Installing Wine.hq in Ubuntu 20.04

Can’t install wine on ubuntu 20.04

I recently installed ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS and I want to install wine. I did sudo dpkg –add-architecture i386, then sudo apt update. When I ran sudo apt install wine, it gave me this:

If I run this command, it will break by whole system, how do I install wine without breaking everything?

Parts of display glitching, Ubuntu 20.04

Parts of the screen are randomly glitching. An area from one part of the screen may end up in a different place or get mixed up.
The problem occurred after installing the Spotify app via snap. However, after deleting it, it remained.
I’ve tested this problem in Windows and there this problem is not observed.

It’s an Asus x550vb laptop with Intel HD Graphics 4000 / Nvidia GeForce 740M. Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS

20.04 – VDI – Failed to Start System Security Services Daemon

I am trying to up a VDI imagem from osboxes (Ubuntu 20.10 or 20.04) with oracle virtualbox (v. 6.1.18).

The problem occurs when the Ubuntu is loading. I posted a image pointing the error. I saw some other posts in here suggesting disable the sssd.service through systemctl but I am not able to to that because I can’t get there – in the OS interface.

So, is there something that I should try?

Thanks in advance!

20.04 – When I unplug headphones, audio switches to HDMI out instead of laptop speakers

My HDMI port is connected to a VGA adaptor, so to get audio I have to manually switch the audio output to the speakers whenever I unplug my headphones. I’ve tested this with a mic’d headset and normal headphones and it happens with both. I’ve seen an answer to a similar question which suggests disabling the HDMI output in pavucontrol, but there’s no option to do this.

20.04 – KDE: Task switcher does not show thumbnails

I have upgraded 2 laptops to Ubuntu 20.04.

On laptop A I can choose the KDE Task Switcher ‘Grid’ (which works perfectly). I cannot choose that on laptop B. I can install ‘Thumbnail Grid’ but that does not show thumbnails when switching.

I have the feeling this is because laptop B has an older graphics card and that KDE has disabled some eye candy that just happens to also remove the thumbnail window in task switcher.

Some 3D features do work on laptop B: Task switcher ‘Flip switch’ shows the windows in smooth 3D. I just happen to like ‘Grid’ much better.

How can I change to ‘Grid’ and show the thumbnails for all windows, just like I have on laptop A? Can I possibly just copy some file in ~/.kde?

20.04 – How to make Activities overview only shown on current monito?

I am using two monitors, one at the left for screen-recording, another primary at the right for other work. It works fine but when I hit Super key, the Activities overview is shown on the left screen. I want it to be shown on the right screen, so that my application list not be recorded.

I have read some earlier questions but neither works:

One answer suggests using the Dash to Dock extension, but I can not accept the side effect that a Dock appears:

20.04 – Sudo password doesn’t work anymore?

I bought a computer recently where I installed Ubuntu 20.04 on it and installed a few applications using sudo. I am not sure why, but I tried to install few things this morning, but the password doesn’t work anymore. I got :

┌─╼ [~]
└────╼ sudo apt install virtualbox
[sudo] password for infinity: 
Sorry, try again.
[sudo] password for infinity: 
Sorry, try again.
[sudo] password for infinity: 
sudo: 3 incorrect password attempts

Why am I getting this? I tried to restart the computer, but without success. How can I fix that error?

20.04 – Using feh to change desktop background

I am trying to make https://github.com/terroo/wallset program work with mp4 to set wallpapers.

The program uses ffmpeg to cut the video into images and every fraction of a second change the background changes from one to the other. Thus creating an illusion of a video.

After going through the code I noticed that

feh --bg-scale FILE.jpg

Is not working. Any ideas why?

I tried using gsettings to change my background but it resulted in massive lag. Any other options to quickly change the background and lightweight?

Lubuntu 20.04 cannot execute .sh script from PCManFM-Qt

Lubuntu 20.04. I’ve created a simple .sh script to run my Java program, so content of .sh is:

java -jar /path_to_my/test.jar

I marked this script as executable, and when double-clicking on it in the file manager (PCManFM-Qt v. 0.14.1) it just opens a terminal (QTerminal) and does nothing.

When executing the script manually in the terminal it works.
