Here is an additional script you can use for the WA images: #!/bin/bash shopt -s globstar for file in **/IMG-????????-WA????.jpg; do name="${file##*/}" date="${name:4:8}" if [[ $date == *[!0-9]* ]]; then echo "$file: date '$date' is not all digits" else echo "$fil...

Here's an alternative script that finds all IMG_YYYYMMDD_hhmmss.jpg files and modifies them: #!/bin/bash shopt -s globstar for file in **/IMG_????????_??????.jpg; do name="${file##*/}" date="${name:4:8}" time="${name:13:6}" if [[ $date == *[!0-9]* ]]; then echo "$...

I don't know of a GUI that will do this, which I why I have a script to fix some of my photos. Essentially you need to parse the filename to get the date and time, then use exiftool to set these new values. I've included a very simplified version of my script here, which you simply need to save to ...

I need to bulk edit the EXIF data of thousands of pictures. For some reason (I guess exporting/importing from and to google photo), the pictures have the wrong data set. I want to take the data and time from the file name (ie. IMG_20220102_173812) and use this data to correct the EXIF. In this case ...

I just installed Linux Mint 21 Cinnamon 5.4.12, I would like to have the screen shut off after the screensaver is active for several minutes. In the previous version of mint I had this worked out but I don't remember how. It was working on this specific laptop? There have been some issues related t...

I'm using the default screensaver, will try to remove that and install something different to start. I do not recommend removing the default screensaver. You may have misunderstood what I wrote. The default screensaver was not the other person's problem. Their problem went away when they used the d...

could it be that the screensaver is preventing to shut off the screen? Are you using the default screensaver which comes with Linux Mint Cinnamon? Someone else posted about an issue and they had installed a different screensaver. Once they removed it, all was working as it should have been. Thank y...

Settings for power manager: turn off screen when inactive for: 15 min AC; 10 min battery. delay before starting screensaver: 10 min could it be that the screensaver is preventing to shut off the screen? Before it didn't. Here system info: System: Kernel: 5.15.0-53-generic x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: g...

it is set "turn off when inactive for", but it seems not working.

Hi guys, I just installed Linux Mint 21 Cinnamon 5.4.12, I would like to have the screen shut off after the screensaver is active for several minutes. In the previous version of mint I had this worked out but I don't remember how. I'd like that after 15 min the computer goes in screensaver and lock ...

I tried with 2 new spare batteries and have the same problem.
Any idea why with the original battery the CPU is not scaled while with the original SPARE batteries, the CPU is getting scaled so much?
How does the system work?

You could try setting a different CPU scaling governor for the cores. There are various governors available out of the box, such as conservative , performance , and powersave ; the default is usually the latter. I'm not convinced that would be the right move though, as I'd have thought changing the...

Anyone with an idea or advice?
The laptop is unusable in this conditions

found the problem but I didn't find the solution: laptop on battery ~$ cpufreq-info | grep "current CPU frequency" current CPU frequency is 599 MHz. current CPU frequency is 562 MHz. current CPU frequency is 591 MHz. current CPU frequency is 740 MHz. laptop on AC ~$ cpufreq-info | grep &qu...

I've tried to install TLP and set "performance" also under battery but it doesn't change. Not sure what's happening but I'm sure it is some setting related thing that will put the laptop in battery savings mode even when the battery is 100% charged instead of only when the battery reaches ...

My laptop has no fan. The cpu is the mobile one (like the mack book air).

I don't think it is overheating because when I plug the charger the performance are good, when I unplug they drop and it works like when I had the old battery under 10% (like power saving mode)

I'm using Linux mint 19.3 cinnamon, kernel 5.4.0-91. Everything was working great, then I replaced the battery since the original one was almost at the end of the life. With the new one (original spare part), I have the same behaviour that I had with the old one when the charge was under 10%. The co...

"...you mean you're using the 5.13 and still have this issue?" Yep. The problem still persists. My computer uses the Qualcom Atheros QCA6174 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter, in case we have that in common. I also disabled Bluetooth recently, and that seemed to help for a while, but the ...

I don't have the 5.13 in the list. only 5.4 Right, I overlooked the fact that you're still running 19.3.... I recommend to give 20.2 a try. Do a fresh clean installation of it. is there a way to check what's wrong with the wifi and/or reset the connection as it was just a few days ago? it's becomin...
