Re: Blocked with conversion JPG > PDF

What have I done bad ? :shock: But writing the whole command line works ... we can say that this application is working now. I don't know, but dragging and dropping to a terminal window, whilst is supported is probably the most horrible way possible to get a file path to the terminal. Copy (from th...

Re: What's keeping my system awake?

Yous system has the same processor as this guy with the same issue - it appears to be a hardware specific issue with the Mint 22 kernel. He 'solved' it by migrating to LMDE. I suspect there is a workaround if you wanted to stay on Main Edition Mint, but it's hunting down what that workaround is will...

Re: New installed LM22 slow bootup (>45s)

I have just checked the vendor's website and I believe they have a newer BIOS available for download. It might be worth a try first.

Re: New installed LM22 slow bootup (>45s)

Thanks - so the initial kernel loading seems to slow right down during detection of USB ports and connected devices, and then hangs for 30 seconds before some error / failure with PCIE ports & devices. Lets have a look at the inxi -Fxxxrzc0 --usb output for this device. Might be worth checking i...

I may be wrong, but I believe that identifying a particular release with a codename is a requirement of the Debian packaging system and the naming of remote repos...so they have a little utility... :wink:

Re: Update Manager cache or data ?

I understand now, so you are wondering given that the location is excluded when taking a snapshot, would the current contents survive a snapshot being restored, so you could populate it with current debs and have them available to update the system post restore? I think so, but I would want to test ...

Perhaps the application own support is the way to go.

Re: Google Online Account setup not launching browser

I will just give up Good call, Gnome Online Accounts is a buggy POS and always has been. I'd recommend using rclone if you want to integrate remote storage into your system. It is command line (albeit with a beta webbased GUI), so a little learning curve, but it is rock solid. It is in the repos, b...

Re: Middle Click to Close

If you are using Cinnamon the action to take is customisable, but close window isn't one of the available options.

Re: Power Managment - Sleep and Suspend not working.

It might do, but very much overkill assuming you can boot into grub and just need to amend a dodgy boot parameter.
