ok...Whats going on here:

I have a desktop PC with an i3 processor, which has Windows 7 dual-booting with Kubuntu 18.04.

All of that is pretty much irrelevant, except that I love being able to upgrade my OS when I feel...

Thanks for all the responses.

I did the silly thing, went to Gparted?, in Kubuntu, looked at what I thought was probably Kubuntu, deleted the rest (except Win7) and rebooted, to find that Grub...

I've been a beginner for 11 years.

I'm currently using Kubuntu 16.04 and have no problem with it, except that it seems to delay keyboard entry in Facebook, in that I enter a few characters and it...

Hi,

I recently upgraded from 14.04 to 16.04 in Kubuntu.

Dual monitors appear to work well, as before, but I can't drag a window from one screen to the other. It partially appears on the other...

I've posted to this thread at least once before, but I think it needs an update.
I switched to Ubuntu/Linux in October 2005. I still use Windows for some stuff, but Linux is the OS that handles my...

I have Kubuntu 14.04....I've never really wanted LTS, but this happens to be the latest I had on DVD. Can I upgrade to a later version simply. Kubuntu says they will have an update in July. 14.04 is...

I've responded to this thread before, but long ago.

I have my 10 year anniversary using Linux as my primary OS, in October this year.

I still use Windows, because my profession has software...

Installed RedHat in late 1990s... as an experiment. Managed to get an internet connection. Didn't try again 'til 2001 when I bought a RedHat disk set again at a swap meet.

October 2005 I tried...

In Australia, Australia is generally shown at the bottom middle of the map with Europe upper left, Nth America upper right..etc.

I just upgraded from Lucid to Maverick and had the power button disappear (not appear) after upgrade.

Killing the panel fixed it, but it has happened before...probably after last upgrade. Last...

I did that when I first got the modem/router, to get a clearer line between my laptop and the antenna. It didn't cause problems in previous releases of Ubuntu, and it's fine in Windows. That's why I...

Hi all,

Haven't posted or been reading for a while.

Up until now my Wireless has been flawless. I'm not sure if it's Karmic or my hardware. Hoping NDISWrapper will provide the solution.

I...

I was silly enough to delete my Jaunty partition, had the disk in the drive to use Gparted, so I reinstalled Jaunty and upgraded to Karmic and it's smooth as silk....so far.

Normally I would have...

I upgraded, using the Update button in the Update Manager, and it "just works".

Your mileage may vary, but with millions of different hardware specs out there, I hardly find that surprising.

When I first tried the Ubuntu LiveCD (Hoary 5.04) the theme was one of the reasons I switched from XP.

It was refreshingly new.

I like Xubuntu's blue, but after a while it's boring. The Mint...

Not correct. As mcduck says, above, you don't get beans for posts in certain sub-forums.

Welcome, -Cheyenne-

I'd be begging Bill Gates to adopt me and at the same time planning this company called International Business Machines.

And you couldn't see the humour in his post? You really need to get a life and stop taking yourself so seriously.

What, so a FREE release of the not-yet-released brand new Windows was more popular than Linux???

I mean, even I have a copy of the RC of Win 7, but I haven't installed it yet.

What is your...

I'm in the same situation, but for me, I think it's because of something I HAVE installed, rather than something I HAVEN'T installed, because YouTube was no problem previously, but now it won't play...

Thanks :). That gave me a good laugh!! :)

I have to disagree strongly here. I've used Ubuntu on this notebook since I got it, and recently installed Xubuntu-desktop. It's noticeably lighter. My system monitor shows it to be noticeably...

I think that's a point missed by a lot of posters here, and in comments to his blog.

But, he is using the term Ubuntu as if he's using the desktop version, rather than UNR, and comparing it with...
