I am trying to run a Windows 10 VM through VirtualBox. When I try to run it, I get an error message telling me the kernel driver is not set up or installed, and to run modprobe vboxdrv as root. Doing so gives me an error message saying that

'vboxdrv' could not be inserted because the key was rejected by the service.

Unfortunately, I can't seem to find any info on how to sign the keys on Ubuntu 26.04, so any help is appreciated.

The VM starts and runs just fine if I disable Secure Boot, but I'm not proficient enough with computers to know if leaving that off is safe for my system.

I downloaded bootable ubuntu for my hp prodesk 600 g3. However, it doesn't load. It keeps getting stuck during package get 5. Can someone please let me know which version will work with my mini pc? I am not installing ubuntu, I'm using it to install Home Assistant on bare drive.

I have a Dell Latitude X200 Model PP03S.

It is currently running Ubuntu 2.6.38-8-generic. Is there a download available that I can use to boot from USB?

I tried to update my UEFICA and it says I don't have permission. I have tried a bunch of things I saw online but im not a computer guy like that. Please someone help I think it's slowing my pc down

I have an HP Victus 15-fb3xxx (Ryzen 7 7445HS, RTX 3050 laptop, BIOS F.14) running Ubuntu 26.04 (kernel 7.0.0-27-generic). The system freezes completely (hard freeze, requires forced shutdown) consistently when booting with the charger connected, even without any heavy workload. In journalctl -b -1 -p err from the boot right before the freeze, I consistently see this:

kernel: No irq handler for 1.55 kernel: No irq handler for 2.55 [...] kernel: ACPI BIOS Error (bug): AE_AML_BUFFER_LIMIT, Index (0x000000032) is beyond end of object (length 0x32) (20251212/exoparg2-393) kernel: ACPI Error: Aborting method _SB.WMID.WQBZ due to previous error (AE_AML_BUFFER_LIMIT) (20251212/psparse-529) kernel: ACPI Error: Aborting method _SB.WMID.WQBE due to previous error (AE_AML_BUFFER_LIMIT) (20251212/psparse-529)

WQBZ/WQBE appear to be HP-proprietary WMI methods related to temperature/power-mode reporting (also queried by the NVIDIA driver via PlatformRequestHandler, which in a separate log reports failed to get target temp from SBIOS). I've already ruled out the WiFi driver (RTL8852BE-VT, rtw89_8852bte module) as the cause of this specific freeze — it had a separate, unrelated power-save-mode bug that I already fixed with rtw89_core.disable_ps_mode=1 via GRUB, and it no longer shows up in recent logs. Concrete questions:

Has anyone with an HP laptop (Victus, Omen, or similar) seen this exact AE_AML_BUFFER_LIMIT error on the WQBZ/WQBE methods, and correlated it with freezes specifically when the charger is connected/detected? Is there a kernel parameter or a way to blacklist the hp_wmi module that mitigates this without losing critical functionality (fan control, function keys)? Has HP fixed this ACPI table bug in any BIOS version newer than F.14 for this laptop line?

Happy to attach a full acpidump if that helps diagnose it further.

~~I've set up my IP and Gateway but can't ping my router or get to the internet.~~

Having used Xenix, Unix and Linux for many years, why is it harder now?

My screen resolution has defaulted to 800 x 600 after an update and I cannot change it. I have a Nvidia 3060 GPU. Can someone help please?

i installed ubuntu 24.4.04 on my lenovo yoga 7a and it doesn't recognize the touchscreen. the only thing that happens when i flip the screen is that the physical keypad isn't working anymore I couldn't find anything on this device + my ubuntu version:/

My random cheap USB mouse (cabled not Bluetooth) stops working for a second or two when I flick too much. It doesn't seem to be due to load because it happens even right after boot.

I've been using Ubuntu 24.04 for some time, but it didn't have this issue until now.

It gives errors like this when using dmesg.

[   33.495875] usb 1-2: reset low-speed USB device number 2 using xhci_hcd
[   42.341612] usb 1-2: reset low-speed USB device number 2 using xhci_hcd

I tried:

• Disabling autosuspend

• Cleaning the mouse

• Switching to Wayland and back

• Switching USB ports

• Lowering polling rate

Does anyone has idea on how to fix it, or should I just reinstall Ubuntu and switch to Ubuntu 26.04 while I'm at it?

