  • Ubuntu Core 16 & Ubuntu Core 18 are intended for use without displays (ie. headless), Ubuntu 18.04 will be for a server or desktop so will have ascii text characters only (server) or graphics (desktop). There is no Ubuntu 18, server & desktop releases use a year.month standard; only specialist releases use year format such as Ubuntu Core 18 intended for IoT appliances/devices. Be specific with versions/releases of Ubuntu.

  • Well the HUD graphics are suppose to stay fixed on the screen but everything on the HUD scrolls to the left along with the network speed (the only thing that should scroll). Mar 6, 2020 at 20:46

What worked for me is changing term

export TERM=xterm-color

However this isn't permanent. I have to constantly run this command, even though i never reboot the server. A permanent solution is welcomed.
