Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS, the first point release of the latest and greatest LTS of Ubuntu is due next week on August 6th. The first release candidate ISOs have been built. There may be more - or not - over the coming week, so do not consider them final or production ready .
Please join the effort to help test all the flavours to help us get closer to a final image for the release on Thursday 6th August 2020.
I’ve noticed a few minor but very annoying bugs. I’m using the Beta with proposed updates, fully updated. I have NVidia 440 installed with two screens: the notebook and a 24" display
Every time i reboot and login, the fractional scaling is activated, even that i never activated it before by myself. The F.S. is activated in the notebook screen. The result is that some texts gets smaller than normal, including the login page. I fix it by messing around with the settings and than turning the option off, but after rebooting it happens again.
Ubuntu Software doesn’t recognize files from Firefox’s temporary directory. For instance, clicking to download some .deb and then select “open with”. It opens Ubuntu Software, but it returns an error that the file is not supported. Moving the same file to another location and then executing it from the files manager solves the problem.
To get maximum attention for your bugs, I’d recommend you record your testing as an actual QA-test (assuming a QA-test testcase fits where you have actual errors) and record there too (bugs attention is still focused on launchpad, but it allows some extra searching in when and who experienced bugs, plus other testers will be prompted to test for your bug; something that won’t occur on lp report alone).
The addition of nvidia 440 doesn’t fit a QA-test (but I could be wrong, I mainly test flavors), but I believe the Ubuntu Software one could fit a ‘live’ test.
About the 2nd, i found out that there is already an entry about this.
About the 1st, i confirmed that it only happens with Nvidia driver. Using “On Demand” option on PRIME fixes the problem. But i’ll fill the bug as you recommended.
