My dad has been using Ubuntu for many years. Recently when he starts his computer he is asked for a password to log in. Now the password screen seems to be on a loop...Any advice? I've never encountered this before.
Anyone got working Space bar to preview files in Ubuntu 26.04? Gnome-sushi is installed but not working for me.
Do I need to configure anything for Ubuntu 26.04
I am running chromium [Version 147.0.7727.116 (Official Build) snap (64-bit)] on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. The browser works quite well, but i get random 'text boxes' or similar structures when I am using the mouse they 'open' when I move the mouse but disappear moments later.. Is this a known fault - and can I fix it? I have tried xinput list - which gives me 6 entries - how do I know which one to delete?
I'm on Ubuntu 24.04, I have installed rhvoice and speech-dispatcher, and this works fine from the command line.
My use case is that, as a writer, I want to be able to get the machine to read my text aloud to help check it. I used to use an online service but it's really expensive. I don't need Orca because I am not visually impaired and it would be overkill.
I write with Scrivener on WINE, so that's not going to integrate easily. I have tried getting LibreOffice to talk using the Read-Text extension but that's not working either (I have queried that on the LO forums because it's doing something truly weird).
My ideal would be being able to slap the text (a chapter at a time) into a text editor (for example) and have it read back (pausing would be great but a paragraph at a time would be acceptable).
So does anyone have any idea what I could use? Am I going the wrong way using speech-dispatcher even though standard APIs are good, right?
The speech output doesn't need to sound natural, in some ways it's better if it isn't for my purposes.
In the dock there are 3 links to the drives I have on my system. I only have Ubuntu installed. 2 of the drives are for EFI I believe. The other is the my Windows hard drive (I'm running Ubuntu from an external SSD).
I've looked up and know I can hide from the dock.
My question is why are they there in the first place?
The Windows drive - I can't click and do anything it seems. (It's Windows 11.)
EFI drives: these need to be there and are essential system files - why have them be openly available on the dock??
Just wondering.
The issue happens after a while of running ubuntu (Budgie), maybe after some suspend - waking up. Today it happened after about 5 minutes of using the firefox after waking up from suspend. Using the firefox suddenly becomes laggy, and I know I have only like 1 or 2 minutes before everything freezes and I have to do a hard reboot. Checking in with system monitor, it turns out that ram (8GB) is between 90% and 100% full and swap (4GB) over 50%. Shutting down all apps - especially the firefox - buys some time, but interestingly ram usage stays high even after all non-system tasks are shut down. It even increases towards 100% usage, at which point I reboot to avoid the complete freeze + hard reboot. Processor is far from maximum capacity so i figure the problem must be the ram management or possibly an issue with an application. Any advice appreciated :-)
Apps I had running when suspending & waking up and I had closed all before rebooting: firefox, steam, g-notepad, evince pdf reader, dropbox, nextcloud.

Under Ubuntu 24.04, after update from kernel 6.17.0-20 to kernel 6.17.0-22, ma session switch from X11 to wayland and my keyboard switch from french bepo to qwerty !
I first run
setxkbmap fr bepo
# that returns
WARNING: Running setxkbmap against an Xwayland server
Searches returns me : https://forum.garudalinux.org/t/keyboard-settings-problem-on-wayfire-wayland-solved/10802/14
but it is with wayfire, I installed it, defined ~/config/wayfire.ini, without success.
I also run
sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
that find my Typematrix keyboard and purpose french… but it doesn't change anything, always in qwerty
After switched back yesterday on kernel 6.17.0-20, I set back to xorg at login today on kernel…-23 and have my french bepo comes back !
But I'm surprised to didn't find any solution to configure keyboard under wayland… are there only english people who use wayland ?
Every time I do a dist-upgrade all my PPAs get disabled (probably fair enough) but then I have to go and review them all later. Herein lies my gripe.
I'm looking at a directory full of .sources and .list files, a bunch of which have been "backed up" with .disabled or .save extensions.
I want to take a look in these and go to the relevant PPA on the web to see if there's a build available for the new release.
How to I translate from that ppa. url to a launchpad.net url?
It always seems to take me ages to sort this stuff out.
Some examples:
PPA is at https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/andreasbutti/xournalpp-master/ubuntu But https://launchpad.net/~andreasbutti exists, and i eventually get to https://launchpad.net/~xournalpp++/+archive/ubuntu/git-ppa
PPA is at https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/phoerious/keepassxc/ubuntu But https://launchpad.net/~phoerious/+archive/ubuntu/keepassxc has the web page.
