Bug Description
i was very happy until i installed wine and playonlinux to get some windows apps that i need.. i turned it off, go to sleep, wake up, start again athis is what happen:
1- when the machine starts, before login section, a lot of code in black screen. Telling something like "error", "not found", things like that
2- after that, the login was rare, too big scaled
3- when it opens up my session, everything is out of scale, too big. I try to settings/Display, but only 640 x 480 (4:3) is available
4- now everything sucks (sorry), i can not save some files in pendrive, because it is no "mounted point"
5- i do the backup thing, just 2 days ago... when i was in the peak of my happiness, but when i "restore" it, just said everything was ok, etc, but nothing happens
ASK: is there a way to protect the system to make mistakes ?
i ask this because, there is a lot of potential linux users, who do not get it because they dont even try, but there is a lot of new users, who really do not code anything, and the only way is to get some tutorials, etc and follow the steps. I understand that this steps are made by people in there own system, and they do not have to know/match with mine. In my last try with ubuntu, a few years ago (14.08 i think) this was my most hard thing to survive with, because in that time, i had to run cuda from nvidia, for the graphics, and everything goes to hell too.
I will reset everything again, i like Linux, but i do not want to study 5 years to put it on my way.. i really hate windows, but the industry takes you there, and that is so hatefull.. and mac, do a great job, but 4 of 5 mac-men are really assholes with washed brains
Thanks for your time
Have a nice day
Keep on going
I will try again
