Just updated to 26.04 and I am struggling

I unerstand that this version has a whole new setup under the hood. I’m just trying to get myself back to some functional state.

  • After update my bluetooth no longer wants to connect to my keyboard (I am typing this from a backup keyboard for my tablet). I removed the keyboard in question and tried to repair it, but it won’t get past the point that it wants me to type in a 6 digit code. I’ve never hit this hurdle before. Its a Logitech MX Mechanical, if that helps. My Logitech mouse worked fine from the jump. No Idea. I got this fixed after futzing about for a bit more. I don’t know what finally made it work, but we got there.
  • I have a multi-monitor set-up, but I seem not to be able to set a monitor to be the primary and I’ve hard to rearrange the monitor space after every restart. Very annoying. Is there a conf file that might have more settings I can edit?
  • This one is kind of minor, but the system resource monitor I used to have on the toolbar is no longer availible. Is it something that can be added from a repo or anything, as far as anyone knows?

Thanks in advance for any help.

On a restart is the process budgie-desktop-services running?

Re your system monitor. You will need to reinstall whichever system monitor you have installed previously. The packages are in the backports ppa … use budgie welcome if you wish

Thanks!

systemctl status budgie-desktop-services gives “Unit budgie-desktop-services.service could not be found”

systemctl start budgie-desktop-services gives “failed to start budgie-desktop-services.service: connection timed out”

Thinking its not installed, i sudo apt-get install budgie-desktop-services, which states “budgie-desktop-services is already the newest version (1.0.2-2)”

Kinda at a loss here.

My system monitor is installed, according to budgie welcome. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it. My guess is that its incompatible.

ps -ef | grep org.buddiesofbudgie.Services

If you don’t know what the package name of the system monitor you are using, run budgie-welcome from terminal and remove the system-monitor. Let me know what package was removed

Sorry, I didn’t notice this reply until just now.

the results of “ps -ef | grep org.buddiesofbudgie.Services” is:
97335 97319 0 23:05 pts/0 00:00:00 grep --color=auto org.buddiesofbudgie.Services

the system monitor was budgie-sysmonitor-applet

I’ve reworked this. Just update and add to your panel

Yep - I believe this is a known issue. I’ve pushed an update to resolute. I’m waiting for Canonical to process it as part of the SRU process.

Thank you so much. Will this also take care of the ability to choose a primary monitor? Or is that something I need to edit a conf file to manage atm (which is fine, if you could point me to resources to know how).

My final question was answered in this thread. Thanks to all. I will mark with solution.
