Performing and in-place upgrade can leave cruft and outdated settings and files in place. Since I only install LTS I always perform a clean install. I have had problems in the past with in-place...
I used to do that but felt like a bug tester after awhile. I now stick to LTS releases so I might re-install once every 5 years or something. Even when a new LTS comes out I like to wait for it to...
Like others here I don't add a PPA unless it is well vetted first. I think the only one I have added at the moment is Handbrake (stebbins). My philosophy is to stick with official repositories as...
There are some Gnome extensions I use that make Gnome much easier to use:
Applications Menu - Gives you a nice category/favorites menu in the upper left of the top bar
Dash to Dock - Give you a...
I usually open two file manager windows side-by-side. One window is open to the location on my Windows drive and the other open to the location I want to copy the files to on the Linux drive then I...
What version of Ubuntu are you running?
Can you test the controller on another machine to make sure it's working? I just plugged my Xbox controller in and started playing Steam games. I didn't...
Double-click the word. If you hold down the CTRL key you can double-click/select multiple words. If you hold down the SHIFT key you can select the first word then the last word to select a bunch of...
Yup, you have one physical hard drive on your computer.
The system specifications for Lubuntu 16.04 are:
System Requirements
Lubuntu is a good operating system for many old computers, but not for all of them. Some computers have too little horsepower...
It sounds like you may have had one drive with two partitions. Allowing Ubuntu to format the drive and install Linux would have removed both partitions and re-partitioned the drive.
From the Dash...
Thank you for the replies. I guess I will use Nautilus since it seems to work fine. I would use Rhythmbox since it's nice to see everything by artist/album/genre but it tends to crap out in the...
Running Ubuntu 16.04 and Clementine 1.2.3.
I am not able to transfer songs to my LG G4 running Android 6.0. Rhythmbox can do it and I can do it from the file manager. The LG shows up as a device...
Most of that just sounds like developer market speak. Or I just don't understand what it means. Maybe on a phone it would work well. I need to get my hands on an Ubuntu phone one of these days.
That's nice and short. I'll had that to my script notes.
Thanks.
Yeah, read a bunch of those. It was more a philosophical question. What's the point? Why would anyone spend time developing them? What do they offer that a bookmark doesn't? They seem completely...
That's interesting. No, it's a desktop. Ubuntu 14.04.
I disabled some extensions that seems to have fixed it: Unity websites integration and Unity desktop integration
Also, I think they only...
I'm not getting the point of webapps. I have decided to switch back to Firefox. I go to YouTube and get: "Would you like to install YouTube..." ... Um, I'm already watching YouTube. Same think...
I found a script that works:
CODE:
#!/bin/bash
find "$1" -type f -iname "*.ape" -print0 | while read -d $'\0' song
do
output=${song%.ape}.mp3

I installed Soundconverter 2.1.4 from the following source:

Well, getting closer. Now I get:
"GSstremer encountered a general stream error."
At least that helps me look up more information.
Command-line reports the following:

I upgraded Soundconverter to 2.14 but I cannot convert APE audio files. I get the following error:
"Python (v2.7) requires to install plugins to play media files of the following type: APE tag...
I just downloaded it from the Plex website. Currently running Plex Server Version 0.9.11.7, though it shows I have an update available.
Things have really improved since my Red Hat 6.0 days for sure. :)
If you run into any issues please let us know.
It comes with "nvidia-settings" which gives you your basic settings. You can enable overclocking. I haven't done it for awhile so I would have to look it up.
In Linux you only ever download...
