What does that actually mean? Firstly, I'm not running 12.04, I'm
running 14.04. Secondly, all I know is that Ubuntu keeps telling me that
there's a problem, and I keep experiencing weird problems such as not
being able to access my LAN unless I reboot, and the system telling me
that various apps and services have ceased to run. Finally, today it
tells me that there was an unspecified system problem, and asks whether
I want to report it. I reported it, and then you send me a reply that is
basically nonsensical unless I actually have sufficient knowledge to fix
the problem myself. Which, if I follow, is what you're actually telling
me to do.

I changed over to Ubuntu Linux after years of supporting, selling,
training, and using Windows because I was sick of spending so much time
trying to sort out OS/software issues, rather than doing the actual work
that I needed to do. Recently, I'm finding that Ubuntu seems to have
gone the same way. I'm constantly having to reboot, Google solutions to
stupid little problems that stop me from doing what needs to be done, etc.

If you're getting the subtle impression that I'm feeling rather pissed
off, you're right.

I'd appreciate it if you'd please provide some usable (read non-expert)
information on what is actually going on, and what is required.
