I tried to switch to 22.04. All seems well at present (but I haven't got very far yer). However, configure_gnome.sh fails to update the GNome settings. This seems due to
https://github.com/SyneRBI/SIRF-SuperBuild/blob/a0ad95c056cd7f666d8e09f296d1234227d50bef/VirtualBox/scripts/configure_gnome.sh#L26-L29
in particular, pgrep -u gnome-session returns 3 PIDs. Using ps I see they correspond to

sirfuser    1375  0.0  0.2 227460 15496 tty2     Sl+  08:26   0:00 /usr/libexec/gnome-session-binary --session=gnome
sirfuser    1423  0.0  0.0  96336  5132 ?        Ssl  08:26   0:00 /usr/libexec/gnome-session-ctl --monitor
sirfuser    1435  0.0  0.2 523372 17552 ?        Ssl  08:26   0:00 /usr/libexec/gnome-session-binary --systemd-service --session=gnome

However, if I just comment out those 3 lines, everything works fine (also on our current 18.04 VM, wich doesn't have the equivalent of the 1432 and 1435 processes above).

@paskino, do you remember why we have them? Maybe it was an attempt to get configure_gnome.sh in the creation of the VM, but we've abandonded that as it doesn't work anyway.

An old issue somewhat related to this SyneRBI/SyneRBI_VM#164

If I'm not wrong the env variables are required to be able to run gsetting

in an interactive sesoin DISPLAY will be set already. Not sure about *DBUS* but I recall using gsetting in a terminal when the VM is up without any trouble.

From my very scientific investigation I currently saw that the 3 PIDs do yield the same result.

but the script is broken, and the simplest way to fix it might be to remove them. anyway. I'll let you get on with it :-)
