I don't know if this is Linux mint bug, but in RC I can't select my other monitor in ATi CCC, but in Mint 6 I did have two monitors. And Mint's own screen configuration doesn't even start after I have installed ati drivers :|

Its good news and bad news. The bad thing is that SLI still won't work out of the box. The good thing is that the old fix ( http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.p ... li#p112633 ) posted by Abadaba still works.

Wine Doors is bizarre:

I get an error I didn't have before

Package update completed
The following errors were reported:
Reported 1 time:Could not find packlist /tmp/System Base.xml

The file is there though when I check my tmp folder

Besides that, great job on LM7 GLORIA RC1 x64 it's very solid :D

After I installed Ati drivers manually, I did get Mint's own screen configuration work, but it doesn't recognise my monitors :?

Hi,

I'm running Linux Mint 7 x64 RC on Acer Aspire 7730G with Intel Core 2 Duo P7350 and NVIDIA 9600M GT. I don't know how to reproduce it, but exceptionally often while working the system gets stuck and caps lock starts blinking. Kernel freeze?

If there are any log files which could shed light on that problem, please tell me. The problem appears in about one or two of 5 sessions only, but it annoyingly appears at all.

Thanks for your help!

BTW: Linux Mint rulez! :-)

@ VitViper
Compiz should not have worked in the first place - the 965 is blacklisted in Compiz
I have just answered a question about this but can't find the topic :)

Code: Select all

gksu gedit /usr/bin/compiz
Find this section
# blacklist based on the pci ids
# See http://wiki.compiz-fusion.org/Hardware/Blacklist for details
#T=" 1002:5954 1002:5854 1002:5955" # ati rs480
#T="$T 1002:4153" # ATI Rv350
#T="$T 8086:2982 8086:2992 8086:29a2 8086:2a02 8086:2a12" # intel 965
T="$T 8086:2a02 " # Intel GM965
T="$T 8086:3577 8086:2562 " # Intel 830MG, 845G (LP: #259385)
BLACKLIST_PCIIDS="$T"
Comment out the two 965 lines it should have a # in the beginning so it looks like the lines directly above
If this screws it all up just remove the two #
This is no bug in Mint - almost anything with Intel 965 is a bug with Intel not Linux

Hi,

BRAZILIAN PORTUGUESE

The system is really very fast. Great job by Linux Team.

note:

mintUpdate doesn't work for this RC1 x64 Mint 7 Gloria edition as the same for 32 bit Stable edition.

http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=27155

(Here there were no updates to apply. Previous updates were done through Synaptic (APT) .
mintupdate launched from Terminal - mintupdate Gui pops up normally.

Thank you very much!

Will there be a R1 ISO for Gloria 7 32 bit edition or a patch to fix this issue?
(revision 1) - A patch woudl be appreciated.

Best Wishes

----------------------------------------------------

EDITADO:
A new version of mintUpdate ( 3.7.7) was sent and received via Synaptic.
Now mintUpdate is working properly for pt_BR - both editions - 32bit Stable and x64 RC1
mintsystem - version 7.4.8

Thanks a lot

There is a bug that is also in Mint 6 (64).

Im using the Creative Xmod as an USB soundcard.
When I select is in the soundsettings for output of music and video, it plays all sounds from music over the USB card, all movie programs (Totem, MPlayer and VLC) still use the onboard soundcard.

Why Id say its a bug and not just some unsupported hardware is that it works perfectly under Ubuntu (8.10 as well as 9.04).

Here is the thread with some more details and what we have tried so far:
http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=26517

I was able to redirect the sound from Totem Player to the USB soundcard by redirecting the stream under PulseAudio Volume Control.
Maybe that helps.

You can't do that in the 32 bit either
I don't think it is a proper bug, I rather think it is impossible....

Actually the Open in terminal worked fine on my Dell Inspiron 8200 in Linux Mint 6. But more details are that it actually shows up in the bottom panel as an opened window but then closes after about 5 seconds. For everyday users it won't even be noticed as a problem. Also I have the Headphones plugged in, speakers still playing, problem no matter whether I use Ubuntu 9.04 x64 or Linux Mint 7 x64 and I have tried adding the options into the alsa-base.conf file as other users from other forums have suggested with no avail.

I've noticed a long delay in having a menu entry show up in your programs menu after you install something.

An example, I installed Handbrake but it wasn't until several minutes later before I got the menu entry under Sound & Video.
I've noticed this on the x86 version of Mint 7 but it seems even longer on the 64 bit version.

Another weird thing about the Mint menu is the scroll bar that you scroll to see your whole list of apps, sometimes it just jumps wildly up and down while trying to scroll it. Sometimes you don't even need to click on the scroller, just running your mouse up and down causes it to scroll.

Lastly, this has been happening for sometime now but I've always wondered why Firefox hangs when I try to close it? It was bad on Mint 6 and is only a little better on Mint 7 and it really doesn't matter at all what page I'm browsing when I close FF. I thought it might be a Flash thing but it does it even when there's no flash on the page.

I was under the impression that the latest evolution, available in Gloria has native support for exchange (or maybe just the .pst files), if I'm right, then removing the connector might solve the problem.

Just tried blanking two DVD RWs discs and both time the process stops quickly, saying it was successful and both time I'm unable to get the disc out of the computer.

I can't even force an eject because now both times my drive just vanishes from the system.

I'm not sure but I think something is borked, having to reboot to get a DVD out of the drive is no fun. I still haven't gotten Brasero to burn anything on the RC1.

On occasion Gnome Menu will hang and use 100% system resources, other times upon logging in I'll get no Gnome panel, I have to log back out and in for the panel to load.

There is a problem with right click. When you press the right mouse button right click menu seems. But when you release the button it selects first option from menu. This problem is not occuring always but it occurs usually. And this is a system wide problem. I thought that maybe my mouse have a problem. I have tested it on the same computer with another op.system. Problem is only with the mint. Problem starts with installation of mint.

Funny, I didn't encounter this issue when I was using Ubuntu Jaunty x64. I've installed htop from the repos and it was downloaded and set up successfully. With Mint Gloria x64rc1, however, I just found out that I can launch the app from a terminal window but clicking on the htop icon in the mint/administration seems to effect no response from the OS.
