I've tried every possible iteration of dpms and every possible acpi setting, but can't, for the life of me, turn off the screen on my ancient Dell Latitude, running 20.04 server.

Halp!?

When using rsync or scp to cp a file from my laptop running eoan to my server running bionic, my dns breaks; what I mean is, I cannot copy *any* files from my laptop to my server without all domain...

Thanks for the reply, @LHammonds... I upgraded from 18.04 to 18.10, lost all scp and sshfs, but still had ssh. I figured it was a quirk with 18.10, so I upgraded to 19.04.

I haven't completely...

I have a home server running on an ancient Dell and decided to upgrade to 18.10; I could ssh into the box, but neither scp nor sshfs worked. So, I upgraded to 19.04 and the issue persists. I can ssh...

Congrats... make sure to mark this thread as "solved."

Hmm... that's weird. Are you installing justcloud via a repo or from deb?

If she has access to another computer, she could burn a livecd to usb and see if that works; that, at least, would identify if it's an install issue...

Getting a bootable usb for Mac can be a pita because of what Macs need on it... even using OSX I was never able to get one working, but there are some great tutorials out there to help out.

go with ibjsb4's suggested links; excellent resources and advice.

Hmm... never noticed the broken pics; I don't know if there floating in the webs or not.

If you use this guide a walkthrough--although, perhaps you already have--you should be able to get it install, then run boot-repair from a livecd. If you've already tried those steps, could you be a...

For me, I couldn't set the refresh rates or it wouldn't work; I did, though, always have to set a default depth. In fact, setting a modeline also left everything "broke."


rsavage is an...

Not to be flippant, but the short answer is "maybe." There can be issues with nVidia cards & Linux, but there are plenty of walkthroughs around and really helpful mates on the forum.


Yup......

You could always try the trusty "sudo apt-get -f install" method and see if that resolves anything...

Have you tried temporarily setting your /etc/apt/sources.list to one of the other mirrors to see if that's the issue?

My wife got similar looking visual artifacts after dropping the laptop and cracking the screen... I know that's out-there, but maybe?

I'd agree, completely, with este.el.paz; having played with pretty much all releases on my iLamp, precise plays nicer than them all. I've been able to compile the nv driver from source on trusty and...

I'm on Utopic on a different machine and testing that there; testing for any PowerPC version extends well beyond the window for x86 or 64.


Completely valid point.


I can't even get Midori...

To help out with testing and reporting working/not working with the latest supported Ubuntu.


Sadly, Opera no longer supports PowerPC and that's the last version they made for it; it's...

Just an FYI, I'm also seeing shutdown issues; i.e., the "sudo shutdown -h now" command hangs the computer without powering down.

I've also been playing around with trying to find a lightweight web browser that doesn't make my flowerpot act like an actual flowerpot... Currently, I'm mainly using the last Opera able to be...

Completely agree with Morbius1; your default install should have set permissions at 755. Wonder what went wrong...

Sorry I didn't get around to checking this thread until now, stefanos3, are you still having an issue?

I've had issues with UEFI in the past, but not recently. You can login though, right; you just need to hit "Enter" to get the prompt?

Could you post your entire /etc/default/grub file?

Could you post your /etc/default/grub? I think it that may be the culprit...
