Linux Mint Forums

you mean, boot live usb and use the integrated graphic card instead. and the run the command,because on nvidia nothin will show up. Ok, i will give it a try but that article is mainly about laptops with dual-graphic cards, i got a desktop.

any other ideas?

i keep thinking it may be hardware error or something broken. I admit i bought the card at second hand, is not new by any means and it may have issues...if that's the case, i must get a newer one. But i hope that is not the case, taking into account that it still displays very well on w10.

well i dont remember for sure...uefi probably cuz those newer and newer pc's cannot take linux in any other mode from what i experienced. I got some time ago both windows10 and linuxmint on same hdd on different partitions. And because windows was the 4 th option in that blind grub i couldn't see an...

no, i mean black screen, not blank. I dont get any linuxmint logo or blinking cursor..just nothing happens. its like the monitor is off..after a while if i let it too much, it eventually says no input and suspends(the monitor).

If bios splash doesn't even show, it is a mechanical issue. What do you mean by that? The card maybe not compatible with motherboard slot or? i mean that the vga cable cannot be broken ,in the same position on the monitor and same slot on nvidia card windows shows up but anything else no. If i get ...

Hi all. I got an Nvidia GeForce210 card which works perfectly on windows 10. But on linux mint 19 installed on other hdd id doesnt show annything even if system boots just fine. And another thing...which may help you get a clue. Before upgrade, i used the internal realtek hd 2500 integrated card whi...

And, yes, secure boot was disabled.

Hi all. I've got a problem with my asus laptop. I got an integrated wifi card which doesnt work under any linux distro tested by me, and i 've tried plenty of. The only two OS which were able to successfully use it were windows 10 and that weird Endless Os. Which tells me it is ok but lacks specific...

Maybe some specific drivers are recommended?

does anyone has another idea? i searched a lot on the internet but didn't find anything to solve it.

well, i got bluetoothctl installed, and most of commands work properly...but my pc cannot see my phone! There are a lot of options but if i cannot discover my devices are useless. I even tried to pair forced just by typing pair and then the mac address, still didn't succeed. It said device not avail...

Hi all. I have a problem with a bluetooth adapter, which seems to be recognised by my desktop pc but not being able to detect any device when i try to find some. I tried many phones and a bluetooth speaker but none worked. i could use a little help :D here are some command outputs: $ lsusb Bus 001 D...

Well in this pc I installed ( I tried at least) a few more versions of Linux such as Ubuntu 16 and other Linux mint editions until i found this one which is better than all of those. I guess when i installed this mint 18 it found a previously installed grub and didn't change it because it was functi...

grub: Installed: 0.97-29ubuntu68 Candidate: 0.97-29ubuntu68 Version table: *** 0.97-29ubuntu68 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status grub-pc: Installed: (none) Candidate: 2.02~beta2-36ubuntu3.2 Version table: 2.02~beta2-36ubuntu3.2 500 500 http:...

I think i solved soemthing.
I used grub-customizer instead of startup-manager and yes, it worked.
I switched the kernel with 4.4.038 instead of .4.4.036 and now it shuts down properly. I took a few tests and each time it was well.
I hope it stays like this .
But unfortunately no sound on jacks

i did put a non zero value but no succes...i used both grub config file and the program startup-manager.....but i figgured out a weird fact.... i remembererd first attempt when i removed speech-dispatcher and put nomodeset argument on grub lines.....the i had only 1 proper shutdown without pressing ...

I tried that too, but it only wants the current kernel, others it doesnt switch to them, in software manager.
And in grub list it also does not appear, i am not even able to select when i boot the desired option , even if the timeout is not zero, i set it myelf to a few seconds....so what to try next?

i did register it and ran grub-update, but no effect except for just one correct shutdown. I will look forward to update all programs update manager wants to and see if any changes. Also i may try change the kernel with another better one but not sure how to do it safely.
