I have a coolermaster devastator II keyboard and the light doesn't work. I've tried xset on in terminal as well as brightnessctl with no luck.
I did a clean install of Ubuntu 26.04. After all the updates and setting it up, I set the display at 4k but the highest refresh rate available is 29.97hz. In 24.04 I could get 59.97hz. How can I or anyone at connical fix this? I am assuming its a Wayland issue as I was always on Xorg before this. I am using a Asus Rog Strix gaming PC with Geforce 2070 super graphics card. I use HDMI2 cable to my home theater, then to my TV. The install was fast and clean.
Thanks
Running KDE and Ubuntu linux 24.04.4. After last update, netmanager(??), wl01 no longer appears in the window with the WIFI sources. Also, a connection that has worked for two years, (http://ares:10000) webmin, no longer works, connection cannot be found. However, if I use the local connection, 127.0.0.1, it connects to webmin.
Also, some links at websites no longer work. For example, I went to askubuntu.com and clicked on the 'login' button. I got a connection can't be found...however on another ubuntu linux box, all if fine. That how I'm entering this question. The second linux box is running Ubuntu 25.10.
I'm puzzled. It worked yesterday, today it doesn't and the only thing I did was to do the update. Any suggestions how to fix this?
I have a intel wifi adapter that is built into my motherboard and i was able to get wifi back up and running temporarily by just reloading my wifi module but now its not working again after I turned it off and on again the next day and I've tried redownlouding things and reloading wifi module again but nothing is working.the only why I've gotten wifi to my computer is through a wired connection through my phone. it does see the wifi adapter but for some reason i cant get wifi.
The do-release-upgrade upgraded me to 26.04 LTS but the Ubuntu Pro feature now found in Security Center tells me that my Ubuntu Pro is not compatible with my version of Ubuntu because it's not LTS. "lsb_release -a" tells me this is indeed 26.04 LTS.
My attempted solution was to install from downloaded media thinking the "do-release-upgrade" messed something up. Booting to this leaves me with a blank monitor, though booting appears to be successful as I heard the cute little tune when it boots.
Booting to hard disk failed then, leaving me with a blank monitor. Repeating the boot process 3-4 times eventually got the video functioning.
This is not ok. I don't really know what state my machine is in, but I'll leave it for now. I'm hoping things will be fixed in time.

Bug 1: Ubuntu Pro isn't recognizing Ubuntu 26.04 LTS as supported
Bug 2: Ubuntu 26.04 installation media doesn't not support ultra-wide monitors.
Bug 3: The Ubuntu 26.04 installation media changes something in the computer video configuration so booting to the hard drive after a failed flash-drive installation doesn't return the computer to default configuration: the monitor is still blank upon booting to the installed Ubuntu 26.04. Several boots in succession is required to get the monitor functioning again.
Hi my ubuntu isint letting me move my pak files from iso image to desktop
I just installed Kubuntu 26.04 LTS with a clean install, but when I create the numlock.conf file in SDDM.conf.d to activate the numeric keypad on my keyboard, it doesn't work. I've already tried renaming it to 30-numlock.conf, adding the line Numlock=on to kde-settings.conf, and other things. Does anyone know how to fix this? (I'm using the WhitSur-Dark theme throughout my Kubuntu system, although I tried reverting to Breeze and Plasma without the numeric keypad activating—I have to press the key on the physical keyboard to activate it. In version 25.10, it worked without problems with numlock.conf.)
I recently installed Ubuntu 26.04 LTS on my laptop and attempted to install the GlobalProtect VPN client.
The backend package installs successfully, but the UI package fails during installation due to a missing dependency.
The same package works correctly on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.
Installed Packages:
GlobalProtect_deb-6.1.4.0-711.deb GlobalProtect_UI_deb-6.1.4.0-711.deb
Commands Used:
sudo apt install ./GlobalProtect_deb-6.1.4.0-711.deb sudo apt install ./GlobalProtect_UI_deb-6.1.4.0-711.deb
Terminal Output:
Some packages could not be installed.
Unsatisfied dependencies: globalprotect : PreDepends: libqt5webkit5 but it is not installable
Error: Unable to satisfy dependencies.
Observation:
GlobalProtect backend package installs successfully UI package installation fails Dependency libqt5webkit5 appears unavailable in Ubuntu 26.04 repositories Same installer works without issue on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
Expected Behavior: GlobalProtect UI package should install successfully or required dependency should be available.
Actual Behavior: Installation fails due to missing dependency.
Request for Support:
Is libqt5webkit5 removed from Ubuntu 26.04 repositories? Is there a replacement package available? Is there a recommended workaround for VPN applications depending on Qt5 WebKit? Has anyone successfully installed GlobalProtect UI on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS?
Additional Information: System Architecture: amd64 Kernel: Linux 6.x VPN Client Version: GlobalProtect 6.1.4-711
Any guidance or workaround would be appreciated.

