My Only Beef With Ubuntu

I have been trying out Ubuntu via Wubi for a while now, and I can honestly say I have only had one big beef with it during my tinkering. There is no good one, two three step process for editing the monitor settings. Now that might be more a problem with my computer than the OS itself - but it has kept me from using Ubuntu full time.

Trying to search around and find a way to edit the brightness and contrast to where things don’t look ultra-bright has been a pain. If that could be made into an easier process - then sure I might give it a permanent chance. Other than that, it does seem to fit all the rest of my needs.

Of course there is probably some Ubuntu gurus out there having a good laugh at the fact I can’t figure this situation out. Afraid this old HP desktop computer though might just not have it in it to go too open source.

Also there are a lot of different Linux flavors I haven’t gotten to try out yet either, so maybe I can find one that fits me just right.

Hello Mitch; Doesn’t your monitor have those settings. You might try adjusting them.
