Hieveryone!
Very new to the forum, first post actually, but a long time linux / Opensuse user ( but not a master!)
I bought my MSI Prestige PE60 6QE 4 month ago. I flushed windows partitions and installed Opensuse Tumbleweed, so far so good! everything (mostly) is running as charm. Most of the devices are working great out of the box and KDE is surprisingly very smooth on my Intel skylake and HD graphic card.
Just to update on my thread. I zypper dup yesterday and updated to kernel 4.8.6. Then tried to install bumblebee.
Followed the steps and it worked. glxspheres worked nicely . It was switching on and of my nvidia and loading the intel.
There is a perception that the pinnacle of power, prestige, and influence in the Linux kernel project is to become a subsystem maintainer. On the way to dispelling that myth, this talk describes the roles and responsibilities of maintainers, reviewers, and developers. It compares effective maintainers to effective reviewers, explains why those are not necessarily the same role, and discusses their relative levels of influence.

I always build all three platforms from a Windows 10 machine (5.6.3 and 2018) and then would test them on extra iMacs and Linux machines I had around the office. I make mostly Driving games and many different controllers are involved most of the time. So that could be a lot of the problems as well.
The other thing is, the gaming scene, always has a tendency
to change unexpectedly and rapidly. And for all you know,
gaming on linux and mac, might get more super popular,
in a few months, few years, next year? etc.
and you say Unity makes it SOOOOO easy to release on multiple platforms. I ask you then. How many Mac and Linux games have you released along side of your Windows build (And offered complete support for?)
I have to emphasize that the Software Center is finally lightening fast. Navigation, searching for apps, installation, everything works fine. After more than 10 years of observing the development of the Ubuntu Software Center, I can say it is finally as good as I would like it to be. Maybe I would only like to have a little better indication of deb and snap packages. Right now, you get two entries for these two types of software delivery. I would prefer to have two install buttons: one for snap and another for a deb package. But I assume Canonical wants to transition to snap 100% eventually, so maybe it is ok to have these duplicates for now.
There are many improvements in the Settings app. New Appearance, Multitasking, and Power settings are probably the most prominent ones. I especially appreciate the possibility to switch between three different power modes which are also available in the status menu for a quick switch. It does help to save some battery time.
Wayland is now the default and it works much better than in Ubuntu 21.04. I use the new Nvidia graphics 510 driver and I encountered zero issues with it.Given this new driver and the new Kernel 5.15, I have heard that Ubuntu should also perform much better in games. But I do not play games and cannot confirm that. If you have tried games in Ubuntu 22.04, please share your experience in the comments below.
This time I tried to switch to the legacy mode in my BIOS and Ubuntu 22.04 finally booted. I installed it without a bootloader because I have several Linux distros installed on this laptop, so I could use the Debian bootloader to boot Ubuntu.
It could be just an issue specific to my hardware but I installed many other Linux distros on this laptop that is MSI Prestige 15 and none of them had installation problems. There are also comments on my YouTube channel where other users reported a similar problem.
I launched the snap version first and then the other one. The result you can see below, this screenshot shows the binary version is fully loaded while the snap version that was actually started earlier is still loading.
There is no deb version included in the default repository. To install a non-snap version of Firefox that works faster you need to follow the instructions on the Mozilla website. I doubt a new user would do that.
Snap apps have a fantastic idea behind them - to eliminate the problem of dependencies. As I programmer I understand this pursuit. However, when I look at snap apps from a regular user perspective, I do not like them. Besides the Firefox issue I have just shown, there is a general trend that snap apps do not work as well as their non-snap counterparts.
They have problems with inheriting the desktop theme. For example, I tried two versions of Kdenlive in Ubuntu 22.04. The snap version of Kdenlive the changes cursor theme and makes all fonts smaller, while the deb version of Kdenlive inherits the desktop theme without issues. I have not tested the performance of these two Kdenlive versions in Ubuntu 22.04 but recalling my previous tests, the snap version of Kdenlive was considerably slower during editing and rendering and even crashed.
Otherwise, I have to point out that Ubuntu 22.04 has no problems with recognizing any of my hardware. Wi-fi, Bluetooth mouse, Bluetooth headphones, NVIDIA graphics, printers, everything works as expected.
But the Clipboard works fine if I keep Firefox open after I copy the text. This is an obvious bug. Also, it is not specific to the snap version of Firefox. The binary version of Firefox has the same problem in Ubuntu 22.04.
The last issue I experienced was that Files, the fine manager of Ubuntu 22.04, has crashed several times. I do not even know why. Every time I received this crash message, I was not even using Files. It was open in the background and just crashed.
Overall, Ubuntu 22.04 brings many attractive improvements and the problems I mentioned are not devastating. But given that there are other Linux distros without these problems, I would not look at Ubuntu 22.04 as my daily driver.
can not believe you are wasting a web page in writing these trash, I have instelled ubuntu 18, 20, 21, 22 and never have any major problems, even when there were , I fixed and all not belong to the Linux Ubuntu OS but to the apps such as Pencil.
I always do a minimal install and start from there. Also, the first thing to do was to remove the firefox snap and install chrome binary. It has been a solid OS for the past days of work. No crashes whatsoever and gnome is way faster.
How to group Apps together in same group on Ubuntu 22.04 Dock? For instance, in android smartphone, there is a Google apps group or grouped in a folder on screen, if you clic on that group it shows out the different apps regrouped in.
A couple days ago i updated to 22.04 on my main machine. When i was testing various linux distros in Virtualbox on it, i had massive problems (in combination with other minor problems 22.04 gave me). The desktop enviroment on ALL the virtual machines kept crashing.Then i found out that there was a kernel update on ubuntu 22.04, which caused that problem because the kernel is only supported on Virtualbox 6.1.38 and above, but the virtualbox package on ubuntu is still 6.1.34.
Ive got the new jellyfish ubuntu. What a disaster, no printer, wifi almost impossible to use, no firefox. But ,hey, really slow.Are they working for microsoft??It seems the average non-IT geek (me) is no longer wanted. Disappointing.
As soon as it starts, the machine starts to crawl even after 16GB ram , its a core i3 ,2.2GHz. Ubuntu 22.04 did not have these issues. I do not want to downgrade since there is a lot setup already, need to wait for these fixes to come.
They seemed baffled this time. After waiting for most of the day for some workable solutions, I finally just rebooted the system, playing a hunch that the first, failed, installation might have left things sufficiently out of sync to interfere with initialization of the networking.
I really, really hated Unity. This drove me away from Ubuntu for the most part, but I have had to go back to it occasionally over the years when the client had some kaka dev system that had to run there. There are no more clients using dev systems requiring Ubuntu, so MX21 is good enough for everything I need to do.
Two weeks ago, I upgraded from 20.04 (Focal Fossa) to 22.04 (Jammy Jellyfish). Everything on the get go has been fine until I ran an update/upgrade to update all installed packages to their most recent. Since then, it has not been able to boot into the desktop.
Because of fips, the fed is likely to continue with 20.04 for contracts for awhile (they also accept products running on fips compliant 18.04 releases), but I am sure they will eventually migrate to 22.04, so it seemed a good time to setup a dev install of 22.04 for any future contracting oppertunities.
