error: no server is specified. error: no suitable video mode found. /dev/sdc2: clean, 259918/15630336 files.
After this error screen for few seconds it automatically boots into Ubuntu.
Need Help :)
Nothing to worry about especially if it boots fine and loads your graphical environment. It’s just a grub warning message because grub doesnt play well with (presumably) nvidia. You could probably make some tweaks to remove the error but there’s really no reason to bother.
Let me guess, you have an Nvidia card?
Avoid *buntu.
What did I miss? Ubuntu used to be the shit.
It’s still good, it’s just popular now so the edgelords hate it.
For me the question is rather, what’s the current raison d’être for Ubuntu if you’re not looking for Debian with paid support?
Granted it’s been long since I’ve used it (I used it from 2005 or so until 2008 when I switched to Arch), but there’s no really appealing quality for me there that I couldn’t have with Debian. Apart from that, Canonical makes questionable decisions – snap, as others have mentioned, a total disaster in my opinion; Mir was another of their misadventures (later retrofitted into a Wayland compositor); upstart didn’t turn out successful (though to give credit, it was an honest attempt at a new init system and lessons were learned); the LXD maintainer issue as of late leaves a sore taste in my mouth, plus they were always very community-unfriendly with their CLAs. And all this for what? Might as well use their upstream instead.
Ubuntu has the largest community around it, meaning you’ll find help for it the fastest.
Granted, some issues are distro-agnostic, but you can’t always know whether yours is, especially if you are newer to Linux.
Fastest help is Archwiki, even if you run Ubuntu…
Hard false. This is only true for experienced users. For me the Arch wiki is great, for a novice it isn’t.
I disagree. It’s very detailed and I think it can both help a novice and help a novice become less of a novice.
They have made quite a few questionable decisions over time and trying to push users into their own packaging format is a big no no for many. Yours is a very dumb take.
Thanks, edgelord
Can’t make a coherent counter-argument? Just call them and edgelord!
Please let me know which brilliant argument your peer has made that so excited you. Is it the vague “questionable decisions”, the “big no no” or that “Yours is a very dumb take?”
See the other replies that you’ve conveniently ignored for the meat of those decisions.
