Thanks for the feedback guys. Like I wrote it's hardly an issue worth worrying about but in the 15 years or so I've used Ubuntu moving a file was, in the Gnome desktop, just left click and drag to destination. Why 18.04 would be different is beyond me. No need to spend brain juice on this though. My real issue is booting the correct kernel and why the default (not chosen by me) 4.18.* ends up with the wrong res which cannot be changed and the inability to reboot. Again, I get around these issues but it's weird since I did a fresh install months back and didn't touch config files or anything that would cause this behavior. Next meeting though. 

Thanks again

Brian. Try a right click. It is Nautilus. There is a guide for Gnome. Ted P.

Hi all,

Still a hearty hoo-za! for a and Jason's diligence. Sure helps when one knows what they're doing. This speaks to a minor but annoying issue I have. I am running U 18.04. When I use the GUI to move a file off of, say the desktop into a folder in the file manager, the file doesn't move but gets copied and the original file sits there on the DT. I can trash it of course but I'm wondering if there isn't some preference somewhere that deals with this. Any ideas?

I still need to work out the no-restart issue and why I can't boot into the preferred kernel though I set that in the grub config. Still all workable I just have to open the grub menu to pick out the kernela that works. (and that is nothing above 4.15.*. No 4.18.*) Maybe next meeting.

That's all ffffolks
