I have an Acer Chromebook with model-number CB3-132-C971 and it will be reach end of support in June 2022. I don't want to throw this computer away. Is it possible to install Ubuntu on this computer with an ISO-file?  How do I remove Chrome-OS totally and install Ubuntu instead? what are the steps?

A few weeks ago my chromebook got crazy and its OS got corrupted for an unknown reason. I'd like to instal Ubuntu 12.04 64bit on it using a bootable USB pendrive, but since it is not the usual installation that I am used to on PCs/laptops....I am a bit stuck and dont even know where to start. I'd simply like to make a pendrive that I can make bootable for my chromebook and do the installation.

I'm looking for a portable version of Chrome (not Chromium) that I can work with on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I can only find Chromium or really outdated versions. Due to limitation on the machine I'm using, I cannot install Wine or utilize any admin features as I am on a standard account. Ideally, I would rather have an official version or at least one that exists in a repository that I can apt-get from.   (I understand that apt-get requires sudo, I can use it for the initial vagrant setup, but that's all. Hence why I would need non-admin methods)

I'm fairly new to linux but I want to install it on my chromebook with crouton. Is there a way to install something like lubuntu or xubuntu without any of the software normally bundled? For example, I don't need a music manager, libre office, an internet browser (I will install chrome). I would rather just choose these kinds of programs myself and install what I need rather than have them included. Is this possible?

I am trying to install google-chrome-stable on a fresh ubuntu 12.04 installation. I run the following commands  wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb sudo dpkg -i google-chrome*.deb   I get the following errors  dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of google-chrome-stable:  google-chrome-stable depends on libstdc++6 (&gt;= 4.8.0); however: Version of libstdc++6 on system is 4.6.3-1ubuntu5.  google-chrome-stable depends on lsb-base (&gt;= 4.1); however: Version of lsb-base on system is 4.0-0ubuntu20.3. dpkg: error processing google-chrome-stable (--install):  dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Processing triggers for man-db ... Processing triggers for bamfdaemon ... Rebuilding /usr/share/applications/bamf.index... Processing triggers for desktop-file-utils ... Processing triggers for gnome-menus ... Errors were encountered while processing:  google-chrome-stable   When I run sudo apt-get install -f I just have google-chrome-stable removed:  The following packages will be REMOVED   google-chrome-stable   If I look for the required versions, e.g. I try sudo apt-get install libstdc++6=4.8.0 I cannot find the version:  E: Version ‘4.8.0’ for ‘libstdc++6’ was not found   How do I fix that?  I know there is no longer support for 32bit version of Ubuntu 12.04. I am running 64bit Ubuntu version.

I can buy Dell Latitude E7270 through my employer. It will come with Windows, but I would like to install Ubuntu (most likely 14.04). This model does not appear on the list of certified hardware, however. Does anyone know whether I should anticipate any problems with his laptop? Thanks!

Before I buy my next laptop, I'd like to make sure that it will work perfectly with Ubuntu. Is there a list of completely supported computers anywhere?

To start I should admit that I haven't done much work in Ubuntu in a few years.  I am wondering is if there is still a single, canonical source of the hardware supported by the newest distribution of Ubuntu.  In specific, I want to get a 17-inch HP dv7t Quad edition laptop.  But more generally, it is just bothering me how little luck I'm having finding an up-to-date support listing.

I'm downloading both versions of Ubuntu 12.04 at this moment. I'd like to install AMD64 on my portable, even though it's an Intel machine. Is there a website (or another way) where I can check compatibility?  Acer Aspire 5745G-724G50Mnks, Intel i7 with 4Gb RAM

I have had the last Ubuntu distro (10.something) installed for a year and love it.  But I have run in to an issue when I tried to upgrade it to the latest one it did not work and there has come some serious issues now with almost everything and I want to remove Ubuntu completely and install the new one.  How can I remove the operating system (I don’t mind formatting the whole thing if that’s what’s needed).

I want to buy a laptop at some point in the near future, but not knowing beforehand whether it works with Ubuntu makes the whole operation risky and tiresome. I would like to know if there is some kind of official hardware database where I can enter the name of the laptop I'm interested in and see if it's 100% compatible out of the box, or in case it isn't what is it exactly that doesn't work (ideally also if there is a way to fix it).  Does Canonical have a project along these lines?

Google has  so on a 32bit Debian machine it's not possible anymore to update the APT repository:  W: Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/Release  Unable to find expected entry 'main/binary-i386/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)   Also has the .deb file removed from Google servers as it seems.  Is there any alternative .deb download of the last release (46?) available somewhere?  Reason: For an automated Debian build system (debootstrap-based) I urgently need a way to install Google Chrome 32bit v46 (or similar). Switching to another browser (including Chromium) is not a quick enough option for me at the moment..
