  1. Re: Is DD the best way to save a known good state of Ubuntu?

    I have always simply used dd. I run it to image a nice functional installation from time to time. I always run it from a different partition, so the that system I am imaging is in a shut down state....

    Subtle Marco Compositor Bug

    Here's a subtle and obscure buglet in UM 22.04 for you: When using the Marco window manager with its built-in compositor enabled, a strange graphical glitch appears. So far I have only observed this...
  5. Re: Naming firefox snap as "firefox" is a mistake

    Same thing in Ubuntu MATE - deb package replaced by snap, and the deb package only installs the snap (and snapd if necessary). I, too, am now running the tar.gz from Mozilla. I do not want snap and...

    Boutique and Welcome not working

    I'm using Ubuntu MATE. This morning, I updated my 22.04 installation for the first time in a few days and got updated to the snap version of Firefox. It is working fine, albeit a little slow on...

    Re: Sound volume reset at reboot

    Strange. Definitely working properly here - I've been through several reboots. Again, for the record, I am using MATE.

    Re: Sound volume reset at reboot

    It seems like this has been fixed? I hadn't used Jammy in nearly a week, booted up and sound was 74%. Picked up a load of updates today, including a new kernel, so I rebooted. Sound was at 14%, right...
  10. [ubuntu_mate] Re: sound system parameter being reset after rc.local, resume from suspend

    Well, that sure seems to take care of it, and right at the source. Thank you very much! The modern Linux sound stack is a complicated thing...
  11. [ubuntu_mate] Re: sound system parameter being reset after rc.local, resume from suspend

    Yes, I actually replied to your thread on this issue, wondering if it was related. I've also added a 'me too' to the bug report.

    Curiously, Debian Bookworm, while it has the volume reset bug,...
  12. [ubuntu_mate] sound system parameter being reset after rc.local, resume from suspend

    I have a new issue with my sound stack in Jammy. I have Intel Display Audio and the Realtek High Definition Audio. By default the stack is set up such that the 'auto power saving' mode is on, which...

    [SOLVED] Re: FireFoxd Single Page Save

    I use gildas' SingleFile - works quite well. Most extensions don't ask for money, so that to me is not a red flag. In any case, I haven't heard any negative reports. I don't know to what extent...

    [SOLVED] Re: Snaps bloating out my / partition

    I use Ubuntu MATE. I am fortunate in that there is nothing that I 'need' a snap for. So I removed all the snaps and then 'apt remove snapd', and that's that. Snaps are an attempt to address a real...

    Re: Sound volume reset at reboot

    For what it's worth, I have the same issue (running with MATE). It always boots to 74% volume.

    Perhaps related... I have a command in rc.local to turn off 'auto power save' on my sound card,...
  16. [SOLVED] Re: Bootable USB for Windows 10 using UNetbootin

    You might want to try Ventoy - it handles every Linux and Window iso I've thrown at it. You install it on your USB stick, and then just copy iso files to it. When you boot it, it gives a menu of all...

    Re: Autocorrect not working in LibreOffice

    Yes, I saw the same thing - I just attributed to the fact that I have my UI elements scaled up. In any case, it should be fixed soon. There's a PPA with the fixed GTK+3.0, and it works fine here. See...

    Re: Autocorrect not working in LibreOffice

    I think the size difference might depend on if you increased your font sizes or display scaling in your GTK theme. I have an eye problem that requires me to do both, and when I launch LO with that...

    Re: Autocorrect not working in LibreOffice

    Hey, that works! Menu/Toolbar/StatusBar text doesn't take on the DE-customized fonts, but the main editing area is fine. Until the fixed GTK+3.0 reaches the repo, this is a decent workaround. Thanks...

    Re: Autocorrect not working in LibreOffice

    I think it has something to do with the GTK stack - the problem does not exist in Kubuntu 21.04. The same issue occurred in Fedora Workstation, which is Gnome, a month or so ago, and after a couple...

    Hi All,

    There seems to be a problem with autocorrect in LibreOffice in Hirsute/MATE. There is no auto-capitalization of first words in a sentence, and the replacement table is not being...
