Thank you. I did as hawaiihemd suggested and it did fix things. I'm puzzled why it broke to begin with. Weird. The machine usually just sits there and I run some ham radio apps that rarely need attention. It must have been working when I set them up, but somewhere along the way, it broke. Thanks. I'...

I don't know how long my system has been running like this, but my sudo password fails and yet if I use su, it works? The system: Linux Mint 20.3 Cinnamon Ver. 5.2.7 Linux Kernel: 5.15.0-101-generic Here is a copy of a terminal session: **************************************** dennis@dennis-Mint:~$ ...

I have a new Beribes WH202A bluetooth headphone/mic that does work in the Windows 11 on my dual boot machine. However, it worked once or twice on LM, but usually doesn't and I can't seem to find a way to make it work. When it did work, I messed with the "Monitor of WH202A" in the Pulse Aud...

This saga just keeps getting stranger and stranger. As noted above, using the "devicepairingwizard" after hitting Windows key +R, I can successfully pair to the internal bluetooth device and all is well. Last night, Mainline kernels did an update and added kernel: 6.5.0-060500-generic . It...

Since the device does send a message that it did pair, and then immediately disconnects, I would think there would be a log somewhere that would record the disconnect and what did the disconnect. Where would one find such a log?

The new device made no difference, still does exactly the same thing.

Weird!

I finally had some success getting the internal BT device to work with W11. Instead of using he usual BT tool in W11, do a command line by hitting the Windows key + R, then type in "devicepairingwizard" It may take a while, but if the BT device is looking to connect it will show up in the ...

I changed it from "0" to "1" and rebooted, etc., but no change: You can create a udev rule to disable the internal bluetooth by creating the following file: sudo -H nano /etc/udev/rules.d/81-bluetooth-hci.rules Paste the following in SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}==&...

I did check the hybrid shutdown in W11, it was enabled so I disabled it and did several reboots. No change. What is really interesting is the BT does connect, issues a PIN code, I type it in and until I hit enter, it does wait. Apparently it can connect and claims it is paired once I enter the PIN. ...

I'll check the W11 next time I boot to windows.

What really gets me is, using bluetoothctl, I get a message "Pairing successful," and then a second later, it dumps it.

Well, it certainly does sound like we have the same problem, mine being the keyboard. Oddly, I haven't had too much trouble with the Cystero 750 BT headphones, at least so far. What was really strange is that for about a week the keyboard did function without any problems. Hopefully, in the near fut...

I'm sorry I forgot to post that most important info. I knew better too!

I have one of these new Bee-link minicomputers. I have a keyboard (BT) that I am using for German lessons, so it has the German character set. I have spent many hours trying to get this thing to pair with the computer with no luck. The onboard bluetooth device isn't working with linuxmint, so I've a...

Spamegg, you are an absolute genuis!!!!!!!! I did as you suggested with Timeshift and everything came up an running as if nothing had ever happened. I'm am so blown away with Linux Mint, that would have NEVER happened with any of my old Windows systems. Genius, sheer genius. I won't touch anything o...

Now I've really messed things up. First apologies on the version, I've been working on two different systems, the V21.1 system is remote system in another building that I was attempting to get a VNC server running on, unsuccessfully. The one that I'm posting about here, according to the GRUB listing...

I'm showing version: Python 2.7.18

How would I update this?

Thanks

I did a fresh install from a USB stick and wiped out the old system. I'll have to see if I can figure out how to check what I have for Python.

Thanks

I've been trying run Software Manager on a fresh Linux Mint install, 21.1. It just spins for about 20 seconds then nothing. I tried Mintinstall and I get the following: dennis@dennis-Mint-M720s:~$ mintinstall Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/linuxmint/mintinstall/mintinstall.py...

I have an ET-2750 Epson printer. I don't think this is a printer problem, since our Windows 10 machine is working fine with it. When I was trying to print a PDF from my Linux Mint Chrome browser, it would just print out one sheet, which is always the same, a "Cover sheet." I'm assuming thi...

I don't know why, but I think it has to do with the comment in the following web site, where it says that the client won't be able to upload files from Filezilla with out the procedure shown. It fixed my problem:
