On Ubuntu 22.04 I followed these steps
to stream music via bluetooth. That worked well. On Ubuntu 24.04 pulseaudio seemed to be replaced with pipewire-pulse. I'm looking for description how to set it up. My iphone does not seem to be recognized as an input device.
Although Ubuntu 25.10 has feature to recognise a Bitlocked Windows and install itself alongside it, but this is not the case with 24.04. The LTS version needs unencrypted Windows partition.
Can I just Suspend Bitlocker (not fully decrypt the partition) of my Windows 11 parition and install Ubuntu 24.04 alongside it?
The unattended-upgrades package automatically installs security updates on an Ubuntu Server system. By default, it's configured to not install normal feature/bugfix updates automatically. I have noticed that these normal updates can render WordPress websites unusable when installed automatically. They even introduce bugs sometimes. The normal updates should first be tested on a testing server, it's recommended. That is why they are disabled/ignored by default by unattended-upgrades, I suppose.
My question is: will Ubuntu automatically install security updates only from the PPA's I've added and leave the feature/bugfix updates from the PPA's aside for a moment where the system administrator manually runs apt upgrade (after testing)? How can I configure PPA's to behave this way? If the main system behaves this way, I think PPA's should behave the same. They should for sure install security updates automatically, but I think these are not installed automatically by default because the PPA is not added as a source to the 50unattended-upgrades config file. I think they should be added automatically to this file to have automatic security updates from the PPA's.
When adding a PPA to the 50unattended-upgrades sources manually to recieve security updates automatically, I will also recieve the normal feature/bugfix updates automatically I suppose. This means the packages from the PPA are always the bleeding edge, but the system packages are not the bleeding edge and fall behind. This could even introduce new bugs I suppose, because the PPA package would expect the system to be the bleeding edge as well, when it's not...
Is ubuntu well, or, at least, normally compatible with rhunderobot range 17 pro laptop? (GPU -nvidia rtx 4060 laptop), intel wifi, realtek audio, intel motherboard, cpu intel core i7 13620h)
Update, I'm not sure what happened, but minutes after posting this question, and after an additional update was done, the problem seemed to have "gone away"! I may consider closing this question if the problem is no longer replicable.
I'm currently using Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS.
Previously, and likely on a prior version of Ubuntu, I've linked a Google Drive account with Ubuntu via "Settings -> Online Accounts" and it had resulted in my Google Drive files being accessible through the Nautilus file browser of Ubuntu.
However, it recently stopped working despite the Google Drive name still showing up in the file browser. When it gets clicked on, it just stalls and ends up on the home folder.
I've tried removing the account and re-adding it, which was done without problems, but the Google Drive remains unaccessible.
Are there any additional details / steps missing to get it working? Ideally, I'd like it to work with just the built-in default Ubuntu stuff and avoid installing any additional 3rd-party apps.
Replaced Gnome with Enlightenment on 24.04, and got past the boot logo, even though it took a while where the throbber stopped spinning but my cursor was on screen, but this doesn't look anything like a desktop at all, so I shut it down.
Took a video and turned it into a gif with ffmpeg:
journalctl is reporting some red logs, when looking things up, feels like a similar report to this Bug 206225 - nouveau: Screen distortion and lockup on resume, given that I'm seeing well, distortion and the logs are mentioning nouveau, TRAP_MP_EXEC, and INVALID_OPCODE.
Maybe I also deleted the drivers for my NVIDIA GT 220 via apt autoremove?? Because I can't find any nvidia-driver entries in my installed packages. But neither can I install them via apt?
I have a 3TB Truecrypt partition on a 3,5'' portable USB hard drive. Currently, to mount the partition I have to
plug in the USB drive
run veracrypt
select the right volume
tick "truecrypt mode"
click "mount"
enter the Truecrypt passphrase
enter my user's password
double-click on the mounted volume, which opens a new Nautilus (Files) window showing my files.
I read somewhere that TCRYPT support (for TrueCrypt or VeraCrypt volumes) may be compiled into cryptsetup, the software that also handles LUKS volumes. So I wonder, why doesn't Ubuntu (25.10 in my case) automatically attempt to mount TC volumes? (mine is not hidden, just a regular old TC partition).
And, corollary, how can I setup my system so that it does offer to mount TC volumes? I'd like the workflow to be:
plug in the USB drive
I get prompted to enter the Truecrypt passphrase
Nautilus (Files) window opens with the contents
...i.e. exactly what happens with LUKS volumes.
Do I need to put something in /etc/fstab? Or write a script that does sudo cryptsetup --type tcrypt open /dev/sdX1 myvolume, make it executable and create a shortcut to it?
Hello askUbuntu community! I'm in the process of switching to Linux since I want to get away from Microslop. I have now tried for literally hours to get my 5.1 sound system (which works fine on windows) to work on Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS, reading many posts on here and on the wider web, with only superficial success so far. Here are the details:
I'm using a SoundBlaster Audigy FX v2 card, my sound system is connected via 3 x 3.5mm jacks. Ubuntu recognizes it, and I have set it as the default device in the system sound settings:
When I click "test", all six channels function correctly and I can hear the correct output through all six speakers. Same thing when doing a speaker-test in the console:
But everything other than the system settings test and the speaker-test only outputs a stereo signal. Can't get any other application to use all six channels. For instance, when I try to use VLC player to play an mp3 file, I get only stereo through the front left & right speakers. I get the same thing with sound output of Firefox. And since the system uses a subwoofer on a different channel, the front speakers are terribly feeble in the lower frequencies. In VLC, I tried both Pulseaudio and ALSA as output and activated "Force detection of Dolby Surround" as well as setting the ALSA output channels to 5.1.
Here are screenshots of my pavucontrol and alsamixer:
What really confuses me is that many other posts suggest editing /etc/pulse/daemon.conf, but that doesn't seem to exist on my system for some reason.
I tried creating it, but it doesn't seem to do anything and even disappears once I reboot the system. Since I'm new to Linux in general, the fact that the config file isn't even there makes me worry that I might have set it up wrong somehow. Other posts suggest setting the channel number in alsamixer to 6, but it doesn't even offer me that choice, as you can see in the screenshot.
Could anyone give me any other tips on what I might try next?
I tried installing the Android Debug Bridge on Ubuntu 24.04 via sudo apt install adb. The install was seemingly successful, but adb --version produced the following error:
adb: symbol lookup error: adb: undefined symbol: libusb_hotplug_register_callback.
From what I've seen on the web, I haven't found any cases quite like mine. This question seems possibly related, but not sure.
My libusb packages as shown by dpkg -l | grep libusb are:
ii libusb-1.0-0:amd64 2:1.0.27-1 amd64 userspace USB programming library
ii libusb-1.0-doc 2:1.0.27-1 all documentation for userspace USB programming
ii libusbmuxd6:amd64 2.0.2-4build3 amd64 USB multiplexor daemon for iPhone and iPod Touch devices - library
I tried combinations of installing libusb-1.0-0-dev and installing android-tools-adb with the same result.

