The reason why I am asking is because I encountered a similar problem and managed to solve it with after three days of hard work troubleshooting the problem. It was caused by a software issue, not a bug.
I'd like to gather a list of boilerplate comments (AKA canned responses) for Ask Ubuntu which can be used in combination with the awesome Pro-forma comments userscript.
Post suggestions too, you are not required to use the script.
Please wrap your comments into a code-block for easier copying.
The reason why I am asking about this question which is being reviewed: askubuntu.com/questions/979202/… is that I solved a similar problem which was caused by a software issue, not by a bug.
I wasted a small amount of money on new hardware and that didn't work so I contacted a service technician from my ISP by phone and he told me how to solve it over the phone.

Nah, you can post that as a separate answer as an example of what layout dump gives... for example, do you really need those last couple of focuses? It looks like it just dumped everything that led to this layout.
Won't be the first time I have posted a general answer showing how to do something that OP accepts and then posts an additional answer for their specific case
I have a massif format file with which I could generate a 2D graph using massif-visualizer tool using command in terminal. Now how do I save the obtained graph to an image file using terminal command. I don't want it saved by the user.
My Ubuntu 16.04 system just locked up out of the blue, I had to hard-reset the machine.
Now that's booted back up, the Unity menubar has turned transparent, and the light shading around each icon on the lanchbar is gone. It definitely should not look like this.

Hi I fluffed around with my touchscreen config in usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ and now my touchscreen doesn't work (Dell XPS 15 9550) is there any way to undo my changes, or reset settings?
The Dell factory installed Ubuntu on 16.04 has a few shortcomings that needed to be fixed before it is fully useful. Below are the things I had to fix. Please feel free to add yours as well.

WHat you could do for easier finding, creating a VM (Vitualbox or KVM/Qemu) install 16.04 fresh into this VM and pull the files from there, if you end up not finding them via google searh or launchpad
sudo do-release-upgrade, or go via software&updates and set it to upgrade for every release not only LTS, do-release-upgrade -c is used to check if there is a n upgrade possible and tels you exactly which one

Why is that if I ask a question, and then find the answer the next day, I still have to wait one more day before I can mark my answer as solved? Isn't it more productive to just let people mark it as solved so others don't waste their time on it?
I'm getting this screen immediately when i boot (https://i.sstatic.net/0eIak.jpg)
I tried the commands suggested in:
Recovering from 'grub rescue>' crash
which did not work for me. Please suggest another way as soon as possible.

Hi everyone! Just a quick question. I have a python program which writes into a directory by making new directories or writes directly inside then newly made directory. I am the root user and the high level directory has 777 permissions. However, I am unable to write within the newly made directory because of permissions. How can give newly created directories permissions?
It used to be called something much less creative and ambiguous, like the kill it with fire room or something. Not literally, but it was close. Maybe the "Ad hoc minimod room" or something.
@AppleSupport @Apple You can access it via System Preferences>Users & Groups>Click the lock to make changes. Then use "root" with no password. And try it for several times. Result is unbelievable!
Generally, it's a complex topic. There seems to be very little in the way of example or linear progression in to non-trivial examples.
It's possible my google-fu is weak, but I can't seem to locate decent tutorials on using binary instrumentation frameworks (Pin, DynamoRIO, other).
