Ubuntu Fixes Wi-Fi Connection Fail at Login Screen

Ubuntu users frustrated by the inability to connect to a new password-protected Wi-Fi network at the login screen will be pleased to know a fix is rolling out. This particular bug affects users of both Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and Ubuntu 24.10. When trying to join a wireless network at the login screen (GDM) which requires a password, the password input prompt never appears and the connection fails. Why does—soon to be ‘did’—connecting to a wifi network at the Ubuntu login screen fail? Canonical software engineer (and the original bug reporter) Bartosz Woronicz explains: "The log-in screen [in Ubuntu] is implemented

For those of you who read about my #Fedora and #GDM login issues, well yesterday I did a sudo dnf upgrade -y, which I always thought was the same as doing update -y, but evidently it installed and removed something important.I dunno what, by my system became super unstable, video was farked up the whole 9 yards.. So I did a fresh install of Fedora 42-beta, and so far stable as can be.

I think after 3 or 4upgrades in place, some cruft was left over causing problems. So clean install was needed.

Speaking of which.. What display manager do you all run? Maybe my issue is with the display manager, I am currenly running #gdm (my desktop is gnome). What is the best most stable display manager? What do you use, and why?

Yesterday, I had my first #crash in #bitwigstudio on #linuxaudio in the 5 years I've been using #linux exclusively for #musicproduction. And I think it was a special one. Because, while the audio playback continued, I was thrown to #gdm login.
I'm posting this because I thought it was funny. Because, other than that, my #manjaro #gnome system is #rocksolid.

To be consistent, the #gdm login screen would also have to follow the light or dark system theme. As I said before, I use light and dark themes based on how bright my surroundings are. And wow, it's super hard to see anything at all outside, in the sun, for example, on the dark #gnome login screen. #linux

I reviewed Red Sonja: Consumed by Gail Simone for Grimdark Magazine!

While it’s possible to tell that this is a first novel by an established comics writer, Simone’s portrayal of Red Sonja is always fun.

What kind of a beast am I if I use #gdm with #KDE #Plasma?

Erano già con la mano riscaldata e rotoli di scottex sul divano ad aspettare il servizio di #Report sull'Inter, quando scoprono che ci sarà un servizio anche su #Agnelli e la #Ndrangheta.

My review of Contra Amatores Mundi: A Gothic Fantasy by Graham Thomas Wilcox just went up at Grimdark Magazine! A bombastic, operatic, gory tale of two knights trapped in a strange realm, delivered by one of the editors of the excellent dark fantasy magazine Old Moon Quarterly.

A new #Video https://youtu.be/f57rGhBm3Vk for your #cats on #Debian 12.6 #Server and with #GnomeDesktop 43.9 has been #performance #benchmarked and is ranked 23rd in the #DesktopEnvironment #OperatingSystem #TierList. The bundled #GnomeDesktopEnvironment, #Mutter #WindowManager, and #GDM #DisplayManager all appear to be 1-2 year old versions of the #software. The server performance with 280M Memory Usage, 0 CPU Load, and 1.8G Disk Usage, and 11 second reboot time are not the best.
