Linux Mint Forums

Formatting is not a matter of descriptions and introductions. It is a matter of this sort of thing and

• this sort of thing

and this, and (though admittedly I cannot find a way to do that on this forum) of the indentation of the first line of paragraphs.

Well, I am not having the problem now (after rebooting a few and times and after employing the module hack I mentioned). Also, both machines seemed fine on 5.10 kernels.

That is useful but it would be more useful were it nicely formatted and, hence, more accessible to the reader.

ThinkPad models: X230; X1 Carbon Sixth Generation.

As of today, my two Mint ThinkPads both exhibited strange screen corruption. On one, a terminal window started flickering. On the other laptop, Firefox started having strange visual glitches. In an attempt to fix that second PC, I added CLUTTER_PAINT=disable-clipped-redraws:disable-culling to /etc/e...

I looked at the changelog for automatically installed updates for the following components: netplan; systemd. I saw that changelog via a facility provided by the program called (if I get the hyphenation right) apt-listchanges; but one can see it, without installing apt-listchanges, via Mint's Update...

I too have the problem only intermittently, I find. 'I suppose this can be close down, but not sure how that is done.' You mean you suppose the threat should be marked as solved? I find this in the board instructions: 'When an issue has been resolved for you, please edit the original post to include...

@freshminted: well, in a way, you do not have the problem. For my problem started on 20.1.

@DarkMatter: it is 'per se' and no, that is too drastic.

You have not been given advice yet. Not really. As the poster said, the commended commands just give information about your system - which is something people can work with to determine what is wrong.

Hey all Has anyone found that after upgrading to 20.1 (I am on Cinnamon) the wifi does not reconnect upon wake? I have quite a few networking hacks on my systems (and a 5.8 kernel, and third-party FLOSS router firmware) but everything seemed to work until the 20.1 upgrade. So I am wondering whether ...

Lucas: good find. So we have to wait for the next release of Mint - but it might be an idea to ensure there's a note on the Mint bugtracker about this somewhere. The Gnome bug report says that the issue is fixed in '3.36.1 and in 3.38.0'. Mint has 3.36.0. Note also that the Gnome bug report says: 'W...

KSysGuard has a GUI option to use the unit you want.

Version numbers: possibly you have something installed from a PPA. That could be the cause of the problems. Use the tools in Mint's Software Sources to try to get the right version of Gnome System Monitor.

I have not heard of this and I do not see it on my Mint-20-from-19 computers. Rather I see the correct units and the numbers look at least vaguely accurate. Have you tried reinstalling the Monitor? And what version of it do you have? I have 3.36.0-1. An alternative is to use KsysGuard, which I think...

@Dark Owl

Yes.

nelson777:

That is a useful table!

I seem to have solved the problem by reinstalling a few 'xapps' packages.

Suddenly - perhaps after adding a repository that Mint does not like, or that is a duplicate - I see this: $ sudo killall mintsources $ mintsources Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/linuxmint/mintSources/mintSources.py", line 1919, in <module> Application().run() File "...

If you are not monitoring logs then probably you will not notice this problem; I have yet to see an actual bad effect as against the error messages. Here are those messages. $systemctl --user --failed UNIT LOAD ACTIVE SUB DESCRIPTION ● dunst.service loaded failed failed Dunst notification daemon LOA...

@rogerguate:

That stuck-closing problem seems not to have been reported. So, please report it - here. Say that you are using the Cinnamon flavour.

Perhaps it is best to wait for Mint 20. However, here's a thing: I think it might be a D-BUS problem. For, on the one hand, I notice that I have a file `/etc/profile.d/flatpak.sh` that consists of the following. # /etc/profile.d/flatpak.sh - set XDG_DATA_DIRS if [ "${XDG_DATA_DIRS#*flatpak}&quo...
