Did the upgrade recently when 22.04.1 became available. Didn't want to wait for the graphical upgrade notification as it's very uncertain you'll receive it on Kubuntu (ymmv). Used the command from...
People seem to like macOS here ;) But seriously, some very clean desktops, both the budgie en elementary screens look sharp.
I do not understand why people bother with removing the snap system, especially if they claim to be lazy. The proper lazy solution is to do nothing. If you don't install any snaps manually there...
Certainly, but with the deb packages from the repos I don't expect any sandboxing.
So the snap situation is an improvement if we just consider sandboxing but could be even better. It would be...
Also the sandbox is potentially very powerful but the default for most snaps will probably still be home access. You can turn this off as a user (as mentioned before I tested this with Chromium) but...
Upgrade Kubuntu 19.10 --> 20.04 worked quite well. Only thing I had to fix was reinstalling Cantata and mpd. The default music player is (again) replaced. And that is fine but less fine that Cantata...
Yes that's a nice feature of snaps but can be annoying depending on your setup. For example I was trying Clementine (music player) as snap. It works but my music is not in ~/Music. Well it is there...
Just great to see the screenshots :D Just posting this to let people in here know that it's appreciated.

Yes MX Linux is an interesting distro. https://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/lg-laptop-10-years-mx-linux.html Tried this myself on an old netbook and certainly a refreshing experience. The default...
Seemed to work. Sadly I never not get a nice graphical upgrade prompt in Kubuntu 18.10 although the software sources/update settings seemed right. Not a major issue as do-release-upgrade did the...
Congrats with the upgrades :D How do you like the 'new' KDE? I have a 18.10 for a couple of weeks now and it has been a pleasure to use. Have used KDE 4 (up till Trusty) for years and enjoyed that...
Did find this: https://askubuntu.com/questions/445487/what-debian-version-are-the-different-ubuntu-versions-based-on/445496#445496 I have Cosmic Cuttlefish now and it also has buster/sid in...
Somehow the Software Updater seems to work again, but not completely. It doesn't show all available updates. Running apt update and apt list --upgradable shows 3 packages to update. Software Updater...
The application that was running when this happened seems to be /opt/xdman/xdman.jar Could this be Xtreme Download Manager? https://sourceforge.net/projects/xdman/
Bump, but an informational one ;)
My guess now is that this is an authorization issue. Software Updater did not start, as described in the first post. But it worked fine when starting with the...
I'm running Ubuntu Mate 18.04 Bionic Beaver (upgraded from 17.10).
This happens for a while now. Occasionally the Software Updater opens and shows me updates but most of the time not. Software...
I agree with this (and many other things said in the other posts) in the sense that I observe the same. I don't follow that many forums but what they have in common is mainly long time users posting...
Great work people! This is still a great thread to visit every now and then.
My current* desktop with Ubuntu MATE 18.04:

Does this happen when you see the 'splash screen' ? If so press ESC to see what is happening. Could be some long running systemd job that is delaying shutdown.
Ubuntu MATE (upgrade from 17.10) and everything seems to work so far.
btw: I can't select Bionic Beaver as distro for my profile yet.
One serious issue (still not a 'dealbreaker' as the upgrade seems to be successful): https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cracklib2/+bug/1725116 Furthermore the network and volume indicator...
Will there be a similar topic for Aardvark?
