I'm looking at the nvidia and amd/radeon drivers in Linux and I haven't kept track or been following it lately.

Previously, nvidia (proprietary) drivers were best for having things 'work' but the...

That answer makes sense to me. :) I guess I could ask for help about a vpn application that doesn't work when I use the gnome on xorg session versus it working when logging with Ubuntu on xorg but...

Ah, that's it? I was using 'Ubuntu Gnome' so I guess I already was using Gnome with Ubuntu.

So, are they the same? Ubuntu on xorg = Gnome on xorg? I am just wondering why my program doesn't...

I knew all that. What's the difference between Ubuntu on Xorg and Gnome on Xorg?

I really tried to find the answers, searching the forum and then doing a google search.

Sorry, I can't find it/them.

So, here goes - the questions here.

I checked this thread but it didn't...

I am using Ubuntu (upgraded 17.04 to 17.10) and my gpu (if it helps to know) is a Nvidia EVGA GTX 750 card - I believe I'm using the proprietary driver.

My 22" monitor died so I am suck with using...

I will ask in a different way.

I am hoping someone will help a frustrated user. During an upgrade from 17.04 to 17.10, my keyboard shortcuts were changed and the right shift key is unusable.
...

first of all, forgive me for the poor punctuation. i cannot use caps or shift key and i had to delete languages i had installed because it would switch inputs when i don't want them too.

this...

maybe it's time to stop using it. it is just insane that it shows in the input settings, that you need to go to keyboard settings for the shortcuts but then the ones you need are not listed there. ...

No, it means that it's easy and should be obvious. Of course, Ubuntu keeps getting worse. HOW ON EARTH DO YOU MAKE IT DIFFICULT to find keyboard settings

you would think that input options would be easy - maybe ubuntu should look at windows because they don't have anything intuitive.

upgraded ubuntu 17.04 to 17.10 and it messed shortcuts so now i...

Okay. Will give it a try. Thnx.

Okay, thanks. Thanks for your patience. I've never taken too long to upgrade and most of previous upgrades have gone smooth or I did a fresh install.

I prefer to upgrade this time. At least,...

Are you saying there's no way to upgrade now?

So, my /etc/apt/sources.list file is no good any more? I have this, currently:
deb cdrom:[Ubuntu-GNOME 17.04 _Zesty Zapus_ - Release amd64...

I am trying to upgrade from 17.04 to 17.10 but can't because I get a message that stops early in the process.

Here are the messages:
Error during update
A problem occurred during the update....

Well, I need help on explaining it. I use libreoffice but seldom make formatting changes. It's worse when something 'changes' and you weren't expecting it.

Edit: 1) How about I ask the...

I'm getting tired of using Libreoffice....I also think it's a subject few are interested in so I'm wondering if I'll get any replies.

This is the 2nd time I've had Libreoffice in Ubuntu cause a...

You gave me the idea - to run Software Updates - obvious as it probably should be? :) There was a lot to update - required/requested a restart.

Using FF 37 now - in the Ubuntu 15.05b2...

I don't see any (other) similar (or relevant) posts. I'm just wondering if anyone has experienced the same thing. Firefox 37 continually crashes all of a sudden. I didn't update/upgrade...

Okay? Where is it? Link?

Ah. My main system (OS) at the moment is 14.10 w/ Gnome. However, I recently tried 'Gnome Classic' and kinda like it. I wish the appearance was more like that - when I was thinking about trying...

Thanks. Which DE (ver. of Ubuntu) do you use? Unity?

Yeah, it's not normal. Tell us, the model/version of the printer and what you mean by 'page after page' of garbage? How many pages and what is on the sheets? It sounds like a driver or...

Pleased with 15.04 (beta 2) so far - knock on wood!!! :) Installed Xubuntu 15.04-beta2 and installed a few apps so far. This is on one of my partitions - so it's not my 'work' OS. I just wanted...

I did most of it - this way. Except for the last part. I used Synaptic instead of the terminal and I'm using Xubuntu 15.04 (beta 2) so I didn't use the last step.

Not sure how you other guys...
