Post a link to the TV tuner that you installed and we can definitely guide you through the set up.

Interesting handle on the cup. How well does it work for you?

I agree. I do not think that I could comfortably hold the cup but it looks way cool!!!!!

A good way to install Linux in a multi-boot scenario is to unplug your Windows drive and all other drives before you install Linux. That way you do not have to see a Grub menu at all. But your Linux system will still be able to communicate with the other drives after you plug them back in.

https://manpages.ubuntu.com/ (also you're off-topic ) can you point me in a good direction also i hope to build a paywalled site with parts of the web app built open-source i directly attribute and others a team will build. I am sorry but I do not understand this. This is Linux and I would expect m...

You sure did paste a lot of Google Chrome links to your task bar. Why? that's your answer - - right there - - Google Chrome is / has been opened on numerous occasions, & each "process" or version is currently running - - still. you can stop that from happening, in the Options menu of some programs:...

can you replace that link, with one that is an screen_shot of your screen ? can you just post an screen_shot of your PCs screen - - so that we can see the issue ?.

Yet there are you are, teaching newcomers stupid things with FUD. Your "advice" is way out of date. You need to catch up. Really...you claim..."Modern SSDs are capable of lasting for petabytes written, not merely the terabytes written specified by manufacturers".and..."In short, SSDs have a lifespa...

To the OP, You might have some mis-conceptions about SSDs. I have been using the same SSD for a dual boot since 2014, that seems like plenty of longevity to me. Most of my SSDs I bought between 2014 and 2016 and I have never had any kind of failure with an SSD. Every SSD that I have ever installed s...

I am just a VERY casual Linux user, so I might not correctly understand the OP's confusion. I am using Linux Mint Cinnamon and I have my desktop completely clean with no icons at all. Because of that I just have one file icon on my system tray that I use to access my entire file system. When I click...

To the OP, If I were you I would consult with your IT manager because messing around with your Institution's PC might mess things up and be against policy.

What happens if we have many saved kernels on a hard drive whose image is mounted on different hardware, why erase all newer kernels I have the space; Form a list wish to select a boot kernel and for that choice to survive a reboot. So your Linux system is stored on two separate hard drives? Or do ...

To the OP, If I were you I would forget about both of those Linux Mints on your USB stick and I would completely format that USB stick and put Linux Mint Xfce on it and then use that USB stick to install Xfce on that old PC. Part of your problem is having two Linux Mint distros on one installation U...

How did you activate this feature? I have two separate computers that I have done a clean install of 19.2 and I still can not replicate this feature that you speak of.

I wish that Linux Mint would automatically put the computer to sleep like other Linux distros. It hasn't worked since Linux Mint 17.x.

Maybe this can help:

Thank you for that link but I have a desktop computer.

For Xfce left click the power managemen/battery icon on the panel and select power manager settings.

That does not work on Intel Haswel based PCs.

What I would like is for my machine to go to sleep. I have a 650 watt PSU and 5 fans, I would like this machine to go to sleep automatically after a specified period of time. Linux mint does not seem to offer that function but other Linux distros do it very easily.

With brasero, you can make an image of the cd on your hdd (or other cd). To me that is often the easiest way.

And then type in all of the metadata by hand? That does not seem easy at all!!!!

^^^^ I like that Soundjuicer retrieves the metadata from the internet. Very important for this hobby.

Where did you buy the stick? It might be a fake.
