Notice how they leave out desktops...which is the sort of environment I'm trying to use it in and where it's failing.

Yep, it is close, but just fails at the final hurdle.
I am having issues with 17.10 and nvidia drivers, (massively high) resolutions, blank screens.
Perhaps go back to an older Ubuntu with the unity shell?

I would try Linux Mint before giving up.

No plans to give up!
Not that I intend to use it, I just need to get a kernel with some extra tracing/step through running so I can see why my USB device isnt working properly on linux.

I've been thinking about that. Perhaps something that was current at the time the latest Linux drivers for my video chipset came out. Maybe I'll do that if the system (now back on Windows 10) starts running into errors installing updates again...
It's important though in this case that I use something lightweight. Unity is all but that.

I believe at login you can chose unity 2D instead of 3D. 2D is lighter I believe.

I'll try to find out if/when I reinstall Linux on that machine. Right now that's not in my plans.

Is that the one located beside apartment 2B or not 2B?

I am completely baffled by their grid system.
That is all. I now return you to your regularly scheduled chaos.

It seems fairly straightforward to me. What's causing you issues?

It takes a while to wrap one's head around it, but it's pretty straight forward if you stick to the basics.
"row" class for every row.
"col-??" class for every column. Learn the ??, the xs/sm/md/lg options, as they're great for controlling column widths depending on the browser width.
"col-??-offset-n" where n is a certain number of columns is also nice for controlling padding depending in the window width.
After that, just put your column's content in your own div.
Basically though, it's just a CSS wrapper for td and tr. 
It is, however, the best grid layout system I've played with, though my recommendation doesn't go very far as I'm still a n00b at all this.

At least all the tedium and swearing have paid off with (imho) a pretty nice reporting solution...the gridview!