How do increase Bash argument buffer size? I do want to pass 2 million files in a directory as a file and I'm getting the `too many arguments' error:

So, I'm looking at starting to transition over to a linux system on my MacBook Air which uses an M3 chip. On the hard drive of the computer I have more than 20 GB left of storage, and I've heard Linux is pretty lightweight so dual booting is actually more feasible than, say, macOS+Windows. Is it possible to install Ubuntu without affecting anything on my macOS disk, so that the only difference is that at power-on I get a choice between macOS and Ubuntu and if I choose macOS it would be exactly the same as it is right now? How do I do that? (For context, I currently have Sonoma 14.3 installed).

Is a better option to download Ubuntu on a different hard drive or USB stick and run it from there so I don't have to deal with partitioning?

This a physical system running Ubuntu 26.04 Desktop (GNOME/Wayland). It has been regularly upgraded every six months through every Ubuntu Desktop release from 18.10 to 26.04. I also have a similar Ubuntu Desktop virtual machine running in VirtualBox with a similar configuration, and it exhibits the same behavior.

This does not appear to be caused by a user-specific configuration, as I reproduced the problem with a newly created user account. Finally, I also tested in a live Ubuntu 26.04 session by booting a VirtualBox virtual machine from the Ubuntu 26.04 ISO image, and the problem persists.

I do not remember exactly when the problem started, but I strongly suspect it is related to the transition from X.Org to Wayland, which occurred several non-LTS releases ago.

I have tested many Qt applications (krename, notepadqq, one custom of my own, etc.). Under Wayland, all Qt application windows and dialogs are rendered without the expected window borders or drop shadows. As a result, they blend into the background and are difficult to distinguish. In contrast, GNOME/GTK applications have the expected window borders and shadows and stand out clearly from the background.

If I set the QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb environment variable before starting a Qt application, the windows are displayed as expected, with the same borders and shadows as GTK applications.

The screenshot below shows krename started as

$ krename &

on the left, and

$ QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb krename &

on the right.

Is this a known bug? Is there something that can be done on top of the default system installation or configuration that will solve this problem?

I recently updated by ubuntu desktop PC from 24.04 LTS to 26.04 LTS. I have a dual monitor setup, primary screen in landscape and secondary screen in portrait orientation. After turning on the PC, on the login screen, the user selection and password entry page appears on my secondary screen (which is in portrait orientation) in a landscape orientation. I could handle it if the login screen was on the secondary (portrait) monitor in portrait orientation, but this is too much. Ideally, I have my login screen on my primary monitor in a landscape orientation. I had the same exact issue on 24.04, and I don't remember how I managed to fix it, but I did, and I can't figure it out now. I'm running Wayland across the board.

System info:

• Framework 13 AMD (Ryzen), Wayland session (GNOME on Ubuntu 26.04 "resolute")
• Fresh Ubuntu install, ~1 week old
• Issue previously occurred on Ubuntu 24.04 on the same laptop and was "fixed" only by a full OS reinstall — it has now returned identically on the fresh install

Symptoms:

• Icons in the GNOME app grid duplicate themselves repeatedly (seen 20-40+ copies of the same app)
• Confirmed NOT caused by duplicate .desktop files on disk — checked both ~/.local/share/applications/ and /usr/share/applications/, only one file exists per affected app
• Happens specifically after (re)installing/launching certain apps — most recently reproduced by installing Steam via the official .deb (steam-installer package), which caused ~24 duplicate Steam icons to appear immediately after first launch
• Previous occurrence (on the old install) affected a custom GNOME extension I built, plus two other apps installed via .desktop files in ~/.local/share/applications/

What I've tried:

• Confirmed dpkg --print-foreign-architectures / apt install completed with no errors
• Checked for duplicate .desktop files (none found)
• About to try: dconf reset -f /org/gnome/shell/app-picker-layout (have not yet confirmed if this fixes it or just temporarily clears it)

Question: Is there a known root cause for org/gnome/shell/app-picker-layout duplicating entries on re-registration of an app, rather than just deduplicating? And is there a way to prevent this from recurring, since a full OS wipe did NOT permanently fix it (it returned after restoring my home folder from backup) — I suspect the corrupted dconf database itself got carried over in the restore rather than being regenerated fresh. Is app-picker-layout stored anywhere outside ~/.config/dconf/user that I should be excluding from backups?

