Not really a Linux User yet since I'm stuck with a frozen desk top and a blank "Welcome Screen "
The mouse seems to work but can't click on anything.
There may be a thread on this somewhere else but the search doesn't work through Tapatalk so I'll have to find out the old-fashioned way.

UPDATE
Looks like a AMD/NVIDIA problem. I'm trying the solutions from the sticky.
Thanks in advance to everyone who contributed to the thread!

Re: New to Linux
Thank you everyone for the greetings and advice.
After reading everything (nearly) I abandoned LM16 and tried LM13 Mate.
Ran into the slideshow problem and tried the fix.
(see: http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.p ... 52#p844012)
Install crashed, disgorging a half screen of error message starting "Can not handle kernel NULL" or something like that.
Briefly lost will to live.
Will try something else later in the week.
And so I remain,
