Instance Summary

With the knowledge base mentioned earlier, we should now deal with some examples and learn and understand them in action. At the moment I suspect that my Nvidia graphics card has a hardware/driver conflict in Ubuntu because the drive is activated but the device still does not function.

In some cases, I can't use my own hardware--a wireless card--rather, the firmware does not exist in the kernel due to licensing and identifying conflicts. Debian and Trisquel two sets of distributions have this problem.

Other matters

If, I mean, it is only when all of the above solutions are out of the question, should everyone search the Internet for the answers they want. Although I have already mentioned that the various tools described in this article may not always help you find the source of the problem, they are generally effective, so it is recommended that you start here first.

Now we should search for resources from the Internet and compare them with the problems in front of us. In most cases, we can remove a lot of useless information by just glancing at a few glances. If someone is facing the same symptom as you, but the hardware that causes the problem is completely different, don't hesitate-leave now. If someone is facing the same symptoms but using a different operating system-leave immediately. Although I have said it many times, I would like to stress that we should not be distracted by meaningless things. Sometimes a variety of failures can be attributed to the same kernel error, after all, the kernel can output the information is limited. To be sure, many different types of problems can lead to similar failure performance.

Here I would like to recommend some search for answers. Higher success rate of network resources: Phoronix, although it is only a forum, but often organized inspection and benchmarking activities; Linux drivers is a useful compiler-class portal And then LinuxQuestions.org website, where the resources are very good, it is worth visiting more.
