I just wanted to know if they are still improving the general (automatic) process for that version upgrade.

I double checked the specs and the Nuc is supposed to have "Intel AX201 802.11AX dual-band 2.4 and 5.0 Ghz + Bluetooth V5.1"
I tried many things reading different forums like install BlueZ and Blueman ... but nothing seems to work
I'd appreciate some help

the friend who helped me install it says i can just add a kubuntu desktop on top of the ubuntu that is already there, and he gave me a few simple commands to do it which i could probably do. (god willing) he said i didnt have to completley reinstall everything and it would be more like mint. i dont totally understand exactly how desktops interchange like that.


can anyone help me understand if this just adding a desktop will actually make enough difference, or should i just completely start over. its working flawlessly as it is, i just miss being able to play around with stuff more.


so will it work to just add a kubuntu desktop on top of the ubuntu i already have, or should i start over fresh? im about to leave the country and wont know anyone who works on linux for a long time, so trying to get it all solid before i go. thanks so much for any advice

I'm new to Kubuntu and its forums, and I need a bit of help.

I am trying to download the "OpenTablet Driver" app through the Terminal, but it's not letting me. Everytime I try to, even following YouTube tutorials, this error message appears:

Is there a way to possible bypass this? Or do I need to install some sort of addon to help resolve this error?]]> Help the New Guy Kiaahs-Paradise97 https://www.kubuntuforums.net/forum/newbie-support/help-the-new-guy/693931-unable-to-install-opentablet-driver-on-kubuntu-26-04-lts-kde-plasma
