#ubuntu26_04 — Public Fediverse posts

For more than 8 years, each year I have upgraded at least one of my robots to the latest Ubuntu, and every year the audio output and input configuration I used the prior year broke.

Days re-reading every Ubuntu audio troubleshooting guide ever published. Eventually I would stumble on something that worked.

This year upgrading to Ubuntu 26.04 again broke GoPiGo3 robot Dave's audio, but this time I had Claude. 15 minutes and he's talking again.

If you upgraded to Ubuntu 26.04, have an old Python script that uses multiprocessing (with no threading), and "ps -ef | grep python" suddenly looks like a war and peace manuscript. In 2 minutes Claude will tell you the secret one line to make Python 3.14 behave like Python 3.12 did for you up until now.

Spoiler: multiprocessing.set_start_method('fork')

How does Claude know all these things?

I cannot contain my happiness!

I figured out how make the new GoPiGo3 Raspberry PiOS Trixie install work on Ubuntu 26.04 Resolute Raccoon.

Now I can upgrade my ROS 2 robot “Kilted-Dave” to become “Lyrical-Dave”

I've been running Ubuntu 26.04 'Resolute Raccoon' on my 'Streaming Fortress' PC
NUC7 - Intel J5005 - 16GB DDR4-2400 RAM - 120GB SSD (2013 Hardware)
for the last two months now.

I put this machine through the wringer: heavy streaming on a bit ambiguous shady sites films and tv series, and running custom 'Fortress' scripts to isolate it completely from my home network.

Despite the hardware being a bit old and the heavy workload, it’s been a flawless experience so far. Even the major updates didn't break my custom scripts or security structure. Well done, Ubuntu team!! 🐧 🫶

On today's episode of ENOENT screams into the void about ubuntu: they broke the xdg desktop portal for gnome in ubuntu 26.04...

If you're rawdogging the dev version of ubuntu like me you'll want to not `apt upgrade` until the fix in here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xdg-desktop-portal-gnome/+bug/2138284 is fully released.

KDE, sway etc. are probably unaffected
