Let me preface this post with the clarification that I've reported the bugs I've found in Ubuntu 22.04 on launchpad (except for the flatpak plugin issue).
I've been suffering Ubuntu 22.04 bugs since the I started using it (mind you, from a clean install). Some of these bugs are significant and extremely inconvenient, and are absolutely not acceptable for one of the most important distros out there:
- When my laptop's display goes black, it never turns on again unless I suspend the laptop. You better not be copying any information from one drive to the other or save movies on a raspberry pi through Samba, because you'll get your connection cut.
- When my laptop wakes up from sleep, sometimes it never wakes up, so I have to power it off manually.
- The flatpak plugin for gnome software just doesn't work. As simple as that. I must use the command line to install or update flatpaks.
- The night light doesn't work.
- Color profiles are not correctly applied, so either you get a strong pinkish tone on your display of you just don't color manage the screen (I opt out for the second one).
- Totem and the Gnome extensions app cannot be opened in Wayland.
This is extremely annoying, and shouldn't be happening on a supposedly stable and good distro.
At first, I thought this was due to Nvidia, Wayland and Gnome 42. It turns out that's not the case. I just installed Fedora 36 RC1.5 and installed the Nvidia drivers through the software manager. All these problems are gone. Plain and simple. My laptop suspends and wakes up just as it did on 21.10 or Fedora 35. I don't have to make sure the screen doesn't go off during a copy or to pay attention to changing the timeout for screen off because the screen can get back on without any issues. Flatpak works fantastic and so does night light, and I can use the color profile just as I did on 21.10 without any problems.
It truly is disappointing because I'm used to the Ubuntu ecosystem. I wonder if the guys at system76 have fixed any of these. I don't think so, to be honest, given that Pop and Ubuntu are closely related.
