I installed Ubuntu 24.04 on my grandma’s computer and her printer suddenly started printing human anuses

The creator wrote in a pinned comment that they had a bad boot media. No idea what you guys are arguing about.

They just want to hate Ubuntu without facts

I have a fix, use Debian.

technocrit ,

Can confirm. I recently ditched Ubuntu after more than a decade of increasing bloat, bugs, snaps, etc. Debian has been a breath of fresh air.

boredsquirrel ,

This was because of a faulty boot media

I installed ubuntu 24.04 over my previous installation of 23.10 and had literally 0 issues, so I'm going to classify this as user error.

    Endeavor's problem is a Calamares problem in specific.

    Pro tip: use an external partition editor before the install. For endeavor, this used to be gparted, but is now partitionmanager. (It even comes with the ISO!)

    I tried to install Windows 10 about two years ago as a dual boot option. The selection on which disk to install it on always failed with some obscure error. Turns out the installer couldn't handle multiple disks being available so I had to unplug every disk except the soon-to-be Windows 10 disk...whereas the openSuse installer was able to setup a pretty complicated RAID+encryption setup easily.

    Every install, clear ALL partitions on the drive, THEN run the installer. Be happy.

    But I like to use Btrfs on top of LUKS and more often than not it's not an option.

    jjlinux ,

    Can't comment to that, I keep my home folder on a secondary drive, and just nuke the system drive when I distro hop.

    First attempt at the Server iso it wouldn’t boot, stuck in an endless wait for some snap services to start. I don’t use Ubuntu anyway and wouldn’t use Server before a .1, but it was not the best out of box experience.

    imagine relying on a technology made by the company best known in the tech industry for abandoning even extremely successful products

    There is some good stuff in there

    I will never forgive them for murdering Inbox.

    Tramort ,

    Or Picasa

    acockworkorange ,

    I hated Picasa, but I know that was because it was anathema for my needs. For most people it was great, and I never understood how they failed to monetize such a successful product.

    I'm not sticking up for this release, but you're just bad at puters, brah. Get gud.

    Apparently there are other issues as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1KXeTd30KI

    From a comment on HN...

    To the outside observer, it seems like it's not a carefully taken business decision but some random engineer who wanted to learn rust and flutter.
