Use SMXI? http://smxi.org/smxi.zip

I'm using the Mint-X theme Cinnamon and I don't think it has changed.

Maybe the OP need to look at SolydK?

re: tap to click Thank you! I tried XFCE version on my eee-900a and promptly replaced/re-installed with CrunchBang Statler because of this very issue. I like the idea of a Debian base, but not at the expense of my work flow. If CrunchBang can fully enable my trackpad, why can't the LMDE releases? Is...

For LMDE and proprietary video drivers I would recommend using either smxi or sgfxi script from smxi.org wget smxi.org/smxi.zip will get them for you. Unzip to /usr/local/bin and run smxi for the full experience or sgfxi for video drivers only. Follow the on screen instructions carefully when replac...

Thanks. Let's just say I have a mental block about Debian repo progression

Brightness and volume Fn keys work on my 900a. Haven't played with suspend since I don't run a swap on my SSD. Boots up quick enough for me not to bother and no issues worrying about wireless up/down with return from suspend

Alternative is to install chromium-browser. Just edit /etc/apt/sources.list and change main repo from testing to sid, apt-get update and apt-get install chromium-browser. After install edit sources.list back to testing and update again. When sid becomes testing (soon) you will get upgrades to chromi...

I installed 7.0.517.0 dev from the google chrome website. I downloaded the 32 bit deb and installed w/ gdebi. Seems to be working well, posting from it now

unetbootin install from USB left fstab showing the USB drive as root w/ UUID. The real root, home were listed as sdX. System did boot fine without the USB drive installed and I was able to correct with fstab edit.

Wild guess here- did you do an upgrade that requires a reboot? I know something came down the pike that broke my ISO burning, would only work for root, not user. A reboot fixed it up. I don't think I got a notice to reboot after that particular upgrade.

Maybe it needs a KMS kernel for mode setting?

I use k9copy which allows you the choice of what titles from a dvd to rip to an iso9660 image. I then use k3b to burn the image. No problems, just works.

Maybe you need to re-install the ATI driver? Running ENVY as root from a terminal should fix up the XOrg config file as well.

Just close the error window and the Live CD should continue just fine. I got that same error window once on a Ubuntu 6.10 Live CD. I think it's a timing thing with the start up scripts as everything runs fine.

Sounds simple, but on my laptop and an EMachine, I just had to whack a key to wake it up. It put the screen to sleep (power down, time out, blanked) for some reason.

Default is to search home directory only. Perhaps you need to change this under preferences? Hope this helps.

look in /usr/share/linuxmint/releasenotes/ for html file. Bianca is ver 2.2

John, There is a cool utility for downloading and installing ATI and Nvidia drivers included in Mint. It is called Envy. There are a couple of threads about in the forum, but the short version is you run envy from a terminal as root and it will take care of setting up your video for you. I used it o...

Right click on the task bar and add the trash applet?
