[Bug 1877668] Re: KDESVN Context Menu issue
This issue was resolved by installing `kde-plasma-desktop` which put in all the necessary libraries to get KDE apps working much better. This installation also fixed KFind and other KDE apps that I use. Note `kde-plasma-desktop` is huge and after installing and before restarting the computer run `sudo apt update`. If you don't run this update, may brick gnome on reboot making it a very tricky to get back up and running. I made this mistake the first time I installed 20.04 by rebooting without an `apt update`. My Gnome was pooched and I had to do a revert to a ZVN snapshot, which is never ideal as the revert will not fix files under your home which were modified by kde library installation leaving gnome working but in a sad place. If this happens, you would need to hand revert files in home that were modified during kde libs install. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1877668 Title: KDESVN Context Menu issue To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdesvn/+bug/1877668/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1908435] [NEW] Ubuntu Installation Failure With Formatted Disk
Public bug reported: Ubuntu Installer fails when trying to install on a Drive that is previously formatted by Ubuntu installer. I know this issue has been around for a long time but is there a way that the installer can detect a formatted drive automatically and if the usecase is to wipe the drive anyway, automatically format the drive before running any code that may fail due to the existing drive formatting? I can imagine this issue can be a real roadblock for newbies as when it fails as there are virtually no hints of why it is failing. Background: Today, I was installing Ubuntu 20.04 on an new computer I used a DVD I burned back in May of this year. The installer failed and it appears to have already formatted the drive at that point. I had assumed that the DVD may have been damaged so I downloaded 20.04.1 and burned a new DVD. When I installed, it failed again before I got to the final "install" button. I did let the system send the bug report up to the server at the time (about 13:00 EST). I have seen this issue before and it was related to the drive formatting causing the installer to bail so I used Ubuntu Live and gparted to delete any data on the drive. When I re-installed, it installed successfully. During all the above installations, I used the `Wipe drive and use ZFS` option. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: drive format installer -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1908435 Title: Ubuntu Installation Failure With Formatted Disk To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1908435/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1908435] Re: Ubuntu Installation Failure With Formatted Disk
Update, my last 'successful' install failed because it looks like gparted did not completely nuke the drive and the installation did not boot up after it completed. At boot, I got the Busybox screen with no clear errors. When I pulled up the drive in Ubuntu live cd, the partitions were very odd sda1, sda2, sda5, sda6, sda7 and no sda3, or sda4. I used 'disks' utility to wipe all partitions and used `df` to verify that there were no partitions left on the disk and am now trying 20.04.1 install again... This is another failure mode of Ubuntu installer not really wiping the drive before before starting install; a 'successful' installation that does not boot. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1908435 Title: Ubuntu Installation Failure With Formatted Disk To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1908435/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1908435] Re: Ubuntu Installation Failure With Formatted Disk
I was able to get ubuntu installed successfully using ZFS by doing an offline minimal installation both `Download Updates` and `Third Party Software` disabled. The installation was successful and Ubuntu booted ok. I have now switched my production desktop over to the new installation. I suspect the majority of the failures were due to `Third Party Software` option (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu- cdimage/+bug/1871268). As its possible that I got a false positive on the bug, I suggest that you close this ticket until I get time to do some playing around to see if drive formatting is actually an issue with current builds of ubiquity. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1908435 Title: Ubuntu Installation Failure With Formatted Disk To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1908435/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1877668] [NEW] KDESVN Context Menu issue
Public bug reported: With KdeSVN 2.1.0 on Ubuntu 20.04, the context menu is not staying up when the user right clicks an item and instead eaither closes or sometimes automatically selects the first option in the context menu. The only way to use the context menu at present is to right click and hold and drag to the item to select.
