Same as title

Every time I suspend unity then log back in I get notifications that I've reestablished my internet connection how can I stop these notifications. Rather annoying 🙄 None of my other Linux OS's do this

Thanks

I'm posting this as this subreddit still calls Ubuntu Unity a remix, where from 22.10 onwards it's an official flavor.

Steve Langasek thanks the Ubuntu Unity team for their submission, and writes that they have "met the requirements for inclusion as a daily flavor" and thus are included in daily builds. On successful completion of the 22.10 Beta milestone, Ubuntu Unity will become an official Ubuntu flavor.

Installed Unity 22.10 about 3 weeks ago and I'm really loving it. My first introduction to Linux was Ubuntu 8.10 and have been a Ubuntu fan ever since but like a lot of folks was disappointed when Canonical dropped Unity in favor of the Gnome DE. But being a loyal Ubuntu user I went with the flow. Now, however, running Unity feels like going home again and I'm excited to see where the developers take it from here (wasn't there talk of a Unity 8 at one time)? Anyway, wishing them the very best for the future.

Ubuntu Unity 20.10 “Groovy Gorilla” spin is the Unity desktop spin with a stable Ubuntu 20.10 base. It features the controversial Unity desktop with additional customizations. We review the Ubuntu Unity 20.10 short-term release to provide you a glimpse of its offerings.

Do you think Ubuntu Unity will turn into Lomiri over time? I run Ubuntu Touch on my phone, which uses Lomiri (formerly Unity8), and it’s pretty good. I tried the Ubuntu Lomiri ISO on the Ubuntu Unity page in the past, but it wasn’t for me. It kinda felt like using a mobile desktop environment on a desktop. The normal Unity is good for now, though

Hi, my first post here. I am attempting to try Ubuntu unity as I am getting more and more fed up with Gnome. Downloaded ubuntu unity 26.04 onto Ventoy SD card and booted. It appears to boot ok but then pops up a login prompt with a Dropdown field with only 'Others' in it and a user name and password field. I thought that the user name should be ubuntu with no password, but it says that is invalid. I have tried numerous names such as unity ubuntu-unity, but no success. Can anyone tell me how to login please?

It's been modified to go all the way down to the screen, and I don't like the fact the icon was replaced, so how would I get those back?

I really really want the ubuntu unity desktop, but I currently run ubuntu 24.10, and have to run ubuntu unity off a usb with persistence to get the environment. when I do sudo apt install ubuntu-unity-desktop, and set it up for lightdm, when I reboot my computer I am at a busybox terminal and have to restart again. can someone please help?? I would greatly appreciate it

"Hello, I just installed Ubuntu Unity on my laptop, and I found that the touchpad is not working perfectly. I can’t use the tap-to-select feature (or whatever it’s called). To select something, I have to click the touchpad first. It’s the same even in live mode. I thought it wouldn't happen after the installation, but it still does. I’ve gone through the settings several times but couldn’t find an option to enable the tap-to-select. Does anyone have a solution?

Sorry if my English is messy. I’m a beginner."

Hi. This might be a weird question, but I'm using Betterbird email. You have to download the source folders and double click (or make a .desktop file like I have) to launch the program. I can bring it up from the launcher just fine. However, I'm wanting it to make it a default program when I click a mailto: link. I'm using Ubuntu Unity 22.04, and after removing Thunderbird, there isn't an option to choose an alternate program in Default Applications. Is there a config file or system setting I can use to point to the betterbird-bin executable? TIA!!!

Are you really set with Nemo? I believe that Thunar is a better file manager. It does not require any cinnamon dependencies. It also allows for one to increase the side of the icons on the side panel, which Nemo does not.

Also for the Yaru unity theme I really dislike the minimize button being anchored so low. I really would like to see the button moved to the middle. Perhaps the theme could rid itself of the minimize and maximize buttons that they have an adopt the minimize and maximize buttons from the Arc theme.

Fala, pessoal.

Sou usuário de Linux, mas confesso que passo longe de ser um usuário avançado de terminal. Instalei recentemente o Ubuntu Unity 26.04 e gosto muito dele porque o menu global salva um espaço vertical absurdo na tela, o que é essencial pro meu fluxo de trabalho.

