Thanks for this but I'm not having any luck. I've created a script that works but can't seem to get the systemd service unit to run. Here's the file:

Hi
I’ve just installed the refind boot manager on Ubuntu Mate 18.10 and it works great for my needs. However, I would like to create a systemd shutdown script to ensure that refind-mkdefault is run...
Just installed 16.04 cleanly and I've come across a strange error. It boots to the log in screen but then seems to freeze and I can't place the curser in teh password box. If I type my password and...
It wasn't in autostart but adding it made no difference. Attempting to launch the applet from the terminal just returns this message
nm-applet-Message: using fallback from indicator to...
This disappeared after the last update. I'm still connected on my thinkpad but I can't seem to launch nm-applet or whatever it's now called. Any workarounds known for this? I see a bug has been...
Starting to think this is a problem with the indicator applet. Reverting to an old kernel made no difference. Has there been a recent update of the applet?
Using Unity and just noticed that the sound icon (or whatever it's now called) on what used to be the panel shows no volume. When I open it no devices are listed. However, sound is fine. Alsa...
I've been using miniDLNA for some time now to stream media to my Samusng Smart PVR. All works well generally, however, I can't get m4a files from itunes to play. On windoes I use a media server...
That explains it. Many thanks
For those who might be interested, I've just set up miniDLNA to work with a Samsung smart PVR. Seems to work flawlessly so far. Just followed these instructions:

Just a question I'm a little confused about. My openssh server works fine, I can get into my box without a problem. However, from what I can see there isn't a startup entry for it (bum, rcconf,...
I have a usb wireless stick with the above chipset. It uses the r8712u driver and works fine. However, when attempting to shutdown Ubuntu just hangs. It's fine without the usb stick so this is...
I have a Dell monitor with an integrated webcam. It's always worked out of the box with Ubuntu. That is, before 12.04.
lsusb output:

Mmmm, think that means I'll wait. Never did get to grips with Gimp
Ah well, patience is required then
After upgrading to the latest Ubuntu I can't seem to change the colour of the unity launcher (I think that's what the bar on the left of the screen is called). I've tried myunity and ubuntu tweak...
Thanks, sorted now
Just trying Ubuntu again after 18 months using Debian. Quick question: is it still possible to change the position of the buttons (close, minimise etc) to the right of the toolbar?
Thanks, works fine for me now
Just installed freenx on karmic and have tried to generate custom keys several times. The output always suggest that they've been created, but when comparing to the default keys it seems nothing has...
One more thing whilst I remember. If you use the vino server you wont be able to set the resolution of the remote desktop, it will display at whatever the native resolution is. If this is a problem...
It does run very fast and in karmic it works well, although you have to configure it first. i found that when installing it from synaptic it tried to pull in tightvnc. I wanted it to use the...
I do use ssh, but it isnt the best when you want to see a full desktop, and as I maintain my kids machines remotely that's what I need. NX is great when it works properly, but I've had mixed...
This does seem to work pretty well on karmic, and much faster than vnc. I've accessed it remotely by tunnelling it through ssh and its still quite speedy. On karmic the service also seems to start...
