Thanks for the kind words! It's nice to hear that everything worked out perfectly.

In case someone else runs into the same problem, please edit your first post's title to add the word [SOLVED]. This will help others to know to read your post for the solution.

Thanks again!

Makes sense, but I've never tried this in your specific set up, so it'll be a little experiment. Backup is always recommend before trying something new, and please be careful when performing the steps below. In Linux Mint, I assume you're running OpenSSH. You'll want to just do a few simple steps to...

In Startup Applications, at the bottom middle, there's a + (plus) to add a new entry. In your case, you should be able to use the "Choose application" option. But, if it's not there, you might be able to use the "Custom command" option. If you use the "Custom command" option, you'll need to use a co...

Is there a way to turn WiFi on and off on the laptop? I've had laptops that have a small switch on the side. Check that. Does your laptop have a function key to turn on and off WiFi? My laptop uses the F2 key, but yours might be different. Check that. Might check BIOS to see if somehow it got disabl...

I found a post from earlier this year that is about the middle click in the upper right corner. In this case, andrew0530 wanted to turn it off. Hello. After updating to Tricia 19.3 whenever I tap my touchpad in the top right corner, it does a middle click. This results in tabs closing, words pasting...

I'm running a VM linux-mint with virtualbox and also use winscp. I've set up a firewall rule named SSH that has 22/tcp allow in anywhere and 22/tcp(v6) in anywhere. This works but I'm a little confused. Is there a way to restrict access so only winscp has access? No, not that I know of. But, you ca...

It's right there on the Board Index page.

I thought you posted https://community.linuxmint.com/idea/welcome at first, but this link is a better answer!

Well, I guess it's a belated Welcome to the forum!

I'm just a newbie here, but I think the forum is here to try to help people.

Edit: Removed GitHub links.

If you have a 10.xxx.xxx.xxx LAN, this link has the tcpdump version you could use: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?p=1901420#p1901420 sudo tcpdump -v 'ip and not broadcast and not multicast and not net 224.0.0.0 mask 255.255.255.0 and not net 239.255.255.0 mask 255.255.255.0 and ((src net...

Once upon a time, I used my firewall to deny all incoming and outgoing traffic, except for specific system and applications requirements. It's difficult to use because it usually breaks a lot of stuff. It took a lot of work to set up and maintain. I gave up on blocking the outgoing traffic. Instead,...

If you're a complete newbie, why do you want to use cs50? Seriously, I'm really interested. What does cs50 give you that you can't do with the standard libs? Unless you know what you're doing, you probably shouldn't be doing this. From the GitHub release page, click on Source code (tar.gz) for the l...

Is this for c or for python? I see instructions here for c: https://cs50.readthedocs.io/libraries/cs50/c/ And python: https://cs50.readthedocs.io/libraries/cs50/python/ I see this is what you're trying. I checked the c version, and get similar problems. Maybe better to download directly from GitHub....

Welcome! Reading the posts is a great way to learn! Just be careful if you try some of the commands mentioned in the posts. Before trying out a new command, I'd recommend learning about the command first. You can either search online for info about the command, or you can use "man command " in a ter...

Autostart Applications might be able to do this. I can't help with the WiFi setting, but the audio will probably work with this command: bash -c "pacmd set-sink-mute 0 1" We might need to tinker with that, or we could add a similar line to /etc/pulse/default.pa to do the same thing. For the WiFi se...

Buon giorno Francesco! Benvenuto nel forum!

Thank you for posting the answer to your original question! By the way, I looked at both the older and newer version of the script. Both use xdotool to minimize window(s). The first version uses the class name that you enter (e.g. Steam). The reason you have to run this script after Steam starts is ...
