So I'm a completely new Linux user; just switched over from Windows 10. I tried Mint first but after having this problem, I distro hopped over to Ubuntu, thinking it was just a problem with Mint, to no avail. Before hopping to Ubuntu, I tried just about every fix i could. None of them worked so I'm stumped. This has led me to wonder if my hardware just isn't made for anything other than windows. After h ...

I just switched to Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS Mate because Mint MATE was buggy and annoying.
Ubuntu MATE is a great distro but one thing I like better about Mint MATE was in Caja if you drag an item from the main panel into a folder in the tree view panel it would highlight the folder so you knew exactly which folder you were going to drop into.
Caja in Ubuntu Mate doesn't do this.
I have tried a few different ...

For the past few days. my laptop reboots randomly without warning and at different intervals. It only shows me a black screen and restarts the PC. I don't thinks it's the CPU temperature because the PC feels very cold.
I performed a memory and drive test on the BIOS and both of them passed. I suspect that it is related to the network card because every time the PC restarts randomly the wifi disap ...

This requires some doing, since the Workspace Switcher is set up by default on S ...
