Press and hold the ALT key, grab the window with your left mouse button, and drag it in such a way that you can see the buttons you need.

I just got TB and FF working on Mint 19. Thanks to all the helpful replies I got.

Glad to hear it's working. People will probably see it sooner if you post your thanks in the same thread(s) as you asked the question(s).

i too im wanting to upgrade from Tara to Cindy and im still new to Mint. i did setup a dual boot on this PC running win 7 alongside . not sure what im suppose to i see posts saying do fresh install . i did setup time shift on here so i know if mess up i can run Live CD i made ... i was hoping to to...

Look, we're trying to help you here. We can't do that without any information. You were making progress by stating the actual symptoms you were experiencing instead of what you thought would be the solution... I was hoping we'd be getting somewhere.

I keep having video playback stuttering problems in firefox on youtube , and even after enabling hardware acceleration in the about:config, I'm still having problems. was hoping that updating the driver would solve it. (bolding mine) Okay, so now that we've arrived at the actual question: it would ...

That ware looks very very soft! I'm afraid there may be bugs though...

Is there a Linux history any place?

Here is a very brief overview and here is a more in-depth article. Wikipedia has a pretty good entry too.

For the installation and configuration phases, the defaults could be overridden though. It's pretty annoying when the system prompts for password repeatedly in those stages. This is clearly subjective, proven by the fact that it's never bothered me. I regard it as a tiny price to pay for the securi...

Wondering if I should delete thread

No, just let it stand, it's fine. It's a question that's asked and answered, for others to find; it's marked as solved, which makes that easier. That's the system working as intended.

Frankly, I only expect this to do relatively trivial things for him.

We'll see. In the meantime, he's spreading the message that it should be possible to work hard, play hard, get results, and yet treat others fairly and decently. I can't see that as a bad thing.

Mod note:
Threads merged. We don't need two about what is essentially the same topic. And please don't spread FUD.

What happens when you try to run a Windows program?

As far as I know, it should show up when it's needed... meaning, when you are trying to launch a .exe file. Once you have a program installed through Wine, that program should then show up on the menu.

Well, it seems that Elvis has left the building, and I don't think he'll be missed. We're done here.

@Moem
blijkbaar is er een OS herkenning en krijg je het bestand setup_kruidvat_fotoservice.tgz

Ah, mijn browser zal dat wel blokkeren.

Since I really have no need for Windows I think that the best thing is to start over again and reinstall Mint using the whole SSD, that way everything would be clean. Can I do this off of the original USB install stick, which I still have?

Yes, you can.

I've removed your all-caps and huge letters again, please stop doing that.

But I need antivirus,

No, you don't. This isn't Windows. Switch on your firewall, and you're done. You can find it by typing 'fire' in the menu search box.

Even here in the forum, when two spaces are put in after a period, the two spaces are changed to one space.

Probably because in most of the world, that's how it's done. This is an international forum after all.
