Lubuntu installation window could not be moved no matter was it upside down or not. Changed to Bodhi Linux which understood my monitor better. Now installing.

And Bodhi it is!!! Ridiculous amount of ways to adjust the windows sizes and layouts. If someone has a small screen Bodhi is the right choice for a noob with confs.

No. Bodhi first seemed to work properly but had crashes and major problems with sound and did not get cubicsdr work. Now installing Kubuntu which is the first distro I am able to install NOT upsidedown cause dragging window works perfectly. We (or me atleast) will see.

Ok. So Kubuntu works perfectly. It just knows how to resize windows and everything works. Fast. I don't know why I have neglected it so far and stuck with Lubuntu for my device. But here is a link to video which is quite many megabytes but this is a peak in to Maemish life. A short peak to something I am proud of. 8Gb ram, 120Gb fast ssd, JBL Cube inside, touchpad, dvd player, 7" monitor, sdr-rtl configured, all in a Nokia Data KS21 cash register laptop frame from 1989 I think.

A tip for all of those graphics woes you had typing things upside-down and backwards into windows and screens and clicking into unseen dialogs;

EVRYTHING you can do in linux using some GUI tool you also have a way of achieving without gui at all, just by ssh'ing into the device and using cli commands. Everything.

Some day I will read about basics of linux. Untill then I can't use anything else to sort things out than what I have bumped into during these years. That is why my brain searches solution from GUI environments and different options there.

I am quite sure you already know more than the basics, and fair amount of the power user stuff.
There is always new things to learn for everybody.

Well I don't yet know what are those three letter agencies inside linux system: etc, bin, usr, dev etc. (again etc!)

I could read about them but never had reason.
