Anyone know how to explain this process in simple turns?

Installed Ubuntu 23.04 on an old Dell Latitude E6430 laptop. This laptop has both a legacy and uefi mode.Selected the uefi mode to install the os which went without any issue but boot mode keeps...

I removed some software like Libre Office from my install and now think I'm missing some dependencies. Is there a cli imputs or program to check this?

Is there the ability to select what I want during the install process?

With this new release, how do I configure it to show the MATE 1.24 desktop environment in the top taskbar rather than the Menu listing?

Using Ubuntu LXLE LTS and would like to switch to the MATE 1.24 desktop environment. The only way it seems at present is to download the source and compile it myself. What file from the link below...

I meant the video is stepping and the audio is out of sink. Seems mkv files work fine when played or copied in Windows. Other formats like avi and mpeg4 have problems. When I use a video converter...

Is there a distro of Ubuntu that'll give me the old Gnome look shown in the attachments? The current version of Mate just shows one label.

Which Ubuntu distro has the Appz, Places and System icons on the top taskbar? Does it have the software to prevent the video tearing you get on YouTube? Thanks.

Yeah, I had to do a format using a Windows machine since i couldn't get Ubuntu to do it. It did show the Trash-1000 folder. Now I can't get files to finish downloading to the flash drives. I think...

I've tried deleting files on numerous flash drives, but Ubuntu doesn't show the new free space. Just shows what was there before. Why is that?

I hate these timeline video programs. They're too complicated to use. Tried "mkvtoolnix? but of coarse there's no instructions on how to use it. That's what I love about linux. After you install it,...

Still not seeing how to use this app for joining. Just want to join clips from the same original file. Does Vidcutter do this or not?

It's easy to figure out how to use the cut feature in Vidcutter but I can't find any instructions for how to join video clips. Anyone know how?

My goal is to find a terminal command or program to just increase a video file's volume without re-encoding the whole file. Then I can play the file using a media player on my TV.

The additional drivers window just shows a manually installed driver. Should I install this "nvidia-340" driver?

I'm using Ubuntu Mate 18.04 64-bit. Is there a way to disable the fancy fade in and out effects? Had that ability in Windows and it makes a big difference in performance.

Don't know what the nouveau driver is? Here's the command output:

Downloaded a ppa for the nvidia drivers. Have an nvidia x settings icon but it won't open. Below is what I have now.

Anyone know the command sequence to fix video tearing on an nvidia card?
