I have been using Linux Mint Debian on two of my desktops which have single core CPUs.
I have now acquired a motherboard bundle with a quad core CPU. The LMDE information site says I should install a 686-PAE kernel. Please explain how I can do this. Exact instructions would be appreciated as my command line skills are hopeless.
Thank you

Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install linux-image-686 linux-headers-686-pae

Thank you very much for your help.
The command line went in fine and after rebooting all the problems I had with LMDE vanished.
I am most grateful

Re: 686-PAE Kernel
Sorry to hijack the thread but when I tried the command above it says that linux-image-686 cannot be found
Any ideas ?

It was a transitional package, it's not there anymore. Use linux-image-686-pae.