PPA is at https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/yubico/stable/ubuntu But https://launchpad.net/~yubico/+archive/ubuntu/stable has the web page.
So Ubuntu 26.04 is out and it promises to come with all the Nvidia drivers, cuda and pytorch all out of one distribution. Great! For the last 7 or more years I’ve used lambda labs, I’d like to remove that dependency.
So I install ubuntu-26.04-live-server-amd64.iso and select non-free drivers. Once that is up and running apt install cuda-toolkit nvidia-cuda-toolkit python3-torch nvidia-utils-595-server and great, nvidia-smi can see my GPUs. But pytorch can’t see my GPUs:
tonyr@ml0:~$ python3
Python 3.14.4 (main, Apr 8 2026, 04:02:31) [GCC 15.2.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import torch
>>> torch.cuda.is_available()
False
Does anyone know what I am missing?
i installed ubuntu a month or so ago, and its been running worse than windows. nothing i have done has been able to fix this, ive been trying for over 10 hours atealst. i recently saw my software updater has new stuff to download, but the connection keeps failing. i then try putting in:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
but im met with: Could not connect to ppa.launchpadcontent.net:443 (185.125.190.80). - connect (111: Connection refused)
please for the love of all that is holy can someone help me. i have been trying for so long to fix this.
After updating to 26.04, I can not switch power modes in the Quick Settings. Well, it did work ONE time, when setting to "Performance" but after that, I could not switch to "Balanced" or "Power Saver" and trying to set Power mode in Settings is the same thing.
running
sudo powerprofilesctl set balanced
works as a workaround but this does not fix the issue in Quick Settings.
This worked fine in 25.10. Is this permanently fixable?
sudo apt update

My Galaxy Book2 Pro 5G's speakers were working, but after restarting the computer, the sound disappeared again. So I tried running some code, and the sound came back.
(sudo apt install -y alsa-tools
wget https://github.com/joshuagrisham/galaxy-book2-pro-linux/raw/main/sound/necessary-verbs.sh
chmod +x necessary-verbs.sh
sudo ./necessary-verbs.sh)
Is there a way to automatically execute this code at boot? Please advise!
and hoping a good day to anyone reading this.
I recently installed Kubuntu on my 2019 MacBook Air, because macOS became very slow and it used to heat up very quickly, even if I ran like 3 tabs lol.
And after I installed Kubuntu, I never knew this laptop was this fast.
But now i have a problem. Whenever the laptop goes to sleep, like when I close the lid or put it into sleep mode manually, it goes to sleep just fine. But when I try to start it up again by opening the lid or pressing the buttons, the wake-up time is really long, like 20-40 seconds.
Is there any solution for this?
I have 2 servers (both 20.04) and one desktop (25.10).
One server has lost the ability to resolve internet hostnames (even after rebooting). It can ping internet ip addresses fine, it just can't resolve the hostnames. It can also resolve .local hostnames thru mDNS. I'm not sure when it happened because I don't check on it as often as I should.
The problem server is only used as a storage server and has samba installed. The working server does similar duty and also has samba installed. I have the shared drives on the problem server mounted on the other 2 machines and didn't even notice there was an issue until I went to do some cleanup and tried installing a tool via apt.
The major difference I see is that resolv.conf on the working machines looks like this:
nameserver 127.0.0.53
options edns0 trust-ad
search mynetworksettings.com
And on the problem server it looks like this:
nameserver 127.0.0.53
All the machines use systemd-resolved and none of them have any options set in resolved.conf (all the lines in all the files start with #).
additionally dig is returning SERVFAIL on the problem server.
Is there some sort of startup process that sets those options? Could that be failing on the problem server somehow?
Adding a fallback server of 8.8.8.8 allows me to resolve internet domain names. I'd still like to understand why this wasn't working or how it got broken.
Happy to provide additional info on request.
I want to run a command and have it only run on either the P or E cores in my Intel laptops. I know about taskset but it only accepts core numbers and I want to specify ALL of the P-Core CPUs / E-Core CPUs / LPE-Core CPUs without remembering which numbers they are across laptops. I want to automate this into a script that works on all my intel machines.
Let me preface this by saying I am new to Linux, only been learning it for a couple of weeks and just did a full install yesterday. Thanks in advance for all the help!
Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. Closing the laptop lid leads to keyboard and mousepad not working.
