Linux Mint Forums

This is a quote from another forum member; "It may be worth asking Dropbox for a clarification.

The other option is to sell your stamp collection.





























HA! HA! HA!

I've also had the email from Dropbox but am unsure of my next steps. They seem to be insisting on ext4 format but, in the detail, they comment on the consequences of an external HDD not being connected at startup and the risk of deleted files from every instance of DropBox Does the move to ext4 eli...

You could eliminate the swap partition completely. If you have 16 gb of RAM you will probably never need even 1 gb of swap. I have been running Linux for years, right now openSUSE Leap 15, and I have never used a swap partition. I have 16 gb of RAM and swap will never be used.

catweazel is back in ... viewtopic.php?f=18&p=1504892#p1504892 (31 July 2018)

That's very kind of you Michael. Thank you.

I'm glad to see you back. I was sad to read this whole thread.

I have experienced this problem and started threads about it here at this forum as well as the Ubuntu forum. Unfortunately the "bug" is baked in and no kernel patch will fix the problem. I finally gave up and moved on to openSUSE.

has no screen globber I'm not familiar with the term "screen globber", can you explain what you mean with other words? There are dozens of email clients on Linux. Being a Linux user, I wouldn't know what is unique about Microsoft Mail (other than forwarding everything you do to Microsoft HQ). From ...

What is a "screen globber? Never heard that term before.

I got the email, I suspected a scam but I opened it up no problems. I did not buy one.

Yes this is a bug. I hope that the developers correct it.

One thing about life is certain, we all die!

Please define "death."

I understand what you are saying and I agree that there are certain trade-offs with what ever OS a person uses, whether it is a Linux distro or Windows. If you are able to dual boot for awhile so that you can get the feel of Linux, I think that you will be happy. In the beginning you said that the t...

Thank you guys for that information. I am guessing that this is a bug with the new Linux Mint. I sure hope that the developers fix this sleep issue so that I can continue to use Linux Mint because I really like this distro.

Thanks again,

Rocky

Does anybody have any suggestions.

Thanks,
Rocky

Hello All, I would like to use Linux Mint as my main OS but I can not because of sleep issues. I am dual booting Linux Mint 19 with Windows 10 on an old Haswell based PC with no aftermarket GPU, just internal Intel graphics. The problem is that Linux Mint 19 Cinnamon does not always go to sleep. My ...

Since Android is based off of Linux, it proves once again that Linux is the number 1 operating system in the world.

I'm thinking that the OP simply posted this cryptic post and completely left the stadium. Curious!!!

I can't find nautilus cd burner. gnomebaker don't work. brasero don't work. I miss k3b burning program. I can go back to centos 5 and use k3b or other linux distro's that have k3b. :( The good news for you is that if you are running Linux Mint 17.x or Linux Mint 18.x, k3b is right there in the soft...

Xfburn. K3b is useless.

What does this even mean? Without data your post is useless.

k3b is listed in the software manger of Linux Mint Cinnamon 18.3
I just went to the software store and installed it no problem.
