Title: New ubuntu 22.04.3 installation
Post by: mahesh on Oct 12, 2023, 07:42 AM
I am installing a new ubuntu 22.04.3 and have some questions. The first is I am wondering if ubuntu forum is having problems. So far its the only place I have problems. Sometimes I get error notices and have to try again, etc. Thought somebody should know (probably you probably know).

I can't find [code] here and the option to go where its at is not here so I will fake it.

Error                           : File is empty

Anyway, this new install will no longer display photos, etc. Thinks that jpg files are empty text files (files tells me: plain text document (text/plain)). I also have an nvidia display but settings says its a NVAB. I don't know what that means. What I should have, I suspect, is an nvidia driver. Should I download one, if so, from where? I suspect this should probably get fixed before I start trying to fix the jpg file thing.
