Last April I had a new desk top computer made up to my spec. As it was a
company that knows about Linux, and I had already told them that I use
Xubuntu, it arrived with it already installed. So I just used it as it was.
Each time I log on I see a message that I should use F2 to get to the
BIOS, or in this case UEFI, and F11 to be able to choose where to log on.
For the first time I have thought about changing my distro, so I tried
F11, but it did not work. It was just ignored. I also tried F2, but that
was ignored too. When I tried again I just got a blank screen and had to
reset.
I am a bit lost now. Can anyone suggest where I should try from here?
Thanks,
Neil
