This is more of a remark about something strange that has happened to my MP3 collection rather than a help request.
I had a collection of MP3s stored on an external HDD. The HDD started making...
I wanted to swap hard disks between my Windows and Ubuntu, sending windows to the slower HDD and decided to install Noble Numbat while I was at it. This was a fresh new install from a USB drive. The...
I'm pretty much switched over from Windows, I still have it installed but I haven't used it since I got Ubuntu. I only installed Ubuntu because I found a spare HDD in a junk drawer and decided that I...
I also started with the snap version of Steam. I had just installed Ubuntu to see what was new in the Linux world and I was surprised to see Steam in the software store. Anyway I couldn't get...
I kinda want to remove it altogether. It came in when I installed (flatpak) lutris. I do most of my installing and updating through command line but I didn't want to mess up Lutris.
Hi there, welcome to the forums.
The same thing happens to me. I have to delete that file every time I install updates through Gnome software.
Ahh yes RST is Intel.
I don't know if this will apply to you. When I installed Ubuntu, I had to disable RST in the BIOS settings and set it to AHCI in order to get the Ubuntu installer to boot. If I try to boot Windows...

I was just reading up on this. The Ubuntu 24.04 release notes says:
So I guess we'll have to wait.
I do have a NVMe drive in the laptop but my Ubuntu is on a regular HDD. The NVMe drive is what my Windows is on.
Anyway I updated the BIOS. It was a suprisingly quick and easy process. I don't...

Does the shorter HDMI cable still work? I have a 10 meter HDMI cable that only works on some computers and not on others. My last laptop would only work with it if it was plugged into the charger.
No bad blocks found.
Thanks for the info, that's basically what most of the comments I found regarding that were.

Hello all.
Before I start, here's a link to the output of the Ubuntu Forums system-info script:
