Linux Mint Forums

Hello back @Lum

Can't say regarding gaming--but utmost stability is a mainstay for Linux apps.
Welcome to the forums

I am hoping that I will get Mint and start to use it more and more as I get used to having a machine that works again. One day it would be nice to contribute here and help new Minters - although I have a long way to go before I am at that level! I am hoping today is the day you will begin your jour...

Hi Everyone, I purchased an external card reader and firstly formatted it in Windows to FAT32. I tested it by copying files to and from. It all worked perfectly. I then used the external reader hub to connect to the Mint computer. It worked flawlessly too. Whether the laptop's SD port is broken or ...

OK I did it--I just installed 18.3 MATE in the same configuration and there are no issues with
lid closing/opening suspend.
Therefore I surmise this to be an anomaly associated with this particular machine's architecture
when using Xfce.

Make sure to get your Mint updates. In your Menu select Software Sources Click the Restore defaults button. There will be a dialog open asking you to update your cache Click Yes. After which you should get your Mint updates. After this you can address the bad repository issue. Keep your Mint updated...

Just leave the 10 percent-ish at the end of the drive unallocated and you should be good to go

Hi all41. I don't have a laptop. I don't use suspend. But I do drive by a Holiday Inn Express on my way to work! I have seen tons of reports similar to yours on the web that don't seem to be getting properly solved. But I did get some hints of things to investigate. Are you using the lock screen on...

I first started using the Ben Trabetere pseudonym in the 1980s when a merchant, I want to say Radio Shack, needed my name and telephone number in order to complete a transaction. That is also the time when I started giving merchants the telephone number for Time/Temperature for Fort Worth, Texas (8...

will get you the gui goods
You will get a menu entry.

My netbook Compaq CQ-58 had been running 17.3 MATE successfully but I recently decided to reinstall a fresh copy of 19 MATE--but found Tara to be rather demanding of the minimal resources available, so I reverted to a freshly installed 18.3 Xfce. I am pleased with the decision--this is far less reso...

Hi All, I Am a Linux user who uses many distros. (Debian family, Redhat family, Alpine, and experimenting with the BSDs) I recently downloaded LinuxMint, and think I will recommend it to anyone I convert to Linux. Hi JohnpaulTH, Welcome to the forums. +1 on recommending Mint. How do you get along w...

For FF I like the 'Dark Reader' Extension.
I have tried others but this works best for me.

Just installed Mint Cinnamon 19.0. Did erase everything and LVM. I usually do "Something Else" and create: /dev/sda1 ext /dev/sda5 swap /dev/sda6 ext4 home /dev/sda7 ext4 extra space at end. This is rather strange-- /dev/sda1 would normally be mounted as / Plus partitioning the extra space seems to...

Plus getting better with every release

Where is 'Disks Utility? Dear all41 and others, After all the to-ing and fro-ing, can I therefore assume that although this laptop has a card reader slot that it does NOT have a card reader inside? It seems like the only plausible answer! Peter Linu Hi Peter, I have seen card reader slots with bent...

sudo chown jerry:jerry -R /media/jerry/EXT4 An another way: sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /media/jerry/EXT4 Thank you! That worked. It must have been a group ownership problem. If I may, why does the EXT4 partition mount as root being the owner on my other computer (desktop)? It's not the partition but...

It should be in your Menu.
Open the Menu and type disks to show

How do I format an SD card in FAT32? I have tried using Gparted but it will not recognise the card.

Does it show using the Disks utility?

$ systemd-analyze critical chain:

Code: Select all

Unknown operation critical.

The correct inquiry here is
systemd-analyze critical-chain
The missing hyphen is why you did not get correct
terminal output

Have you tried: Highlight the text . . do not right-click, but go to the place where you want to paste, and use a middle-click to paste. ? nope, never even thought to try that, foreign to my ears. never even thought to try that, foreign to my ears.never even thought to try that, foreign to my ears....
