Want my home server to keep the same address. Older guides talk about an interfaces file that doesn't exist on my install, and the netplan yaml I wrote throws an error. Ubuntu 22.04.

Putting Ubuntu on an older MacBook Pro, any gotchas?

macOS no longer gets updates on my 2015 MacBook Pro so I'm thinking of wiping it and installing the latest Ubuntu. Worried about wifi drivers, the trackpad and boot. Should I dual boot first to test, or just go for it?

Forgot my Ubuntu password and I'm the only admin

Home machine, single user account, and I can't remember the login password. No other admin user exists. Is there a recovery mode way to reset it without reinstalling?

Ubuntu USB made with Rufus won't boot

Made the stick with Rufus, GPT, default settings. The laptop's boot menu lists the USB but picking it just drops me back at the menu. Secure boot is on. Wrong partition scheme maybe?

Fresh install on a desktop with an Nvidia card. The second screen over DisplayPort works in Windows on the same machine, but Settings > Displays only shows one. Do I need a different driver?
