[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1746741] Re: cannot switch between workspaces with ctrl alt arrow after one update
Attila: >"UPDATES that could have caused the work-space switcher to malfunction" There were no xorg or related updates, nor anything that stands out to me as the root cause. Either an earlier update was at fault, the packages updated have some wonky interaction with GUI packages, or you may have some configuration cruft from upgrading your OS versus freshly installing. >"So, you're recommending that I abandon this bug report? Meaning that there is no hope of being fixed? :)" Without the results of testing a 64-bit OS, testing the latest release, and given you are using Unity (Ubuntu now defaults to GNOME going forward), there is not much of an expectation. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-2.44 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1746741 Title: cannot switch between workspaces with ctrl alt arrow after one update To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1746741/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Attila: >"Is it safe to just copy and post here all the updates by date?" That's fine. >"I am currently using a 32 bit version still (because of an older version of truecrypt)." Any reason why you have to use truecrypt? Ubuntu comes by default with the ability to encrypt your data during installation, or after an installation is complete. Also, 32-bit versions of Ubuntu are deprecated in favor of 64-bit. So, to maintain supportability, you would want to migrate to a 64-bit OS. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1746741 Title: cannot switch between workspaces with ctrl alt arrow after one update To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1746741/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Do you, Christopher, think that if I set up bionic-desktop-amd64.iso on a usb stick and boot to try out Ubuntu, I will be able to test the desktop work-space switching?

Hi again, Christopher, Thanks for the tip! /var/log/apt is only listing some updates from the 2nd February, so that is now too helpful. I however found my way around in Ubuntu Software Center and was able to locate the updates by date, however, I can't exactly recall which day it was that ruined the work-space changing.

Attila, checking the Ubuntu Software Center, Synaptic Package Manager, or /var/log/apt should reveal which packages were updated specifically. Also, it would help to confirm if this is already resolved in Ubuntu by testing http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ and advising to the results. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1746741 Title: cannot switch between workspaces with ctrl alt arrow after one update To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1746741/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Hi Christopher, I would like, however I can not remember, sorry. If I am not mistaking, there was an update (the update window popped up) with only a few KB in size... the usual "Ubuntu base" ?
