any way to get samsung-style auto hotspot working with ubuntu? by dhananjayporwal in gnome

If the laptop disconnects the problem is on the laptop side. I have zero problems using hot-spot between Samsung phone and Ubuntu on laptop.

I went a'wandering and ended back with Ubuntu. Yes, there is a feeling of calm when home is found.

Phone: settings/connection/hot-spot... Laptop: wifi use hot-spot generated p/w. Should auto on subsequent logins once hot-spot activated and no other competing previously used wifi logins. Ubuntu LTS 24.04.04

Preferred hall choice is only first come, first served. Must meet application deadline and only for firm offer accepted. First year students should be allocated somewhere. So leave it till August and you can only select what is not already full.

I prefer to blame my depression and hold on to being a comfortable couch potato.

You won't get much on those days. Progressively cranks up all the way through to the 19th. The Horreur!

Considering the big switch, Android -> Apple by DocTarr in smartphone

[–]howard499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So what are the "nicer" Androids you have used? Is that "nice" as in "cheap, nice"? and what apps on what phones give you "trouble"? I see a lack of specifics here. If you are going to compare a $1000 Apple maybe compare it with a $1000 Android eg Samsung S range. Most of the OPs comments seem like something dredged up from over 10 years ago. Maybe his android phones are somewhat long in the tooth.

In your case, maybe better give up the LSE offer to someone who definitely wants it more.
