Re: For how long can I use unsupported NVIDIA drivers?
that depends on your nvidia hardware, and how new or old it is. post output of inxi -Fxxxrzc0 or comparable, to start with. My 1650 works fine with recommended 535 drivers. But then again, my old GTX-650 also works fine with the recommended 470 drivers, (since no use to go higher), and I've kept tho...

Re: FFmpeg 6.x compilation
The ffmpeg-snapshot's obviously seem to be their newest releases, but, is there a reason why the ffmpeg devs would name their latest snapshot with an old "RELEASE" name of "5.1.git" instead of "6.1.*.git". Obviously they just forgot to change the version number. We sho...

Re: Laptop randomly shutting down
check your "Power Management Preferences", how's your battery? charging ok?.
...make sure you disable any system sleep/suspend/hibernation preogatives, just to be on the safe side, however, the display shutting down should be ok.

Re: [SOLVED] Black screen when trying to boot to Mint
What worked for me was installing Linux Mint 21.3 Cinnamon Edge. Maybe someone else could use this info. On a minor note: In my case, (on my Lenovo Legion 5 17ACH6, with latest uefi/bios), I'm booting using Linux Mint 21.3 MATE, -which has no "Edge" release. So a quick fix for MATE user's...

Re: Why does Mint Mate start up soooooooo slow
On average, Mint MATE is no slower than any other fully loaded Linux/GNU-based DE, unless of course that particular DE is completely stripped. The only thing faster is a (terminal-based server) Console, or a WM like Openbox, or a tiling i3, ..., and even then.? Unix rules still apply, you can have c...

Re: Is there a way to change the desktop manager to something other than caja?
Caja (file manager) is heavily integrated into the default (Mint) MATE DE. I've had some issues with Caja years ago, (copying/moving many extremely large files...), cacheing issues.?, but it's been working great recently on Mint MATE. You can make Caja more responsive, (within Preferences), by limit...
