Install on sda would likely be BIOS, as it was originally installed on older hardware which afaik did not have UEFI. Fstab says `# /boot/efi was on /dev/sda2 during installation` though...

When 20.04 came out I bought a new ssd and installed the OS on that without touching the partitioning settings during install, while I kept my old ssd with it's home/user folders in the machine and...
I just tried on Chrome Version 81.0.4044.122 (Official Build) (64-bit), it allows choosing the search engine as before.
In a nutshell, using the desktop space for anything but looking at your wallpaper is no longer supported in current versions of gnome / nautilus.
There is an extension that attempts to re-create...
I must wonder how that ISP feels about a smart tv or a smartphone...
Huh? Android is very explicitly an open source project - which means that OEMs are free to modify and use it in their products.
An observation: increasing the resolution from what the game auto-selected to native 1920x1080 had no detrimental effect to the frame rate, if anything it increased slightly. Turning the detail...
nvidia-138?? Surely that is not the latest driver? Current long-lasting branch being 375, afaik. Anyhow, I obviously have the proprietary driver installed, as I said so in the first post.
I found this: http://support.feralinteractive.com/docs/en/alienisolation/latest/linux/faqs/#i_linux_graphics_drivers
Since I have the gtx560, which I believe is "5xx series", that might be the...
I'm trying to figure out what would cause poor performance in the game Alien: isolation, I'm seeing only 30-50 fps in the game - with lowered resolution and all graphics settings either 'low' or...
How about https://scratch.mit.edu/? I understand this is used in some schools that offer programming for the smaller kids.
Excuse my ignorance but what do you mean by "USB keys"?
Samsung's web site isn't too clear on what drivers to download, and I found two different versions there - 1.00.29 and 1.00.37_00.99, and with the latter version everything "just worked". Marking as...
Hello,
I connected a Linux Mint laptop to a new Samsung M2070W printer, it shows as expected with lsusb, launched the Printers app to add/configure it, and it seems to be recognized OK, but adding...
I have a Wacom Bamboo Pen & Touch, it's maybe a little small and not for serious / professional use, for me it's been just what I wanted, does what it says on the tin and not expensive either.

If you write a program that generates a file called something.txt and writes "abc" in it, it will become a file containing the characters abc in it. It's just that and not in any "language".

If you have ye olde tape recorder at hand, there are ham/sstv packages for ubuntu that you might have success with, such as http://users.telenet.be/on4qz/qsstv/manual/_t_x_s_s_t_v.html ?
Old post but unanswered so I'll have a go.
I'm assuming you're talking about the lighttable mode, where you're looking at the thumbnails. Scrolling the mouse wheel changes the zoom, about 200...
One example of a "basic operation" requiring CLI I've encountered is configuring the buttons on a wacom stylus & tablet and doing that through the terminal really isn't trivial. You're on KDE, afaik...
worked here. I got confused by the screen lock at first.... :D
I work with industrial process control systems and hardware from decades ago is still around, early versions of Damatic systems that I still see here and there are from early 80's.
I saw 286 / 386...
Here, your graphical desktop session is a 'user', and each terminal window is also a 'user'.
Maybe there's just something (!?) running that's eating up your cpu time. Do you see anything with high cpu% in
top? What does
uptime this return?
It is a nuisance that smb is what is available without the user installing any other software and through nautilus - and it doesn't seem to work so great for anyone.
