1) Installed Ubuntu Gnome 17.04 2) Upgraded to the proprietary NVIDIA drivers 3) Noticed a symbolic link issue with the NVIDIA drivers 4) Followed instructions to fix it from an Ubuntu group 5) The "fix" screwed everything up 6) Reinstalled the whole operating system out of a lack of interest for fixing the issue by hand (without deleting the two other partitions) 7) 10 minutes later, back to square one with all of the settings intact. 8) Awesome.

Go back to Windows.

Doomsdrzej
Nah.

Hey, Marek was TRYING to "advocate" Linux. LOL!

Marek Novotny
Correct, asking trolls to leave is better for advocating linux.

Doomsdrzej
People like me - whether you like it or not - will be a lot more effective than people like you at advocating Linux.

Not sure that is true... but asking Linux users to stop using Linux is CLEARLY horrid "advocacy".

-- Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel somehow superior by attacking the messenger.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.
