Install updates, I think that Bluetooth was fixed in a newer 4.15 kernel

That did the trick.

Upgrade the kernel from 4.15.0-20 to 4.15.0-55.

Thanks much!

I just finished the install and that is just about as slick as can be. I'm playing with in now but that was impressive. Beats the heck out of MS Windows. Just I'll see if there are any issues over the next couple of day, but right now? Seriously cool.

Both the pro and the con are the same thing: You are preserving your application settings. Mostly a big convenience with a theoretical disadvantage of the possibility of incompatible settings that the much newer version of the application cannot properly handle anymore. But should that happen (and ...

Kernel: 4.4.0-109-generic x86_64 (64 bit) Desktop: Cinnamon 2.8.8 Distro: Linux Mint 17.3 Rosa It's time to make the leap from Mint 17.3 to 19.1. Might as well go all the way. With that said I'm looking for a 'reality check' of installation options. I've got partition images saved as well as those p...

Kernel: 4.4.0-109-generic x86_64 (64 bit) Desktop: Cinnamon 2.8.8 Distro: Linux Mint 17.3 Rosa I understand that is no clear migration update from Mint 17 to Mint 18. That is actually fine as I want to rebuild this computer. However, I'd like to retain the applications that are on this current syste...

I have to say, this really bothers me and I've been a linuxmint user for a LONG time. The reason that Mint packages their own version of Firefox is to get the ad revenue from searches. If they are going to do that then they also need to stay on top of security updates like this as this one is reall...

I haven't seen the latest Firefox update 58.0.1 come though the official LM updater yet. It's been about 5 days since I saw the CERT Advisory. Any idea when this will show in the official channels?

Did those above having problems with not seeing the kernel change in their GRUB first run update-grub before rebooting???? Are we supposed to do so? Shouldn't Update Manager take care of that? I never had to do this till now, and never had problems before 4.13. I check a couple of different ways to...

Just as an FYI, today I got a Mint Update Manager update level 1, followed by a Level 5 kernel update. That update was to the patched 4.4.0-109-generic (or I assume it's patched from what I've read - still a Newbie in many ways). From: Kernel: 3.13.0-100-generic x86_64 (64 bit) Desktop: Cinnamon 2.8...

Kernel: 3.13.0-100-generic x86_64 (64 bit) Desktop: Cinnamon 2.8.8 Distro: Linux Mint 17.3 Rosa I have a deb package I'm trying to install. It fails with the message: Error Dependency not satisfied Libdbus-1-3 (>= 1.9.14) Is there anyway around this short of upgrading to a different version of Mint?

Kernel: 3.13.0-100-generic x86_64 (64 bit) Desktop: Cinnamon 2.8.8 Distro: Linux Mint 17.3 Rosa Firefox 57.0.1 Firefox spawns a number of processes called Web Process that tend to hog a lot of CPU and memory.

The reason I don't wade into the man pages is because it's like looking for a screw driver and having someone point you to Ace Hardware. I just want someone to point me to the screwdriver, not the entire warehouse. Which is why those of us with 'newbie' questions post in the Newbie section. This for...

For a long listing find /var/lib -type l -ls

In certain folders you'll need to use sudo.

Thank you for giving me something solid as a oppose to saying, "Look at the man pages." I appreciate it! That's exactly what I was looking for.

I'm looking to list all symbolic and hard links. I didn't see anything in the 'ls' command that was specific to just listing links.

Kernel: 3.13.0-100-generic x86_64 (64 bit)

From a terminal windows, what command can I use to recursively scan a directory and list all classes of links in that directory and subdirectories?

Is there a way to attach a local image file to a post in the Linux Mint Forums? Attaching a screen shot would be of use in many instance. Just wondering.

Thanks ya'll. Deleting the old kernel via Update Manager did the trick!
