If you don't specify a Swap partition, Mint (Ubuntu) will create a *small* Swapfile.

You can find out how to increase the size here:

Then that PPA is out of date so remove it! The Scribus version in the Mint/Ubuntu repo is more up-to-date!

Well, if you want to install Scribus, then:

sudo apt install scribus

Yeah, my main desktop is Neon. I do appreciate it's nothing is installed by default approach (except Firefox and VLC) so I can just install stuff I need and stuff I want to play with. :D I'd really rather be running OS/2 Warp 4 again though... :mrgreen: I booted up the Win 10 partition on my machine...

Also go into Thunderbird Add-Ons and look for the extension called "Provider For Google Calendar" As an aside, I also install gnome-calendar for the boss and it syncs via Mint's Online Accounts setting. sudo apt install gnome-calendar There's a reason Kubuntu ships with Thunderbird and not...

I like both Strawberry and Audacious. There's a PPA available for the latest release.

No, not Kontact! I'm a KDE user and I won't even go there! You'll have more problems with KMail than you have with Thunderbird! Thunderbird 68 and 78 work fine with GMail, just make sure that you have less secure apps turned on. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thunderbird-and-gmail https://supp...

It was actually white marker

I may try again but life is too short and there's beer to drink...

Only one scrollbar takes the Breeze theme. The other two are ugly! 68 has no problems.

Yes, it's NOT the most obvious place to look! It took me ages to find it to turn it off for the boss, who was also complaining about it!

I have used Thunderbird 78 from that repo but on my KDE Neon system it was as ugly as hell, I couldn't get the scrollbars to match the Breeze theme at all! I can wait until it is available in the official Ubuntu repo. I had to go back to TB 68, little things like that really annoy me.

Turn off overlay scrollbars by opening the settings panel, themes and it's on the third tab. You'll have to logout and back in for it to take effect.

Thunderbird 78 officially coming soon perhaps!

https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2021/02/thu ... -20-04-lts

I tried Thunderbird 78 and didn't like it so went back to 68 by following these instructions, but they might not work if you had already started with the newer version.

I'll beieve it when I see it, the amount of bureaucracy here for even simple things is enough to turn you grey! :mrgreen: EU approves first shipment of Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine to Japan https://japantoday.com/category/national/update-1-japan-minister-eu-approved-first-shipment-of-pfizer-covid-19-vacc...

Well, for us it's still unclear when anyone will get the jab! It was supposed to start rolling out to the elderly and those on the front lines late Feb or early March. People 65 and over should be receiving it in April or May, I'm not quite 65 but fall into that category according to my doctor. The ...

I use KDE Neon on my main machine but have Linux Mint on a Mac Mini that I use as a media player. I use my ThinkPad as a testbed for different distros but right now it's also running Mint.

My install was on a mid 2010 Mac Mini: 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor 8Gb 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics processor 320Gb Serial ATA hard disk drive 8x slot-loading SuperDrive (DVD±R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW) I had to delete some apps (LibreOffice for one) as well as spelling dictionaries ...

The upgrade on the boss's machine went without a hitch. I also installed usrmerge as suggested. I think she might enjoy using Hypnotix!
