Re: Firefox Update Disabled

Thank you for the detailed explanation. Got confused by another users topic about not updating. Then when I looked at my version I found that "Updates disabled by your system administrator". But as you explained that message is only for Firefox direct updates not for the regular LM updates...

Re: Document changes made since Installation?

Thank you, as I mentioned that I seemingly made a change which caused a problem and was unable to remember it. Started now to document my changes like how to connect LM to Wifi, Bluetooth, add languages, install applets and so on. Next time I do an installation from scratch I can refer to it which s...

Document changes made since Installation?

Is there a program or applet which recognizes and documents the changes I made to Linux Mint since the standard-installation? Reason to ask is that I obviously made a change which caused problems later to the Workspace-switcher Applet. A list of all changes would also be useful when reinstalling or ...

Re: Workspace-Switcher display in LM21

Cosmo, did as you said but with no changes. In the folder "workspace-switcher@cinnamon.org" is only one .json file. Compared it with the temporary users file - it is the same. Created another admin user-profile, workspace-switcher displays ok. Only the original profile is weird.

Re: Workspace-Switcher display in LM21

Did as you instructed me. And to my surprise in the new testing account workspace-switcher functions as used to. Back in the original account I removed workspace-switcher, then enabled it again and the faulty behavior is back. What is causing this? Changing permanently to a new account could be one ...

Thanks rossdv. I do have the right-click menu but Firefox was only a example. When I pull the File-Manager from the main screen to the external monitor it also starts to show on all workspaces. Happens with all programs. As with you, I seem to remember having changed some settings before but forgot ...
