    [ubuntu] Upgrade dialog too big for display

    Just got around to upgrading a couple of computers from 18.04 to 20.04 and was disappointed to see that this bug persists. It happened on both a system connected to a 1920×1080 TV and one connected...
  2. Re: Steam not running or opening on Ubuntu 18.04

    I did install from the repos (in a fresh install of 18.04) and today Steam won’t start. libxcb-dri3-0 is present under the ~/.steam/ubuntu12_32 folder.

    You shouldn’t have chosen to remove it. An update being held back is not such a big deal.

    I’m in the same situation. I have version 3.4.7 (3.4.7-1~webupd8~xenial04) installed from the WebUpd8 PPA...

    I had this problem a while back and it seems to have resurfaced (after a kernel update?). I found I had a script called wakenet which just contains sudo nmcli nm sleep false to wake up network...

    [ubuntu] Re: Gutenprint 5.2.11 in Ubuntu 14.04?

    Well, I called the thread Gutenprint 5.2.11 in Ubuntu 14.04, so this is getting a little off-topic, but I’ll foolishly reply to your post anyway.

    Isn’t up to me what version I install? There are...

    [ubuntu] Re: Gutenprint 5.2.11 in Ubuntu 14.04?

    That doesn’t sound like a very practical solution (rebooting every time you want to print something). I really don’t need another installation to maintain either, 2 × 14.04 + 1 × 12.04 + Windows 10...

    I haven’t tried downloading 15.10, installing GIMP and checking if the printer is listed but it is in the list of supported printers.

    [ubuntu] Gutenprint 5.2.11 in Ubuntu 14.04?

    Is there any way to install the latest version of Gutenprint in 14.04? There isn’t a printer definition for my new Canon Pixma MG7560 in the 14.04 standard repo version (5.2.10-pre2) and building...

    The repository mentioned on that page is very out of date - don’t use it!

    Yes, I mean the regular menus (File, etc) and the context menus. Icons are really useful to me for quickly identifying a choice, especially with custom actions.

    Re: Constant Login

    I also seem to get logged out often and SSO login is very slow. Is there a default time in which you will be logged out? Can it be changed?

    My external IP stays the same for weeks at a time.
