hi TMLAC...i envy you, my fondest wish is to find an old fashioned radio and have looked now with zero success for the last 8 yrs since i retired here to alamogordo nm...i will not buy one of these crappy modern radios i see in the stores since sound quality is lousy, so i do not have a nice radio t...

i cant say i know anything about the sampling rate problem you are having, since i have never encountered that problem myself...someone more knowledgeable of this problem will hopefully come along with an answer for you, but i am happy that you were able to apply my solution of adjusting your umatri...

hi pjotr...isnt it always there as well that update manager asks you during an update proceedure if you wish to modify grub which ive seen from time to time?...i always tell it to just leave it alone since ive already manually made changes to grub thats particular to the computer its installed on an...

hi there Night Wing, im hoping you are taking into account that kernel updates in the same series kernel such as the 4.15.0-xx LTS series, are bug fixes and security updates that SHOULD be updated mostly for security reason...they are not "re-inventing the wheel", they are maintaining the integrity ...

hi bulevardi, as you probably have noticed by now, your LM OS receives updates on sometimes, almost daily basis. THIS is why there are no viruses in the wild that can effect linux operating systems, its because vulnerabilities and security problems are continuously found and patched almost immediate...

no one says to 'store' anything there...the purpose of me telling you this is so you can 'transfer' photos or music or files from one device to the other and then just delete what is in pcloud immediately after you have things transferred...no need to store anything there, just use it to transfer is...

i know that installing "pcloud" to your linux system will allow iphones to transfer pics and music back and forth to your linux mint as i have done this for other folks, i would figure that this should also work for ipod as well if you are able to download pcloud to your ipod using their store to fi...

Why are opensuse linux repositories for 16.04 OS platform on your LM 18.04 "bionic" OS platform? this is what i believe is the crux of your problem here...DAMIEN ps...horst3180 has been inactive for a long time now and therefore is now an unsigned key as your readout confirms. The arc theme is now m...

shouldnt need it on startup either since that can be started on command...DAMIEN
...reboot

if you DO need it, just undo it like this:

unplugging them does not stop the startup entries from initiating...i can at least help you with one of the startups though, copy and paste the code im providing below into your terminal...click enter then enter your password etc when prompted, reboot then recheck that this one is at least gone from...

is there any good reason why vboxdrv.service is present during bootup/startup service?, likewise, i see that NetworkManager-wait-online.service is also seen here during startup...DAMIEN

that breach was caught almost immediately, Linux MInt versions since that date have not been nor ever effected, this is also why, when downloading an ISO, they instruct you to test the "checksum" values to insure that it matches. this was announced on this site immediately after it occurred along wi...

its not quite that simple, just like people, your computer is also a unique "individual". the combination of hardware and software working together just depends, as a for instance, XFCE or MATE on the same computer will usually run faster on your computer than say, CINNAMON, all using the same exact...

Yep...shouldnt be a problem at all since boxes are made for this purpose...if mounting internally, (as i did), i first noticed the small size of the SSD that was given to me brand new by parents of teen im instructing in Linux...i went and purchased a "Corsair" dual SSD drive mounting bracket that e...

i now also have an SSD after holding out for years (it was given to me as a gift)...not only does my system "cold boot" in 3.5 to 5 seconds, but everything else works instantaneously such as launching music and video players, launching browsers etc...no more time lags which were all due to time it t...

First off, the first code you typed in your first OP is incorrect...it should be, sudo apt upgrade NOT upgarde...when mis-spelled it doesnt work...you also appear to have removed some "python" components and that in itself is a big problem since python is a computer coding language that mint is base...

heat?, no problem. just sit a nice old fashioned tin bucket of ice and a desk fan blowing on it aimed at your computer...problem solved...low tech solution to a high tech problem...lol...DAMIEN

I hate to beat a dead horse here, but i think the "troll" went back home under his bridge upon his last posting on Feb.18th...lol...DAMIEN

An easier and better "burner" than brasero is one called "Xfburn"...you can install it through either the Linux Mint software repository or just copy and paste the below provided code into you terminal and download that way...it is easier, and more reliable than brasero...DAMIEN sudo apt install xfb...

Welcome to the forums to you in Royal Tunbridge Wells...a site you CAN trust is the one i will give you a link for...i recommend bookmarking it in your browser for future reference as need be...it is from one of our regular, trusted contributors in the forums by name of "pjotr" and you CAN trust the...
