Or, on 24.04 open System Settings>System>Users. To add a new user you will have already got this far and know how to unlock this part of the utility with the password set when the system was first...

My simple minded understanding is that the boot loader loads Linux on tty1 and as stated above the gdm3 login screen. Then when we login the system switches to tty2 where the desktop environment and...

It would be nice to know what version of Ubuntu you are using and what version of Ubuntu you were using when you used this drive as a backup?

Does the Disks utility see this drive and show the...

The -d switch will upgrade Ubuntu to the development version. Ubuntu 24.04 is no longer a development version. So, it is not possible to use the -d switch to upgrade 22.04 LTS to 24.04 development...

I am not educated enough to understand all that the boot repair summary says. But it seems to me that you have Windows in BIOS/Compatibility mode (Legacy Windows) and Ubuntu in UEFI mode.

You do not say which version of Ubuntu you are on. I have used Ubuntu 23.10 and am now using 24.04 LTS I have had no problems using system settings>screen display to either join or mirror an second...

The official upgrade path from Ubuntu 22.04 LTS to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS will not be open for another 6 months, or there about. At that time Software Updater will offer an upgrade to the latest LTS...

My desktop machine stopped working. I needed a replacement. I like the look of what Starlabs are offering and I would have brought one of their laptops if my choice had been in stock. In the end I...

I would not be using Ubuntu or Linux if I had not read in computer magazines these words: "Ubuntu for Humans."

If the developers of Linux distributions had not worked on various desktop...

What is the code name of 24.10? Two words beginning with the letter O. In the past I have changed the addresses in the sources.list file as soon as I have known the new code name. For a few days -...

Have you tried entering the BIOS/UEFI settings utility and disabling the hardware that you think is faulty? I do not think that those messages are coming from the Grub bootloader. The motherboard...

I like to run the development version and set it up the way I like to see how things work out before I upgrade. It was my original intention to switch from 20.04 LTS to 22.04 LTS but a Windows app...
