Hi again. I tried many things, and eventually I found a bad sector on the SSD, which is 8 years old. I spent 28 pounds on a 480Gbyte one made by Crucial, and here I am back on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS...

I don't use halt day-to-day , this was a special case where other things failed., I use xfce4-session-logout normally,
Thank you for your reply and your time. As I said, the only shutdown command that "worked" was halt, so I wasn't too surprised to see the SYS fan spinning despite having shut down. I held the power...

Problem
I'm running 20.10 on a Raspberry Pi Model 4 and it's amazing how much works! Unfortunately audio is slightly broken, there's a talking underwater quality, choppy might be a better...
Inexpensive consumer grade hardware might not be able to sync up to a VHS signal as well as it does to a TV signal. Be careful.
Today is 11th July. A software update dated 10th or 9th is highly likely to have broken my tvheadend setup using these fine USB tuners MyGica Mini DVB-T2 USB Stick T230
Fortunately the remedy is...
Actually you can skip the xbindkeys part and use the GUI keyboard mapper you mentioned, so you just need the xdotool part as the command to run. Try reducing the sleep command delay or even removing...
Be brave, but cautious. Here's one way to do it. The response time is 300ms so hammering keys will fail. Skip to the end for 'monkey see monkey do' file you can edit and run.
xbindkeys is a...
FWIW I think you can work around this by closing all windows before logout. Over the space of a year I've monitored this carefully, it looks like something to do with saving or restoring the session....
It's back again.
Worryingly, one attempt took several retries.
The desktop appears, the desktop stutters, a drum sound is heard, then user is dumped back to login screen.
I don't autostart...
Dagnabbit, 22 days without this happening, until today. Got in at 2nd attempt. I think I forgot to power up the monitor first as I have been doing as a workaround.
Rummage around in the Unity Tweak Tool, and I bet they are set in there. Some things in Unity seem not to play nice with Compiz. Disable what you don't need in the Unity Tweak Tool and try again. Do...
That's a shame.
Mine start off mirrored, then after login form a desktop with 1920x1080 next to 1680x1050 - now that is cool because 1080 != 1050. I don't think the mirroring is a bug, but a...
I spent some time on Google and Launchpad and it seems there are plenty of similar looking bugs with unity settings daemon, hopefully it will get attention (which I never take for granted and do...
Hi.
I'm on 14.04 LTS, software is up to date, I have the issue and I first noticed it on 26/11/2015. It happens at 34s after boot (i7) when the Xserver apparently restarts without error so Oinos'...
Kiosk design is hard. This is old but might help: http://www.webupd8.org/2011/05/keep-files-from-showing-up-in-unity.html
BACKGROUND
There are already several threads on this but quite old, and few fixes.
PROBLEM
The left mouse button stops working but the right mouse button still works, not fixed by logging...
