CyborgZeta[m]Better to stick with the default desktop (GNOME) in Ubuntu. Installing different desktops, in my experience, tends not to work as well as something like Debian.00:51
pikapikaCyborgZeta[m], just do xubuntu from the start02:39
pikapikaMuch easier02:39

EckiHalf a year ago I got fed up with windows and decided to try Xubuntu. I first tried a live system with Focal Fossa, but was not able to use my printer, a HP Officejet Pro X451dw.09:54
EckiThen I tried Bionic Beaver and to my astonishment, the printer worked well, I installed Bionic Beaver and worked happily with it ever since. I delayed the update to Focal Fossa until now, hoping the probelm would be solved by now. But after updating today, the printer is dead again. I get a warning: "printer possibly not connected", that is09:54
Eckipositivly wrong.09:54
EckiI have run printer settings, the printer is detected there and I get a notification that an additional driver is needed, but none is found.09:56
guivercthis maybe helpful Ecki, https://askubuntu.com/questions/1273927/hp-printer-not-printing-correctly-after-ubuntu-20-04-install09:59
guiverchp issue declared as fixed on https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and-printing/release_notes with hplip update 3.13.2 Ecki10:03
EckiThank you guiveric, I removed the printer and installed it again, but I couldn't print a testpage and still get the notification "printer possibly not connected.10:22
EckiFinally the printer printed a testpage, but only one and no other printing. Again the notificatione "Printer possibly not connected" after disconnecting and connecting the USB cable to varying USB solts.10:35
