Re: Reduce resume time
Could it be that it is looking for a swap file/partition that is no longer there? Yes, or a partition that got reformatted and assigned a different UUID when installing another linux distribution alongside Mint. You guys nailed it... Not swap. /tmp My signature...next installation I up the size of ...

[SOLVED] Reduce resume time
Been a while since I've been here! Mint 19.1 is taking a LONG time to boot. When I ALT-F1 it says "Gave up looking for Resume/Suspend...." I do use Suspend sometimes. How can I shorten the time it takes to look for a Suspend image? When I boot frsh with no Suspend it takes forever. Thanks ...

Re: Clem Lefebvre interview
Great read! I was turning into a Linux Snob, and liked Arch because of the tweakability. Unfortunately, that also brings instability. After my 5th crash, my Manager said, "Get something that WORKS, or go back to Windows. I remembered good old Mickey-Mouse unwashed user Mint. Haven't been told t...

Re: First crash in LM 19.1 - Possibly related to Linux Firmware update. Help! (maybe Solved)
Hmm i have zero in the /var/crash folder? Thatnks! I've had a couple issues since the last update as well, but they flash so fast I can't read them. I did have something in my crash folder, but I knew what it was, just totally forgot about that folder. Now we'll see if the other issue persists.

Re: Linux Mint Appreciation Thread. Because it is the best OS on the planet!
Very interesting take.
Not sure what was used to write the operating "environment" for these, but when I was working in aerospace everything was written using ADA, albeit that was in the 80's.

Well, "Sharon" is kinda cute, but does anyone have an idea of how to make the installer recognize the partition as EXT4 and not ETX2?

Re: VLC could not decode the format "h264"
Have you updated VLC recently?
I'm having no issues with it, but since I have an nVidia card I loaded all the nVidia codecs as well.
You can get the latest VLC codecs from their website, but that wouldn't really explain the "Run Once" issue.

Re: Linux is Not Windows
I wasn't paying attention. I do that now. Depending on your login manager, there is a down pointing caret, or a "gear" on the login window. You click that and select your choice of WMs. In KDE, on my system, it was in the upper left-hand corner of the screen. It said "Plasma", bu...

Re: Linux is Not Windows
I really miss that "feature" from Mandrake where you could load different window managers and find one you liked. Back in the day, I think I spent more time in KDE than in anything else. KDE was always too "heavy" for me. It looked good, but with a lot of overhead. I settled on ...

Re: lightdm doesn't start, possible GPU driver problem (i915)
The Directories mentioned were the ONLY ones move to the SSD?
Did you copy and paste, or did you use some other method to move them?
Have you tried looking on the SSD with Show Hidden Files set to see if there's something that was moved by accident?
And, did you label the SSD as Home?
