  1. Re: Want to enable TTY on ctrl+alt+Fn keys

    No dice so far. Only change I'm noticing is this moves my "active desktop" to F7 instead of F2, and F2 is now the same output as mentioned in OP, minus the snd_hda_intel part.

    name of display: :1
    dimensions: 3840x2160 pixels (602x341 millimeters)

    I built my last computer 10 years ago so if this one lasts another 10... I figure it's money well spent.

    Here's the "videoinfo" parts:

    I'm trying to figure out how to enable the [Ctrl] + [Alt] + [F(n)] TTYs on Ubuntu.

    I've been using Ubuntu as my primary OS since circa 2008 and have become pretty self-sufficient with finding...
  6. [SOLVED] Re: MOV playback broke on upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04

    True, but I don't mind missing the cruft; it removed a handful of packages I installed long ago that I never use anymore. I assume some cruft of some sort is what caused this in the first place; a...
  7. [SOLVED] Re: MOV playback broke on upgrade from 18.04 to 20.04

    Beautiful! Did an "apt purge" on it, which removed Gimp, Audacity, VLC, mpv, and a whole host of other stuff. Reinstalled Gimp, Audacity, VLC, and that re-installed ocl-icd-libopencl1 as a...

    Here's what I've got with those:

  10. [SOLVED] Re: Print working directory; ~ for $HOME?

    Hmmm... this doesn't seem to work now. But, the following code (which is now in my ~/.bashrc file) does:

    {
    MPWDTMP=${MPWDTMP/$HOME\//\~\/};
    MPWD=${PWD/$HOME/\~};
    echo $MPWD

    Hello,

  15. [ubuntu] Re: Differences between packages "ubuntu-mid" and "ubuntu-mobile"?

    Not for the iPod Touch - I don't think so, anyways. If it would work, you would need to use the one designed for the Babbage board, here of the releases for it. However, I have no idea how you would...

    I think all I need is a quick syntax example and I'll be set.

    This is possible... right?
  25. [ubuntu] Re: Differences between packages "ubuntu-mid" and "ubuntu-mobile"?

    Any guidance would be appreciated. It is a pain to have to setup the proxy every time I boot. (I'm using Back Track 3 until I find out what I need to install to get Ubuntu functional.)
