Re: Rhythmbox crashes when connecting iPhone via USB
I've also had this problem since mint 20, but with an iPod. Rhythmbox won't run for more than 20 seconds whenever my iPod (nano gen3) is connected. I'd like to put some different music on it before it dies. :D inxi -Fxz System: Kernel: 5.13.0-22-generic x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: N/A Desktop: Cinnamo...

Re: Installing new BIOS?
In some of my own laptop experiences; It can be bad or not fully seated SODIMM RAM, a fried or not fully seated drive(hard, CD/DVD, etc.), or the CMOS button battery. Or a combination of those. Many, MANY, many hours were wasted in order to bring you this advice. And in only one case was it a fried ...

Re: Recording from vinyl with Audacity
Tried pactl and it just said 25 and that's it. The alsamixer is very confusing and I may go back to it, but this is seriously techie. Meanwhile, I have found that the system recognizes the RCA to USB cabling (I'm using a Roxio package I found at a store). Here's what I get: https://forums.linuxmint...

Re: Sound
Hi,
If the sound app isn't working you can try going to a terminal and typing:
You can use the arrow keys to select which output device to adjust and up/down arrow to change volume. M to mute[MM]/unmute[OO].
I had it happen to me once on a new Linux install and that fixed it.

Re: Recording from vinyl with Audacity
If you can't figure out which one is line-in or listen to it, you can open a terminal window and type: pactl load-module module-loopback this will turn on loopback so you can hear what is playing through line-in. If that works, remember that for loopback you'll have to do it again if you log-out or ...

I was looking for the Power Management to be On, and it is. Everything looks like it should, and I'm not sure if 14dBm is max power, so my experience stops here. I did see another post in this forum where you can sudo apt-get install laptop-mode-tools Possibly it could be of help to you. The post is...

Re: loosing battery power big time when using wifi
It looks obvious that your wifi card is transmitting at max power. There may be a way to set the adapter's config to lower it, but I haven't seen of a way to do it. I don't use wireless networking myself, but this interests me too. And, I've seen a few other users around here complaining about the v...

For Cmar: There should be a setting in your BIOS for "Enable Legacy USB Keyboard and mouse support" or something similiar. It depends on what motherboard you are using. See if you can find it and make sure to enable it. If it is already enabled, you may want to try Enabling Plug and Play O...

Re: [SOLVED] 2 TB drive seen in BIOS, not seen in Mint
No prob. Wasn't worried. The more I thought about your last post, the more I was convinced that a new cmos batt would fix it. Now you've got me thinking that I could use a NAS.

Re: 2 TB drive seen in BIOS, not seen in Mint
That would be an easy fix. Let us know if it works out. If not, let me know the MB and Raid card type.
I know that drained CMOS batteries can drive people mad, especially Laptop owners. It's amazing what a buck fifty battery can fix.

Re: Number of scrolled lines
If you are using Firefox,
go to Edit>Preferences>Advanced>General and click Use AutoScrolling. I am not sure about how to set a number of lines when using the mousewheel. Possibly someone else may know.

Re: 2 TB drive seen in BIOS, not seen in Mint
Does the array show up if you type:
and/or
(Lowercase L on both)
Also, what Motherboard and Raid card are you using? It could be a simple BIOS setting or boot order setting that is causing it to be missed.
Code: Select all
sudo parted -l
Code: Select all
sudo fdisk -l