The line libusb-1.0.so.0 => /opt/14.7/ISE_DS/ISE/lib/lin64/libusb-1.0.so.0 (0x000079d66fc00000) makes me think it has to do with an installation of Xilinx ISE where I followed this installation tutorial which manually modifies some symlinks for libstdc++.so. But I see nothing in that tutorial which might have to do with libusb.
I'm not sure how to interpret this. Did Xilinx ISE maybe bring its own version of libusb to which adb is being redirected because some symlinks were created during the ISE installation?
How can I proceed on fixing the "undefined symbol" error?
Edits in response to steeldriver's comments:
From what I can see, there's no LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable in my PATH. I'm not quite sure what you meant with "environment", I checked echo $PATH and my .bashrc file. But I found what should be the .xsetup for my platform and that contains LD_LIBRARY_PATH. It looks like this:
XLNX_DIR_NAME=$(cd `dirname $0` && pwd)
XLNX_LIB_PATH=${XLNX_DIR_NAME}
XLNX_LIB_PATH=`dirname ${XLNX_LIB_PATH}`
XLNX_LIB_PATH=`dirname ${XLNX_LIB_PATH}`
XLNX_LIB_PATH=${XLNX_LIB_PATH}/lib/lin64
if [ -n ${LD_LIBRARY_PATH} ]; then
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.:${XLNX_LIB_PATH}:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
else
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.:${XLNX_LIB_PATH}
fi
${XLNX_DIR_NAME}/_xsetup "$@"
The output of diff /etc/skel/.bashrc ~/.bashrc is:
source /opt/14.7/ISE_DS/settings64.sh
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-21-openjdk-amd64
. "$HOME/.cargo/env"
export PATH=$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH
(And the output of echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH is /opt/14.7/ISE_DS/ISE/lib/lin64:/opt/14.7/ISE_DS/EDK/lib/lin64:/opt/14.7/ISE_DS/common/lib/lin64.)

