Hi

you should change your local domain to different one - like domain.mylocal instead of .local
better solution would be to take a subdomain of an official domain you own e.g. internal.officialdomain

see

you'll do that through nemo like:

smb://192.168.1.1/

for example

it's wine family software?
I want to see seamless "royal ts" at the end..

its based on wine but seamless - you do not have to start wine or any starter - you just start each app (word, excel etc) from your mint startmenue see screenshot:

You may try crossover linux

this works for me on Linux Mint 19.1 (Office2016 - Word Excel Powerpoint - not using Outlook)

To install only some fonts like Arial or Times New Roman, I found a simpler solution: Call up an old document with this font, delete the text to a "new line" and then save it as a template with the correct name - e.g. "Arial" under Libre Writer. But I'm still interested in how to transfer complete ...

Hi, your way is the right one. to save your active home folder: boot with mint image (CD or Stick) then: 1. rename /home to /home-old 2. edit /etc/fstab and add the command to mount sda1 as /home add this line to fstab for example: /dev/sda1 /home ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1 better way would be to mo...

Hi,

I had the same problem on all LM19 installs - my workaround was to give the root user a password (same as mine) by:

sudo passwd root

then the hplip install works

I have converted from Windows 10 and have this WiFi adapter that worked fine in Windows 10 but I cannot seem to get it to work in Mint. I am wired for the time being but need the wireless. I've read through a lot of the posts but none seemed to fix this issue. Any ideas would be appreciated. daniel...

Hi,

first i would try to use the rtl8812au-dkms driver in the repos (you'll need to attach to the internet mybe by LAN cable)
just install by opening an cli and type:

sudo apt-get install rtl8812au-dkms

hope this works for you too

Hi,
Brasero and K3B work for me also on audio cd but had to start them from shell by sudo brasero and sudo k3b

Hi,

You can do that with clonezilla (boot stick) https://clonezilla.org/

Or with timeshift - but there you'll have to setup lm bevor restoring on the new machine

Did you delete the .steam folder in your home dir (its hidden - so check the show hidden button in nemo) ?
If not I'll do that and then try reinstall

hi

I had problem with my ac adapter too - then installed rtl8812au-dkms and it worked
sudo apt-get install rtl8812au-dkms

maybe this helps you too

Hi, Seems getting used to Mint is going to take me a while... my mint workstation gets DHCP address from my windows domain controller. It obviously gets the scope option DNS servers, as I can ping addresses on my local network... but not by FQDN. Only host name. My resolv.conf has my domain as a se...

Hallo Leute, hat es schon jemand geschafft/probiert unter Linux Mint 19 eine Audio CD zu brennen? Ich hab es mit Brasero und K3B versucht und bin jedes Mal kläglich gescheitert. Unter Brasero wird die CD ausgeworfen in dem Moment in dem ich den Brennen-Button klicke. Unter K3B meckert er fehlende D...

what is the problem with that ?

as i remember some USB 3G modems have an storage space where some vendor software is stored for install (had one one of them some years ago)

but i think that should not affect the functionality

Hi, I think without support from the Admin of the Mail Server you won't be able to solve this. Maybe you're only allowed to use the Webmail Client. If the server also has IMAP open you may be able to receive incoming mails but for sending you'll need the server configured to allow your ip to connect...
