Canonical shows ads in the Ubuntu CLI

Re:Canonical shows ads in the Ubuntu CLI by CalRobert on Wednesday October 12, 2022 @07:21AM (#33175351)

I've used Ubuntu as my main desktop OS for 9 years and recent changes make me want to leave. So many things just... broke. Doing a screen recording with mic audio is a huge pain in the ass; all the old tools don't work. When I try to open a file from a program (Firefox, whatever - with "File -> Open" I get a notification that "X(1) is ready" and have to alt-tab to it instead of having it be brought to front and getting focus. And for... what?

I didn't have any problem with this. But your case may be what they're solving by moving from Pulseaudio to Pipewire (see Ubuntu Kinetic 22.10).

Thanks! It works if I start an xorg session, at least.
