I've troubles since updating to version 20.04 LTS with

  • no search results and enter image description here

  • freezing desktop after about 1 hour. (I guess this could be a symptome related to no search results. Just a hint if helpfull.)

I've already researched for answers like this "Dash search gives no result" but I couldn't fix this issue.

Screenfetch tells me this:

                          ./+o+-       daniel@linux

What can be the solution to fix this (and is the issue because of the update)?

  • "freezing desktop after about 1 hour" — You are still using the Unity desktop with Compiz. I seem to have the impression that Unity (unfortunately) is not developed any more? Maybe you need to install a supported desktop environment? – Levente Feb 21 '21 at 10:42

If this is (so) the best practice solution I changed to GNOME 3.38.3. Now everything works fine. Live long and prosper Unity.
