't AMD or Hygon
[   10.901341] kvm_amd: CPU 3 isn't AMD or Hygon
[   10.987984] kvm_amd: CPU 5 isn't AMD or Hygon
_

Those CPU numbers appears to be somewhat random, another run: 0, 8 and 0 (yes, zero repeated) at around 10 seconds.

There has been some apt updates so now with:

$ uname -rv
6.17.0-29-generic #29~24.04.1-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Mon May 11 10:30:58 UTC 2

Does anyone have any more ideas on how to actually get rid of this?

Ubuntu 24.04 on Vmware Workstaion Pro 17 not copying and pasting between host and VM https://askubuntu.com/questions/1524684/ubuntu-24-04-on-vmware-workstaion-pro-17-not-copying-and-pasting-between-host-an

First thing first heres everything I'm running: Host-Windows 11 NVIDIA 1060 AMD 5600 VM - Ubuntu 24.04 Virtualisation- Vmware Workstation 17.5.2

The problem I'm having is that Ubuntu and Windows will not allow the copying and pasting of files across systems. I've tried drag and drop, through right click, keyboard shortcuts. The systems will not connect.

I have setup a shared folder in the vmware interface but it doesn't show up.(Picture)

I have had to bridge the network connection because NAT won't work either.

I have checked to make sure Guest Isolation has the drag and drop and copy and paste features enabled (Picture)

No USB's plugged into the host machine will prompt to be connected to the VM either and that setting is also enabled.

The version of Vmware had Ubuntu 22.04 installed on it and the drag and drop worked along with the copy and paste of files. I have noidea why it wont work with this version.

There was a problem with the login page it went black nad unresponsive I think it has something to do with my NVIDIA graphics card and I had to turn off Accelerate 3D Graphics in the display section to get the GUI to load (It would still run cmd line without the setting changed)

How to rename Apple mouse using Ubuntu? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1451285/how-to-rename-apple-mouse-using-ubuntu

System: Ubuntu Desktop 22.04LTS. Hardware: Asus UX305FA laptop.

My mother-in-law had an old Apple AIO, recently replaced. She gave me her old Apple wireless mouse (model A1657). I've paired it with my Ubuntu 22.04LTS laptop and works nicely.

Minor irritant - it identifes as 'her' mouse (listed as Geraldine's mouse #1 in BT settings). Is there any way to rename it in Ubuntu? Doesn't affect functionality at all so I don't really mind if I can't. I don't have an Apple computer if that's required. Clicking on the device in BT settings shows me the address and gives me the option to remove the device / disconnect, but I can't see a rename option.

Thank you!

rsync to Windows Server NTFS share always copies all files/folders https://askubuntu.com/questions/1414789/rsync-to-windows-server-ntfs-share-always-copies-all-files-folders

I am using rsync to backup a folder on my Lubuntu 20.04 host to an NTFS share on a Windows 2022 Server. The command below always copies every file and folder, despite the fact that no changes have been made:

rsync -av "/var/www/" "/media/server2022/web"

I've tried the options below, but it made no difference:

rsync -av --modify-window=1 "/var/www/" "/media/server2022/web"

rsync -av --modify-window=2 "/var/www/" "/media/server2022/web"

Any ideas for how I can sync only new or modified files/folders?

How do I disable/remove Klipper in KDE Plamsa 5? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1380004/how-do-i-disable-remove-klipper-in-kde-plamsa-5

What is an easy way to browse samba shares on linux? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1259692/what-is-an-easy-way-to-browse-samba-shares-on-linux

I find it really frustrating when people send me links to samba shares while I'm on linux. I know some file browsers think they support copy/pasting smb links into the location bar but in practice it just doesn't work. Nautilus just says "Oops! Something went wrong". Dolphin correctly reformats the link and asks for a password but always fails with access denied.

The reliable way is to mount them: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/99065/how-to-mount-a-windows-samba-windows-share-under-linux

But hontestly, I cbf rewriting all the \ to / 🤦, creating a temporary mount point, entering the password, then opening a file browser at that location etc. People on windows can just click on the link and it opens. How can I get the same level of convenience on linux?

I'm running kubuntu but will happily take all suggestions.

I have started my first website (in development) with a simple authentication structure. When I run my website with Homestead, database connection does not work. Actually I can run any mysql command from terminal or mysql workbench, but when I try from browser (homestead.app), I get this error:

How to disable kdeconnectd autostart? https://askubuntu.com/questions/829628/how-to-disable-kdeconnectd-autostart

Update: Looks like it's from /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.kde.kdeconnect.service and I don't see any way to disable DBus services.

Where can I find a metronome for music practice? https://askubuntu.com/questions/814759/where-can-i-find-a-metronome-for-music-practice

This is somehow a follow up of this question:

How can I detect the BPM (beats per minute) of a song?

But now instead of detecting them in songs, I want to generate them.


I am looking for an application that will output a sound (something short like a beep) a configurable number of times per minute.

If I say 20bpm, it will output that sound every 3 seconds. (60/20)
If 60bpm, every sec.
If 120bpm every half a sec.

The reason for this is that I am learning how to play drum sets and the bpm looks really important. I am following this video on youtube.

update

Seems they are called metronomes and even Google got one. Cool Stuff.

hd1 cannot get C/H/S values https://askubuntu.com/questions/664733/hd1-cannot-get-c-h-s-values

Ok, I know there are many questions about this topic, but I can't found a convince answer (fixing the problem or not).

Recently I bought an SSD drive and installed in main SATA (hd0), I've replaced my cd/dvd drive with old hdd drive, using a caddy adapter.

Now I've installed Ubuntu on SSD and windows 10 on hdd.

The problem is on the boot, when I select windows in grub menu I'm faced with this error: cannot get C/H/S values.

I can't set hdd boot on BIOS because it's expected a ODD driver.

I have a Dell Inspiron 14R-5437.

Is there a workaround for this?

How do I turn off Caps Lock (the lock, not the key) by command line? https://askubuntu.com/questions/80254/how-do-i-turn-off-caps-lock-the-lock-not-the-key-by-command-line

For some reason my laptop is stuck in Caps Lock. I have the Caps Lock key mapped by xmodmap to hyper_l, so I don't have a caps_lock key to turn it off. Is there a way I can turn it off by command line? It would be nice if I could reset the lock state without resetting my computer, especially for future reference. This has happened before, but I would like to know now how to do it properly this time.
