xfce4-terminal arrow keys type control codes Mint 20.1
In xfce4-terminal, the cursor arrow keys type control codes such as ^[[A instead of performing the left right up down (previous command, etc.) functions. They work fine in other program such as text editor or libreoffice. How to fix? Also the prompt is just $ instead of the usual. The only thing I d...

Re: How to get faxmodem to work?
Thanks. Tried info/drivers at Linuxant. No easy solution. Might be possible to with a lot of work.Definitely would be a 'learning experience." Probably not with the time. Been so long since I have had to deal with a modem I kind of forgot the hardware modem/winmodem issues. I have some old hard...

Re: GeForce 6150 LE limited resolution with nVidia-304
Even though this is an old thread addressing resolution issues, I am posting an information update for anyone else who might have problems with this graphics adapter.

So today I looked at the output of those two commands and it looked like cron was running and there were no obvi...

This is still a problem in MInt XFCE 18.x and 19.x. I think it is a problem with the NVIDIA C51 [GeForce 6150LE].
