I've recently configured a Ubuntu16 server and I'm getting "fail2ban started" emails sent again even though the server did not restart. I noticed this has happened twice, both times the emails came in on Sunday morning.
After this happens, I see that I have duplicate rules in my iptables -S outp...
I need to show our production logo on an ubuntu 18.04 server in kiosk mode. Because the kernel must be booted in text mode with framebuffer disabled, I try to edit a grub theme to show logo png image. After GRUB_THEME is set in /etc/default/grub:

nothing there on syntax highlighting -.- yes, I get it needs to be kept simple, but if users don’t learn about features as important as syntax highlighting (and most have no clue!) it’s … a pity

Could we have the close reason of askubuntu.com/q/1145024/367990 changed from EOL to duplicate of the linked question? EOL doesn't really matter here. (@ moderator ? )

But the vote count on the questionnaire is a very, very bad predictor of the outcome of the election. Only the small, hardcore group of users will even read it.
@Zanna I'd say it's more welcoming. Especially since the issue has nothing to do with the version used. Closing as EOL always felt to me as shirking the problem, somehow.
@Zanna I see closing as duplicate as constructive ("your solution is already over there") and off-topic as destructive ("your question is not welcome here, go away"). Doesn't mean we shouldn't do the latter when applicable, but if both are an option, I believe the constructive variant should always be preferred, as it gives the OP something useful to do next.

@fossfreedom do you know off the top of your head if budgie supports "focus under mouse"? That's probably the single most important desktop feature for me.
@Rinzwind Yes, perfect. OK, I'll try it out then. Although I've been very satisfied with Cinnamon for a few years now.
Recently, after booting the window appears "System Problem Detected" - and I choose "Report problem". So how can I find out what actually is the problem? Otherwise everything works as expected. Xubuntu 18.04 on HP15 laptop.
@Rinzwind I very often have multiple windows open and want to copy/paste between them by selecting + middle clicking. Or I want to have one window above the others and be typing in the one below it. Or I just move the mouse and continue typing in the new window without having to click. I think the first Linux system I ever used was set up this way and I have gotten completely used to it. I can't work with click-to-focus.

We are currently offline for maintenance Routine maintenance usually takes less than an hour. If this turns into an extended outage, we will tweet updates from @StackStatus or post details on the status blog.
And whatever the outcome is, I'm going to ping the new mod and tell them "Congratulations to you and my sincerest condolences to the community for you becoming our newest mod!"
My first mod action? Well yeah, I was just exploring the new data queries and saw my old post there. Looking at how it is pretty outdated and knowing I have answered/updated the same thing somewhere else more recently, that wasn't hard.

I'm guessing it should be fine clearing all filters once in a while?
