Here we go. I got my laptop, which I want to be accessed from my PC. Both run Ubuntu 20.04. The same private WIFI network is used by both devices. How can I achieve that?
So my goal is to:
Got proprietary Nvidia drivers installed by Ubuntu itself, graphic card is recognized well by the system yet brightness control does not work when adjusted by either FN + F5/6 shortcut or by dragging brightness slider manually (keyboard shortcut triggers slider move as well, so it's heard by the system).
However: xrandr | grep " connected" | cut -f1 -d " " produces single output DP-2 and xrandr --output DP-2 --brightness 0.7 does change the brightness.
Googled a lot, tried various options, neither works to me. What can I do to make it work when dragging the slider as well?
I just wanted to shift to Ubuntu, while now I stick to Win10. Installation gives me an option to run it in parallel with Windows Boot Manager (or what's the name of that one?..).
My question: can I shift to Ubuntu in 2 steps? First - along with Windows, carefuly transfer all my data via cloud storage, ensure all password and sensitive info gets on Ubuntu and works well and then wipe Windows completely?
Will I be able to erase windows from Ubuntu? Would be be error prone or there is a reliable way to achive needed effect? May I mess both systems up?
Looks like hardware simply does not support such a command. Whenever I try start Ubuntu (> 16), it tries to boot and in 2 secs screen became totally black. Nothing helps.
Just don't tell me I need to reinstall it.
