( per Ubuntu 17.10 - Nvidea 1050 drivers can't install, crappy video performance.. :( ) strange thing is, it worked two days ago or so, but i didn't get an updates offer nor was there anything i could upgrade today.. unity nvidia xorg 17.10 share | improve this question asked Mar 17 at 11:58 SeductiveApps.com 16 4 eh, xorg does take screenshots, but it doesn't write the full screen worth of pixels to disk, just a square from x1,y1 to x2,y2 and the rest of the image is transparent nothingness. unity don't take screenshots at all anymore, and that happened around the same time. i swear i didn't touch any config files or anything ;) – SeductiveApps.com Mar 17 at 12:02 add a comment  |  up vote 0 down...

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 0 down vote favorite Hi My wife's laptop is running Ubuntu 12.04LTS and looking to update to latest 16.04 LTS, I have created a startup USB with latest iso file + performed data backup of the account :- 1) Can the system be updated directly from laptop downloads location OR does it need to be booted from USB ( SD card drive ?) to perform the update ? 2) The backup probably only contained account data and not any existing programs - when I do the system update - does the HD get erased and ONLY a system image installed i.e I lose all other programs ? 3) Is there a way to backup existing programs and re-install once the new system is installed? 4) Any other gotchas I need to prepare for ? updates backup share | improve this question edited Mar 17 at 14:49 user68186 14.4k 8 44 61 asked Mar 17 at 12:48 George Archer 6 6 closed as too broad by karel, pomsky, Eric Carvalho, waltinator, Elder G...
