Marek NovotnyHe is as incompetent as The Flying Spaghetti Monster. If Steve Carroll has 'a.doc' open in a program such as emacs and The Flying Spaghetti Monster wants to change its name to 'd.pdf' via a hot key while installing a new DE, Steve Carroll's method might be OK. Do you have a MCSE certification?

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.
Ahahahahhahahah. Try Manjaro, you have proprietary there on install ;)
We'll have to make a video of Slimer installing dkms, creating a new initramfs, adjusting grub and blacklisting Nouveau and then installing nvidia. Would be fun to watch him back that out. If he thinks Ubuntu is hard he needs to go back to Windows.
All those steps are automatic on Debian.
I thought Ubuntu was a derivative of Debian.
Ah yes. It is indeed based on Debian. -- Marek Novotny https://github.com/marek-novotny