Any pointers to the relevant GNOME Shell bug tracker issue (if this is already known) would also help.

I have been running Ubuntu 24.04 for about a year on my laptop and connections to several wifi hotspots are saved under the network settings applet. I just tried installing an additional SSD and now the system prompts me for passwords when I try to connect to any of my wifi hotspots which were already save earlier.

Possibly relevant...

1. I have not yet tried to mount or formatted the new SSD.

2. I noticed that after just plugging in the new SSD and booting up / is now pointing to the new SSD.

3. When I unplug the new drive and bootup, the wifi works fine without prompting for the credentials and I can find the credentials under /etc/netplan

Now it is possible that /etc/netplan gets mapped elsewere when adding the new SSD though I think it is unlikely. (Not able to verify it now to avoid wear and tear from opening the laptop... opened thrice already). The YAML files under /etc/netplan are named with GUID/UUIDs is it possible the file name is computed by the system at retrieval time and adding the new SSD changes the computed GUID/UUID?

System Information

• Laptop: HP Victus 15-fa2xxx

• Operating System: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

• Kernel: 6.8.0-124-generic

• Secure Boot: Disabled

Problem Description

The built-in Wi-Fi adapter is not working under Ubuntu. The system detects the PCI device, but no wireless interface is created and no kernel driver is bound to the device.

The same hardware works correctly in Windows.

Hardware Information

Windows identifies the adapter as:

Realtek RTL8852BE-VT Wireless LAN WiFi 6 PCI-E NIC

Hardware ID:

Troubleshooting Performed

I have already tried the following:

• Disabled Secure Boot.

• Updated Ubuntu packages.

• Booted different 6.8 kernels.

• Installed and later removed the out-of-tree lwfinger/rtw89 driver.

• Reloaded the rtw89 modules.

• Verified the hardware using lspci.

• Checked lsmod, modinfo, modules.alias, dmesg, and journalctl.

None of these steps resolved the issue.

Why this question is different from:

How to solve "No Wi-Fi Adapter Found" error with Realtek RTL8852BE WiFi 6 802.11ax PCIe in Ubuntu 22.04?

I have already reviewed the existing question:

How to solve "No Wi-Fi Adapter Found" error with Realtek RTL8852BE WiFi 6 802.11ax PCIe in Ubuntu 22.04?

However, my issue appears to be different for the following reasons.

Different hardware revision

The linked question concerns the following device:

10ec:b852

My adapter is identified by Windows as:

Realtek RTL8852BE-VT Wireless LAN WiFi 6 PCI-E NIC PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_B520&SUBSYS_88E9103C

Ubuntu also detects the device as:

03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Device [10ec:b520]

This is a different PCI device ID from the one in the linked question.

Questions

1. Does Ubuntu 22.04 (kernel 6.8) support the RTL8852BE-VT (PCI ID 10ec:b520)?

2. Is this PCI ID supported only in newer Linux kernels?

3. Is there a newer or backported rtw89 driver that supports this device on Ubuntu 22.04?

4. Do my diagnostics indicate a configuration problem, or is this likely a missing driver/kernel support issue?

Final update (Solved):

The issue is now resolved.

My laptop has a Realtek RTL8852BE-VT (PCI ID: 10ec:b520) on Ubuntu 22.04 running kernel 6.8.0-124-generic. The in-kernel driver was either unstable or incompatible with this hardware revision.

What finally worked was installing the latest morrownr/rtw89 DKMS driver:

git clone https://github.com/morrownr/rtw89
cd rtw89
sudo make cleanup_target_system
sudo dkms install $PWD
sudo make install_fw
sudo cp rtw89.conf /etc/modprobe.d/

Initially, I tried loading rtw89_8852be, which failed with:

modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'rtw89_8852be': Invalid argument

Looking at dmesg showed symbol version mismatch errors because I was loading the wrong module. My hardware actually uses the rtw89_8852bte_git driver.

