  1. Re: I cannot install the nvidia proprietary drivers on Ubuntu. What do I do?

    Sounds like you installed the drivers from the .run file provided by NVIDIA. If you have a copy of it, simply run:

    sudo ./nvidia-installer.run --uninstall

    Or grab the latest one from nvidia's...

    [gnome] Re: Display Won't Wake

    Mind reproducing the issue, taking note of the exact time it occurs at, restarting gdm3, then getting us a copy of:

    1) sudo lspci -v > lspci.txt
    2) A copy of /var/log/syslog
    3) A copy of...
  3. [SOLVED] Re: lost all write access; lost sudo. "unable to resolve host" error

    Hey thre,

    Sounds like your file system may be corrupted. Assuming you're using an ext* filesystem we can force an fsck to run on reboot by:

    1. Restarting the machine
    2. Getting to the grub...
  4. Re: Cannot shut down or restart ubuntu 17.10

    No worries. The dmidecode commands were to get some information. What is the information with them? (they assume you have an internet connection). We probably can't get a straight up command that...
  5. Re: Cannot shut down or restart ubuntu 17.10

    Sorry about the spelling error. Did the dmidecode work? Let's get the output of it. I was hoping that if we get your HW, this can be something we can solve by installing the right drivers. The...

    Re: GUI-friendly Linux distro

    I'd say try out some live USB's for yourself to give them a quick spin. Personally, I've always just fell back to Ubuntu when I wanted a workable linux system without so many hassles (heh, I like...

    [ubuntu] Re: 17.10 poor performance in Gnome

    Any chance you can give this extension a shot https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/277/impatience/ ? To me, stock gnome3 feels a bit 'slow' but it's all subjective (and this may not be the issue)....
  11. Re: Cannot shut down or restart ubuntu 17.10

    Hi,

    There could possibly be something up with your hw's compatibility on 17.10's kernel. Did it used to work just fine on a previous Ubuntu release, and was this an upgrade? I'd suggest getting...

    [ubuntu] Re: What is going on with Skype?

    I'd recommend doing a purge of skype, clearing all settings (if your'e okay with that), and installing the latest one.
    You can find skype and purge it through synaptic, or if you prefer a command...
  13. [SOLVED] Re: Bash tab completion works only partially

    Hi,

    The tab auto complete functionality is controlled by the bash-completion package. Most likely, installing gnome altered its config files either in /etc/bash.bashrc or ~/.bashrc. Have a look...

    You can use http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/9496/looping-through-files-with-spaces-in-the-names with the 'find' command to locate them.

    I'm not familiar with theme development, but there...
  15. [xubuntu] Re: The generated cache was invalid? How do I fix this?

    Hi,

    Per https://github.com/numixproject/numix-icon-theme-circle/issues/639 this is more of a WARNING than an actual error indicating that the icon names have spaces. Unless you see a functional...
  16. [ubuntu] Re: Ubuntu 16 doesn't boot graphically and startx doesn't work

    Hi,

    It might've been the case you had the proprietary drivers installed, ran some udpates that includes a new kernel update, and the module wasn't recompiled for that new kernel.

    Can you let us...
