Re: need help adding a custom python script as mate panel applet (not solved but I found an easier way)

irrelevant now, no need for a python app, I found a way to do it just with bash and yad. If anyone needs a simple repeating timed script starter that could be turned on and off by clicking a tray icon, you can borrow from my code: #!/bin/bash custom_icon_p="/path/to/grey_icon.png" custom_i...

[SOLVED] triggering timed script execution via panel icon (update: no need for python, can do it in bash)

I have managed to get compiz running splendidly and wrote a script that changes all wallpapers on ever desktop every six hours. But sometimes I want to turn it off because Stable Diffusion needs all my VRAM when working and loading new wallpapers into compiz can cause SD to run out of video memory. ...

Re: Need help regarding Compiz guys, please help me out.

Don't know if it's still important, but if you are interested in compiz try this: remove the installed ubuntu-repo-version and get this one: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wcbrow01/compiz-reloaded sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install compiz compiz-mate compiz-plugins-default compiz-plugins-extra co...

Re: Problem mit Gimp und Gummi

Danke für den Hinweis @O-rion, aber das Gimp-Problem ist bereits gelöst. Mit dem Script-Ordner funktionieren die Logos und die Flatpak-Version mit integriertem Resynthesizer scheint ohne Drawbacks zu laufen.

Re: Problem mit Gimp und Gummi

Voll strange. Ich hab gerade gesehen, dass es auch eine Flatpak Version von Gummi gibt und die testweise installiert. War aber ca 10 GB groß, weil sie ihre eigene TeXLive-full-Version mitbringt, und noch Teile von Gnome. Da ging dann zwar die Rechtschreibung, aber die von mir installierten Emerald-Z...

Problem mit Gimp und Gummi

Hi, ich habe gerade auf das aktuelle Mint gewechselt (mein voriges war "abgelaufen") und jetzt massive Probleme mit dem neuen Gimp. Kann ich irgendwie die Version 1 wiederkriegen? Resynthesizer (heal selection) geht nur in der Flatpak-Version, die praktischen Logos gar nicht. Sind in der F...

Re: Waterfox 2020 installation

The PPA seems to be gone (Feb 28 2021). Any idea how to keep waterfox updated now? I use waterfox as my main browser and want to keep it save, if possible using automatic system updates as before, and not by installing a new version manually each time. Thanks for any help in advance.

Re: Sharing external drives with local users

Thanks, but this looks a little like reinventing the wheel when you already have a fully functional car to me. Mint/Mate already has automount set up, only in the wrong way (in my case). So I just need to find where the system does that and change the config. It's not in /etc/udev so Mate must be us...

Sharing external drives with local users

I'm using Mint 19.3 Mate and there is an annoying issue: I have two users logged in and switch between them using ctrl+alt+F7/F8. When I plug in a USB-drive or stick both sessions try to automount it (although I ticked "do nothing" in Caja Settings for both users). Usually, the F8 session ...

Re: Make KDE obsolete by adding its unique features to cinnamon

Why be against it? If a feature is build in, you don't have to use it if you don't want it. It won't change Cinnamon as it is, it just offers more possibilities for people who want them. Others could use Cinnamon the same way as before.

Make KDE obsolete by adding its unique features to cinnamon

Hi, as the KDE Edition will be dropped, why not make it obsolete at all? For me and a lot of people I know there is just one reason to really use KDE: activities. To be able to have different desktops for different things and being able to switch between them on the fly. I for instance have a home o...

Re: Kde4 repo for LinuxMint 18?

Show me a video of Plasma5 with a grid displaying all activities (different workspaces) at once and I believe you. And I'd be happy to use it.

Until then, i think you didn't read my post completely or didn't understand what I was talking about at all.

Re: Kde4 repo for LinuxMint 18?

I am not wrong nor spreading falsehood about KDE. I never said screen edges and desktop grid don't work, I said they no longer work for what I want them for and what they used to do on Plasma4. About locking out root access, read what that the developer has to say: https://blog.martin-graesslin.com/...

Kde4 repo for LinuxMint 18?

Hi,
does anyone know a KDE4 repo with the latest version I can use to install it in Mint18? Plasma5 simply lacks a lot of functionality I am used to, so I would like to use the last kde4 version instead. Is this possible?

Thanks for any help in advance.
