Hi, thanks for the tip on how to install 5.14. And you are right, that version didn't solve the problem It's not critical for me, but it's nice to know it's a known problem at least, it means a fix is probably forthcoming!

Upon searching a bit more, it seems many Ubuntu users solved this by upgrading to Kernel 5.14 or 5.15, but those aren't available in update manager.

Hi, I am not sure since when the problem is there since I rarely put the laptop in sleep mode, but right now, it will not wake up after closing the lid. I have to restart completely. The laptop is a Dell Inspiron with a Ryzen 5 4500U CPU, so it is running on kernel 5.13 because of that. I also check...

I'll mark this as solved since that thread, and links from it, gave me my answer(but not a satisfying resolution sadly). From what I gathered, if I want an update through the official repo, it won't happen since only ubuntu 20.10+ is getting TB 78. And I don't want to deal with manual installation. ...

Thanks! I did a search but the "78" kept getting excluded from the search so I didn't see that thread.

Is it possible? I can't find a newer version than 68 in the software store.

Weird, I wish I knew linux more to take a guess as to why I met that problem.

Marking this solved thanks all!

FINALLY! sudo nano /etc/systemd/resolved.conf there I enable mDNS globally [Resolve] #DNS= #FallbackDNS= #Domains= #LLMNR=no MulticastDNS=yes # <<<------ This line #DNSSEC=no #DNSOverTLS=no #Cache=no-negative #DNSStubListener=yes #ReadEtcHosts=yes then I have to enable it for the interface sudo syst...

Update: I ran 2 tests on my older laptop.(had to use my older laptop since mint 18.3 kernel is too old for the new laptop and the display doesn't work) 1- I tried Mint 20 live CD and tried to ping plex.local. It didn't work(exact same message as above) 2- Tried Mint 18.3 live CD and tried to ping pl...

The local network is s simple one, so yup, everything is on the same subnet. avahi is present ps -e | grep avahi 589 ? 00:00:00 avahi-daemon 669 ? 00:00:00 avahi-daemon libnss-mdns is there libnss-mdns is already the newest version (0.14.1-1ubuntu1). nsswitch.conf looks fine: hosts: files mdns4_mini...

plex.local is actually a ubuntu server running the plex app. I can ping it using plex.local from all my other machine(windows or linux, like my raspberry pi) I was also able to ping it from my old laptop, which ran linux mint 19. My problem is thus only with this newly installed mint 20. It refuses ...

Looks like it does the DNS request, but stop there. No mDNS. 1530 4.933685808 192.168.0.32 192.168.0.1 DNS 81 Standard query 0xdddf A plex.local OPT 1531 4.933866068 192.168.0.32 192.168.0.1 DNS 81 Standard query 0xa2ee AAAA plex.local OPT 1534 4.957757297 192.168.0.32 192.168.0.1 DNS 70 Standard qu...

Yes, pinging by IP works fine. Regular DNS resolution works too(i.e. internet domain) Only trying to reach local machines by their name doesn't work from the mint laptop. I haven't disabled anything, it's a clean install. I'm very familiar with wireshark on windows, but alot less with linux utils.(c...

Hi,
the plex.local name is indeed valid. Only the newly installed mint laptop can't ping it or resolve it's name. It's the same with any other local computer I have, mint cannot resolve their ip by hostname.

Hi, got a new laptop and installed a fresh linux mint 20 on it, but it refuse to resolve local hostname.

ping plex.local
ping: plex.local: Name or service not known

Many old post mention avahi, but I chek and it is installed, no idea where to look after that?

Some time ago, kernel 5.0 started being offered as an update, but I,m staying clear of it because I saw reports that it has some regressions for my laptop hardware(dell xps 13 9343) But I'm wondering why Mint wants to upgrade to kernel 5.0 since it's not even a LTS kernel? And also, I have found how...

Couple of problems during the upgrade. I am really glad for the timeshift tool that is now included in 18.3, I was able to get back to a stable 18.3 OS. :D Problem 1: Even though mintupgrade download download all the packages, there are still some steps that connect to the mint packages repo, and lu...

To solve a DNS issue while using wifi in hotels or such, I have to add the arguments --script-security 2 --up /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf.sh --down /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf.sh when I start openvpn.(or I can add them to the client ovpn config file too, both work) But i see no way to add th...

That worked, thanks! I was able to correctly connect the mouse using bluetooth after this, and even my cellphone. Both failed before. I was so fed up with this wireless card that I have ordered an Intel one, but I'm glad bluetooth is now working until it gets here. Only the "jumping around"...
