I am wondering if someone can point me to a way to make nemo the default file manager on focal. There a are posts scattering on forums but it seems that unity is already using nemo to handle the desktop it is probably simpler and smoother on focal than previous ubuntus.
Thanks for the great job of keeping unity alive, it is by far the most polished and functional Linux desktop.
tem um problema do unity que não tem configuração de touthpad no unity control center que é pro sistema já vir com o pacote (xserver-xorg-input-synaptics) dá pra esse pacote já vir instalado no sistema
I found that you need to go to customize and enable title bar, otherwise the buttons to close, minimize and unmaximize disappear and don’t come back after you unmaximize firefox.
For those who may be interested. I found that Nemo doesn’t refresh itself on my machine. E.g if I untar a tarball it doesn’t show up until I restart Nemo. I solved the problem by adding the line
Sorry if this may sound redundant, but even though I’ve installed the latest version, the icon did not show yet… Is there a workaround or something that I could apply?
@diego-ibias Are you sure this is V2? Because I’m using it on my main system (posting from there), and it appears perfectly fine with the default Yaru+Papirus.
I finally got Focal to install successfully under Virtualbox. I first configured the default Gnome shell the way I wanted it, then installed Unity and switched from gdm to lightdm. I prefer lightdm since I can enable “Guest” accounts. I have it configured on my “live” Bionic systems along with ecryptfs to secure each user’s home directories. Not sure why this was removed after Xenial; I don’t require Enterprise-level protection for my personal computers. Anyway, after rebooting I see Gnome has made tremendous strides since Bionic in performance but it STILL can’t hold a candle to the response I get out of Unity. I also prefer Unity’s implementation of virtual desktop switching compared to Gnome’s. I also noticed that Aislerot Solitaire no longer has the “Global Menu” under Unity. That’s too bad. Still digging around in preparation to POSSIBLY upgrading this summer when 20.04.1 comes out.
Hopefully by then a lot of the “indicators” and applets I rely on will be upgraded to work with Focal.

If something isn’t working as expected then the odds of that changing in 20.04 are slim to none
(- unless there is a user-side workaround…
The time to address such things is during dev, not after…
As far as global menus, I wouldn’t be surprised if 20.04.x is the end of them. As it stands here mosr of the apps I use still have them in fine working order.
It’s not that the applets and indicators don’t work… it’s that the developers haven’t updated their repositories to recognize “focal” yet. This happened the last LTS cycle, too. By the time the .1 version rolled around the PPAs were updated to recognize “bionic”
