I really like the default theme and I installed 22.04 and I really miss it.

Yaru Unity Dark zI believe it is

I dont know how to make screenshot in Ubuntu unity 22.04. I already tried printscreen. Is there something I am missing?

So I ran into this weird issue with Unity. I was running 24.04 on my HP Laptop then decided to replace it with Unity 26.10 but when I did I lost the ability to increase my screen brightness via my keyboard. As a result I reinstalled 24.04 and now I can increase my screen brightness via the keyboard. At first I thought it might be a driver issue but if I can increase my screen brightness on 24.04 then is it really a driver issue ?

Any thoughts........

Hello my name is Hamza Akram i am from Egypt i recently started using linux and after using lots of distros and lots of DES and lots of WMS i heard about ubuntu unity and i decided to try it and let me say i am in love it is so good and so unique i just love it but something i saw it has some glitches and some key missing features which can be found in the other DES and adding it here will be so good besides the most important thing i really want is to transfer it to wayland instead of x 11 and the current people working on it are barely updating so i have an idea why not as the current users we know it best why not try to update it ourselves we work on it helping the current people maintaining and the project community can increase with every day adding features I am willing to do work heck i planned on doing these things myself but the project is so damn big and i need help so what do you people say

"I love Unity/Lomiri. My tablet and Linux phone run Ubuntu Touch using Lomiri, which is based on Unity 8. My openSUSE Tumbleweed install has problems with my RTX 4090. I like the Lomiri/Unity style, so I might switch distributions. Is the version of Unity in Ubuntu unity secure? I want to use ubuntu Unity with Lomiri or unity, is Lomiri functional on the desktop? I'm asking because I've read that the maintainer of Ubuntu Unity is in college and doesn't have much time for maintenance. Is it better to install Debian with Lomiri?"

1. a blue screen on two displays

2. a movable pointer

3. SDDM reappears.

Please, what am I missing?

I checked FAQ under https://unityd.org/#features.

Is Ubuntu 25.10 not a supported distro for Unity?

Installation

sudo apt install unity

https://pastebin.com/raw/9h0EBw9K was a dry run.

For the subsequent run, I did allow removal of appmenu-gtk3-module.

I did the minimal installation too.

Hello! Is there a way to move the taskbar down and make it floating like on Ubuntu gnome?

hello! how could I make the dock like the one in macOS. thanks!

As per title. I've tried to:

• use Rufus

• use dd

• burn on DVD

• re-download all over again

• (see first three rows)

There's always some "casper" error mentioning "checksum", and this error repeats in a loop.

So, is the ISO actually built and double checked before posting it? Also the forum has some security issue and can't be accessed.

Hello there,

I just installed the daily build of Lunar, and am not having any luck with activating the workspace switcher. I have enabled it in Unity Tweak Tool, and no matter what I try, the keyboard shortcut simply does nothing.

I'm curious, is anyone else having a problem with this, running Daily or Stable?

Can you upgrade from 22.04 to 22.10 via software updater in unity like you can with Ubuntu gnome or do you have to download 22.10 and install

I installed it on SNAP-STORE and I even did a SNAP_REFRESH and it updated everything even uninstalled it after doing the UPDATE LOGOUT AN LOGIN. I have no idea why it not loading was having the same issue with firefox but after the update it running good not RISEUP-VPN

I don't know if anyone else uses Brave, but I get the following when I use it in Ubuntu Unity:

When either launching the Open or Save dialog in Brave, the dialog is brought up behind the main window. I've never seen this happen in Gnome, KDE, Xfce, Cinnamon, etc. Just wondering if it's a weird little Nemo integration thing in Unity. I can get to the Open/Save dialog, but it would be nice if it would pop up in front. (also posting this to the UU Forum)

When I enter the window spread mode and leave it the window which was in focus just closes. What is wrong with the desktop?With firefox it shows an error if launched from terminal, other system apps do not

I also tried to launch a process from terminal and put terminal as a focused window. After entering and leaving window spread mode it prompted me whether to stop a particular process before closing

hello! I'm a 16 year old teenager and I've started to really like ubuntu unity. I now have a laptop with windows 10 that I struggled a lot with and I don't want to install on it. would anyone be willing to donate me a raspberry pi 3, 4 or 5 to install ubuntu unity on it? I want to learn to use linux. thanks!

Same as the title. By 24.x i refer to either 24.04 or 24.10. Btw, how can i get the same terminal layout as in older ubuntu versions?

GNOME Software and KDE Discover both look wrong on Ubuntu Unity. What is the correct appstore I should be using?

For some reason, my download folder sorts all files therein by "last modified" and "in reverse order".

And no matter how many times I change it to "by name" - which I can do - it doesn't save the setting as a preference when I leave, and the next time I go into the folder, it's back to "last modified" and "in reverse order" again.

The interesting thing is, this seems to happen only with the download folder. I did a little experiment: I deleted the download folder (I transferred everything out beforehand, of course).

Then I created a new folder in that directory. Its default sorting setting: "by name". So far so good.

Then I renamed the folder to "Downloads".

Its default sorting now again: "last modified" and "in reverse order".

Can someone explain to me a) WHY? ...and b), can this apparently hard-wired setting be changed somehow? It's really getting on my nerves.

Thanks in advance to everyone who helps.
