I would install these two things first "Terminator Terminal and Notepad qq"Then copy and paste this whole list in Notepad qq and use the search to "Find" the command/s you're looking for.Like Hard Disk, SSD, Monitor, Clock, Games, TeamSpeak, Nvidia, AMD, VLC, Software Center, i386, VirtualBox, Computer Name, Password, Themes... The list is to long to name everything just search for it it is probably there!Most of these commands will work in Ubuntu, Xubuntu 18.04, 20.04, 22.04, Mint 19.03+.Install Terminator Terminal - Terminator can run multiple terminal windows in one window by right clicking and splitting the termianl window.Type or copy and paste this hit enter: sudo apt-get updateType or copy and paste this hit enter: sudo apt-get install terminatorType or copy and paste this hit enter: sudo apt-get updateYou can find it on your menu under Accessories if you're still using the picture... less
