Can not log into Ubuntu Pro https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568623/can-not-log-into-ubuntu-pro

I can not log into Ubuntu Pro as it gives me a 502 error Bad Gateway. I am trying to activate Ubuntu Pro on Ubuntu 26.04. I have a Ubuntu One account but in that account there is no place to activate Ubuntu Pro. Not sure how I will be notified once you have sorted out your website as one can not log into your Ubuntu Pro website either as it gives a bad gateway error. It is not GUFW as that is disabled.

Mounting remote home folder at boot https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568622/mounting-remote-home-folder-at-boot

I'm struggling to mount my remote home folder at boot on my client machine. I want to display in the /home on the client directly the content within my home folder on the server. There are no problems with multiple users, i'm the only one. User name and password are exactly the same on the server as on the client (verified 100 times:)). Folder on the server has rights of 0774, location is /home/username.

The server is running Ubuntu 22.04.5. The client is running the latest Ubuntu. The installation of the client is totally fresh. I installed

ssh and the other things that are mentioned in most of the posts.

Who could me provide with the necessary steps to follow for this basic-setting?

Looking forward to your reactions and tips. Thanks

The server is running samba to make it possible for a windows machine to connect, which is working well even with access to home folders on the server.

All the answers i've seen are not working for the Ubuntu client. Somehow i must be missing something because it couldn't be such a pain in the ass to connect 2 Ubuntu machines this way.

Print job stuck on pending on Ubuntu 24.04 with Canon MF230 https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568621/print-job-stuck-on-pending-on-ubuntu-24-04-with-canon-mf230

I'm using Ubuntu 24.04.4 on x86_64 PC with Canon MF230. Printing a pdf file from Okular worked just fine last night, but stopped today. PC reboot and power cycling the printer didn't help. Here are the screenshots showing the print job permanently stuck on pending:

The scanning works just fine, but the printing doesn't. Any clues will be greatly appreciated.

Printing from another Ubuntu 24.04.4 PC goes into processing mode for a few seconds and stops in paused mode.

Ubuntu 26.04 upgrade breaks all the man pages https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568620/ubuntu-26-04-upgrade-breaks-all-the-man-pages

I upgraded from Ubuntu 24.04 to Ubuntu 26.04 using sudo do-release-upgrade -d and now man (manual) pages aren't working. I tried man atoi and I get No manual entry for atoi although compiling that with gcc worked fine, but the absence of man pages is bothering me.

Nvidia RTX 5070 Ti driver issue on Ubuntu 26.04 with Wayland https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568619/nvidia-rtx-5070-ti-driver-issue-on-ubuntu-26-04-with-wayland

My system has an RTX 5070 Ti GPU and Ultra 7 processor with the recent version of Ubuntu 26.04 installed and has been having an issue with some 3D and video editing software like for example Blender and Da Vinci Resolve, and even video playback on VLC is showing artifacts. While searching online I have stumbled on similar but not exact issues and fixes for them and have managed to fix some issues. Is there anything I might be missing or that I can look into to fix my issues?

Specs:

   Lenovo Legion Pro 7 16IAX10H model
   Intel Core Ultra 7 255HX × 20 processor
   32.0 GiB memory
   NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti laptop GPU
   Ubuntu 26.04
   Linux 7.0.0-28-generic

Software:

   Da Vinci Resolve 20
   Blender 5.1.2 - 5.2
   Liquigen 1.0.5
   VLC 3.0.23

Why is Minecraft freezing up every now and then? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568615/why-is-minecraft-freezing-up-every-now-and-then

   KDE Plasma version: 6.6.5
   KDE Frameworks version: 6.24.0
   Qt version: 6.10.2

   Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 3800X 8-Core Processor
   Memory: 32 GiB of RAM (31,2 GiB usable)
   Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti (using nvidia-driver-595)

I got 2 spark profiles from playing singleplayer:

Issue with Fresh install of Kubuntu 26.04 on Thinkpad T490 with nvme m.2 2230 ssd connected to the WVAN port https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568614/issue-with-fresh-install-of-kubuntu-26-04-on-thinkpad-t490-with-nvme-m-2-2230-ss

I had a Thinkpad T490 with a 256 gb nvme 2280 ssd loading Windows11.

