My colleague was showing me something on his Linux system and I couldn’t help but notice that instead of having all the running app icons on the left bar, he has a floating dock along the bottom, just like a Mac system. Nice. I want! How do I set up my Ubuntu Linux system to have this style of dock?
I’ve been using a point-and-click interface for so long that I constantly make awkward mistakes at the command line. The result is a lot of beeps. Which I don’t like! How can I change them or disable them entirely in Ubuntu Linux?
I have an account on my friend’s Ubuntu Linux system which is great, but the account icon at login is just my initials. Boring. How can I assign a photo or picture to my account photo?
I use Linux and Firefox as my main browser. It works well, but I’m not a fan of Google and it’s frustrating that the default search engine in Firefox is Google! How can I change it to something like DuckDuckGo?
I’m a bit confused about my new Linux computer showing time in 24-hour format. I don’t think in “1700 hours” notation, however, I think in “am/pm” notation. How can I switch how my Ubuntu Linux system shows the current time?
I am running Ubuntu Linux through Parallels Desktop on my Mac for software testing. Works well, but every time I start up, I get a stream of “printer added” notifications on my screen and it’s annoying. I have a network printer, how can I avoid all the notifications?
I’m a bit confused. I find cool pictures and choose “Set as Wallpaper” on my Linux PC. Works fine. Until I change it again, then the system’s forgotten the previous image. How can I build a library of wallpapers? Running Ubuntu on an Intel system.
I just got an M1 MacBook and love it. I’m in school and really want to teach myself Linux while I have the computer too, but my friends are telling me that Linux isn’t compatible with the Apple M1 chip. Any help or advice?
