It's already been requested and added for Nemo next version...

Don't see the point personally for a confirmation for the inherently non permanent move to trash but at least it's optional.

Often a problem with /etc/fstab. You should be able to log in to a console in emergency mode and then sudo nano /etc/fstab to correct whatever the issue is.

After hearing about the hardware Intel bug Zombieload I disabled Hyperthreading in BIOS. Couldnt notice any difference in performance while browsing. And surfing online is the only thing I do with my computer. So I disabled HT via grub commandline one my dual core i5-2430M taking it from 4 virtual ...

Hey, Does anybody know approximately how many users are there worldwide who use Linux Mint ? I just noticed the main page of >> https://community.linuxmint.com/ It says "Users by edition" ? What is this ? Users part of the Community or users of LM ? If the second, they are way less than 10 000 user...

It's styled by the grouped-window-list-thumbnail-menu selector. Yeah I know you have thumbnails disabled in grouped windowe list settings, but it's still effectively a cut-down thumbnail. If it's annoying you your best best is in The Gouped Window list setting configure it to show thumbnails only on...

I believe the utility used is tiger available from the software repos. Intrigued by WHVM's report I installed and ran it yesterday. It takes forever to complete it's analysis and my output is much of a muchness with WHMV's. I'm satisfied that none of the reported issues are actually a problem worth ...

Best is rather subjective...the links I posted here, aswell as the last reply to that thread might help you in your search - viewtopic.php?p=1538544#p1538544

Is this also possible for Nemo, or other programs, and if yes, how? Unfortunately not running Cinnamon - the header bar type styling (with a menu button) is a Gnome 3 default, whilst the titlebar + menubar styling is the default in all Mint desktops (Cinnamon / Mate / XFCE). Some Gnome 3 apps (e.g ...

DBG[xfdesktop-thumbnailer.c:318] xfdesktop_thumbnailer_queue_thumbnail(): file: /home/mire/Desktop/aaronphs_hawaii.jpg not supported Then i run: rm ~/.cache/thumbnails I get output from terminal: rm: cannot remove '/home/mire/.cache/thumbnails': Is a directory Sorry the command to clear the thumbna...

It's permanent, with the caveat that if you stay on Mint 19.1 after Mint 19.2 (with Cinnamon 4.2.x) is released, and if Cinnamon 4.0.10 gets another maintenance update there's no guarantee that a hypothetical 4.0.11 will have the patch so you might need to reapply after updating Cinnamon. It's a goo...

I don't know how WharfRat does that (i.e. i'm also a Linux Mint Newbie), but in general i only update 'level 3' (green colour) updates. 4&5 i usually wait until they become level 3 at a later date. Probably over-cautious but i've not 'killed' a Mint system yet :) ZakGordon - correct me if I'm wrong...

Can you run sudo chown -Rc $USER:$USER $HOME again and post the output if any.

Also after running the above command if still not working try removing the thumbnail cache rm ~/.cache/thumbnails

Where are the problematic files in the file storage system ? In your home directory? On an external disk? The output of this command run in a terminal inxi -Fxxxzd will help others help you. Copy the output from the terminal window and paste into your reply in between [code][/code] tags.

https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon/issues/8285 is more relevant and includes workarounds pending the patch that has been applied upstream being rolled out to users.

Actually, the existence of (Mint) wine-installer is "old news", introduced in Mint 19.1, Mint 19.1 Release Notes - "Wine 4.0" / "Upgrading Wine to version 4" . It's new (post release) in both 19.1 and 19 - Clem has recently updated the release notes for both having added wine-installer to the Tessa...

Also, how often should I be checking Update Manager? The update manager 'shield' icon in the system tray will tell you if you've got outstanding updates at any point - a fully updated system has a green tick. I guess you've only got that number of updates pending if this is the first time you've op...

Also, when I make a new user account with admin privileges, non of the problems occur. So its something to do with my main account. That's good news - it means you haven't broken the system python modules. File "/usr/share/cinnamon/cinnamon-settings/bin/imtools.py", line 623, in <module> if Image.V...

I was thinking of seeing if I could work out how to get it to test if any particular url derived from the search term actually resolves to a valid IP before displaying the search result. A project for the near future. My approach is that if the user selects the option to open in a browser then it's...

Just run it through a regular expression to see if it fits the pattern at least, it's what I do in my menu (or rather, I first check if the search string is over 5 characters long and contains a dot before running it through that, for efficiency). I was thinking of seeing if I could work out how to...

Got a little help on the Ubuntu site and found that kernel 4.17 would allow it to run, but not all the time. Asked again on this forum and got told no support as I was running a later kernel. I know other users are running later kernels than supplied ! 4.17 is still an unsupported kernel in Mint (a...
