I am using Mint 13 Maya Cinnamon 64 bit. I had originally installed yesterday, and the update manager popped up on its own in the bottom right corner. After playing around with PlayOnLinux and failing to get Diablo3 or Counter Strike: Source working correctly, I decided to just reinstall, because I had tried a ton of things to get both of those two games working, and I didn't know how much I had changed.
However, after reinstalling, the Update Manager did not pop up automatically in the bottom right corner as it had before. I tried going from Menu -> System Tools -> Administration -> Update Manager, and installed all updates, but my desktop still seemed out of date compared to what it looked like before. When I tried to take a screenshot via Terminal to show you all what it looked like, I got the following response:
Code: Select all
andrew@andrew-desktop ~/Desktop $ gnome-screenshot -d 4
** (gnome-screenshot:3050): WARNING **: Unable to use GNOME Shell's builtin screenshot interface, resorting to fallback X11. Error: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.gnome.Shell was not provided by any .service files
andrew@andrew-desktop ~/Desktop $
As a result I had to go to Menu -> Accessories -> Screenshot to take this: The desktop I previously had looked like the one displayed here: http://helpsite.org/wp-content/uploads/ ... esktop.jpg
I have now reinstalled again, and I'm waiting for Update Manager to pop up by itself, because when I updated manually last time, it did not fix my desktop. When I call
Code: Select all
cinnamon --version
I'd greatly appreciate anyone's help, and thank you in advance for helping this newbie .
P.S. Here is my inxi -Fc 0 (I believe this gives a full system description?)
