I have a Windows 7 32 bit (Home Premium) on my HP Laptop. I decided to take the easy way to install Ubuntu and that is by using Wubi.    Having gone over a few tutorials on Wubi, I decided to let it do its task. I let it install. I saw the Ubuntu option during boot and hence I selected it and pressed enter.    I saw the Ubuntu purple screen and then my screen went black. All the other lights in the laptop were on. The volume rocker, the wifi, power and so on. I let it sit for about 15 mins but since I did not get any response whatsoever, I had to forcefully shut it down.    Dismissing it as a fluke, I restarted the laptop and repeated the same procedure. I got the same result.  Well, what made it go wrong ? For now,  I have uninstalled it with the hope of reinstalling it once I know what went wrong.
I am trying to boot Ubuntu on my computer.  When I boot Ubuntu, it boots to a black screen.  How can I fix this? Table of Contents:
How can I do a full shutdown of windows 10 without logging in? I have a computer with both Windows 10 and Ubuntu 17.04 installed on it. I can't log in to Windows, and think it's a problem with the registry. Luckily, there is a way to restore the registry from backup from Ubuntu, but you have to be able to modify files on the Windows partition. Right now, I can't write to the NTFS partition because Windows didn't do a full shutdown.  How can I force windows 10 to do a full shutdown without being able to log in? Vim: How do I search for a word which is not followed by another word? How to design partitions for SSHD? What is a word that means to say in a positive sense? For instance, when writers say that a person was sexually assaulted instead of saying raped.  Or people use let go instead of fired.  What is that called? Is there a way to preserve a weapon in Magicka within a saved multiplayer game It seems that I'm missing something about this.  First of all, the series is convergent: $\lim_{n\rightarrow\infty}\frac{2^{-n-1} (n+1)^2}{2^{-n} n^2}=\frac{1}{2}$ (ratio test)  What I tried to do is to find a limit of a partial sum $\lim_{n\rightarrow\infty}S_n$ as follows: $S_n=\frac{\frac{1}{6} n (n+1) (2 n+1)}{\frac{1-\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^n}{2 \left(1-\frac{1}{2}\right)}}$. Still, the limit is $\infty$ and I'm clearly doing something wrong. Is there any possibility of setting up two factor authentication (2FA) for Stack Exchange OpenID authentication?  I could just use my (already 2FA-enabled) Google account for Stack Exchange, but I would prefer to continue use Stack Exchange OpenID.  After  (which, I appreciate, didn't affect Stack Exchange, as you use IIS and Schannel, not OpenSSL), there have been a lot of recommendations to change passwords and to enable 2FA where possible.  So, what are the chances of a text-messaging-based or Google-Authenticator-based 2FA for Stack Exchange? How to block any app from being installed? My mom has an android tablet and she doesn't even know what a site is, her e-mail, or even the password of her facebook account. She's an average user. The internet is facebook in her eyes. She has no need for apps or anything, it's just, only, precisely facebook. All is facebook.  How can I completely disable installing apps in android so they can't be installed in any way or form, I mean, not by URL, not by clicking, not by app store, not even by another program. Just disable the entire thing altogether.  Doesn't need to be safe, have locks, passwords etc. I'm not trying to secure the device from intruders, attackers or robbers, I'm trying to secure it from its very own user.  Please help. I just had to remove two anti-virus apps that were opening adware pages when she tried to open facebook lite, and that's obviously a no-go, apps which she "had not installed." Clearly there's some voodoo going on here for them to just popup, or maybe she just did it unknowingly, but none of that's relevant. How can you just disable installs so this couldn't ever happen again? How can I visualize which folders and files are taking up all of the space on my hard drive?  I'm getting some conflicting reports on the size of hard drive contents. Namely what is and isn't there and what folders are actually using the space.   I need to know which of the files or folders the culprits behind all this hidden bloat. Also there should be a print option to get it on paper. Why does the Moon not revolve around the Sun directly? The sun pulls on the moon with a force that is more than twice the magnitude of the force with which the earth attracts the moon. Why, then, doesn’t the sun take the moon away from the earth? I can run faster than _____. (1) him (2) he? Preventing hyphenation of specific short, repeated, hyphenated words How should I determine how many lands of each different color to put in my deck? There is some behavior I can't understand in the Unity Desktop.   Open nautilus via. clicking in the launcher onto the home-button Navigate to for example the windows-partition in nautilus Minimize nautilus Click on nautilus in the launcher doesn't open the nautilus with windows-partition, instead it opens a new window with the home folder.   Is there a workaround for this strange behavior?  Regards, Arthur Question on the stability of the solar system One of the pertinent questions about many body systems that causes me much wonder is why the solar system is so stable for billions of years. I came across the idea of "resonance" and albeit an useful concept, it hardly explains the long stability of the solar system. Normally an N body problem with inverse square mutual interaction is an example of a chaotic system. Is there any real progress about this stability issue? Convergence of $U_n=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2n\sigma^2}}\left(\Sigma X_j-\Sigma Y_j\right)$ - central limit theorem Suppose that $U_n=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2n\sigma^2}}\left(\Sigma X_j-\Sigma Y_j\right)$,  where $X_1,X_2,\ldots$ and $Y_i,Y_2, \ldots$ are i.i.d. sequences of random variables with mean $\mu$ and variance $\sigma^2$ and the sequences $\{X_i\}$ and $\{Y_i\}$ are independent.  Then, for all real numbers $x$, show that, as $n\to \infty$,  $$\mathbb{P}(U_n\leq x) \to  \int_{-\infty}^{x} \frac{1}{(\sqrt(2\pi))} \:e^{-\frac 12{u^2}}\mathrm du $$ Approach  I tried to carry out the integration on the right, but this does not integrate nicely. It ends up involving an error function, so I figured this was the wrong was to go.  Should I be looking at convergence in probability to answer this question? Is Chebyshev's inequality relevant here? If so, how and how does that relate to the integral? "Writ large", "Writ small", and others I have seen this used with other words besides "large" and "small".  What other words can be used? Can this structure be used more generally with other adjectives? Create ColorRamp How can I create a ColorRamp for a Cycles material through Python?  I am able to create a new shader output node with nodes.new(type='ShaderNodeOutputMaterial'). Searching online, I see that it is only possible through C code (however, these pages dates back several years).  Is there a way to fake a ColorRamp (maybe with multiple Math nodes in greater/less than mode) or create a ColorRamp for a Cycles material through Python? How do I install drivers for Realtek RTL8812BU? So I've been experimenting with Ubuntu on and off for a while, but I honestly have no idea what the hell I'm doing. So I have a realtek RTL8812bu WiFi dongle that I'm hoping to get working. I did some research, and came across  that a couple people across two threads said worked for them:  At the bottom it said there is a new version . So somewhere it said it was confirmed to work on kernels up to 4.16, so I checked and I'm on 4.15.0. But the problem I'm having, is what am I supposed to do? There is some installation guide at the bottom that is about as clear as mud to me since I don't know much. How can I always run the command prompt as administrator?
