[01:43] Eric_Adams: i want to remane the folder and all the files inside [01:46] I would suggest using something like rename for multiple files - https://linuxhandbook.com/rename-multiple-files/ [01:47] There may be a way to do both at the same time but I don't know myself.

I had set nomodeset, but late a lots change black to normal screen. Kubuntu say that is a friendly computing,this is not. Pride for own right work is important, the rest is to be a mediocre. oftware … for so much stupidity I better install gentoo or slackware, there is not so much circus as in its friendly computing the only [01:57] thing that attracts from ubuntu is its easy access to a lot of software [02:02] @NewUser3671152667, I might be able to assist with the driver issue. By chance do you have a laptop with both NVidia and Intel graphics? [02:42] No, only NVidia graphics, first time that happen that with the same computer. I have never had this problem with the same equipment before. in fact install kubuntu on the same computer 3 months ago, also installing the nvidia driver. The only problem was that when opening some applications, kwin broke but rebooted. I reported it here and gave me the bug and great idea of making a driver downgrade. I read that this solu [02:42] was his main answer to solutions here. Only downgrades. They want to go to 00.01 version of ubuntu and all software with downgrades as solution [02:47] came the update of the kernel 18.0.24 and everything was worse Until now install kubuntu of new and research and read the serious problems of ubuntu with the nvidia drivers === nathan is now known as nathan_ === nathan_ is now known as nathan__ === Sphinx is now known as iSphinx === himcesjf_ is now known as him-cesjf [06:36] @OerHeks> ubottu, carry out the recommendation offered by configuring the file, etc/default/grub and change de Libe … … … How to set NOMODESET and other kernel boot options in grub2 … Thread: How to set NOMODESET and other kernel boot options in grub2 … Tags: boot options, grub2, napic, nolapic,nomodeset … 1234567891011 … FirstLast … … P4man said:November 4th, 2010 … How to [06:36] options in grub2 … On some hardware configurations, you need to set some kernel parameters for ubuntu to boot or work properly. A common one is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot in to a black screen or corrupted splash, acpi_osi= to fix lcd backlight and other problems, and noapic and nolapic to work around various ACPI BIOS issues.

It may not apply to wubi, I dont know how to do it in wubi. … (update, see post #8 for the differences with wubi) … What are these options? … nomodeset … The newest kernels have moved the video mode setting into the kernel. So all the programming of the hardware specific clock rates and registers on the video card happen in the kernel rather than in the X driver when the X server starts.. This m [06:36] possible to have high resolution nice looking splash (boot) screens and flicker free transitions from boot splash to login screen. Unfortunately, on some cards this doesnt work properly and you end up with a black screen. Adding the nomodeset parameter instructs the kernel to not load video drivers and use BIOS modes instead until X is loaded. … Note that this option is sometimes needed for nVidia cards when using the default "nouveau" [06:36] drivers. Installing proprietary nvidia drivers usually makes this option no longer necessary, so it may not be needed to make this option permanent, just for one boot until you installed the nvidia drivers. … acpi_osi= … This option frequently solves problems with LCD backlight, fan control problems and misreporting of thermal events. What I understand it does (but corrections are welcome), is prevent the kernel from reporting to the bios [06:36] its any windows version the bios asks for. By default, the kernel pretends to be all windows versions, that way we are certain the bios executes all the code needed to initialize the hardware.

The black screen continue, graphic options up after 10 minutes with the letters that can not be configured with the nvidia panel, the fan rotates and the [07:01] time, the screen freezes frequently in the most basic tasks. Using noveau is the only patetic option. The bad work led to the decline of Rome, I ll try another distro, it is important to feel comfortable and not annoying constantly with a software.

No point in ranting here. === MANIAC is now known as Guest18250 [08:29] Your great mind thinks that failures are unique and are not shared and from different sources. Right?. Indeed Nvidia is a piece of shit optimized ecclusively for another piece of shit called Windows. The fact that something is wrong only justifies a mediocre person to be wrong too. Only ubuntu distros with KDE plasma desktop have this problem with nvidia cards. The composer of kde has problems to be synchronized with the [08:29] refresher rates that the Nvidia controller handles, causing loss of performance, cutting of icons, tearing, glitches and more.

A higher version number might be for a newer card and a lower number can be actually the newer driver. [09:08] Excuses ???, I did not say excuses, I said reasons. When do you want to correct the language of others but do not know the meaning of your own words lol [09:10] There is no good reason either. === Dragonslicer is now known as Dragnslcr === ubuntu is now known as Guest20260 === rfirmin is now known as beatbox === beatbox is now known as bridgingfail === juboxi is now known as jubo2 [12:59] Hey folks === Lord_of_Life_ is now known as Lord_of_Life === juboxi is now known as jubo2 [14:54] hi [14:55] can someone help how to mount iphone to kubunutu [15:12] !kdesudo [15:12] In KDE use « kdesudo » to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to.
