Some info here: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/fb/modedb.rst
Perhaps run: to see which drivers, if any, have been loaded that support modedb.

Couple of ideas: 1. change the sata cables; 2. try kernel option: libata.force=3.0Gbps
These were successful for some users online in the case of the error: "failed command: READ FPDMA QUEUED"
No guarantees, just reversible suggestions.

A file with the relevant contents in post #1 can be written, as root, to /etc/xdg/user-dirs.defaults as a configuration for new users. The commented text in the current /etc/xdg/user-dirs.defaults is: # Default settings for user directories # # The values are relative pathnames from the home directo...

On the .bashrc file, you most likely can copy the .bashrc file from here: /etc/skel/.bashrc, into your /home/$USER/ and you will then have the default .bashrc which you can have applied to a terminal by sourcing it: source .bashrc or logout and login in again. On office packages and browsers not ope...

If /var/log/sysstat/sa21 is created, and sysstat is enabled in /etc/default/sysstat, and systemctl has enabled and started it, then a command like: sar -u would normally show output of the current CPU usage for the current day. If it's not working, the output will say that sysstat can't open the rel...

ACPI error messages are common in linux. The reason is that the linux kernel follows the industry's open specification for the implementation of ACPI standards, but the manufacturers of BIOS/UEFI don't always do that, rather they often issue their wares with "stuff" that works. There's qui...

You could try the same act of plugging in the cable after the machine has booted and see what dmesg says, e.g. what is the output of: Maybe something there.

Is the video card supplied with a proper driver and the updated firmware?
Perhaps run to check the driver and the module: Then, you can check if the latest firmware for that card is installed.

To see where the largest files in your home directory you could run:

Thank you for the reply. Does that mean I can click reset? Or enter the BIOS and disable it entirely?

Yes to the second question.

You could try and have the volume set to 100%, or any percentage, using the amixer command in a start up file like .xsession, or failing that, create a systemd unit to run the amixer command at start up or write a simple /etc/rc.local file. A command like the following can be used: amixer set Master...

Presumably the configure script is in the directory where you are trying to run it. Perhaps show bash the command by running:

To debug hibernation you could have a look here: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v5.7/po ... gging.html

The sources.list looks fine and doesn't appear to be implicated in any of the difficulty. As an aside, unless you are downloading source, the source repos could be commented out to fractionally save some bandwidth. sunrat's observation looks to be onto something at this point.

It may be that all you need to do is wait a little time and try again. Be sure to run: apt update, before you try and install the neofetch program. If none of that helps, show here your sources.list file from /etc/apt/sources.list. If there are more files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/, it'd be useful ...

Do you have another video card to try? From your output: rnel: [ 247.073471] nouveau 0000:08:00.0: fifo:000000:0006:0006:[nautilus[4769]] errored - disabling channel 2023-11-14T18:30:51.121651-04:00 sicario kernel: [ 918.457536] nouveau 0000:08:00.0: fifo:000000:0006:0006:[gnome-control-c[6106]] err...

You could try each of those kernel options separately to see if either work. It's the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= "..." line that is the most likely candidate for adjustment. Laptops vary a lot without following uniform standards. It means that often, the user has to find what works for th...

This command should bring up the path. echo $PATH The fsck command is usually used on a partition or filesystem that has not been mounted, or is mounted as ro (read only), the reason being that if the filesystem was still active, it would be a moving target for fsck, so it would be unable to do its ...
