Re: Final Beta Testing

Hi all, As a long time user of Xubuntu I started testing Xubuntu 18.04/Bionic a couple of weeks ago. I have found testing to be a simple but productive way to help improve Xubuntu. I amĀ  no expert. I am an end user with general knowledge of computers and operating systems, software and

2018-03-12 Thread Willem Hobers
Devs, Today I noticed that, with Xubuntu 18.04, the keyboard key to adjust screen brightness is not working anymore. The keys to adjust volume (up, down, mute) still work. I'm confident that, in 18.04, the brightness key worked before, as I use that key on a daily basis. The last time I

The aftermarket route is certainly the route I've taken, for the reasons Pjotr described, and I would indeed prefer the LTS-only-release cycle. Seems Pjotr read my mind just now. :-) Xeep going strong. ;-) thanks for all the work. W Op 8 aug. 2016 15:12 schreef "PK" :