My desktop is fitted with the 22.04 LTS version. But I want to upgrade to the latest one. I regularly get automated announcement that a new version is available but when I click on the "upgrade now" nothing happens. I tried through the terminal, again I'm denied and it ask me to install the latest update (which I did through a sudo apt update/upgrade). If I try with the Software updater, I can't even do that as it says my computer is not connected to Internet, which is untrue because I'm writing this message on my desktop.

I have a computer (Kubuntu 24.04) on my local network with 3 folders shared through samba. Two of them are on an internal hard drive and the other computers on the network are able to access them with no issues.
However, the 3rd one is on an external usb hard drive and I haven't been able to get the other computers on the network to mount this one. In /etc/fstab I have:

to mount it when the computer starts.

I reinstalled Ubuntu 24.04 few weeks ago and have had no issues until today when all of a sudden image files only show generic thumbnail icon instead of image preview thumbnails. Here's what it looks like:
I've followed every suggestion and solution that I could find and the problem persists. Anyone have an idea of why this happened and a solution that works?
--EDIT--
Thanks DanielT. I looked at the link you provided. I've performed the same steps as did the OP, to no avail. As for the Solution, I've updated AppArmor cuz that was easy, but I'm not sure to do the following:
I am new to Linux. I have an RX 9060 XT and encountering a Linux-only issue where the GPU fails to initialize, resulting in a black screen when the monitor is connected to it.
The GPU works normally in Windows, but on Linux it fails during kernel driver initialization.

When the monitor is connected to the RX 9060 XT and the system boots:

sudo cp -r amdgpu/* /lib/firmware/amdgpu/
sudo update-initramfs -u
Verified BIOS settings:
Also, I did not install any drivers from the AMD website.
What could be causing this issue?
I cannot install the new Ubuntu with Hardware-backed encryption because of this error:
PCR_UNUSABLE
error with secure boot policy (PCR7) measurements: unexpected EV_EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_APPLICATION event for \EFI\BOOT\BOOTEX.EXE after already seeing a verification during the OS-present environment. This event should be for the initial boot loader.
I have reset the TPM and reset the secure boot keys, I have cleared the drive so it is completely empty.
I am using a Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 1 (Intel Edition), I have disabled the Intel features like AMT.
Is there anything I can turn off to fix this issue? Anything will help.
I am on Ubuntu 24.04. After a recent update, some of my files, including:
png image generated by one of my codes
Screenshots taken
Clean pdf files downloaded
have no preview thumbnails that were downloaded after the update was installed.. Older ones are still being displayed correctly. I tried the following commands:
sudo rm -rf \~/.thumbnails/\* \~/.cache/thumbnails/\*
and
sudo dnf install glycin-thumbnailer
but they did not work, and the problem only got worse after executing the first of the above commands, where the remaining thumbnails were also gone. I also tried nautilus-q but it didn't work.
I have a strange thing I cannot figure out. Have checked manpages, etc. So hoping someone else had the same issue.
To convert from a normal .list file to a .sources file, as is now used in Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, I will use tor as an example:
Old way (tor.list):
deb [arch=amd64> signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/tor-archive-keyring.gpg] https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org jammy main
deb-src [arch=amd64> signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/tor-archive-keyring.gpg] https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org jammy main
New Way (tor.sources):
Types: deb
URIs: https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org
Suites: jammy
Components: main
Signed-By: /usr/share/keyrings/tor-archive-keyring.gpg
The problem I have is this:
In the tor.sources, from what I can find, there is no way to specify the arch / architecture. I've tried arch, architecture, system, etc. Nothing works.
This is the error I get:
N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-i386/Packages' as repository 'https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org jammy InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'i386'
I know this is a cosmetic thing and it mostly just effects logs, etc. But, simply finding a way to specify the arch would fix this entirely.
Anyone has any ideas?
Note: in this example jammy is used, because tor does not yet have noble and jammy does actually work on noble for most repos! This is not the cause of this issue and is not going to solve it :)
RESPONSE TO BEING DUPLICATE (Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-i386/Packages' as repository 'xxx' doesn't support architecture 'i386') ... That is for Ubuntu 22.04 and discusses ".list" files. ENTIRELY DIFFERENT FORMAT AND NOT AT ALL SAME AS ".sources" files.
I have an unattended script for installing servers. At the beginning of the script there is a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade --yes.
The dist upgrade has a nasty user input screen at its end asking to restart services:
Is it possible to autoaccept service restarts or disable this screen? It breaks my whole script. Also Im afraid it might leave my server stuck at some point when updating...
same result with apt-get upgrade
edit: I tried without success:
#!/bin/bash
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get remove apt-listchanges --assume-yes --force-yes &&
#using export is important since some of the commands in the script will fire in a subshell
export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive &&
export APT_LISTCHANGES_FRONTEND=none &&
#lib6c was an issue for me as it ignored the DEBIAN_FRONTEND environment variable and fired a prompt anyway. This should fix it

Somehow I ended with an unbootable system. I traced the problem to my /lib folder and possibly to other system folders

I'm guessing the only solution is to reinstall the system. Am I correct?
My system partition is OK, I think. As well as my home partition. I ran fsck with no problem.

