Re: "Flatpak Is Not the Future"

They always buy the cheapest, not wanting to know if it comes of an adult worker of a western country or an 8-year Vietnamese child. The only thing that matters is their own profit. Now that is something to which I am absolutely opposed: arbitrage. I feel there should be a well-crafted law which ha...

Re: Painfully slow and fan noise

I think you might do better with an older kernel (the 4.15 series). So I just tried that, learning how to install an old kernel and boot into it. I've tried with 4.15.18 and the high CPU usage is still there unfortunately. I've installed mbpfan which seems to somewhat mitigate the problem, but not ...

Re: "Flatpak Is Not the Future"

I don't care about this package manager war nonsense. I unlocked snap on Mint and use apt, downloaded .debs, snap and flatpak. I just care about software availability and having more options for getting software easily without compiling voodoo is my #1 priority on Linux. Yeah, other people have the...

Re: Comment installer mes drivers pour printerr Canon TS205

Il faut juste doucle-cliquer sur install.sh puis choisir lancer dans un terminal... Ceci ne marche pas forcément. Certains scripts d'installation vérifient quelle version de l'interpréteur de commandes est installée et ne s'exécutent que si c'est la version de base. LM vient avec la version "a...

Re: Firefox 95.0.1 adds Bing, Ebay, Google, Amazon search engines?

This pref in about:config sets the default search engine :

Code: Select all

browser.urlbar.placeholderName
To take Pierre's example, set it to DuckDuckGo and DDG will become your default search engine (must of course be present).

Re: Comment installer mes drivers pour printerr Canon TS205

Comme vous débutez sous Linux (j'interprète ceci comme voulant dire j'utilisais Windows avant), vous partez sans doute du principe que le dernier pilote, particulièrement s'il provient du site du constructeur est le meilleur. Sous Linux, c'est exactement l'inverse : s'il y a un pilote déjà fourni po...

Did you try to create a new profile out-of-the-box and export your current bookmarks to it ? Maybe it's an add-on or a user_pref you set in about:config that causes the issue.

Hi,
What tool do you use to get these 100% ? Is it the System Monitor and are all 4 cores at 100% ?

Hi, What follows is just about Firefox. The problem with add-ons is how silly we use them. Most should be irrelevant because they wouldn't have any sense with a proper config of Firefox (about:config).
