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.

Snit
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.

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

Melzzzzz
Slimer is not Linux user ...

Snit
Based on...???

Melzzzzz
Based on fact that he is not using Linux?

Snit
You mean currently? Maybe... maybe not... but he clearly has been using it recently.

Haven't noticed...
