Ubuntu 26.04 testing

I’m noticing some micro-stuttering in Resolute today. Like, the mouse freezes for half a second, or I’m typing and there’s some input lag with the keys. I tried playing a game to see if it happened there too, but it didn’t. Is anyone else having this issue?

Does anyone else has problems with sharing their screen on discord? Whenever I try to start the stream it immediately stops.
I tried checking out the various logs but I didn’t notice anything particularly useful.
If you have any ideas of things I could check out to find the problem, please tell me!

Spontaneously thought to upgrade to 26.04 last night, but failed, the installer crashes at a very early stage… first it seemed because I had some packages installed that were “foreign” or whatever, but even after I fixed those first (by reinstalling them from official repos etc), still nothing. Abandoning this effort now and will do a fresh install once the LTS is out officially….

The Ubuntu “archive” was down both this past Thursday and Friday morning, which made installation quite difficult. It should be fine today, but with only a week to go, you might as well wait for the official release. :slight_smile:

I have installed 26.04 on three systems now. The systems with AMD and Intel graphics have the busy cursor issue. The system with NVIDIA graphics works perfectly. If it were not for the busy cursor issue the other systems work fine.

Thought I’d mention this;
I had an issue with the installed Ubuntu 26.04 LTS had no internet connection.
However the live ISO internet worked fine.

The issue was missing dhcp. The fix was to add it manually:

```sh
sudo nano /etc/netplan/*.yaml
```

```yaml
network:
ethernets:
eth1:
match:
macaddress: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
dhcp4: true
dhcp6: true
set-name: eth1
version: 2
``

``sh
sudo netplan apply
```

After upgrading to Ubuntu 26.04, the dash search does not longer search for installed apps. This is the only thing I use dash for. Manually searching for installed apps in the list is very annoying.

Edit: After deleting ~/.cache (probably ~/.cache/tracker3/files/meta.db is the important one) and rebooting, results appear again.

Hello,

I have substituted the gnome text editor with gedit, and I’m not experiencing this issue, at least in many applications that I have tested. I think that I will stick to it, since gedit has the save button on the top bar, which is really handy.

Checking now I can see that the string development is gone from the operating system version under settings.

Regards!

I’m not sure where to report this, or if there are already reports, but while testing Ubuntu 26.04 after updating to nvidia-driver-595-open, I noticed a suspend issue – the laptop would freeze during suspend, the keyboard wouldn’t turn off or flashing caps lock, and it would get very hot. The only option is a hard reset (10 seconds power).

After installing nvidia-driver-595 (without open), sleep worked very well.

This means that the recommended open drivers do not work correctly with the suspend option.

I too notice very random micro-stutters even while gaming, this on Kubuntu 26.04 Beta btw, are you on AMD graphics by any chance.

Yes, AMD. In my another Intel / Nvidia laptop work well.

Hi,

Is it the right place for UbuntuStudio talk?

I’m very glad to see a new release of my favorite Linux distro: UbuntuStudio (actually running 20.04!).

Beta release show a keyboard problem while live booting, but announced here to be known problem.

Unfortunately… the Release have the same problem on my computers (3 laptop tested): unable to select a non-US keyboard with UbuntuStudio 26.04 :frowning: .

Should I report this bug anywhere else?

Regards,

You should start your own topic in Support and Help and use the tags ubuntu-studio and desktop

Provide as much information as possible so hopefully someone can help.

Thanks

Hello,

for those of you that you are using the extensions places and desktop icons, I found the following bug: when plugging in an external hard drive to an ubuntu machine, it takes some time until it is recognized under places and desktop. I have noticed that it is recognized right away from nautilus (files), yet not from the aforementioned extensions. It doesn’t happen the same thing for usb sticks though. I filled a bug report here:

edit: I searched a little bit more the issue and I discovered that this is happening for ext4 drives and not exfat ones. Is this a new feature of ubuntu, because in older versions I wasn’t observing this kind of behavior.

Regards!
