Ubuntu Linux

Hey guys,

I don't know if this is the right place, or where to go if this isn't the right place, but I am running Ubuntu Studio. I don't really know what information is needed, but...

Ubuntu Studio 24.04 KDE plasma version 5.27.12 KDE Frameworks Version 5.115.0 QT Version 5.15.13 Kernel 6.11.0-1011-lowlatency (64 bit) Graphics platform: X11

HARDWARE: Acer Aspire 3 laptop Aspire A315-23 Version V1.21

Issue:

Mouse works fine on USB when the laptop is plugged into power. If I unplug power, the mouse stops functioning entirely, even if I plug the power back in. Mouse trackpad works either way.

Feels like it's some kind of power saving thing maybe, but it should work when it's plugged back into AC right?

Had a browse and it all feels a bit over my head for fixing this.. Any ideas?

Thanks

It just works

I have a local NFS share, which I'm mounting on boot in /etc/fstab. It works, and it's mounted - it's just not showing up in Nautilus' left pane, where other shares are present.

How do I get my nfs share to show up in Nautilus? My current /etc/fstab entry looks like this:

<IP address>:/volume1  /mnt/nas        nfs     defaults        0       0

Plans have been drafted to begin using more Rust-rewritten Linux system components within the Ubuntu 25.10 release due out later this year and ahead of next year's all important Ubuntu 26.04 LTS release. Among the Rust components being planned for use in Ubuntu 25.10 is the Rust Coreutils "uutils" software.

...

Cited as the motivation are performance benefits as well as added safety provided by the Rust programming language. Among the Rust components initially being evaluated are the uutils version of cureitls, findutils, and diffutils. The sudo-rs software as the Rust written sudo is also being evaluated.

Hi all - Sporadically I get this issue where text doesn't correctly display in the UI and a reboot will fix it temporarily (a day or so). See screenshot of right-clicking on a menu item. Any thoughts on how to fix this? Thanks!

Install sober (android app for Linux) following below guide, then ignore vinegar or grapejiuce (both broken) and just run studio lite with sober.

The log scale makes it seem like the snap has roughly 2x more Ubuntu 24.04 users than Fedora users.

The raw numbers shows that the snap has more than 50x more Ubuntu 24.04 users than Fedora users.

In particular tools to help manage backup and rollback of system configuration. Or tools to help migrate and old laptop to the new one? I've seen things about dot file management? Stuff like that.
