Re: Mate, not my mate

My problem is that I'm stuck on a vintage look. The window decoration I'd like to set, seems only surviving in XWFM4-format, which isn't very widespread anymore There might be some near-equivalent to whatever window theme you were using before. For alternative window themes go to https://www.mate-l...

Re: Mate, not my mate

I thought Mint 22 comes with kernel 6.8. How did you get kernel 6.10? This one, it's from XanMod.org, He runs all the latest kernels from Linux Kernel Archives, with some tweaks. You'll be surprised by the speed :) And combined with some other PPA's, you almost create a rolling release. Caja seems ...

Re: Mate, not my mate

Thank you for your input.. HPLiP didn't find my printer. HPLiP / hardware should work independently of the desktop environment. Printer works now. It took the removal of "ippusb" to get it connected. With card reader I can not help. You can try wiki for example: - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/...

Mate, not my mate

The new LM22 is here :) Due to some problems with cardreaders, I switched from XFCE to Mate. First impression : looks good, most hardware is working. HPLiP didn't find my printer. Why is nobody removing ippusb straight OOB ? BeID refused blatantly to accept the card reader. After rebooting several t...

Re: I can not delete the history URL addresses of Firefox in BleachBit

Fact is that for the second time I feel forced to walk away. Arogancy and 'shut-up-I-know-better' mentality make me nervous. As I said in the Dutch forum after clashing with the man with the stone face, I'm going back to SolidXK. This time I won't be luring in time and again. And I won't advice Mint...

And as usual, no decent standing example of the 'killing' done by that mean bad piece of software. There was given examples in a thread, where you participated. So fact is, you know, that you are wrong. Doing as if this had never happened appears to be "as usual" in this case and lets thi...

Re: new 49inch 4k monitor only being sent 1920x1080?

What connection you're using ? Older cards tend to have older connectors, so e.g. HDMI only suppprts 4k since latest standard. Same goes for DP etc....

Re: Systemd Manager - GUI for systemd/systemctl

I know real men only use the command line ;) but for the rest of us, a GUI is preferable. Before I continue; messing with systemd means messing with your system, so don't use this program unless you know what you're doing. Disabling/enabling services could mean you can't boot to the desktop, or giv...

Re: Slightly messed Munt 18 installation

I installed Mint 18 over a Mageia 5 based system. I wanted to retain the original /home partition, reformatting the remaining root and swap. That went well except that there a new empty /home and the original is shown as a separate device. I would like to delete the new home and reinstate the old. ...
