I have a Dell Precision desktop 3650. It runs all chrome-based browsers like a slug. The longer I run Firefox the slower it gets. Sometimes it pops a window right up, but usually it's wait-wait-wait...
I have best results by replacing cheese with webcamoid.
The Zoom client deb will not install on 23.10 due to dependency issues (the snap Zoom client had webcam crashes and virtual desktops didn't work for me). But if you go to ubuntuhandbook.org and...
5.16.04. is current. Present Snap is significantly out of date, as it has been since day 1. Virtual desktops are not active. Webcam stability is shaky at best. The deb from Zoom is solid but it will...
I hope something in my experience can help here. I have this printer. Mine does not work consistently with the driverless printing setup that is the default. So I deleted those packages, ipp-usb and...
Right or wrong, I still find the Zoom snap impractical since I can't get it to accept virtual backgrounds. So I went to the deb alternative from the Zoom.us site. This package has installed many...
While I don't know about Microsoft, OpenSUSE will not boot with Secure Boot on my Dell Precision desktop (Intel and AMD), but Ubuntu, Debian, Kubuntu, and Fedora boot fine with Secure Boot. OpenSUSE...
Thank you. Bug report filed.
My snap wish list:
1. Fix cpod. When I click on the desktop icon after install, nothing happens.
2. Up to date Zoom
3. Add MasterPDF, Vuescan, and GoogleEarth snaps
Try LibreOffice Draw. Or Okular. They have helped me out on filling out several pdf forms. But ultimately I sucked it up and bought MasterPDF (deb download from their site). It was the best for this...
I read further online and discovered the answer to my questions was yes. I installed 23.04. It works but it's rough around the edges. Snap is like Kmart when it was slowly dying on the vine. What's...
A week before final release, I notice that 1-steam installer still has conflicts and won't install and 2- telegram-desktop is absent from the main repo.
Just wondering - Are they being ported to...
Install gufw. Easy gui to enable firewall. I add synaptic, gdebi, neoftech, nautilus-admin, gnome-cards-data, lm-sensors, ubuntu-restricted-extras, gnome-tweaks, and gnome-shell-extensions-manager....
Extensions Manager. Love it.
I'm a home user. I find that, as a whole, flatpaks sill work better for my needs. And the selection is better for my app needs. But snap is getting better and better and generally works fine, as does...
Xsane (a deb in the repo) is free. Vuescan (deb from their website can be downloaded) is pay-for. If this applies or gives you another path to pursue - I have a Brother printer-scanner. For Document...

1. Remove Snaps
sudo snap remove --purge firefox

sudo snap remove --purge gnome-3-38-2004
sudo snap remove --purge gtk-common-themes

Rhythmbox and gpodder to name two. But for me, the open source program, Pocket Casts, is best. Or Cpod. But they're a snap (or flatpak for those inclined).

gstreamer bad plugins
Britbox works great for me. I use Brave browser. ps - I've occasionally found streaming sites that won't work unless I manually install the gstreamer bad plugins.
The emoticon won't go away. In its place should be :p
