Here's a highly enthusiastic review of the upgrade process from Kubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver to Kubuntu 22.04 Jammy Jellyfish on my Slimbook Pro2 laptop, covering two sequences of upgrades on the command line and associated niggles, hardware and software compatibility, applications, look and feel, improvements in display scaling, network speed, performance, responsiveness, heat management, and noise, some small problems, minor tweaks, and more. My laptop just got virtually younger by almost five years, believe it or not. Take a look. https://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/slimbook-pro2-upgrade.html Cheers, Mrk
Did you try the tweak that was mentioned in these two posts? https://www.linux.org/threads/acpi-error-after-installing-ubuntu-22-04.40993/#post-164104 https://askubuntu.com/questions/1411354/ubuntu-22-04-acpi-bios-error-bug/1425476#1425476 It worked for my old Acer Travelmate 5744Z that had the same or a similar issue. I didn't have the issue with my (even older) desktop. Did you try Xfce4-screenshooter, Shutter, or ksnip? If I'm not mistaken, these work OK. Xfce4-screenshooter is no-nonsense, like GNOME Screenshot (was).
In Kubuntu 18.04 and also in 20.04, when updates were available, there would be an 'Updates' icon (notification badge) in the system tray. In Kubuntu 22.04 however, as soon as new updates are available, not only will there be an 'Updates' icon in the system tray, but also a 'Notifications' icon next to it (visualized by a bell). This double notification by an 'Updates' plus a 'Notifications' icon is silly, only the 'Updates' icon would be well enough. To me, it is unclear how to suppress the unnecessary 'Notifications' icon when there's an 'Updates' icon, without changing other setting for updates and notifications. Does anyone have an idea how to do this? Thanks very much.
22.04 can be upgraded from 5.24.5 LTS to 5.27.5 LTS with the Kubuntu Backports, Backports Extra and Experimental PPAs. You get exactly the same system now running on Lunar Lobster 23.04! Its possible on a LTS desktop to get it current. A pity that isn't available on the enterprise desktop.
The same annoyance was mentioned here: The solution might be this: I applied that setting, and also unchecked "Show in history". Let's see if this reflects the settings and behavior in Bionic and Focal.
It does not. It made no difference. I still get a double notification, an 'Updates' plus a 'Notifications' icon.
