That worked thanks :) bit of a newbie to linux just wondering how did you find out about that? I couldnt find it anywhere theres plenty of terminal commands on the net knew it would work through the terminal but nothing came up I discovered search providers originally via the Cinnamenu alternative ...

Any suggestions? On all Mint distros using the lightdm/slickgreeter combo it should just be a case of opening the Login Window application and adding the appropriate username to the Automatic Login section. No need to go hunting rats. Here's the Mint 19.2 version - earlier versions didn't IIRC offe...

OK a slightly different approach that avoids the long sleeps and the need to worry about the effect of suspend / resume. As written the script wakes every 60 seconds to quickly check the CURRENT_TIME against the NEXT_TIME. If NEXT_TIME is in the future it will go back to sleep. If not it will apply ...

...that I may have missed?

Yep. There is a minimum height of favourites setting in the right click > configure GUI for the stock menu in Cinnamon 4.0.x +

You have....
will enable the default but very well-hidden duckduckgo search provider in the Cinnamon menu.

You'll need to Ctrl-Alt-Esc to restart Cinnamon having run the command.

Try /usr/share/code/code

The deb package doesn't appear to put the executable in the default locations that would be in your $PATH so you need to launch it with the full path.

Edit to add - or try the suggestions in Flemur's linked thread....

I haven't got time right now, but I'll see if I can get the systemd service working my end and will update with instructions assuming I'm successful. It was the answer starting as below that at a glance looked to be the correct approach. This answer is based on askubuntu.com/a/661747/394818 (as also...

Oh lol, I thought we were talking about MATE. Cosmos is a MATE screensaver, and the instructions I gave you were for enabling it in MATE. I cannot help you with Cinnamon screensavers, but there's likely one that can do a slideshow, too (the cosmos pictures are in /usr/share/backgrounds/cosmos/, you...

Does it honour the system theme if you launch it from the terminal with this command?

I think I understand what this does, but I would like to make a change and I don't know how. Instead of exiting from the newly started process, I would like to terminate the previously existing process and continue on with the new one. This would give a reset of the themes based on the current time...

See viewtopic.php?f=143&t=298942 for a link to the blog post with upgrade instructions.

As an experiment please see if changing the vsync method in Settings > General in the 19.2 install makes any difference to the reproducibility of the crash.

Mmm - not keen on the refresh icon...

Can you run ls ~/.local/share/cinnamon/applets in a terminal just to double check there is no left overs of applying that patch there. If there is a menu@cinnamon.org folder in there it will be overriding the current 19.2 version and this might be the cause of the issue. if there is nothing in there...

Nope that looks fine. One obvious thing to check that I forgot. You haven't inadvertently disabled the action in Nemo Plugin preferences? https://i.imgur.com/vtwDzMH.png if it's checked there and still not showing double check that you can bring up the background settings module from the terminal.. ...

I will check again though.

Actually it is working in master now

Don't think so, I saw that commit and I checked for the bug briefly in an Install with the Alpha PPA a few days ago and it still seems to be an issue. I will check again though. I kind of feel responsible as it was my bug report in the 19.1 beta that led to the quick fix for pkexec that broke more t...
