Can't connect bluetooth mouse

This suggests the device might be specific to Windows or require a different driver. You should check if the mouse supports Linux and try connecting it there, or consider using a USB adapter that works across both systems.
The command `uname -r` displays the kernel version number. It tells you which specific release of the Linux kernel your system is using, such as "Linux 5.15.0-86-generic". This helps identify the software stack and can be useful for troubleshooting or compatibility checks.
I need to use F12 to access the boot menu and choose Ubuntu for a smooth start. Directly turning on the PC and booting into Zorin triggers an error. The note mentions that Zorin remains functional, so it’s not critical, but I’m curious about the cause or how to fix it.

If it has, you can try enabling it with systemctl --user enable pulseaudio and then start it with systemctl --user start pulseaudio. Also, note that you have the same memory usage as me—do your sensors function properly?
