    True, both of you: the Klein bottle is indeed there, but the "there" isn't there - the problem is, some subset of screensavers, I suspect those inherited from the Gnome-screensavers library, is no...

    [SOLVED] Re: Ubuntu 16.10 no such device, grub rescue

    If you type grub rescue > ls (hd1, msdos4), I'll bet you see it formatted as ext2, which indicates it is your Linux partition. Knowing that, you can follow the rest of the instructions you found.

    [SOLVED] Re: Invalid Filename Extension

    That's an older file, superceeded by a new one. If you open /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/' you'll see two 20auto-upgrades files with different extensions. The newer one is in use, older is ignored.
