Installing python-is-python3 didn't work for me.

It is possible to edit the .deb file to fix this. See here:

OK, this is a very minor issue, and there are many workarounds I could do. But I'd like to see if I can resolve it, partly to learn more about how devices are recognized by the OS.

I have a fairly new installation of ubuntu 22.04. When I use the "compress" item in the context menu from right clicking on an item in nautilus, and then click the drop down list to select a...

I was having this problem as well. Totem wasn't playing videos at all. I tried Parole and it played audio only. VLC worked. As the OP says, installing

Sound on my current laptop has been dicey for a long time. But it was more of less working as recently as last night. This morning, no sound at all (no speakers working, no microphones working, no...

Maybe this should go under the Multimedia forum?

I just had this problem, and after some sleuthing managed to fix it. But I thought I'd post it in case anyone else has this problem.

Audio was working just fine until a couple of days ago. Then my audio completely failed (no sound at all through any device, sound settings just showed "Dummy output" as the only option for "play...

I seem to have fixed the problem!

Doing some reading I came across the grub kernel parameter, vt_handoff. Apparently it is supposed to make a "smoother" looking boot, with a lot of the black...

Hmm...didn't notice that the nvidia-390 package is already installed. Might it be a problem if nvidia-387 and nvidia-390 are both installed?

My computer is failing to make it as far as the login screen frequently on boot. The behaviour is intermittent and I haven't figured out any pattern to when it does this and when it doesn't.

Ah, thanks I had missed that. That hasn't got scanning working but it has changed the behaviour.

I made those changes then rebooted. Now when I try to scan in simple-scan it comes up with the...

Hooray! It works!

Thanks very much sccman. I installed the libudev0 as you suggested. I didn't do anything about the driver. I then tried running it and it works now (well, Steam loads - I...

This is a very minor issue which I am, nonetheless, finding somewhat annoying. Under Ubuntu 16.04 when I insert a usb thumb drive it launches a window of nautilus displaying the contents of the...

Agreed. In most recent Ubuntu installs I've done the DVDs have just worked, with no messing around. Don't know what was different this time.

Hello,
This is similar to some other problems reported but the details of the symptoms are different and other posts I've looked at haven't resolved the problem for me. I can get a DVD to play...
