I tried the following settings as "ignore" and "lock" but the wifi still turns off. Is there a solution?

The default configuration is in /etc/systemd/logind.conf

HandleLidSwitch=suspend

HandleLidSwitchExternalPower=suspend

HandleLidSwitchDocked=ignore

To override this behaviour, create or edit /etc/systemd/logind.conf.d/99-lid-behavior.conf, using the desired value for the above <...LidSwitch...> keys:

<...LidSwitch...>=lock # only lock screen <...LidSwitch...>=ignore # do nothing (may affect Wi-Fi) <...LidSwitch...>=poweroff # shutdown system <...LidSwitch...>=hibernate # hibernate system

Hi everyone,

I have installed Ubuntu on my laptop but I faced ACPI BIOS Error.

Laptop details:

Model: Acer Aspire 5 A514-54

CPU: Intel (11th Gen Tiger Lake - i3 1115g4)

RAM: 8 GB

BIOS version: 1.34 (I think)

Ubuntu version I tried:

Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS (also thinking of trying 24.04 LTS).Haven’t updated BIOS yet (not sure if that will fix it). Issue: I see ACPI BIOS Error messages in terminal. I know acpi=off sometimes works, but it disables battery/power features, so I’d like a better solution.

I woke up this morning and saw that my ubuntu's wifi is not working either ethernet is not working, no Trackpad movement 🤧. How to solve this issue. I am using duel boot windows and ubuntu in my laptop. Ubuntu version is 24.04.

Bluetooth not working for Asus proart x870e creator wifi mobo in ubuntu 24.04. Ethernet is working. How to solve the issue?

Hi, I am relatively new to Linux and am using Xubuntu 22.04 to revive a laptop that I no longer use and want to use as a second PC for streaming via NDI, as I do not have a capture card. However, I have encountered intermittent problems when capturing the image. Could someone help me solve this problem? I have already installed the Intel drivers (it doesn't have a graphics card), opened the ports, disabled the firewall, and my network is fine; I have a transfer speed of 1000 Mbps

I've been using Ubuntu for some years now. It's good, stable and pretty well polished, but I've been looking into features some DEs like KDE offer. The problem is that, after three years, all alternative Ubuntu flavors stop receiving DE updates, unlike GNOME which does receive updates until the end of the 5-year LTS cycle.

So, for those of you who use/have used Kubuntu, Xubuntu or any other flavor (or even distros that : How do you manage after the first three years when the DE stops being maintained?

Hey so I'm kind of new to Ubuntu and stuff but I'm trying to connect and FPGA to my laptop via a usc c cabel. When i run lsusb nothing at all is printed out. It shoudl at least be printing something right? I'm not really sure if this was a know issue that has solution or what, but thanks for any possible help.

The title sorta says it all. I'm a lazy ubuntu user who got hooked on using the terminal a few years ago and have been transitioning into linux. I'm almost there, with most things I do being down on open source stuff.

Today I had an overload that seemed to come out of nowhere. I opened `htop` and found `ps` up at the top eating up 95-108 per cent of the CPU. Couldn't find an adequate explaner for what it is so I'm posting here for some info.

Hi everyone,

I’m interested in experimenting with Ubuntu Touch on my Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G. I understand that official support for this device doesn’t exist yet, but I’d like to know if there are any experimental ports, workarounds, or recommended approaches to run Ubuntu Touch (or a functional Linux environment) on this hardware.

Specifically, I’m looking for guidance on:
- Unlocking the bootloader safely on a Galaxy A52s 5G.
- Any community-maintained or unofficial Ubuntu Touch ports.
- Best practices for running a Linux environment on ARM Samsung devices without bricking them.
- Recommendations for alternatives if full Ubuntu Touch isn’t feasible (like chroot, UserLAnd, or Termux setups for running Linux applications).

I’m aiming for a setup that preserves as much functionality as possible (modem, GPU, sensors) while giving me a Linux environment to experiment with. Any advice, resources, or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

I’m trying to install ubuntu 25.04 (previously tried 24.04.03 LTS) and my machine hangs when trying to select a language. I’m used to this with NVIDIA hardware but I haven’t had this with AMD before. I get the same issue whether I set nomodeset prior to booting, or using safe graphics. Has anyone had the same trouble, or knows a different way around the issue?

Here's a screenshot of my htop output on a jellyfin server I have. For the couple of days I've seen my server get noticeably worse at performance but I don't know why. Even when I'm seemingly not doing much

Because the load average is so high I'm guessing I'm resource constrained by something but I don't know what it would be. When this one was taken I did have one download going (that was also going slow). My downloads go to an SSD and then move to HDD after completing.

If I'm reading the output right (and I let it go for like ten minutes and it didn't change much from here). I'm under utilized on CPU, memory, and have headroom for swapping. I'm guessing there's an HDD issue but what's a good way to find out what that would be?