From a 6 month old post of someone having the same issue, I found the suggestion that the current hibernation mode may interfere with the drivers of the keyboard, and that it can be switched.
I used the information cited in this article to run in terminal:
cat /sys/power/mem_sleep
s2idle [deep]
Since it returned deep as enabled I tried running
sudo echo s2idle > /sys/power/mem_sleep
Terminal returned a permission denied error. After some further research II found this blogpost, and ran as advised
echo 's2idle'| sudo tee /sys/power/mem_sleep
Piping the sudo and tee command seemed to do the trick. I opened the mem_sleep file from the GUI and indeed it displayed
[s2idle] deep
After rebooting, closing and opening the lid of the laptop, hooray! Keyboard was recognized, except! now Ubuntu randomly goes into sleep mode by itself, and of course when it does that the keyboard is no longer recognized. I reverted the changes to the mem_sleep file from a backup, and the pc now behaves as before, so I am left to where I started. The next step I found is this thread which suggests editing Grub, but this is where I start fearing I will break my OS and I'd rather not have to reinstall everything from the beginning. Any help is appreciated!
The TOR applications will not load videos from some web sites. I receive a No video with supported format and MIME type found.
I downloaded from about:support the data sheet from both Linux Mint and Ubuntu. There is a significant difference between the Firefox files. It is my understanding that Ubuntu and Mint change the Firefox App to suit their requirements. I am not a programmer and don't know how these changes effected the TOR App.
Note that the web sites that do not load properly with TOR on Ubuntu do load properly running TOR under Brave. Also used the TOR app on Linux Mint (on this device) and it functions normally. I checked the different web sites and other OS's (on this machine) and various TOR apps. Each one of them works properly on Mint & Ubuntu (except TOR on Ubuntu.)
Bottom line is TOR on the Ubuntu OS does not work properly and it has to be the code that was changed in Firefox. I tried to set up an account on Ubuntu One for days and nothing goes through. Anyone know of another way to contact Ubuntu? According to Ubuntu they were back up and running yesterday.
Thanks for any response. Dennis
I recently installed Ubuntu 26.04 and I noticed that the thumbnails for my comics aren't showing in the Files file manager. I tried installing different thumbnailers, but nothing seems to work. Instead it just shows the default Ubuntu document icons.
I do not have Evince or mcomix installed. I'm using the default document reader that comes with Ubuntu 26.04.
I want to upgrade my desktop pc - currently running ubuntu 24.04 - to the latest version 26.04. I created a bootable usb drive with the latest iso image. When booting into the USB disk, I get the following error: spi-nor spi0.0: probe NovaCore unsupported chipset: boot 42 = 0x124a1002 (architecture 0x12, implementation 0x4). The installation stalls.

4) reboot your computer
Note: Root privilege is required in step 2 and 3
Following the instructions from technical support I got the system to recognize the reader and the inserted ID card, but I do not get the interface required for really using the reader for identification on line. What should I do?
I can't do much on busybox / initramfs because listing the partions / blocks returns nothing (I tested the ls /dev/sd* /dev/nvme* /dev/vd* 2>/dev/null I saw from this post
Same ending when starting on kernel 6.17.0-23-generic in recovery mode. Happily, kernel 6.17.0-22-generic still works (this is what I am currently using to write this post)
Can someone help me ?
What I did before getting this error : (I think) I was able to work on kernel 6.17.0-23-generic at least one time. But got some troubles to have my laptop HDMI output working. However, the HDMI on my USBC hub was working. So I decided to change the driver from X.org to NVIDIA driver 595-open. Reboot was needed, and since, I have this error message. Using older kernel 6.17.0-22-generic, I switched back to Xorg, but does not solved my initramfs alert.
I booted to my windows boot, to perform some update (included a lot of DELL bios updates) after getting this error. Still did not magically solved my error.

6.17.0-23-generic during initramfssudo is not found so running only fsck -f /dev/nvme0n1p7.
It returns :
fsck from util-linux 2.39.3
fsck: error 2 (No such file or directory) while executingfsck.ext2 for /dev/nvme0n1p7
It returns the same after calling exit once on initramfs (and getting the error message on the picture of orginal post) and recalling fsck -f /dev/nvme0n1p7.
Suspend/hibernate not working - no usable answers were provided, the only proposed solution does not work.
This is NOT a duplicate of "Computer does not resume from suspend". The computer does not sleep or suspend at all and answers in this thread are not relevant. The question I had asked before had no functional solutions.
