Hello

It's been a while - I had Ubuntu running on an old laptop (dual booted with Vista to set the time in context).

I now have a Lenovo Yoga 510-14AST and am growing tired of Windows 10 (I...

what I can't quite figure out is which:

1. Which config file is setting the splash / login screen as there seems to be more than one; and

Thank you!

It's changed the splash screen at boot and shut down but the xubuntu / xfce login screen is still there.

Happy with being at the halfway point but would like to sort the login screen...

Hello

I recently installed Lubuntu on my laptop after a few minor but annoying issues with Xubuntu.

I've got Lubuntu set up as I want it but want to remove the Xubuntu login and splash screens....

Hello all

After too much fiddling, I thought I'd ask here.

My network manager applet has disappeared from my indicator panel since upgrading from 15.04.

Can anyone tell me how to get it...

For some reason after a few switches off and on, it appears to have fixed itself.

Hello

As the title suggests, I had a power failure halfway through using the command. Now I can't connect to the Internet to complete it (either wireless or with Ethernet - although the lights...

I finally bit the bullet - and reformatted the drive in question and installed Xubuntu 14.04 in the place of Ubuntu 13.10.

It meets my needs and the old laptop is purring like a kitten and in...

I think I'll just keep it simple and delete sdb5 and extend sdb7 into the free space - everything I needed from sdb5 is backed up anyway and I haven't really done anything with the Xubuntu install on...

Hello

I had some problems with ubuntu 14.04 in that it would just hang after entering my password. To solve this, I decided to install xubuntu to replace the installed ubuntu (to dual boot with...

I've gone through that routine and it still doesn't work. It's a pain because I don't know enough to extract the system information for someone wiser than I to diagnose the fault.

Hello

I've been using ubuntu for about 4 years and have never come across this problem....

I have an old dell Inspiron 1720 dual booted with Ubuntu 14.04 and vista. I haven't used the laptop...

I have a dell inspiron - I just plug my USB HDD in and it pops up as a little button on the left.

That probably doesn't help much......

I'm by no means an expert on Wifi but this looks a bit like your problem

I gave up with my iPod and Ubuntu quite early on (10.04 I think). I've kept a partition with windows in it and my music library sits on an NTFS partition accessible from Windows or Ubuntu. It's...

I'm stumped too - thanks for your help though.

I can always wait for 14.04 ;-)

it does but the one I want is the one that's already selected .... very, very confused :confused:

I've already tried that - this is the place where Ubuntu thinks I have a UK keyboard but I actually have a US one for example shift+2 gives @ and not "

Click the Ubuntu logo in the top left of your screen and type Disks. Open Disks and it'll give you a summary of how each disk on your machine is partitioned - generally the partitions that aren't...
