BRMBU's questions

I do presentations for educational courses (university, college, schools). With many slides, lots of videos and pictures.I had been using WPS presentation software (kingsoft) on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS; since it allowed me to insert videos. As of now whenever I insert a video or a picture it hangs. I need to reboot the software. This issue persists despite updating the software or reinstalling the software with the latest update

Is there any other software which can

• Be installed on the Linux laptop (free version or open source)
• Has inbuilt slide transitions
• Can insert videos (2 min - 7 min)
• Can handle large pictures
• Has some learning tools or videos for initial hang of the software.

P.S. I have tried using Latex Beamer but I am not sure if videos can be inserted and slide transitions are available. TIA

My dell system is running with UBUNTU 14.04. Till recently I didn't have a problem with the usb drives. Now when I insert a pendrive or a hard disk, it doesn't mount nor does it show in the file system. I have to go to disks and then mount it. If I do this and plug the drive into a Windows system, it shows that the drive is full and inaccessible.

This is the error I get every time I start my system. I have just upgraded from Ubuntu 15.10 to 16.04 around a week ago.

I have a Dell Inspiron 15R with Intel® Ivybridge Mobile Graphics. I upgraded to Ubuntu vanilla and the latest version (16.04) few days back. Each time I close the laptop lid with the power source plugged in, and reopen it, a blank screen appears. A forced restart using the hardware button is necessary at this point. If the lock screen is activated, after a time it goes black. Even when on plugged on or on battery, if unused or locked, the same happens and a manual reboot is required for it to start. The CPU is running but I cant get to the login screen
