After I upgraded my Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04, I got a couple of unspected surprises and saw that the icons on the ubuntu's Desktop have a white box/space arround the icon that profoundly annoys me. (as you can see in the image below)  On top of that it seems that I can't select multiple folders and move them around freely. Is there any way to solve this problem??
I've just upgraded from Ubuntu 18.04 to its newest LTS version - 20.04. While it comes with some interesting changes, the Desktop icon system was messed up in my opinion. When you hover the mouse cursor over the icons, you see a huge space marked around them that cannot be violated (as you can see in the image below) so that they need to be placed very far apart from each other.  18.04 allowed you to place icons much closer to each other and didn't have that marked space around them. This new way leaves much less space on the Desktop to organize large amounts of icons - including folders, files and shortcuts. Is there a way I can significantly reduce the size of icons and their "spaces" or go back to the old system of organizing files? On "Settings", there is a tool to change the size of Dock icons, but not of Desktop icons.  Also, every time I move or delete something, the Desktop "flashes" and the icons seem to rearrange themselves automatically, nothing of which happened in 18.04. I also can't move anything directly to the Desktop; I need to move to the Desktop folder on Nautilus. This makes me start to think about downgrading Ubuntu back to 18.04.
Does someone knows if it exists some ppa packages source for the newest Ubuntu version 19.10 i had problem with that when i upgraded from Ubuntu 19.04 to 19.10 i didn't work? Emergency mode due to filesystem check On bootup, filesystem check occurs and it stops at 61% and I am redirected to a page with the message you are in the emergency mode.

Where can I find computer modern fonts for use in other programs, e.g. Adobe Illustrator? The Wiki page on  says     The pair $(m, m+2)$ is twin prime, iff $4((m-1)! + 1) \equiv -m \pmod {m(m+2)}$.   This is obviously connected to Wilson's Theorem. Can anybody provide a proof for that, along the lines of thought given here, ? Does this sentence seem weird? In case of a syntax error, pdflatex usually (in \errorstopmode) gets interactive and asks you what to do. I know I can press:   X to terminate S to enter \scrollmode (continue processing without stopping if further syntax errors arise, but stop for other errors) R to enter \nonstopmode (continue processing without stopping if further errors arise) Q to enter \batchmode (continue processing without stopping if further errors arise and suppress further output to the terminal)   Apparently, only the latter three (SRQ) can be provided implicitly by the respecive \...mode commands or the -interaction=...mode command line option. However, what I need is a mode that mimics the implicit pressing of X, that is, to make the pdflatex process terminate after the first error. Layover at Dusseldorf and Frankfurt, category A or B visa? I am a Indian citizen in the United States on a F-1 visa.  For the summer break, I am traveling (round-trip) from Chicago to New Delhi via Dusseldorf-Frankfurt by Lufthansa airlines. My onward Journey would be on July - 8 and return Journey on Aug - 11.  My layover will be of 1 hour 10 mins in Frankfurt and 3 hours in Dusseldorf.  I would like to know if I require Category A or Category B Visa. If not, what type of visa do I require for the Schengen visa for my transit. How I can apply for the same?  I tried to find slots in German consulate but all slots are full before my departure date. If I don't get the Schengen visa, I cannot travel and will loose all the fare (since my ticket is a non-refundable ticket). Is there any other way I can tackle this situation.

I have both on stock: ATtiny861A-SU and ATtiny861-20SU.  But I can not find out any difference between them except 'In-System Programmable via SPI Port' available for 'A' version.  Could anyone tell me what is the difference between those two devices?  Thanks! I have updated my kubuntu 14.10 to kubuntu 15.04.

How to install with Wubi when it says "Could not retrieve the required disk image files"? I tried to install Ubuntu 12.10 with the Wubi installer while running Windows, because my PC does not accept my BootCD as a bootable medium.  But Wubi showed me this error:  Ubuntu-Installationsprogramm (X) Ein Fehler ist aufgetreten: Could not retrieve the required disk image files Weiter Informationen finden Sie in der Protokolldatei: c:\users\username\appdata\local\temp\wubi-12.10-rev273.log   What can I do, because I want to get rid of my Windows 7 and use the way better Ubuntu 12.10?  Thanks for your huge answer, now my next problem after trying to install wubi with the .iso is, that the same error shows up again and i am not shure which part of the errorreport you need.

Overloading getter and setter causes a stack overflow in C# Expected value of a non-negative random variable Robocall claiming to be IRS saying they are about to sue - Is it legit? We got a recorded call with a message claiming to be from the IRS.  It said they were giving final notice and preparing to file a lawsuit against us.  In our case, the message went to voicemail so the end was cut off, but it seemed like a scam all the way. (We don't have any pending problems with the IRS as far as we know.)  The question was whether this is a known scam? I'm attempting to make an elevation profile from a DEM in ArcMap using the Interpolate Line tool.  I've done this before, and it has worked great--basically I just draw a line with Interpolate Line, then click Profile Graph to get the elevation profile.  However, for some reason, it's not working now: when I draw out my line, nothing shows up on the map.  I don't get a line, and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.  I've searched online for an answer, but to no avail.    Any tips? A quark star is a hypothetical type of compact exotic star composed of quark matter.

That means that there exists an element $g$, say, such that every other element of the group can be written as a power of $g$.  This element $g$ is the generator of the group.  Is that a correct explanation for what a cyclic group and a generator are? How can we find the generator of a cyclic group and how can we say how many generators should there be? I have to show by induction that this function is a multiple of 8. I have tried everything but I can only show that is multiple of 4, some hints? The function is $$5^{n+1}+2\cdot 3^n+1 \hspace{1cm}\forall n\ge 0$$, because it is a multiple of 8, you can say that$$5^{n+1}+2\cdot 3^n+1=8\cdot m \hspace{1cm}\forall m\in\mathbb{N}$$.
