I don’t know if it’s the same in Ubuntu Studio, but in Ubuntu and derivates you can launch sudo software-properties-gtk or sudo software-properties-qt from a terminal. In the window that appears, choose the tab ‘Additional Drivers’. There you can choose the Nvidia graphic drivers you prefer among older and newer versions. Good way to roll back.

Apologies if this was obvious 🙏

Great to hear! All’s well that ends well :)

Now I understand, thank you for the explanation!

They can be useful, used “in negative”. In a physics course at an institution near me, students are asked to check whether the answers to physics questions given by an LLM/GPT are correct or not, and why.

On the one hand, this puts the students with their back against the wall, so to speak, because clearly they can’t use the same or another LLM/GPT to answer, or they’d be going in circles.

But on the other hand, they actually feel empowered when they catch the errors in the LLM/GPT; they really get a kick out of that :)

As a bonus, the students see for themselves that LLMs/GPTs are often grossly or subtly wrong when answering technical questions.

Thank you for this comment. So Unbound does only DNS caching, without really resolving? I think I’ve completely misunderstood its purpose.

I’m starting to think that I’ve misunderstood what Unbound does. I thought I’d be a replacement for a DNS resolver (like CloudFlare). But from the replies here I’m starting to think it isn’t?

Thank you for the warning! I’ll know it’s expected then :) In my case I’d like to use it more or less independently of the network I’m in, that’s why I’d like to take a single-machine approach.

Thank you, I see the advantages of a network approach. In my case it’s just two laptops in my network, and I’m also thinking of the case when I’m using the laptop in some other networks.

Can you try the icanhazpdf hashtag on Mastodon? https://c.im/tags/icanhazpdf

X1 Carbons of several generations have been notorious for their Thunderbolt defects, which appear after a while. For instance this or this (sorry for the Reddit links), and there are others related to connecting to screens. Right these days I’m dealing with the Thunderbolt-charging defect in my Gen 9. Luckily still under warranty.

Best of luck with your problem! I suggest you use your warranty if still active (and better with on-site assistance than sending the thing).

Thank you for the vendor names! I’ll check out if they offer anything with stylus.

Re: support, what I mean is driver support.

I agree on your general point, but it also means that they produce OEM drivers that only work with a specific OS version. If you update, then you’re on your own regarding those drivers. This is the case for instance for some touchpad/trackpoint or battery custom drivers available for Ubuntu 20.04 on an X1 Carbon, but not later Ubuntu versions.

Ah that’s bad. I eventually managed to try out Wayland in the 24.04 live session, and it doesn’t support my touch/pen-screen: "“Unsupported platform detected. Currently only X11 is supported”. So I hope future versions will still offer X11 where Wayland can’t work yet. Otherwise the situation becomes like for Windows, that a new OS version means you have to update hardware too…

Indeed that worked, thank you!. It was good to try; turns out Wayland doesn’t support my touch/pen-screen, so I’ll keep X11.

Yes, it turns out one can change session at login! Turns out Wayland doesn’t support my tablet, so I’ll stick with X11.

Thank you. This live USB defaulted to X11 for some reason, but I was able to change to Wayland after the session started.

It turns out Wayland doesn’t support my touch/pen-screen: "“Unsupported platform detected. Currently only X11 is supported”. So X11 it is.

lack of global hotkeys in Wayland, graphics tablet support issues, OBS not supporting embedded browser windows, Japanese and other foreign as well as onscreen keyboard support issues that are somehow worse than on X11, no support for overscanning monitors or multiple mouse cursors, no multi-monitor fullscreen option, regressions with accessibility, inability of applications to set their (previously saved) window position, no real automation alternative for xdotool, lacking BSD support and worse input latency with gaming.

All things that don’t matter to modern users.

Cheers! Great project.

Is there a link to the thing itself? Or a non-video presentation?