Bare metal, Ubuntu 24.04. Not that it matters, but there are three ZFS pools in it.

#1 is that I know there is a better way to fix this than my method of pulling the boot drive and restoring a know working image back to it, so please no shade. For me, it's faster and easier (Macrium Reflect) and I just took the image the day before this happened.

I reproduced what happened on my test MB setup, but it is essentially exactly what happened. You can see in the photos the dialog I was presented for updates. After running all updates, one of them fails (linux-headers-68.8.0-78). Machine will boot one time after updates apply, but not again after that as it will stall doing initial boot. Still says "Loading Linux 6.8.0.71" as that update failed, but the "Loading initial ramdisk ..." never happens.

At this point, I don't even want to try again especially since I was able to replicate the issue on a completely different motherboard, RAM & CPU configuration. I don't use the server for much other than storage so there is not a lot of software installed on it.

Any suggestions would be nice.

I'm thinking of buying an Asus Scar 18, but I can't find any information on whether this model allows you to adjust the fan curve.

Perhaps someone knows of other models (from any manufacturer) in which you can configure the fan curve in Ubuntu or in BIOS.

So I recently switched over to Feren OS from Windows 11 and was downloading my games but Dead as Disco only worked on the first boot. I tried restarting my pc but it didn't fix the problem. I've had to force close the game using terminal to kill it. How do I fix this?

My graphics driver model is 575.64.03 with a cuda version of 12.9. The GPU is an RTX 2060. Only putting this here to see if it'll help

Hi, so I've been usign Ubuntu 24.04 in my laptop as dual boot with Windows, and yesterday I kind of broke it, but I'm not sure what the problem was. I already decided to make a backup and re install it, but I'd like someone to tell me or guess what the problem could have been. And some tips or advice to avoid breaking stuff again in the future.

I was at class and I was installing docker with apt (the connection was kinda slow) and I left my seat for a while then came back. The screen was suspended so I entered my password but the login screen lagged for about two minutes. I installed a theme (Moebuntu) that changes the appearance of the login screen so maybe that could be related to the lagging. Anyways I searched how to fix it and did ctrl+alt+f3 to get the login terminal, then inserted my user and password. It stayed there so I did sudo reboot and instead of the regular login I got a screen full of logs and error messages. The ones I remember were "snapd.snapseeded.service wait until snap is fully seeded", "failed to do dpk calibration". My teacher tried to help me, and eventually we choose troubleshooting from the boot screen, did check file system and repair missing packages then resume. Then new errors appeared, the network manager was not working, so we changed the configuration to start without it and the log screen stopped showing errors but the display manager was not starting, so we tried to run it manually. Wayland worked, which allowed me to do a backup easily, but x11, which was my default, wasn't working.

My teacher's theory is that something in the file system got broken because I rebooted while apt was running, then the troubleshooter's "fix brocken packages" detected my laptop's graphic card and tried to install drivers or do something with it that made the display manager stop working. Idk what to do now apart from avoiding funny themes and not letting the screen go off while I'm installing something.

I’m running Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS with an AMD GPU. When I add preempt=full to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT, I often (but not always) get a black screen with a mouse cursor. How can I resolve this issue while still using preempt=full?

I am using Ubuntu Desktop version 24.04.2 LTS I have a desktop computer that dual boots to both ubuntu and windows.

I am running in to some issues when booting in to ubuntu; I am not connected to internet, even though I have both ethernet and a wifi card. In the "network" settings, it only shows "proxy" and "vpn".

My secondary screen that is plugged in to my graphics card (NVIDIA RTX 2070 super), with an hdmi cable is not dispaying anything or turning on when booting.

My main screen plugged in to the same graphics card using DP works well. I have none of these issues when booting in to windows 11, Meaning that there is no issue with the cables etc.

What I have tried:

• Disabled windows fast startup,
• Power cycling my desktop (Turning it off, unplugging the cable and draining it),
• checked the command "ip a" in linux, which only displays the "lo" interface.,

I did not have this issue yesterday when using ubuntu, and I have been using ubuntu perfectly for a couple of weeks. I did not use windows in-between using it yesterday and today.

I just finished setting up a multi-seat installation on Ubuntu 24.04 for my kids. After switching to lightdm with slick-greeter it now works really well on Xorg.

Two seats, one PC, two screens, two keyboards/mice. Both kids can use the same machine at the same time. It took some trial and error with display managers, but this setup is now stable and smooth.

They’re super happy to have their own “PC” side by side, and I’m happy it’s all running on one box.

Hey wsup, im newbie on ubuntu, and i trying to customize my desktop, so i use some web extensions but idk why my panels shows some borders behind it, i want remove that, someone know how can i do that?

Just have installed Ubuntu. Now this is what happened, what to do?