I want to instal Kubuntu 26.04 on this laptop. For this I got another 256gb nvme 2230 ssd and connected it to the WVAN port of the laptop.

Windows recognised this drive correctly. Then I boot from Kubuntu LiveUSB and that recognises both the drives as well.

I installed Kubuntu on the new ssd with a partition configuration of 300mb fat32 partition mounted to /boot/efi and boot flag on, and the rest of the drive formatted to ext4 mounted to /.

Install process goes on smoothly and it says Finished. However on reboot (after removing the liveusb), it directly boots to Windows without the dual boot options.

So as suggested in a youtube video, I removed the original 2280 ssd and then reinstalled Kubuntu on the new 2230 ssd using the liveusb (this time used Erase Disk option instead of manual partitioning).

This time again, the install went on smoothly, but when I rebooted after removing the liveusb, it doesn't show boot screen at all. Instead the BIOS asks for a medium to boot from.

I'd like to mention that in case of both installs, Kubuntu shows in the BIOS boot priority list and it didn't work even after putting it on the top of the list.

I am returning to linux after 15 years, so please be patient with me.

Can't directly see the pictures (thumbnails) in my folders https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568613/cant-directly-see-the-pictures-thumbnails-in-my-folders

I can't directly see the pictures when there are some in the folders, I see the generic picture icon instead of the actual pictures. How to change that ?

Yes "show the thumbnails" is activated on "all files" in the preferences.

I tried debugging with ChatGPT, to no avail.

Thanks

Backlight turns off after booting Ubuntu 26.04 live USB (only faint white window visible) https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568611/backlight-turns-off-after-booting-ubuntu-26-04-live-usb-only-faint-white-window

I recently created a bootable USB with Ubuntu 26.04 Desktop amd64. The system boots correctly and I can see the GRUB menu, including the “Try or Install Ubuntu” option.

However, after I select it, the system starts loading and then the laptop backlight turns off completely. The screen becomes almost black, and I can barely see a very faint white window (probably the installer). The system seems to be running, but the display is unusable.

When I press e in GRUB, I only see these lines:

set gfxpayload=keep linux /casper/vmlinuz --- quiet splash initrd /casper/initrd

I tried adding boot parameters like nomodeset, acpi_backlight=vendor, and i915.enable_psr=0 to the end of the linux line, but the issue still persists.

Has anyone encountered this with Ubuntu 26.04? Is there a recommended boot parameter or workaround for this backlight issue?

My laptop: Lenovo Legion 5 Pro 16ITH i7 11800h + RTX3050ti

Any help would be appreciated.

Wifi not working in Ubuntu 26.04 - Lenovo Thinkpad T16 Gen2 https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568609/wifi-not-working-in-ubuntu-26-04-lenovo-thinkpad-t16-gen2

Ubuntu version: 26.04

Desktop environment (if applicable): GNOME

I have a customized Lenovo Thinkpad T16 Gen 2, which came with Ubuntu 22.04 LTS pre-installed. About a month ago, laptop’s SSD stopped working and I got it replaced.

I installed latest Ubuntu 26.04 LTS on it, but since install and also during install, system is not able to connect to wireless connections.

If I turn on wifi, it can hardly search for the wireless network installed in the same room. Sometimes it connects to it showing low coverage, but disconnects frequently. Sometimes it doesn’t even find the same wifi network.

I have the same issue with connecting Bluetooth networks.

I am forced to use an internet connection using an Ethernet cable

Ubuntu Black Screen after installation on Latitude 5400 (i7) - Works fine in Live USB https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568604/ubuntu-black-screen-after-installation-on-latitude-5400-i7-works-fine-in-liv

I’m facing a frustrating black screen issue with Ubuntu on my Dell Latitude 5400 (i7). Live USB works great: When I select "Try Ubuntu," everything works perfectly. Graphics are smooth, the screen resolution is correct, and I can use the OS without any issues.

As soon as I finish the installation and reboot, I get a permanent black screen right after the Grub menu. The system seems to be running, but there’s no display.

I can only boot if I add nomodeset to the boot parameters, but this makes the UI laggy and I lose hardware acceleration. Settings and Troubleshooting: Secure Boot is OFF. SATA Mode is set to AHCI.

