I've managed to install it a few times now and each time I run into a few deal breaking issues.Firstly, using the default nouveau graphics drivers I am able...

Hello everyone. I have an old Asus Aspire 3000 that has Windows XP installed. When I tried to install the version 14.04 from USB, Ubuntu skipped every step until the final screen such as login and password (both unknown). So the step of formatting Disk C was skipped also.Is it that the laptop is too...

I am unsure how to proceed. About 3 years ago, I bought a HP Pavilion (AMD Quad-core) desktop from Woot for my wife. She hated Win 8, so we put Ubuntu 12.04 (with Gnome flash-back [fall-back?]) on it and she was/is a happy camper.It is time to upgrade to 16.04 and I hope I can get that done without ...

Ever since upgrading from Ubuntu 15.10 to 16.04, I have experienced a lot freezes. These are freezes I could not recover from with ctrl-alt-F1; I had to hard reboot.

We spent many many hours in fron of our computers, and many of us don't rely in 3th party esthetic modifications. This is the aim of my review...