This is NOT a duplicate of 24.04 doesn't sleep as that has an "answer" that I cannot downvote or delete as the "answer" doesn't work.
I have a brand new Lenovo ThinkBook 16 G8 IRL running Ubuntu 24.04.3. The computer has 32gb of RAM and 2 physical SSDs, one for a Win11 installation and the other for a fresh Ubuntu installation.
Sleep/Suspend works perfectly in the W11 environment, but not in Ubuntu. I have tested using Ubuntu versions 18 to 24, Mint Cinamonn 22 and Pop!_OS 22 and 24. They have all exhibited the same behavior.
The screen goes black, it looks like the machine tries to sleep, but then wakes up again within 5 seconds. This makes it impossible to use as a true laptop as I have to save all work and shut down the computer whenever I will travel with it - which is quite often.
This is not a problem of the computer not restarting or restoring from suspend, the computer does not enter suspend in the first place.
I agree the suspend command should work out of the box, so I'm not understanding this. I ran the below command and had the same effect - black screen for 3-5 seconds, then back to a login screen.
Swap is on and has plenty of space (32gb of RAM)
I have followed several recommendations and followed several directions.
There are no external devices plugged in
I have attempted to disable USB devices, use Gnome Tweaks to enable suspend, changed USB wake properties, but I had no luck.
Updates: Computer updated to 24.04.4 New dmesg added at the end Kernel updated to 6.17.0-20-generic
UPDATE: I noticed that the file /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume does not exist. In fact, the conf.d folder is empty.
Latest update following Daniel T's directions to enter suspend via sudo in terminal - note the computer exhibited the same behavior: the screen went black for a couple of seconds then just turned back on.

Rewrite: I've noticed something REALLY weird with my Ubuntu (now Kubuntu) 24.04 laptop. For some reason, when I play different quickly in succession, or just have the thing on for a longer time (which is what I usually do) the sound goes out. If I open any app at all when I can't hear, I DO get a small click... but nothing else. Sometimes the headphones jack works... and sometimes it doesn't. If I run sound-test when I can hear it... but only if I could hear sound beforehand. I also can get around it by rebooting, but I do have to save everything first and it takes pretty long to do so. At the time of this rewrite, it's been 2 months since this started. Though I'm not sure if this is related to the version because on a previous 25.10 install still had this issue. If this helps, I'm on a Jumper Ezbook S7 Hi, and my BIOS or UEFI (not exactly sure which) was apparently installed in 2024.
Original question: Every single time I open up Ubuntu, the same thing happens. No sound. If I reboot, I get sound for a while then silence. I've installed 24.04 only a day ago and this just keeps happening. Also if I open settings, I get a little bit of sound before more silence. (on a EZ book S7 Hi) Edit: If I put a headphone jack in, even when there's no headphones attached, sound plays.
I have a new installation of Ubuntu 22.04, and switched to LXQt using apt install task-lxqt-desktop. Now my 4K screen shows huge text for the LXQt applications (Qt applications?). I want the text to be similar in pixel size as the other applications like Firefox and the window titles.
What do I need to change to have them rendered similar to the firefox text?
(left == bad, right == good :) )
Changing DPI setting did not have any visible effect; changing QT_SCALE_FACTOR to 2 made it worse, and 0.5 broke my UI :) - note to self: don't go below 1.0).
Recently I installed Ubuntu 24.04. It was working well, but suddenly the terminal is not opening. Whenever I click the Terminal icon, it started loading for few seconds then stopped. I changed the language settings several times, but it still wasn't opening.
It shows like this.
sami@Phone-LP:~/Documents/Odding/CeeSS$ gnome-terminal
bash: /usr/bin/gnome-terminal: cannot execute: required file not found
When pressing ALT Key alone some windows close. First it shows the menu bar, like it should when ALT key is pressed, followed by window closing. This goes away if I reboot or even log out and log in. It is also random. Problem is not found on all window. Any suggestions as to what the problem could be? I check keyboard mapping for custom shortcuts, but none found.

I installed 17.10 recently and went to change the graphics from the Nvidia card to the Intel card to save battery. After switching the Prime setting to use the Intel card, I can no longer open X server settings. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the program, but still nothing happens when I go to open it. Is this just an issue with 17.10 that will be fixed in later releases, like the upcoming 18.04?
I have many Virtual box machines in my Ubuntu12.04, each time i shutdown or reboot i have to start them one by one.
