On a newly installed 16.04, the screen resolution cannot be changed from 1024 x 768, even though my Intel chipset and monitor are confirmed to support a resolution of 1920 x 1200 or more.   I do seem to have the Intel driver installed and enabled. I have also tried , which didn't change anything.  I have seen quite a few questions about it here and elsewhere, none of which suggest a clear solution nor any way of diagnosing the root cause. My current bet is that somehow 8th generation intel processors, require  but the process seems a little sensitive to try.
All  I just install a fresh new Ubuntu 16.04 on my new desktop which has a 8th generation Intel CPU i5 8600K. When OS installed, I found there is only one option in display setting: 1024 x 768 (4:3),  My monitor is a HDMI monitor with 1920x1080 resolution  Do anyone have any idea how to make the resolution setting right? Thanks.  BTW. I do not install any graphic card, I use the internal GPU of Intel
When A and B are positively related variables, can they have opposite effect on their outcome variable C? A is positively related to B.  C is the outcome of A and B, but the effect of A on C is negative and the effect of B on C is positive.  Can this happen? How to set static IP address? I have configured network adapter of guest Ubuntu to work in a bridged mode so I could ssh to it from the host machine.   The problem is that the guest Ubuntu ip address keep changing.   Even though it changes  within a very short range 192.168.0.4-10 it is still takes time to configure Putty and other programs each time.  Is there a way to make the guest Ubuntu ip address to be static?  My guest OS has the full GUI. Why do the humans become sleepy after meals? I'm going to accessing my ubuntu machine remotely from my windows machine through putty. Are there any suggestions for possible ways to get an X server running on my windows machine?  Thanks. A word with a wide range of meanings Is there a better alternative to ambiguous for a word with a wide range of meanings, difficult to find, because they become different in connection with person's opinion. I would like AUCTeX (that is, Emacs with auctex loaded) to suggest more LaTeX macros when using completion (M-Tab or C-Ret) than it does by default. I would like to have macros from packages I have downloaded on CTAN and macros I have written. I would also like it if it would complete \section or other macros that can be accessed via C-c C-s, C-c C-e etc.  Solution: I could not make the code quoted by  work. i get an error on loading emacs but did not looked much further in because I ca bear the nuisance of appending a few lines to my files.  The link given by Ben ( contains a working solution, thus I accept his answer. I had come across this page in my researchs but somehow messed up things. What eventually worked for me was using TeX-auto-generate TEX AUTO to create a bunch of .el files in the ~/.emacs.d/auctex/auto direcoty. Note that this directory must be created beforhand. For some reasons TeX-macro-private did not achieve the wanted result. What article should be used in the following sentence?     He was English by [a/the/] blood.   I feel there should be a zero article here, but I was taught that the zero article is impossible in English. That's really embarrassing, however I need to ask it. I could not prove that the normed space    $\langle \mathscr{C} [0, 1], \| \cdot \|_1 \rangle $ is complete (as a metric space), where $\| f\|_1 = \int_0^1 |f(x)|dx$. I don't really know how to explicit a continuous functions as a limit of a Cauchy sequence. I tried to prove that the pointwise limit (of the Cauchy sequence) have just a finite number of discontinuities (I don't know if it's true) and then approximate it by a continuous function.  Thanks in advance. A mathematically mature introduction to Turing Machines and Computability [reference-request] In the computer science course for mathematicians held at my university Turing Machines have been presented very briefly. So much so that I didn't quite get why they are relevant to mathematics. I did understand what a Turing Machine is, but I feel that the presentation given was (for schedule reasons) quite naive and simplified. So I would like to ask if you can point out a good reference for a mathematically mature introduction to turing machines and computability. Looking for illustrator script to swap all objects with another I have a map with small circles for over 200 cities. I need to change all of the circles into map pins. Is there a way to do this? I think it's a script maybe.   I know how to select all objects of the same appearance and give them a new graphic style but that will only let me change the color, stroke, etc. not replace with a new shape. I got two mails from the UK embassy in Abu, saying your visa application has been concluded. I'm really confused, did I get the visa or not? What could the possible results be? How were the number of rounds for different key sizes of AES selected? The number of AES rounds increases with the key length. Why increase the number of rounds at all, and how were these round counts chosen? Books for starting with analysis I am interested in self-studying real analysis, and I was wondering which textbook I should pick up. I know all high school mathematics, I have read  (I did most of the exercises).  I have completed a computational calculus course which covered everything up to and including integration by parts (including the substitution method and Riemann sums) I am currently considering:    From what I have heard this is not very well suited for self-study and that while the exercises are extremely difficult, if you take the time they are worth the effort.    I have heard that while Spivak explains proofs in much more detail than Principles, it doesn't cover all of the material in the latter.    I don't know much about this. I have only seen some comments saying that it is an excellent introduction to analysis.    Extra clarification edit: I would prefer a book not to ''dumb down'' the material, something that would not hold my hand through every step, something that would force me to fill in the gaps myself instead of explaining every single step. That is why I am currently leaning towards Rudin, but before I decide I would still like some information on the book by Apostol.

The offending package that is missing, but unity needs, seems to be compiz-core-abiversion-20151010. It seems to be a , and I can't find it to download.    As it happens, I mostly use LXDE on this system, but I'd be very unhappy if I used Unity...  Since I do occasionally use the Unity desktop, is there a fix for this?

How to analyze trend in non-periodic time series Suppose I have following non-periodic time series. Obviously the trend is decreasing and I would like to prove it by some test (with p-value).
