Ubuntu anomalies on Power
MauryG5:
Guys I can't compile the Kernel on Ubuntu anymore and I can't understand why.... It seems to be missing something but it doesn't tell me things and I've searched the web and I've installed everything that I found written but nothing, it gives me errors to install modules. These are the screenshots that I get when I try to install the modules and when I try to install the Kernel at the end ... Is it possible that I can not find all the necessary files or understand what I'm missing in order to install it correctly? Do any of you understand what's going on? Thanks

No guys the mistake was mine of a silly at the end ... When giving the module installation command, I gave sudo make install and instead the correct one was sudo make_install ... For a trivial error like this I could no longer compile the kernel on Ubuntu ... poor me ...

Hi Borley, I tried to disable the part you told me about security but unfortunately the Firefox problem persists ... I also found problems with Thunderbird, the preferences to configure the program do not open. Apparently the problems are mostly focused on Mozilla products ...

Guys, I see that there are few who use Ubuntu on Power, nobody intervenes and so I suppose we are not many unfortunately ... In any case, regarding the anomalies found, that of the network connection has a bit of the incredible I would say. I mean, in the installation he sees the usual network port and loads that like every Linux distro does. Upon checking the connected network when you are inside Ubuntu in desktop mode, you notice that it does not see the network connection. The great thing is that if you open a browser it regularly browses and goes to the sites but when you see the connection, it tells you that that port is not connected and it does not even come out in the list of network ports. The first 2 of the Blackbird come out, which as we know are not connected and the one that is regularly connected does not come out ... All this is quite absurd I would dare to say because the network connection is regularly present and he saw it at the time of installation of the operating system ... Even if you give the command on the terminal he lets you exit all 3 ports and tells you the connected one, but in fact he does not see it ... I would define this as paradoxical ... ???

Greetings to the whole Power community, for now I see little activity on the forum so I try to write myself every now and then at least when I have some little good news. I finally managed to fix Ubuntu's age-old network connection problem on Power. I spoke directly in the Ubuntu community, where questions of all kinds are asked, the site can be found by writing "askubuntu" on Google and from there they finally gave me the solution. The problem was fortunately not a bug as it appeared to me up to that moment but it was simply a conflict between the 2 software that manage the network on Ubuntu. I had read something about it but it was not clear enough in the places where I had read it and various information was missing. Explaining the problem in detail, the Ubuntu guys replied immediately asking me for output from Netplan and Network Manager and from there I began to understand that there was some possible conflict. The problem arises on Ubuntu simply because Ubuntu, unlike Fedora or Debian, for the server version, for some years now has decided to use Netplan, while it has left Network Manager unchanged on the Desktop version. It follows that if you can choose to install server or desktop, everything is fine because he installs the manager based on the version, if instead like us at Power, you are forced to install the server version, when you manually add the part desktop, the system does not know that it must deactivate 1 for the other obviously and installing Network Manager as well, it sends both into conflict and the result is the defect of the network I had. They immediately made me make the change with commands that deactivated Netplan and left all the network management to Network Manager and from that moment everything went fine. ;D
