[Touch-packages] [Bug 1951491] Re: Can't run snaps: .slice/session-1.scope is not a snap cgroup

I may be mistaken in thinking that the Firefox I was using under 20.04 was not a snap. All the same, launching new Firefox windows with the same session on different workspaces was a normal part of my day-to-day workflow until I upgraded to 22.04 a couple of weeks ago. I now get an error when I tr

No, Bill Canaday (bill13510). No, no, no. And no. The linux way is everyone does their bit to make the software better. Users, who are not developers or system administrators, report when things don't work properly. This is a time-consuming and often seemingly thankless, fruitless and pointless pr

More on Apport "bug". Just reporting another bug now, Apport gave me the option of including logs. It said if you include logs they might contain personal data such as username and something-or-other. This is brilliant. A most welcome and reassuring sign of progress. The procedure could be impro