I've tried both Ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04, and the behavior is the same. Since the live USB works fine, I assume it's a driver initialization issue during the final boot process.

What could be causing the display to fail only after installation? Are there any specific Intel graphics kernel parameters (besides nomodeset) that I should try to get the i915 driver to load correctly?

I can't boot after formatting sda3 partition to ntfs in Ubuntu 24.04 https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568603/i-cant-boot-after-formatting-sda3-partition-to-ntfs-in-ubuntu-24-04

I tried to dual boot my Ubuntu 24 OS with Windows suggestions of formatting partition to ntfs said to help the Windows installer work correctly, but after formatting with GParted I booted and the boot stopped at grub with message Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported...

I tried the suggestions of installing grub in partition, but I am a new inexperienced Ubuntu user. I finally ran Boot-Repair, but the suggested repair would not act on the boot.

Here is the Boot-Repair report.

Why does 26.04LTS Desktop files have "\x2d" embedded in their names https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568586/why-does-26-04lts-desktop-files-have-x2d-embedded-in-their-names

Among snap folders in 26.04LTS x64 Desktop there are 116 files which have the text \x2d embedded in their names - why? ordinary bash utilities such as tar and stat are having trouble with these files, in a backup utility I am writing.

Why embed a backslash code in a pathname?


My Problem is that a group of files is revealed by ls as below (listA).

/etc/systemd/system/snap-gnome\x2d46\\x2d2404-153.mount
/etc/systemd/system/snap-gtk\x2dcommon\\x2dthemes-1535.mount
/etc/systemd/system/snap-desktop\x2dsecurity\\x2dcenter-151.mount
/etc/systemd/system/snap-firmware\x2dupdater-226.mount"
/etc/systemd/system/snap-mesa\x2d2404-1165.mount"

I am using tar to generate lists of files to be used in creating backups (Full and differential) and when it lists the above files it adds a backslash to each occurrence of \x2d and when a copy is tried using the modfied path the following error is generated (listB)

cannot STAT "/etc/systemd/system/snap-gnome\\x2d46\\x2d2404-153.mount"
cannot STAT "/etc/systemd/system/snap-gtk\\x2dcommon\\x2dthemes-1535.mount"
cannot STAT "/etc/systemd/system/snap-desktop\\x2dsecurity\\x2dcenter-151.mount"
cannot STAT "/etc/systemd/system/snap-firmware\\x2dupdater-226.mount"
cannot STAT "/etc/systemd/system/snap-mesa\\x2d2404-1165.mount"

It's not a big problem. I can write a small C filter to correct the sequences. I'm just puzzled as to why the hell was the sequence used at all when - would have done the job and created no problems?

And I'm posting a query on the offchance that I'm highlighting a problem no one else has commentsed on.

Related to the settings automatically changed after update [closed] https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568585/related-to-the-settings-automatically-changed-after-update

I am using Ubuntu 24.04 LTS on an HP Victus laptop. Yesterday I installed all available system updates through Software Updater and rebooted. After reboot: All of my GNOME desktop appearance settings (theme, icons, desktop customization, etc.) were reset to their defaults. When I try to change the appearance again, the Settings application does not work correctly and instead shows "Report a bug to Launchpad". Sometimes after logging in, I get a blank screen and have to force the laptop to shut down before I can log in again. The only enabled GNOME extensions are: ding@rastersoft.com ubuntu-dock@ubuntu.com

I have also noticed that after the update my NVIDIA driver stopped working (nvidia-smi reports that it cannot communicate with the NVIDIA driver), and the system is using the Intel Mesa renderer instead. My questions are: Why were my desktop settings reset after the update? What is causing the "Report a bug to Launchpad" message? How can I restore the desktop settings and fix the blank-screen issue after login?

Cannot see the current app in the Alt+Tab switcher https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568584/cannot-see-the-current-app-in-the-alttab-switcher

The only difference between current/selected/highlighted icons in the Alt+Tab switcher is only few percent of gray intensity for background color, which is only visible under ideal lighting condition. If I use any of my 2 laptops in a bright environment with a screen positioned at a slight angle (to reduce glare) then there is no way to see which application is selected/highlighted in the Alt+Tab switcher window. This looks the same on Ubuntu 24 and 26, with Light or Dark theme selected, with high contrast accessibility setting enabled or disabled. enter image description here

In a screenshot, I see that switcher background color is 34,34,34, while selected background is 74,74,74: (74-34)/255 = 15% If I enable high contrast accessibility setting, then selected background is 94,94,94: (94-34)/255 == 24% So, the difference between high contrast a low contrast is only 9% and it is in the dark part of the spectrum, which only owls can see well, not humans.

