I am using a Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3 which has a backlit keyboard with two levels of brightness; however when I enable the keyboard light option it only enables the first level of brightness.
How do I enable Ubuntu to switch between the three levels of brightness (Off, Medium, High)?
I have freshly installed Ubuntu system where I mounted an external drive with NTFS filesystem, which worked just fine three days ago after I installed Ubuntu, but now when I plug it in and try to mount it, it says "Error mounting /dev/sdb1 at ...: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error.
How can it be that it worked after the installation but not now a few days later after nothing has changed on my installation or the drive? Another thread said that I need NTFS-3G but I didn't need this a few days ago and when I go tho the github-page I honestly don't really understand how to install it. I'm totally new to this whole linux thing so please answer in as simple terms as possible for somebody who just left Windows because Windows 11 has become unbearable.
New-ish 'full time' Ubuntu user here, with a new PC loaded with Ubuntu 24.04 as my daily driver.
AFAIK, the Gigabyte control center software only works in Windows.
(I also posted this on https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/, and https://www.reddit.com/r/Gigabyte, but zero response so far. Hoping that someone here will know something about something)
I am trying to find a way to have intake & exhaust fans spin up when 'any' temp sensor hits a certain temperature. The issue seems to be that in BIOS/UEFI, Fan Control, I can only select '1 input' source (e.g. CPU/other) at a time, to control either the intakes, the rear exhaust, the AIO pump / Fans.
Gigabyte controller does not seem to expose all sensors to Ubuntu 24.04, so I am unable to create profiles/rules with linux-friendly fan controllers. That leaves me with UEFI/BIOS settings.
AIO cooler pump and fans, are kind of okay being controlled by CPU temp, but not really ideal to tie the exhaust & intakes to CPU temp only.
Parts of my board/system 'get hot' independent of the CPU. PCH/VRM Mos/GPU/anything to do with data when one of the NVMe's is churning through a big DB.
I'd like to be able to use some kind of custom fan-control profile so that intake and rear exhaust spin up if any of the following gets hot:
'Hot Zone' (still can't figure out where this is on the X870e, that's just what I've called it).
But as it is, I have to assign in BIOS each fan curve profile, to one of the sensors. Which means that if I assign CPU temp to CPU, fans spin up when CPU gets hot, but not for GPU or VRM etc.
Only thing I can think of to cover all the bases, is having the intakes and rear exhaust at max all the time. But, annoying.
Just wondered if I'd missed anything, or if Gigabyte were considering exposing the temps for specific areas via the controller in a future update.
FA6dI have 32gb ram, but shotwell locks system up when importing huge number of photos. Kubuntu eventually kills shotwell, so import doesn't finish. I can't figure out how to get around this issue. I tried using unsupported newer version of shotwell, but errors come up saying repo blocked.
I'm trying digikam. I like it, but a huge number of photos are missing, and I can't see how to import them.
I have bought a new laptop (MSI Sword 16 HX B14V).
When I put the laptop to sleep / hibernate (I click on Suspend), most of the time, the fans do not stop (and they keep running infinitely).
What can I do ?

I have problems with the TP-Link UB500 Bluetooth USB adapter. Ubuntu can "see it", but asks me to confirm a code. Anyway it doesn't work.

I'm trying to get my pc dual booted with Windows and Ubuntu. I have both operating systems installed. However, I'm running into the issue that when I boot Windows from GRUB, it automatically goes into recovery mode (Ubuntu boots fine from GRUB). When I select to boot Windows in the BIOS, Windows boots normally without any issue.
I have tried adding custom entries to GRUB (including the one from the accepted answer in this post), but it still enters recovery mode. How do I solve this problem?
I have a network storage device on my network. I can access it from Windows computers, Android and another Ubuntu laptop with Ubuntu 25.10 on it. I have been through all the fixes for this, mostly Samba and firewall configs, but I still get what's shown on the attached screenshot. I am pretty sure there's a simple fix for this, but I am stumped now and do not know what to try next.

My 2 monitors are not waking up. Sometimes I see the login screen, I login, then both of them go off and never come back until I forcefully restart the computer, but sometimes I never see the login screen, they do the same thing right after opening the computer.
Sometimes pressing the power buttons of the monitors brings them back, but sometimes it doesn't.
I have a clue which I think is related. When the problem doesn't appear, I still get a brief black screen upon login. (I mean, Monitors are on -> I enter my password and login -> Monitors go off -> They come back after a few seconds)

Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS
I'm new to Linux, having switched to Ubuntu from Windows. I don't know how to share required info/logs, so please tell me. I like Ubuntu, but this problem annoys me.
I am looking for an extension compatible with GNOME 49 (Ubuntu) that can completely disable or hide the Quick Settings menu (the top-right bar containing Wifi, Bluetooth, and Power options) specifically when the screen is locked. Currently, even when the PC is locked, anyone can swipe down and toggle the Wifi or Bluetooth.... the(menu). I need to restrict this for privacy and security reasons. Most existing extensions like 'NoQuickSettings' or 'Privacy Menu' don't seem to support the new GNOME 49 architecture yet.
Does anyone have a solution, a working fork, or a script to achieve this?
I thought something felt off in my Hardware Info when I was writing this, but I couldn't pin down what until I looked at an older question with my info on it. Somehow and I don't know how, but I'd assume it's not helping (if it isn't the main cause for overheating all the sudden), my graphics have gone from listing "AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT" and "AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D" to only listing "Software Rendering". If anyone knows what could cause this and how to fix it, I would be grateful.
Nothing has changed much since I got my computer up and running for the semester. The only thing I can think of is that I let it run an update a day or so ago, but all of the sudden my computer is running so hot doing things like browsing the web and checking my Discord notifications that I can't use it for more than 30 minutes at a time without one of the sensors hitting an ALARM (HIGH) report when running sensors in the terminal.
Basic specs are below and the current temperature at the moment. Usually it would go to +70° C, but I've taken off one of the PC's side panels just to vent the heat. It's a small form factor computer, so I do expect it to get pretty hot, but never before for just regular day-to-day use. Help is much appreciated, as I'd like to not worry about it overheating and causing permanent damage while I'm in college.

I'm also unsure if it'd help, but here's a look at the System Monitor at the moment.
The CPU seems that it isn't be overloaded (I've had an issue with that before, but it appeared to be a power issue possibly, as moving and using a different plug made that problem disappear), with the most CPU usage being the Gnome Shell, so I'm unsure what's going on that's causing it to overheat.
I do believe I've managed to get the AMD graphics drivers working again from reinstalling them, as they show up in the settings again rather than "Software Rendering", however the overheating persists. Once the computer hits around 66° C it freezes and has to be shut down from the power button.

Seams to be a bug from VM Ware Workstation.
When i wait long enough - it goes one with installation.
Wish, i had known this before!
I messed up my hole Windows 10 Enterprise ! Because, i thought it must be an error of Win 10 !
I have a dashboard from Home Assistant and would like it to be shown as the desktop wallpaper/background using some web web browser (Firefox, Chromium) in kiosk mode.
How would I tell my Ubuntu 24.04/Wayland/Gnome to automatically start that browser upon user login and run it as desktop wallpaper?
I checked gnome dynamic wallpaper resources and found:
I remember years before Gnome came up it was possible to start application such that they would run in the root or desktop window - such as xearth, xroach and xsnow used to do.
I got a Dell Latitude 5450 (release year 2024), refurbished from ebay. AFAIK, these should be able to work. Ubuntu certifies 3 hardware configurations. Mine doesn't match exactly, but it has Intel Wi-Fi. In fact lspci shows all devices from Intel, except the NVME drive :-). CPU is Intel Core Ultra 5 125U.
I tried to set up dual-boot. I used ubuntu-24.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso.
After install, Ubuntu boots OK. But something went wrong. To start with, the GRUB boot menu did not list Windows.
I add Windows to the GRUB boot menu. Running update-grub does not add Windows, despite os-prober being installed. This part is expected: on an existing system, os-prober does not enable itself. So I edit /etc/default/grub, remove the # in front of the line GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false. I run update-grub, and now I have an entry for Windows Boot Manager. On to the next problem.
Windows BitLocker gets anxious, and asks for Bitlocker recovery key. I saved the recovery key properly, so this is fine. I reboot to check Windows is happy now. But something went wrong. Now my laptop boots straight into Windows, instead of GRUB boot menu.
I can revert this. Boot back into the Ubuntu installer / live USB, and reinstall grub manually. mount /dev/nvme0n1p8 /mnt; for fs in dev proc sys; do mount --rbind /$dev /mnt/$dev; done; chroot /mnt; mount -a; grub-install. But it just gets me back to the same place. Ubuntu boots. Windows boots from GRUB. After booting Windows from GRUB, the laptop doesn't boot to GRUB; it boots to Windows.
I can get the Dell UEFI boot menu instead. Just hit F12 before it boots Windows or GRUB. It runs in graphics mode, not text-console mode like GRUB. There is a "Ubuntu" boot option I can select. But it stays in the Dell UEFI graphics, and it shows a "Not found" error box. (Or maybe sometimes it boots straight into into a "Dell SupportAssist On-board Diagnostics"? But it doesn't boot GRUB).
It's not a Secure Boot error. The system arrived with Secure Boot turned off. I have also tried turning Secure Boot on, rebooting, and turning Secure Boot back off again :-).
I think it's very unlikely that Windows deletes the EFI/Ubuntu directory from the EFI System Partition (ESP). Especially, because I had to create a second ESP specifically for Ubuntu! The original ESP was 100MB, with only 3MB free. My first install attempt had failed, with the error messages showing no free space on /boot/efi. (I removed the partial EFI/Ubuntu directory. After a "successful" install, I also had to manually remove the original ESP from /etc/fstab, because the installer had added both ESPs, and the old ESP was taking priority for the mount point /boot/efi).
What is the problem?
If there's a solution, the Ubuntu is unused and can be re-installed. But if I have to sort out a fresh install of Windows, that would be slightly more annoying for me.
After reboot, snapstore shows a notification, that a software update has been successfully installed ("Prometheus"). When I open snap-store it shows the update with a warning, that the system cant be used while updating (see screenshot). I do not know what "Prometheus" actually is, whether I do need it, and why the update information keeps showing up.
I have an ubuntu 24.04 (desktop - no server).
I appreciate any hints. Thanks

