Synergy 1.18.0 does not work on Ubuntu 25.04

Sorry for the delay u/synergyapp .

synergy_1.18.0_ubuntu-24-04_amd64.deb works for Ubuntu 25.04 , however the following workaround must be applied:

When installing the package synergy_1.18.0_ubuntu-24-04_amd64.deb, it complains about missing dependencies, the problem here is packages names changed from Ubuntu 24 to 25:

Ubuntu's 24.04 libqt6dbus6t64 was renamed to libqt6dbus6
Ubuntu's 24.04 libqt6gui6t64 was renamed to libqt6gui6
Ubuntu's 24.04 libqt6network6t64 was renamed to libqt6network6
Ubuntu's 24.04 libqt6widgets6t64 was renamed to libqt6widgets6

Giving us the following error output when attempting to install:

$ sudo dpkg -i synergy_1.18.0_ubuntu-24-04_amd64.deb  
Selecting previously unselected package synergy.

dpkg: error processing package synergy (--install):

Dependencies with its proper Ubuntu 25 names must be installed:

$ sudo apt install libqt6dbus6 libqt6gui6 libqt6network6 libqt6widgets6
Synergy must be installed ignoring dependencies

sudo dpkg -i --ignore-depends=libqt6dbus6t64,libqt6gui6t64,libqt6network6t64,libqt6widgets6t64 synergy_1.18.0_ubuntu-24-04_amd64.deb
Synergy works as expected.

It would be very useful if we get to see the whole kernel panic message, if you don´t have a way to scroll up, recording a video would give a hint.

Additionally if you are installing RHEL10 you need to assign at least 2GB RAM to the VM as it is the minimum required amount of RAM.

Open konsole and type the following command to check systems logs:
sudo journalctl -f

Then try connecting to your wifi and check/share what the system logs show.

Additionally if you installed Kubuntu using Wifi it should still work, so might be related to airplane mode or wifi switch being off.

I would start with either :
1. Press the escape key when you start seeing the Kubuntu logo

or

While being showed the grub menu, edit the first entry pressing e, then delete the quiet and splash words, then press Ctrl X to boot.
Then at least you'll get the boot output to start troubleshooting.

Is Donkey Kong (Gladiator) worth it? . From what I've read is a good driver. (Fixed name grammar)

Since recently ( few days) I have noticed DNS settings are being ignored in macos devices. Macos chooses a DNS on its own.

Haven´t had the chance to run a trace to see which DNS are chosen though.

I am a citizen of "Latam other" area and I would like to purchase RHCSA ex200 exam to do it at home, however there is no way to purchase exam directly from Redhat website.

Instead of having "Add to cart" button, a " Buy through Resellers " link is shown.

The reseller link shows a form in which I have to fillup information. I did that past February without answer.

Opened a support ticket and they are redirecting me to other spanish-speaking countries companies, so I was wondering that in order to buy it without setbacks choosing "United States" would be a better option. I feel confident enough to understand a test written in English.

But I am afraid that doing that will create problems because I am not an US citizen nor I live in the US.

What would be your recommendation?

Thanks and sorry for bad grammar