Loading the correct module solved the problem:

sudo modprobe rtw89_8852bte_git

After that:

Kernel driver in use: rtw89_8852bte_git
Kernel modules: rtw89_8852bte_git

The wlo1 interface appeared, NetworkManager detected it normally, Wi-Fi networks were visible again, and I was able to connect successfully.

Thanks to Mr. David for pointing me toward the driver. Genuinely, thank you so much for your help.

I'm running Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS and recently installed FireFox 152 through the apt install channel.

When I open Settings/About Firefox, I see the Firefox updates is set to "Updates are managed by your operating system." There doesn't seem to any longer be a setting to check for updates manually or to notify me that an update is available so that I can chose when to do the update.

I opened about:config and changed app.update.auto from True to False, but that had no effect.

I would like to be able to disable the automatic updates so that I have control over when the updates happen. What are the steps to do this?

Additional info: Prior to today I was using Snap to update Firefox. Something went haywire with the auto update that broke Firefox, so I no longer care to use Snap.

More info: I added a config file to /etc/apt/preferences.d so that firefox should no longer be using snap.

$ apt policy firefox
firefox:
  Installed: 152.0.4+build1-0ubuntu0.22.04.1~mt1
  Candidate: 152.0.4+build1-0ubuntu0.22.04.1~mt1

       1001 https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/mozillateam/ppa/ubuntu jammy/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

The only information I'm looking for is: "How can I configure firefox so that it will notify me when updates are available so that I can choose when to apply the updates." It's just that simple. If there are config setting changes to allow that behavior, that will be the perfect solution.

I just upgraded my Ubuntu 24.04-4 MATE install to the latest version. I noticed that in Firefox the save dialog box refuses to save a file on the proposed location when hitting [Enter] like it always did. I first blamed Firefox but it is system-wide. Any GTK app has this unwanted behavior. Other PCs, a fully up-to-date Linux Mint 22.3 workstation and a fresh test install of Ubuntu 24.04 MATE on an HP USDT (Ultra Small Desktop) save just fine on [Enter].

But not only that, I also noticed files being overwritten without any warning when clicking Save (or using [Alt]+s). Barring a complete system re-install, how can I fix this?

My Lenovo Yoga 9 14IRP8 often does not recognize stylus strokes from the Precision Pen 2 when drawing in (mainly vertical, but occasionally also horizontal) tablet/2-in-1 mode, as shown in the picture. I have a hard time to find the origin of this issue. It occurs in different desktop environments (KDE and GNOME) and different distributions (Fedora, Ubuntu 26.04, Ubuntu 24.04). The bugs only happen when my palm rests on the display, but persist when I disable the touchscreen via udev rule:

ACTION=="add|change", SUBSYSTEM=="input", ENV{ID_INPUT_TOUCHSCREEN}=="1", ENV{LIBINPUT_IGNORE_DEVICE}="1"

Kernel: 7.0.0-22-generic

libinput: 1.31.1

Running libinput debug-events reports ultra-short time windows where the pen is detected to be lifted and set back down. Note that the timespans seem too short for a human to lift the pen out of the proximity reach and set it back down, as illustrated by the following snippet:

Does anyone have a similar issue? What is the most likely cause for this?

Stylus behavior in horizontal and vertical tablet mode:

I had updated Ubuntu from 25.10 to 26.04.

Now, when booting into kernel 7.0.0-15, the system freezes while on login screen, goes black, then login screen is displayed again. Keeps occurring in an endless loop. If I select kernel 6.17.0-29-generic instead, the laptop runs fine, and I can log in without issue.

I ran the command sudo journalctl -b -1 -p err, and "Kernel Out of Memory error"s were present.
Are there known issues with the 7.0.0-15 kernel?

Is there any way to proceed?

I have my main site https://mysite.com in nextjs and wordpress blog on subdomain https://blog.mysite.com. They both are hosted on different servers and diff hostings.