I'm running Ubuntu 22.04 and after a recent Thunderbird upgrade to version 115.3 I am now seeing small round icons with a count of unread messages next to each message folder. See image below:
I want to disable this "feature" because I find it annoying. I haven't found anything in the Thunderbird settings that affects this behavior.
Note: This has nothing to do with the "Folder Pane Options" and the "Show Total Message Count" option.
Where is the setting to disable this?
Thank you.

I installed Windows 11 on my Mac (M1) using Parallels, and on the windows machine I tried installing the Ubuntu subsystem to run Docker, so I downloaded Ubuntu (Ubuntu2004-220404) and installed it. However, I received the following error message:

So I tried to install Oracle 19c database on my Ubuntu 20.04 (as in my pc, not a virtual machine or anything, my OS is Ubuntu itself)
I downloaded the .rpm file instead of the zip (there was no deb file for it) which was by mistake really I used alien for converting the .rpm file to .deb which took really long, like at least 10-15 minutes also lot's of warning were there Especially this one multiple lines
warning: ras.rpm: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 signature: NOKEY
After the whole thing was over I installed it
It took some more time as well And it showed some warnings as well
The installation was complete
After that and after looking for ways to set it up I tried to run this "runInstaller" which starts the GUI installation But it doesn't go any further than the first step Just shows the error
[INS-32042] The Installer has detected that the user (oracle) is not member of the central inventory group: oracle
There's a uninstaller file too but it says it won't run as root and when I run from home directory it says it won't run coz it needs to be run from the "Oracle home user" which installed it

I'm running Ubuntu 16.10 with Qt4.8.7 and I'd like to install Qt5 in order to compile a package. I installed qt5-qmake from the repo, and set the default to qt5:
export QT_SELECT=qt5
./configure && make
...fatal error: QtCore/QTextCodec: No such file or directory
So the package wouldn't compile, apparently because of an include statement:
include "<"QtCore/QtGlobal
for which I think I need the development environment. First, I tried to install it from the Qt site, by downloading qt-opensource-linux-x64-5.6.1.run, then I tried to install qtbase5-dev from Synaptic.

It seems odd that the main repo version of Qt 5.6.1 requires different libraries to the other packages.
It looks like I need to downgrade these libraries from 7.2 to to 6.4. Can I do this safely, and install Qt 5.6.1? Or is there a better way to fix the problem?

I eventually sorted this out by using Synaptic to force the qtbase5-dev dependencies to the previous (Yakkety-upgrades or Yakkety) versions.
This left the libmir files. Manually installing them failed, but shows the problematic dependencies. Repeating for the dependencies and working down through them eventually led to one or two files which needed to be downgraded.
Forcing that via Synaptic also removed a host of basic Yakkety applications; it's a pity I couldn't find a way to downgrade them in parallel, keeping a consistent system, but in the end I let them go, installed Qt5, and manually reinstalled the missing packages by using Synaptic's Status 'Not installed (residual config)' section to identify and reinstall them.

I it that my system already routes alsa to pulseaudio? And that I only need to route from pulseaudio to jack?
I have a new HP Envy laptop (AMD A10 processor, Radeon R6, 8GB RAM, 2TB HD) with Windows 10. I don't want to use Windows as the main OS, and I want to use Ubuntu (my previous laptop was Ubuntu, and in total I have a number of Ubuntu systems).
I was able to set up the dual boot with Ubuntu 16.04. Sadly, when it loads, it hangs. I have tried live CDs of Ubuntu 12.04.5 and Fedora, but all have the same issue. I can't install Ubuntu first, as I suspect that it may not load, and then I could not install Windows as a dual boot, as I only have the backup / system recovery. What is awry that the live CDs won't work at all?
I tried to install Ubuntu to my Toshiba Satellite from a created disk. After setting partitions, the installation took an extreme amount of time and then shut down. I now cannot boot any operating system. A black screen with a cursor in the left upper corner is the only thing that comes up. I can reach the BIOS screen only by pressing the F2 key at startup.
I have tried a restore with original restore disks, but nothing is recognized. I have tried to boot Ubuntu from a disk, but nothing is recognized, so nothing boots from my CD drive. What else can I do? Is there a way to wipe the computer clean and simply fresh install Ubuntu? No other function key works during startup except for F2 to access the BIOS.
I am looking for a way to normalize the sound in MANY MP3 files I have. Some have low sound, while others are louder so I have to turn the volume up or down depending on the song. What ways are there to do this for all files. I specially would like to do it via the terminal but GUI ways are also accepted.
