You mention two of your Ubuntu PCs. Do you have more PCs that the DVD plays on? If DVDs played before on a PC and now do not, most of the time I suspect the DVD player hardware, instead of...

The answer is yes. If by backdoor someone can get into your Ubuntu/Linux system. If your system is only protected by the password, it only takes someone a few minutes to change the password and get...
The most common cause of this problem is the caps lock key. If it is accidentally turned on when inputting password/credentials then you get this problem.
Firefox lasted for 4 days since I cleared cache and cookies. This time it seemed to be a complete freeze of firefox except the mouse would move the page up or down. Video would not work this time...
I will try that and report back in a few days. Thank you.
I am on Ubuntu 20.04 running the unity favour. I am using it on a Dell Precision with a 4th gen I7, 16gb ram and m4800 graphics card. Firefox is on 110.0.1 version. Not snap version.
For quite a...
Question becomes why install an old version and then download and install a newer version, when you can do the same thing faster by installing a new version first. 14.10 is so old now that a direct...
How old is your Linux PC? Unless it is as old as XP, there is a good chance(100%) that XP will not have the hardware drivers for it, XP cannot work the computer. I have a Ubuntu 4.10 disk. Can...
With Win 10/11 you can install something like an app, it is still Windows but it allows you to use some of Ubuntu, think it is called WSL. If you do not want Windows then need to download 20.04 or...
The easiest way to have NOTHING means NOTHING is to disable wired and wireless setting, this will prevent everything to do with the internet, no downloads, no cookies, no browsing. If you only want...
I would think hardware problem, probably the connection between sound card and speakers. Have you tried to isolate it if just one speaker(right or left) will work? Sounds like a loose wire or...
Don't even have to worry about the common criminals. Worry about the idiots that leave databases wide open on the net with all your info available to look at. They do seem a bit better now, have...
Make sure Windows Fast Boot is turned off. Fast Boot puts Windows in hibernation mode and touching Windows at that time is bad for Windows and the files on it. Ubuntu probably sees Windows in...
Very easy to do. One way is to partition your drive and install second Ubuntu(or any OS) and set it up any way you choose. Can also copy any data from one Ubuntu to the other, so they both match. ...
Would try with Chrome instead. Google does something so that only their products work well together. Only have chrome for videostream app that seems able to play/convert easy to chromecast. Other...
I have a Dell laptop. When trying to install, I had same problem. With some googling, found that I had to enable booting from a USB in bios/UEFI. Most other laptops, just had to plug in USB/DVD...
Would also check and make that Firefox's DRM content setting is still checked/enabled.
Why not install 20.04? It is supported for 4 more years, 21.04 is only supported for 9 months before needing to upgrade.
A flavour is an ISO for install that has a specific desktop and programs, you can't update to a flavour. You can only install desktop and/or programs from a flavour to your system.
Think unity remix is more of a separate related distro, compared to the action of just installing unity desktop. Remix might require downloading ISO and installing to drive.
Do not think you can 'update' to a different flavour, gnome to Kubuntu. Can install a desktop, did clean install of 18.04, stuff was broken in gnome, fixed everything by installing unity desktop and...
If you can at least double the ram, then Lubuntu 18.04 should run if you take it easy(might be already out of support). If out of support, will need to try Puppy, Tiny, or Dam small Linux or google...
Don't use Aliexpress but do use Ebay. Have found most stuff is as they say and works. Found that cheap kitchen gadgets are usually much cheaper directly from China than after they go though...
Off hand would say it is an ad site. Just tried it and seems okay, but using a VPN with ad blocker and ad blocker/anti tracking extensions in browser. They probably changed ad site recently. If...
Think you can only make a bootable Windows USB from Linux with either mkusb or woeusb, do not think any other ways will work for windows. If computer came with Win 10, can replace with same version....