Im trying to install the IPTV program Hypnotix on Ubuntu 23.04. But i have not succeeded. I have googled around a bit and im starting to think the problem is that Ubuntu 23.04 is very new and for some reason doesnt support Hypnotix yet? Does anyone know what the problem might be? Best regards Ubuntu newcomer Emil
I have been trying for a while to connect my mouse and keyboard using barrier between Ubuntu and Windows.

A manual fsck solves the problem, but I need to know which partition got corrupted. Sometimes when I get the BusyBox, neither the reboot command nor the exit command works. (I suppose the exit command works, but we are still in the BusyBox because the file system errors persists). I need to turno ff or reboot to see which partition has the problem.
How to turn off or reboot when you get BusyBox (and reboot and exit commands have no effect)?

To do that(install SAS), the following steps were performed:
A. downloaded and installed virtualization software Oracle VirtualBox for Linux.
B. Created a folder named 'SASUniversityEdition' (no spaces) on /home, and another subfolder named 'myfolders' inside the folder 'SASUniversityEdition'.
C. Downloaded the SAS University Edition vApp.
D. Launched VirtualBox and select File > Import Appliance. In the Import Virtual Appliance window, clicked the folder icon to the right of the field. In the file browser window, selected the SAS University Edition .ova file, and clicked Open. Clicked Next. Then clicked Import in the Appliance Settings window. Shared the "myfolders" folder with VirtualBox.
E. In VirtualBox, selected the SAS University Edition vApp, and then selected Machine -> Settings. In the navigation pane, selected Shared Folders, and then clicked the Add Folder icon (+) in the upper right of the Settings window. In the Add Share window, selected Other as the folder path. In the file browser window, opened the SASUniversityEdition folder, and selected the myfolders subfolder that I created in step 1. Clicked Select Folder. Then clicked OK.
In the Add Share window, confirmed that Read-only is selected(actual instruction is: Confirm Read-only not selected). Selected the Auto-mount option, and clicked OK. Clicked OK again to close the Settings window.
F. In VirtualBox, selected the SAS University Edition vApp in the left column, and then click Start. In a web browser on my computer, entered http://localhost:10080 to open the SAS University Edition: Information Center From the SAS University Edition: Information Center, clicked Start SAS Studio.
Here's the link to the webpage where you can see those instructions I followed.
I used the SAS for some time but then the system started hanging, and as usual I force shutdown the system (long press-hold down the power button).
On switching on system, as usual, the selection screen appeared (Windows or Ubuntu). It is a dual boot system.
After selecting Ubuntu, the screen showed some error. I don't recall it entirely, but some of the error is this:
/dev/sda5: Inodes that were part of a corrupted orphan linked list found
acpi error thread cannot release mutex
fsck error on boot: /dev/sda5: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY
Then I performed the following operation:
fsck /dev/sda5 and entered Yes (y) to for each error. entered exit rebooted system
Now it will take me to the login page after I select Ubuntu at boot option, but after I login the following error message keeps scrolling:
systemd-journald[290]: Failed to rewrite entry(22 items, 735 bytes); ignoring: Read-only file system
systemd-journald[290]: Failed to rewrite entry(22 items, 746 bytes); ignoring: Read-only file system
I'm trying to clone Ubuntu 16.04 from USB stick (Sandisk 128GB installed with Ubuntu 16.04 - /sdc) to an external SSD (a brand new WD SN550 250GB - /sdd) on my Windows machine.
Following this tutorial, I made a Clonezilla USB, then boot to it, connect my Ubuntu USB (Sandisk - /sdc) and external SSD (WD - /sdd), choose source and target as Sandisk and WD respectively, then finish the clone. Then remove Ubuntu USB (Sandisk) and Clonezilla USB, then reboot.
Until now, my BIOS setup is EFI, but when I reboot, my WD SSD doesn't show up when I press F12. Also there's something different running in the background during cloning. Here are some outputs from screens, saying the boot loader on /dev/xxx is not grub skip running grub-install and some other strange stuff.