My problem is not just with yaru, which unfortunaterly uses close to 50 shades of gray to represent states of objects and it is impossible for human eye to see so many shades, but with gnome/ubuntu, which makes it super hard to modify that setting. I wasted days begging ChatGpt and Claude to give me instructions on how to change that and all I got was one hallucination after another, some of them prevented system from loading and requiring reinstall.

Finally, with help from Claude, I came up with the following procedure, which works:

# On the first run make backup of the original resource
RESOURCE=/usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/Yaru/gnome-shell-theme.gresource
RESOURCE_ORIG=${RESOURCE}.bak # Original
if [ ! -e ${RESOURCE_ORIG} ]; then
  echo "sudo cp ${RESOURCE} ${RESOURCE_ORIG}"
  sudo cp ${RESOURCE} ${RESOURCE_ORIG}
fi

WORK_DIR=~/temp
mkdir -p ${WORK_DIR}
rm -rf ${WORK_DIR}/*
cd ${WORK_DIR}

# Extract original resource to ~/temp directory
while IFS= read -r gpath; do
    local_rel="${gpath#/org/gnome/shell/theme/}"   # strip prefix
    mkdir -p "${WORK_DIR}/$(dirname "$local_rel")"
    gresource extract "${RESOURCE_ORIG}" "$gpath" > "${WORK_DIR}/$local_rel"
done < <(gresource list "${RESOURCE_ORIG}")

# Patch several "background-color" items under various "switcher-list" elemwnts, not clear which of them are really used
BACKGROUND="rgba(255, 255, 255, 1.0)"
PATCH_CSS=("gnome-shell-dark.css" "gnome-shell.css")
for css in "${PATCH_CSS[@]}"; do
    f="${WORK_DIR}/Yaru/$css"
    sed -i '/\.switcher-list \.item-box:selected {/{n;s/background-color: [^;]*;/background-color: '"$BACKGROUND"';/}' "${f}"
    sed -i '/\.switcher-list \.item-box:highlighted/{n;n;s/background-color: [^;]*;/background-color: '"$BACKGROUND"';/}' "${f}"
    sed -i '/\.switcher-list \.item-box:highlighted/{n;s/background-color: [^;]*;/background-color: '"$BACKGROUND"';/}' "${f}"
done

{
    echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>'
    echo '<gresources><gresource prefix="/org/gnome/shell/theme">'
    find "${WORK_DIR}" -type f | sort | while read -r f; do
        echo "  <file>${f#${WORK_DIR}/}</file>"
    done
    echo '</gresource></gresources>'
} > "${WORK_DIR}/theme.gresource.xml"

# Compile
(cd "${WORK_DIR}" && glib-compile-resources theme.gresource.xml)

# Deploy
sudo cp "${WORK_DIR}/theme.gresource" "${RESOURCE}"

# Reboot (or re-login)
sudo reboot

This works: enter image description here

But it cannot be so complex!

Also, Claude suggested that there should be a way to modify the Yary theme locally instead of system level, but so far I did not get working instructions.

Is there a better way? Any suggestions?

(By the way, Windows simply paints a thin white rectangle around the selected icon, which is always perfectly visible).

Thank you

Help with the resizing of my Ubuntu dual boot partition https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568513/help-with-the-resizing-of-my-ubuntu-dual-boot-partition

Space repartition:

Space repartition

Inability to scroll to the left with the slider:

enter image description here

I had lots of unused space on my (almost) unused Windows partition, so I wanted to switch it to Ubuntu. When I open gparted, here's what the diagram looks like:

[EFI system partition] -> [Microsoft boot partition] -> [Basic data partition (Microsoft's storage)] -> free space -> [Ubuntu partition].

