I want to see your suggestions on comparing CPanel and FASTPANEL. I used CPanel for some time but later I changed to FASTPANEL which is absolutely free but provides you with the same opportunities. Also FASTPANEL's design looks much better than CPANEL's one. So now I can't understand why people pay for CPanel. What panel do you guys use and why?

I've discovered a weird problem with my Linux Mint-system (Linux Mint 18). After rebooting my system (or restarting as well) I got the GRUB menu, but my keyboard is not responding... So I have to wait for the timeout to get my system booted. The keyboard is wired to the computer through an USB-connection. So it's not wireless. And it works OK as soon as my system has booted.. (?). I have installed/loaded Linux kernel 4.4.142, 4.4.143 and 4.4.145. When running kernel 4.4.142 Virtualbox and VMWare Workstation works as it should, but when I try to use 4.4.143 or 4.4.145 …

I kept searching online …