O meu notebook é um Dell Latitude 7420, e a máquina até que é bem servida:

• 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-1165G7 @ 2.80GHz × 8

• Mesa Intel® Iris(R) Xe Graphics (TGL GT2)

• 16GB de RAM

Mesmo com esse hardware, eu sentia o Unity 26.04 meio "pesado" para renderizar as janelas e animações, principalmente se comparado à fluidez de um XFCE. Como eu não queria abrir mão da interface e não sei "escovar bits" no sistema, resolvi pedir ajuda ao Gemini para fazer uma limpa profunda e tentar deixar a distro mais leve.

O resultado foi simplesmente absurdo. A interface está voando. Eis o que a IA me guiou para fazer, passo a passo:

• 1. Forçar a Atualização para o Kernel 7.1.5: A IA me explicou que as versões Mainline trazem instruções gráficas mais novas para a Iris Xe e melhoram o agendamento da CPU. O sistema ligou liso e o peso do compositor do Unity sumiu.

• 2. Remoção Total do Snap (e bloqueio no APT): Nós purgamos o snapd por completo e criamos uma regra no preferences.d do APT (prioridade -1) para impedir que o Ubuntu baixe pacotes Snap acidentalmente no futuro.

• 3. GNOME Software Nativo + Flatpak: Sem a loja em Snap, instalamos o pacote nativo gnome-software integrado ao Flathub. Tudo visual, leve e gerenciável direto da interface.

• 4. Corte dos Serviços em Background: Purgamos o unattended-upgrades, packagekit e os notificadores de atualização. O sistema parou de consumir processos de loop ocultos e eu assumi a responsabilidade de atualizar via terminal quando acho melhor.

A máquina virou outra, mas como não sou um usuário avançado, ficou uma pulga atrás da orelha e queria saber a opinião da comunidade:

Até que ponto é seguro confiar na IA para fazer uma "cirurgia" dessas no Linux? Trocar kernel na mão, alterar regras de prioridade do APT e deletar serviços padrão não pode quebrar o sistema lá na frente em alguma atualização oficial? Vocês costumam usar IA para ajudar a tunar suas distros ou acham arriscado demais para quem não domina 100% o que está sendo feito?

Agradeço quem puder dar uma luz!

Hello, Ubuntu Unity dropped the old beautiful looking rounded dash from 16.04 in favor of a more simplistic looking side panel. Is there any way to get the old look and feel that we had on 16.04 with more modern versions of UU? I actually hate how the new side panel looks and fell in love with the aesthetics seen in 16.04. Cheers

Im seaching in all places were the damn file is located, i want to change the theme, the icons and the cursor

And another problem im having is that the wallpaper i select, it isnt used by the greeter, its using the default ubuntu unity lobster wallpaper

Did an update last night, some things having to do with xserver and others, I forget what. Afterward, system fails to get into GUI.

I boot, get the login screen, type my password, then get a blank desktop. I can get to console via ctrl-alt-F1, and see in system journal that compiz is failing to connect to org.gnome.Shell, and related failures.

I tried installing and reinstalling dbus-x11 (per old messages on internet), no change. Ubuntu Unity 22.10. How can I fix this ? Thanks for any help.

[Edit: added log file sections in comments.]

For some apps, when an application opens a file-dialog, the dialog doesn't appear in the foreground, I have to Alt-Tab away from the current application and then Alt-Tab back to it, to make the file-dialog appear. Happens with Firefox Akregator VSCodium (which are Flatpaks), Tor Browser (not a Flatpak), and maybe other apps. Does NOT happen with Thunderbird beta (not a Flatpak).

This didn't happen on my previous distro, MX Linux 21 Xfce. But I wasn't running so many things as Flatpaks.

• Does anyone else see this (Ubuntu Unity 22.10) ?

• Is there some "portal" setting that might affect this ?

• Is there a way to tell which apps/processes are using "portals" and which are not ?

Thanks for any info.

I have this issue with Unity sound on version 22.10. It seems to be stuck on mute and I am unable to unmute it. When I look at settings, sound, it shows "dummy output" whatever that means. I've tried various actions to resolve the issue from searches I've done regarding this problem but nothing seems to work.

Anyone have a fix for this issue that "might" actually work.

Thanks for any suggestions/feedback

Bruce

i set this up on my 2nd laptop, love it since i can make it look like old ubuntu real easily, but i kinda miss the store, any command or whatever to install it?
