Hello there

I have a somewhat special problem here. I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 on an xps 15 9560 running proprietary nvidia drivers. My issue is that I have a mad catz rat3 mouse which needs special...

So I tried getting educated on the matter of thermals and how I can get rid of the fan noise, you too are reporting. Turns out not even a single smartass wanted to school me so I eventually ended up...

Any other developments here?

So I just restarted my machine to get some work done on Ubuntu and I fired up psensor right away to get an idea of how quickly things heat up and most of the temps were between 50-60 degrees which...

Yeah, psensor is how I know that my thermals are at 50 on Linux. It won't give me fan speeds tho unless I have i8kutils installed

So I've noticed that Windows manages to keep my laptop under 30 degrees (C) while I'm just browsing and dealing with documentation. During that time my laptops fans are either completely off or...

Hi everyone, here I am again with another problem that I hope you can help me out with.

When I close my laptop lid, nothing happens. I tried this already and I found some other posts about the...

Actually, this is amazing. I'm still downloading the Xubuntu iso but meanwhile I installed Chrome and everything is fine now... CSS...

So I just bought an Acer Es15 (aka ES1-531) and I knew that a dual core 1.6GHz CPU will suck but this doesn't seem like normal sucking. It has an Intel Celeron N3505 CPU, 4GB RAM and a hard drive, no...

nope...

well... it is something. Thank you, I will try to find one of those flash drives to compare, if you are right I can tell my client she can feed the flash drive to the trash can (what she knew all...

I have a SanDisk 16GB USB flash drive and it has stopped working. The first problems looked like this:

Plug it in