The problem is that given that Ubuntu is at the right of the space I want to add to it, I can't fuse to the left nor move with gparted. I don't know what to do to be able to fuse the two.

At this point I'm almost ready to uninstall Ubuntu and create a new partition with more space. I've also seen that you can create a live USB key. If that's less far-fetched than all the black magic required to fuse a partition to the left, I'll take it.

SOLUTION : formatting a USB stick with Rufus and put Ubuntu 26.04 on it as an ISO image. You can go up to the BIOS by rebooting your computer and smashing F2 (or F10, F12 depending on your brand). Put USB-HDD in n°1 priority, it will allow you to launch Ubuntu from the stick. You can then use GPARTED to move the other partitions on the computer safely.

HDMI audio broken in noble numbat and resolute racoon https://askubuntu.com/questions/1568473/hdmi-audio-broken-in-noble-numbat-and-resolute-racoon

I use an Asus E510 laptop. After upgrading from Ubuntu 22.04 to Ubuntu 24.04 the left audio channel is now shared across both speakers on the output device (my TV) and the right channel audio signal is not sent.

Clean booting into Ubuntu 24.04 or Ubuntu 26.04 from a live disk also causes the problem, so it is not a problem caused by a damaged or jumbled upgrade. Clean booting back into Ubuntu 22.04 from a live disk fixes the problem again, so it is not a setting on my TV nor is there anything wrong with my laptop or HDMI cable. I have also tested with multiple HDMI cables to be sure.

There are also issues with the new 5.1 and 7.1 HDMI output modes in Ubuntu 24.04 and onward where the right side channels do not respond appropriately.

This is an untenable situation.

I've tried using what they gave me in konsole but some things just error and I can't seem to get around that. The fix I've been attempting is this. The issue I'm having is, it detects the Bluetooth dongle, but the computer is then unable to detect any Bluetooth devices at all. The lsusb is exactly as shown on that link as is the journalctl.

Results of lsusb | grep -i 'tp-link':

Is there any chance somebody could explain to me like I'm a 5 year old how to apply that patch, or better yet, create a solution for me? I am running Kubuntu 26.04 on kernel 7.0.0-27-27.

My windows get auto-resized (usually shrunk but at times expanded) when coming out of the screensaver https://askubuntu.com/questions/1565111/my-windows-get-auto-resized-usually-shrunk-but-at-times-expanded-when-coming-o

Each time my computer goes to sleep the windows change their size. Sometimes they appear bigger, but most of the time, they are smaller. It's hard to tell by how much. Maybe a "titlebar" smaller/larger. It also changes the width by a pretty much similar amount.

I already experienced that issue in Ubuntu 18.04 (I'm on Ubuntu 24.04 now) when using VirtualBox, but now this happens in my regular installation. I'm not too sure what I could possibly try to avoid this issue. It makes no sense to me that the windowing system would just randomly resize windows without user interaction.

Have you experienced a similar situation? Do you have a solution to this problem?

  • OS: Ubuntu 24.04
  • WM: GNOME Shell 46.0
  • Gnome Extensions
    • System Monitor
    • System Restart (showing a button once a restart is required)
    • Failed Services
    • Date/Time with seconds
    • 12 Screens (Cmd-F1 to Cmd-F12)
  • I move the bar with icons to the bottom of the screen

Other than that, it's pretty normal in regard to the Gnome system. I don't think I have anything special. I primarily use:

  • Firefox
  • OpenOffice (Calc/Writer)
  • Thunderbird
  • Opera
  • Gnome Terminal

I also use the tweaks to have some things work normally like the auto-focus of windows by the mouse without having the clicks bring windows to the front.


Update:

I don't know if I changed something, but after a few reboots it started to work as expected and it has not gone back to that weird auto-resize mode on screensaver cycles. So I'm happy now. :)

I have problems with the Bluetooth adapter on Ubuntu 22.04. When turned on from the distribution interface, it immediately turns off.

Ubuntu 24.04 : The package cache file is corrupted https://askubuntu.com/questions/1531181/ubuntu-24-04-the-package-cache-file-is-corrupted

twice I got this cache error. I do not recall how I fixed it the first time. Had done search on internet but some solution did not fix it or could not apply to my situation.

It happened 5-10 minutes after I had purged Chrome that I had installed.

