[Bug 1908402] [NEW] Kubuntu 20.10 fails to boot after installation from ISO
Public bug reported: I downloaded http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/20.10/release/kubuntu-20.10-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent and downloaded the ISO via Bittorent, wrote it to an USB stick and booted a very ordinary PC (which has a single SATA HD) from it. I chose install Kubuntu, chose use entire disk (guided) and successfully installed with no visible issues (chose download from Internet during installation and install third party stuff, but I believe this is not relevant). At the end when prompted I chose "restart" and when the installer a few moments later asked me to remove the boot medium and hit enter I removed the USB stick and hit enter. When the PC rebooted then the BIOS complained that no bootable device could be found. I did the install twice, both times with the same effect. I then installed Kubuntu 20.04 using the same procedure, and things did work fine with 20.04. I've successfully installed dozens of Linux distributions on that machine over time, and it's very unlikely to be a hardware issue. To me it looks like the Kubuntu 20.10 installer fails to properly make the disk bootable or install the bootloader. Prior to my installation attempt, some other Linux distro had already been installed, but I explicitly chose "use entire disk", so that should not matter. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1908402 Title: Kubuntu 20.10 fails to boot after installation from ISO To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1908402/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1759112] Re: Disable numlockx on laptops
With Xubuntu 10.04 on a Macbook, although that machine is correctly identified as a laptop, Numlock is on by default. This is because the internal keyboard is (technically correctly) recognized as a USB keyboard by 55numlockx. The solution was to explicitly set numlock off in /etc/default/numlockx. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1759112 Title: Disable numlockx on laptops To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xubuntu-default-settings/+bug/1759112/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1458365] [NEW] incorrect decimal separator in German install
Public bug reported: With the ubuntu-15.04-desktop-amd64 install (and most likely all others, too), when having selected German as the language, the system states that a hard disk of at least "6.6 GB" is required. However, in German the decimal separator is not a point but a comma, so it should be "6,6 GB". Please note that the same is true for certain other languages such as e.g. French (I didn't check whether the same issue comes up when selecting French as the install language).
