I bought a new Lenovo Thinkpad T14 Gen 1 with a nano sim card reader from the rear. I inserted a nano sim card but seems to be not detected. Can anyone tell me how to check whether WWAN is supported in this laptop, and how to check if sim card is detected. I am using Ubuntu 20.10.
I installed NVIDIA GT 1030 proprietary driver for Linux X86 64 bits in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. Since, Ethernet driver module becomes unstable; it does not start automatically after login or resume after suspend until I type $sudo modprobe r8169. I tried to fix the problem using $sudo systemctl restart network-manager.service, but in vain.
I went through the forums and learned that this module is unstable and the best way to get things work is to return back to r8168 driver. I blacklisted r8169 in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf and tried to compile r8168 for my 4.15.0 linux kernel, however it does not. I tried to install r8168-dkms package from the repository but does not succeed.
Now I have r8169 driver working but with Networking Interface initially UNCLAIMED. Any help is welcome.
I am using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and I ran do-release-upgrade -d but
the upgrade failed with an error message saying packages have unmet dependencies.
sudo apt-get -f install and sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade also failed to fix the errors.
Here is the full error message:

In addition, the GUI got somewhat strange.
What has happened?
I've an Ethernet connection to the Internet and I need to share it via Wifi with my other mobile devices. I followed up the instructions of setting up a hotspot in Ubuntu:
- I created a new connection via the network manager tool.
- I setup the security options: WEP 128 Encryption Passphrase.
- I turned on the hotspot using this new connection.
- My laptop connected successfully to the hotspot, however it didn't appear when I activated Wifi on the other device (Android devices).
What is the problem?
I have a lot of GB from Dropbox cloud storage space: can I use it to increase my Ubuntu One cloud storage space? And if yes, how?
I've just encrypted my home directory after installing ubuntu (i.e. my home directory was initially not encrypted then I used the ecryptfs-utils to encrypt it).
I am curious to know whether only the current content of home directory would be encrypted or all data saved further will also encrypted?
Thanks in advance.
I've recently installed Ubuntu Precise 12.04 LTS alongside with MS Windows 7 on my notebook Samsung 530U. I'm using both via dual-boot mode. I've no heating problem with MS Win 7 and the fan speed is normal even with long run utilization. However, when booting with Ubuntu and after short time, the PC got very hot and the fan was running at max speed. I installed a tool called Jupiter, I put it in "Power Saving" mode but no result.
Now, I avoid using ubuntu because I fear it'll damage my all new notebook.