Why is it even happening?

Why does the package have a (1) at the end? Is it a duplicate file?

I am an Ubuntu novice and am looking for some help from experts. I downloaded an Ubuntu app from Windows (I use Windows 10) because I wanted to download Siberian CMS, a free open-source app maker. I have successfully installed Apache2 and am stuck in the installation process for MariaDB and PHP. I have been following the steps in the link attached. Long story short, when I type "sudo mysql_secure_installation" i get "ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)".

reStructuresText (rst) viewer with Sphinx https://askubuntu.com/questions/1208335/restructurestext-rst-viewer-with-sphinx

I am doing documentation with rst about my Python project. When using Pycharm I get errors so I tried using another viewer.

I tried restview but had the same problem.

After some reasearch I found my problem here. Apparently is because Sphinx is something apart. So I just need a viewer to render my rst files LOCALLY.

I found sphinx-view but I believe is not working for the moment as I get the error:

sphinx.errors.ApplicationError: Source directory and destination directory cannot be identical

Which I believe has to do with this

sftp Broken pipe Couldn't read packet: Connection reset by peer https://askubuntu.com/questions/951311/sftp-broken-pipe-couldnt-read-packet-connection-reset-by-peer

I am trying to setup a sftp account to a specific folder. I have created a group ftpaccess and user testuser with home directory as seen here:

sudo addgroup ftpaccess

sudo useradd -d /home/forge/mydomain.com/downloads -m testuser -g ftpaccess -s /bin/false

sudo passwd testuser

sudo chown root:root /home/forge/mydomain.com/downloads

sudo chmod 755 /home/forge/mydomain.com/downloads

Then I have created an transfers directory inside testuser home folder:

sudo mkdir /home/forge/mydomain.com/downloads/transfers

sudo chown testuser:ftpaccess /home/forge/mydomain.com/downloads/transfers

Then I have setup sshd_config like this (rules added to the end of file):

# SFTP account
Subsystem sftp internal-sftp
Match group ftpaccess
ChrootDirectory %h
X11Forwarding no
AllowTcpForwarding no
ForceCommand internal-sftp
PasswordAuthentication yes

Now trying to sftp with this user sftp testuser@localhost but I get error:

packet_write_wait: Connection to 127.0.0.1 port 22: Broken pipe
Couldn't read packet: Connection reset by peer

What am I doing wrong?

Winbind on Ubuntu 17.04 will not start https://askubuntu.com/questions/925355/winbind-on-ubuntu-17-04-will-not-start

I apologize in advance as my Linux knowledge is very limited.I've installed Ubuntu 17.04 Server in a test environment and attempted to install Samba. During the installation the winbind daemon will not start. I've ran apt update && upgrade before installing Samba however it seems that it didn't help out. I've tested Ubuntu version 16.04 LTS and it works without any errors. I'm a bit lost as to why Winbind will not work on 17.04, Google search results didn't help. If anyone needs more info I'll gladly provide it but you'll probably need to show me the command to do it.

Thank you

UPDATE 1: After following andreas advice in running testparm, it found some lines that were old so I've removed them and restarted the winbind service. Still does an error but the systemCTL has found something that might pin point a bit better where the issue is.

How can I disable the Alt + F1 and Alt + F2 shortcuts? https://askubuntu.com/questions/126817/how-can-i-disable-the-alt-f1-and-alt-f2-shortcuts

I can assign Alt + F1 and Alt + F2 to any function I like in the keyboard configuration window, but it's not being used.

Alt + F1 is always 'dash home' and Alt + F2 is always 'run'.

Advice on Moving Partitions with Gparted After Cloning Drive to a larger one https://askubuntu.com/questions/63932/advice-on-moving-partitions-with-gparted-after-cloning-drive-to-a-larger-one

I recently cloned my hard drive to a new one with an additional 250GB of space (232GiB per Gparted). This has left 232 GiB of unallocated space at the end of the drive that I would like to redistribute amongst the existing partitions. I would like to add some to sda1, some to sda2, etc.. I realize that one can only merge partition space when the unallocated space is adjacent, but can't figure out the best way to do this, given existing partitions are all primary... Can someone advise on this? BTW, since this is a cloned drive, the original is still intact, so I don't need to backup.