I also executed boot-repair and I got this link https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/4CG9s4R9Dr/
Is there any way to recover the missing system files?
FWIW I think the culprit was a bad Debian package I built myself or the checkinstall program for that matter when I was compiling emacs.

It has the same contents I have in my /lib folder.
I have had Ubuntu for quite some time now and recently I have been having some problems with the generic drivers that have been causing kernel crashes and so many things went wrong that I can't fix anything because every problem keeps me from fixing the others. I discussed the problem about the generic drivers here: Ubuntu 18.04 having kernel panic on boot and I never found a fix.
Now I have decided that the easiest thing to do will be to boot Ubuntu fresh from a CD onto the computer in a different partition and then delete the old one. Now, I am wondering if there is a way to transfer my personal files from the previous partition (my personal files are fine despite the problems I have been having) into the my new boot as I am installing it. Is it even possible or would it pollute my new installation as well? Is it better to transfer the files manually after the installation? I also have Kali Linux and Windows 10 running on the same machine.
I've installed Ubuntu 18.04 LTS alongside Windows 10. I can access the Windows partition and can read the files. But I can't create any files or folders in that partition. All the options for "Cut", "Move to" and "Rename" are greyed out. How can I have write access to the partition from Ubuntu?
The output for df -H command
The contents of fstab file
The output for sudo lsblk -o NAME,SIZE,FSTYPE,MOUNTPOINT,LABEL
I just installed Ubuntu 16.04 on my Windows 10 preinstalled desktop. Everything looks OK, but I cannot shut down on Ubuntu. Every time when I shut it down it gets stuck at a panic error like end kernel panic: not syncing: fatal exception in interrupt.

By now I can only when I finish using Ubuntu: either restart and choose to log in on windows OS and shut down normally (since my Windows works normally), or press the physical power off button on the machine when I was trying to shut down and it froze in Ubuntu afterwards
Here is some information about the desktop and system:
GPU: NVIDIA gtx-1080
256 GB SSD
2T HDD (100GB SSD and 500 GB HDD for Ubuntu)
Ubuntu: '/' and 'swap' on SSD, '/home' on HDD
1 out of 8 times Ubuntu freezes at shutdown. When I click on Esc I see the log and it gets stuck at Reached target shutdown, but it never shuts down. I read somewhere that it's a bug and tried to follow the step of pressing Alt+Prnt screen and then typing REISUB, but nothing happened.
I' m trying to burn a simple mp3 data CD but I can' t get k3b/brasero/xfburn to work. Basically K3b says 'Please insert an empty or appendable medium', like if there wasn' t a CD in the DVD recorder. Similar error messages are shown with other tools. However K3b can recognize the DVD drive, because it can show detailed information about it.

Does anyone know how to fix this?
I can't boot to Ubuntu 12.04. I get a blinking cursor and my caps key LED keeps flashing.
I've tried recovery mode and it gives the same error messages. I've tried loading a previous version from the grub menu, but I still have the same error. It all started a week ago when I upgraded from 11.10 to UBUNTU 12.04 and in the final stages of the upgrade I noticed that my screen had gone blank as usual when you leave your computer unattended for a while. When I moved the mouse it prompted for the password as usual, but when I entered the password I couldn't get to the desktop environment. The Windows partition runs normally.
The error is as follows:
[ 251.908847] Kernel panic: Not syncing: Attempting to kill init!
[ 251.908862] PID 1, Comm: Init not tainted 2.6.38-8-generic #42-ubuntu

I tried running sudo apt-get update using a live CD and got the same error messages.
Got a MacBook Pro, 13 inch, 500gb Hard Drive, 4gb memory. Made a massive screw up on dual install, luckily had already transferred files to Ubuntu one. Ok, trying to install from USB, boots from that perfectly. Currently using the "Try Ubuntu without installation". Looking at GParted:
/dev/sda1: fat32. No mount point. Size: 487Mb, Used: 4.27Mb. Flags: boot
/dev/sda2: ext2. No mount point. Size: 244Mb, Used: 51.69Mb. No Flags
/dev/sda3: lvm2 pv. Mount point: ubuntu-vg Size: 465.05Gb, Used: 465.01Gb. Flags: lvm
Unallocated: Size: 1.02Mb
NB: This was after an attempted install using LVM(?) NB 2: I have no idea what any of these things mean :P I do physics (undergraduate), not computer science!
I keep seeing the install programme through. I have tried doing the install from the trial desktop, doing the install from boot, and doing the install with OEM.
Each time, whenever I restart (as required by installation), it just asks me whether I want to install (black screen with list of boot options). Never gives me the option to boot from currently installed Ubuntu.
I have even tried to take out USB before the restart and it comes up with a flashing file symbol with a magnifying glass in the middle!