How do I fix it to boot to Ubuntu SSD? Should I have done something to the WD SSD prior of cloning?
My keyboard has a LockScreen key positioned where I often inadvertently hit it. I want to disable or remap that button.
I have looked in
/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/pc
and in
/usr/share/X11/xkb/keycodes/evdev
but don't see anything in either file that is clearly mapped to locking the display.
xev
spits out many lines that are immediately obscured by the lock screen, and then further obscured by all the input required to unlock the lock screen.
After comment from @UnKNOWn
xmodmap -pke | grep keycode and then from the list try to see anything related to lock? – UnKNOWn 53 mins ago
Looking at the xmodmap output from the lockkey press I notice Super_L NoSymbol Super_L map. Super_L is another key press to lock the screen.
From the spew of output I notice this :
KeyPress event, serial 38, synthetic NO, window 0x7a00001,
root 0x26e, subw 0x0, time 518379537, (580,793), root:(582,908),
state 0x0, keycode 133 (keysym 0xffeb, Super_L), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XFilterEvent returns: False
As if the special Lock key on this keyboard activates the process mapped to Super_L
what's going on?
I tried to upgrade my installation of Ubuntu 19.10 to 20.04 today. After restarting, it could not boot into kernel 5.4.0-29-generic, not even in recovery mode. I could no longer boot into 5.3.0-51-generic, but I could boot into its recovery mode.
This machine has a Threadripper 3990X, and I had trouble booting into 19.10 months ago when I first installed it. I forget what measures I had to take to get it working, but I remember it involved some boot parameters (I think mce=off), and the new GRUB entry has the same parameters.
I have an encrypted disk. When booting into 5.3.0-51-generic in recovery mode, it pauses to prompt me for the key to decrypt my disk, but when booting into 5.4.0-29-generic, it doesn't.
Here are the last messages that appear on my screen.

I encrypted the hard disk with LUKS.
When I boot the PC, the screen says: please unlock disk sda5_crypt.
Is it possible to return to this screen from the command-line? If the PC can return from the unlocked state, it is OK even if not from the command-line. Is restarting my PC the only way to fix this problem?
I executed the command $ lsblk -a and I paste the output.

I have a Synology NAS with a RAID 1 setup on which I recently accidentally deleted a shared folder with data I want back. I shut down the NAS and booted into a machine with an Ubuntu Live Cd and attached one of the NAS drives.
I made an image of the drive using DD and now have an oldhd.img file on an external drive.
I then moved to a new machine, booted up with the Live CD attached the external drive and changed to the external drive directory and ran this command
mount -r -o loop oldhd.img /mnt
Then I ran fdisk -l and saw the drive I need to be recovered was /dev/sdb
I changed dir to my computer's hard drive folder and ran:
extundelete /dev/sdb --restore-all
It returns :
extundelete - failed to read-only open device "/dev/sdb": Error code 2133571347
What am I doing wrong? And what should I do instead?
Suddenly after shutting down Ubuntu and when reopenning, I get prompted to one shell of BusyBox. I only had a set of options in help there.

- Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)

None of this is actually my external hard disk in which my Ubuntu 14.04 is installed.
How can I solve this?
I tried to install a samba server for active directory authentication and shares.
I managed to configure kerberos (kinit klist works)
I configured smb.conf.
wbinfo -u<br>
wbinfo -g<br>
getent group *showing all domain groups)<br>
getent users (showing all domain users)<br>
net join was successful
Modifing nsswitch and common-session did work as well.
I can log into the machine using AD credentials, locally and over ssh.
Even adding domain administrator group to sudoer worked.
So I assume the authentication is configured correctly.
I now wanted to create a share. One with [homes] and one with access for an AD group.
If I now connect to the share from a Windows 7 computer I get prompted user/password. If I enter the data from the initial local account that was created during the installation process, I see both shares, the public one and the home directory of the local user.
If I use the AD credentials, I only get access denied.
I even tried to enable guest access and deactivation any access control, but nothing changes. The local user can connect, but the AD user doesn't even get to see the shares.
If I enable logging level 10 I see that the computer is trying to authenticate, but fails.
What am I missing?
Update:
I found the problem. I don't really understand why that caused that effect, but now the share is working nearly as I want it to.
I did use:
idmap uid = 10000-20000<br>
idmap gid = 10000-20000
from the tutorial at http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Samba_Winbind I didn't think the warning, that these lines are deprecated will cause problems, as deprecation normally means still supported. That's true for local login, but shares get broken. I replaced these two lines with:
idmap config * : range = 10000-20000
and now the share is working.
The only problem left is in order to connect to the [homes] share I need to use COMPUTERNAME\USERNAME, but I wanted homes to work with DOMAIN\USERNAME?
If anyone knows how to change that it would appreciate it, but as I can just use a normal home share with username subdirectory, I don't consider that to be a real problem.
In iptables many times I see the target MASQUERADE. What is that? I searched and found lots of things. But I need someone to explain to me what MASQUERADE is in an easy to understand way?
An example (taken from this answer) is:
sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
I'm trying to create a Windows 7 KVM guest on Ubuntu 12.04 using virt-manager.
After filling in the various config options, when it goes to begin installation,I get an error box saying:
Unable to complete install: 'Unable to read from monitor: Connection reset by peer'
Further digging reveals log file in /var/log/libvirt/qemu/ indicating several compalaints:
Could not open option rom '/usr/share/qemu/vapic.bin': Permission denied
pci_add_option_rom: failed to find romfile "pxe-virtio.rom"
Could not read keymap file: 'en-us'
I don't understand what the problem with vapic.bin is - it is in the location specified and readable:
ls -la /usr/share/qemu/vapic.bin
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 9216 Feb 28 11:01 /usr/share/qemu/vapic.bin*
pxe-virtio.rom is also there:
ls -al /usr/share/qemu-linaro/pxe-virtio.rom
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 63488 Feb 10 2012 /usr/share/qemu-linaro/pxe-virtio.rom
ls -al /usr/share/qemu/pxe-virtio.rom
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 63488 Feb 10 2012 /usr/share/qemu/pxe-virtio.rom
I could use some help fixing the "permission denied" on vapic.bin, and some help
understanding where pxe-virtio.rom is expected to be found (assuming it must be expecting someplace other than /usr/share/qemu?), or how to configure that explicitly?

2013-05-07 06:27:37.413+0000: shutting down
I have a Sony Vaio sve15118fg running Ubuntu 12.10 which comes with an AMD Radeon HD 7650M graphics chip.
This was all working fine until some updates (note sure what they were) came through. After installing them my laptop now no longer boots properly, specifically:
fsck which ends up hanging (although the system still responds there is no HDD activity). This is remedied via Ctrl+Alt+Delete to restart the system.fsck manually from the root shell completes successfully.I have attempted numerous things including removing all propriety drivers, trying the two installed propriety drivers, installing the latest beta driver from AMD, etc.
These all yield various results, such as the same as above, or a gnome-fallback session, or a gnome-shell session with various flickers and graphical artifacts.
What the heck do I have to do to get this to work? I don't really game, especially in Ubuntu, so I just want a working system! I'm not fussed about 3d acceleration of whatever.
I am having some weired problem regarding mouse and keyboard. I am using a laptor with a external mouse. When i scroll my mouse it worked in reverse way. And when i am typing with my keyboard it stop working for few moment. If i typed two later repeatedly it missed to draw the 2nd letter. Backspace is not working properly either. It need 4 stock to remove a letter. Help please
I have a Windows XP and Ubuntu 10.10 dual boot. It was working fine, then suddenly while booting in GRUB if I select Ubuntu it shows me a stupid BusyBox error the same as this, and Windows XP is still working fine.
This is the error I'm getting:
