This forum thread has a telling evolution, starting from "about ten minutes" for #Ubuntu 12.10 and "an hour maybe two" by 20.04? 🤣

Third attempt, it calls this round replacing #ubuntu and the manual partition page seemed to have things right, but I'm surprised an installer that takes so long has so little to say. /var/log/installer peeps a DEBUG now and then, but betrays no secrets. 52 minutes and counting, just passed probert.network and another flurry of udevadm empty queue successes.

Been a few months since I turned my ancient Alienware laptop into a #linux daily drive and so far, mostly, so good; no real complaints.
It has an #nVidia 770M in it, but I've been using the default #Ubuntu Nouveau graphics…

Research day means that I can ditch my corporate windows computer and work on my own machine, a penguin powered on of course. Feel like Sheldon Cooper when I can acctually do work the right way. #meme #memes #ubuntu

Hmm that was a fight.
Upgraded my webserver container to #debian trixie - easy (once I'd remembered how many nspawn setup worked).
Updated host Ubuntu VM - easy.
It reminds me it's still on #Ubuntu 22.04 and I should upgrade to 24.04 ...erm sure..
hmm, no networking...

Wer nutzt #protondrive und kann mir helfen, die s auf #Ubuntu Einzubinden?

Canonical is evil.
If I wanted to use nano, I suppose I might run something like "nanosudo"
BUT THAT’S NOT WHAT I RAN.
It only took me about 30 seconds of flailing before I noticed the garbage at the bottom of the screen.

Parody of the NVIDIA logo with distorted eye graphic and “NoVideo” text in bold. Caption reads, “when you install nvidia driver on linux,” implying humor.

I had been putting it off but I finally upgraded my #Linux laptop from #Kubuntu 24.10 (Oracular Oriole) to 25.04 (Plucky Puffin) and it seems like nothing was broken. 🎉

Q: I've got an ubuntu server installed on a mac mini (no probs) but the install broke and now I'm clueless on how to make the computer to start from usb stick! Anyone knows how to do it?

We had a system crash last week with BSOD, a critical process died. Shoutout to #ubuntu for being able to boot off a live USB and copy the licenses and programs. Still sucks having to reset up, but better than losing everything.

in the #jellyfin for #ubuntu (10.10.7) why would my Television library show only one series under Shows, three under Recently Added in Home and Suggestions, and yet appears to show all of my ./Television collection under Genres? Is there a trick to inform those other views?

Does #Ubuntu no longer provide a TEXT MODE install? Or is it because I'm trying the Desktop edition?

I had #Ubuntu installed with no network, but adding #UbuntuStudio installer caused problems so I tried their iso and once again it fails after curtin command install
ISO checks OK.

At 4 hours I left #ubuntu installer running and went to bed. This morning, at 16 hours, I killed the process. Trying again without entering the Live desktop but I do so WISH the devs had left SOME means to know why and where it fails.
This is why when folks ask me to help with their Windows machine, I gracefully decline.
