Finally trying Ubuntu on my Pi 400

Are they not in /boot like PiOS? ie /boot/config.txt and similar?

Firefox is probably installed as a snap, not sure abotu Rythmbox. Both apt and snap sources should be available in Software Center or, to remove a snap:

sudo snap remove firefox

I'm not sure what you mean. For command like apps you can prefix them with 'sudo' to run as admin. That works for starting GUI apps on the command line too. I'm not sure there's a way to do that from the GUI launcher, but there's rarely a good reason to run a GUI app as root anyway - and many apps that need root privs (eg gparted) will ask for your password when needed.

Thanks for reply, turns out they're Gnome, added synaptic and removed Rhythmnbox and dillo (never luanched ) FF still in until I find a second browser as I use Vivaldi as my main.

As far as admin in the Gui I can do it in POP Os and when I had Ubuntu on my other computer, but on the Pi it doesn't seem to work, maybe I missed something.

On the OverClocking... would you know the file I have to edit in Ubuntu Pi?

Is it not too slow? My RP400 does not work good with Ubuntu. Even if I do a swapoff -A on it.

Actually it's pretty good, there are minor issues with video on YT, but not bad. I got Librewolf installed and video's play better there so if you don't use Vivaldi as I do than LW may be a solution.

I did learn Over Clocking isn't supported yet in Ubuntu Pi, and Kodi freezes if I use it in Ubuntu, but works fine in Pi OS ( my media box is 4 feet away ) so not a big issue for me. Ubuntu also has the newer updated versions of some Software I use everyday, which doesn't work on other debian / ubuntu/ Pi OS.

YT on Pi os with OC is good and Kodi runs well also, but I like this Ubuntu so far haven't needed to go back to the Pi OS since Ubuntu installed.

I assume it's /boot/config.txt like on PiOS? I think that is read by the bootloader rather than the OS, so it doesn't matter what OS you're running. The main difference is there's no raspi-config tool on Ubuntu to set it up for you.

I haven't tried it though, so could be wrong.
