Hi, Problem is if any of you genius's would of looked up the indicator-cpufreq app I posted about you would of known what I was referring too. Performance power plan I'm on manual voltage with all power saving nonsense off in bios All core 5.0 and without the indicator-cpufreq app my system is slugg...

@Thrashzone2 - You can very much use an MBR layout drive with timeshift just as much as GPT. The crux of the matter is actually you just need a partition formatted to btrfs, ext4 or xfs and not NTFS or FAT32 for it to store snapshots on. Hi, You prove my point additional formatting needed for some ...

Hi,
lol last four responses tell the story why people give up on linux to as well piss poor reading comprehension and no support.

There is no gift horse lol

Hi, Just high performance wise isn't all that easy to get going since linux totally ignores user bios settings so yeah please stop that nonsense I had to dump solus because there was no easy way to get any performance out of it Had to install indicator-cpufreq app otherwise any linux mint would of b...

Hi,
Yeah you can run cmd and powercfg -h off and never have to look at power options to turn off hibernation.

Hi,
Only issue I found was you need to format the hdd/.. in linux before you can actually use timeshift.
Can't just use a mbr disk like windows not sure you can just use a gpt disk either so no timeshift doesn't just work

Hi, Sorry but harmony with win-10 and linux is not possible lol Beside think you'd need to disable fast start features in win-10 Only way it's remotely possible to have any sort of harmony is if you use a device like this to keep them far apart by removing one and inserting the other you want to use...

Hi,
Yet if you check for updates in windows 10 it will not find the update
Kind of funny

Hi, Another really bad thing on cinn 20 Recycle bin in linux changes names and can not open or see what is in it I wanted to restore a file but A) file was not there by the name it had B) names that were there I couldn't even view to see what they were just kind of flashed and didn't open lol Sort o...

Hi,
You select default os in win-10 ?

Only thing I worry about is the grub sludge linux insists on adding and getting rid of that unnecessary crap off ssd/ hdd's. Every Linux distro I've loaded on my machines uses grub. What do you consider "grub sludge"? Hi, Grub on a non linux installed ssd = a data ssd that was not connect...

Hi,
About the only good thing so far is I guess an update fixed the no wired internet connection issue I was having on startup
Guessing someone finally added the newest z490 intel ethernet drivers.

Hi,
I don't use linux on banking sites to know if it has issues or not
Firefox in general on windows doesn't on chase/...

Hi,
Thankfully I never worry too much about if I loose anything on linux because most is backed up anyway
Only thing I worry about is the grub sludge linux insists on adding and getting rid of that unnecessary crap off ssd/ hdd's.

Hi,
Chase bank website is a bloated sad joke.

This is a quote from another forum i visit, where they were discussing Linux and how secure it was. Just wondering... "The kernel was not build with security in mind. It doesn't distrust other parts in the system. The user space has no isolation. I can't see why people consider it "more s...

Linux Mint is incredibly slow when it comes to any sort of browser game. I'm trying to launch a browser game for a project I'm working on, but it's so pathetically slow that I just can't do anything (.io games, etc.). I've heard that Windows has a "High Performance" settings to speed up t...

Too much password needed for basic stuff like updating Thanks for your feedback. Like a lot of things posted in this thread, however, this isn't inherently a Linux Mint thing, but a Linux thing , or a thing of traditional distributions , more specifically. I think it would be very bad for Linux Min...

Hi, To complicated for should be easy stuff in windows that is mainly why people loose interest in any linux spawn. Then they laugh when people say linux is so safe lol well you can use a standard windows user account and enter your password for everything and still get more done than on linux this ...

Hi, Version 20 but not exclusive things haven't changed much in 4-5 years sadly mate or cinnamon Too much password needed for basic stuff like updating Software manager still can't install wine properly or really at all launch never worked. Hardware manager only comes up with gpu drivers lol I know ...
