How can i do whatever I want to do ?

I wanted to install jackett and sonarr, they are complicated to use as is, moreover I am using Ubuntu. I am following fuidleine for installing jackett with STUPID command line making it EXTRA difficult. But now I have to change directory ownerships and what nots. I am the ONLY user on this machine. I want to own everything by...

tinocofaidh,

But that’s what you will want to do…follow the guideline, use commands and set up ownership properly.

Use commands would mean codifying the steps, so even the author doesn’t know how to write English, you won’t make one step wrong.

Second thing is, besides you, there are many many little daemons around you and using your computer, just waiting for you to think you are the sole owner and do one wrong step…

Type “ls” to see what it could find?

tinocofaidh,

Seems at least it can see the harddisks. May be look for the boot directory with “ls (hdx, xxx)” and see if anything can be used?

tinocofaidh,

I daily drive a Starlite 3 (the older version is a laptop) and am happy with it. Once thought about buying the Starlite 5 (the new convertible tablet) when the keyboard on mine was broken, but then gave up the idea because of how repairable the laptop version is. End up I just bought a replacement keyboard.

It is great if you need a touch screen and don’t have concern about repairing. But if it is just for occasional use, I may go with the Pinetab instead. Never tried one but I guess it will be more fun.

tinocofaidh,

I use Linux because I work faster on it than Windows. If it doesn’t help you, why bother keep using it?

But I think the question is why did you switch to Linux in the first place? Both have things they are good at and they aren’t, so if you can’t compromise you will only be unhappy no matter which OS you are on.