I need my blog to be accessible via subdirectory in main site - https://mysite.com/blog

I have successfully proxied nextjs https://mysite.com/blog to see blog but blog's internal links, pages, posts, media is still pointing to subdomain.

async rewrites() {
return [
  {
    source: '/blog',
    destination: 'https://blog.mysite.com/',
  },
  {
    source: '/blog/:slug',
    destination: 'https://blog.mysite.com/:slug', // Matched parameters can be used in the destination
  },
]

},

I have tried many solutions but end up breaking wordpress config

Need help

I've found multiple ways to update environment variables to an Ubuntu system with a desktop environment, some common answers are:

• /etc/environment
• /etc/profile and /etc/profile.d/*.sh
• $HOME/.profile
• $HOME/.pam_environment

And well many also say $HOME/.bashrc which only applies to bash and so is really not correct.

It does not seem to be possible to update the environment via any of these means in a running system. If I open a new terminal tab, a new terminal window, close the terminal and reopen the entire application, or launch a completely different application, at no point does any of them seem to re-evaluate any of these files

Since I need to update the environment on a regular basis for development tools etc., and have multiple long running tasks (stuff that takes days or weeks to complete) that I don't want to terminate, this is not particularly convenient.

How do I get a running desktop environment to reload and apply updates to environment variables, so that I don't have to close everything I'm doing to get newly launched software (e.g. IDEs, Git GUI clients, etc.) to see the updated environment?

If it matters, I'm using XFCE4 for the desktop environment.

I'm lately having slow startup times (90sec vs 20sec in the past) since I upgraded from Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04.

I'm on Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS 64-bit. I'm working on a hybrid SSD (120GB) + HHD (500GB) system, Intel Core i3-6100U CPU @ 2.30GHz × 4 and 8GB of RAM DDR4. My partitions are: SSD: 249MB EFI (/boot/efi), 40GB FileSystem (/), 8GB Swap and 72 GB FileSystem (/home). The HDD is not mounted.

I've formatted my system and re-installed Ubuntu, but the booting time is pretty much the same. I also tried to Open /etc/fstab (as superuser), remove (or comment out) the line contains old swap partition, set up a new swap:

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
# / was on /dev/sdc2 during installation
UUID=cf116583-5203-458c-855e-6f412a1ba35d /               ext4    errors=remount-ro 0       1
# /boot/efi was on /dev/sdc1 during installation
UUID=4C04-C9BD  /boot/efi       vfat    umask=0077      0       1
# /home was on /dev/sdc4 during installation
UUID=a5f9b844-bb2a-49e0-9a8e-d88c76eeb832 /home           ext4    defaults        0       2
# swap was on /dev/sdc3 during installation
# UUID=3bd915e8-cdd5-4ffd-a477-b355a73d53b3 none            swap    sw              0       0

And, I also cancelled the Press Ctrl+C to cancel all filesystem checks in progress message at the booting by adding fsck.mode=skip to /etc/default/grub.

Here are some commands I ran for troubleshooting along with their respective output:

$ systemd-analyze time

Please, take into account that I'm a general user of Ubuntu, so practical solutions will be appreciated.

For some reason, Scroll Lock is not enabled by default. I submit this bug as an enhancement, since as of this moment, I have no idea why Scroll Lock is not already enabled by default. That is the behavior that I expect.

My laptop keyboard does not have a key for Scroll Lock, so I did not notice anything was amiss. It is not until I purchased a keyboard with LED lighting that I noticed that when I pressed the Scroll Lock key, nothing was happening. I was expecting that if I pressed the Scroll Lock key, then the Scroll Lock indicator LED would turn on and the LED in my keyboard would turn on as well, but none of those actions happen. The LED indicator for Caps Lock and Num Lock worked fine, but not for Scroll Lock.

How can I make the Scroll Lock key to work?

I want to know if is there any way to play German Truck Simulator in Ubuntu 12.04? With Wine, it doesn't works. (The installation worked fine, but when I launch GTS, it says me this:

German Truck Simulator unable to find any graphic card driver on your system. 
Please install the correct driver to your graphic card and try start the game again.

If I try to install the Windows drivers, it says me this:

There is no graphic card on your PC which is comptible with this driver. 
Please install the correct drivers and start the installer again.

So, is there a Linux version of GTS? (or a .deb package?)

I recently got a backlit keyboard, and I LOVE to write late at night.

But I cannot for the life of me figure out how to light it up...It lights up when first plugged in, but nothing happens after that....

It is an 'XtremeIT' keyboard. There is a video of someone on Ubuntu who managed to activate it...
