Linux Mint Forums

I'm using 1.4.0 on Debian, so it's not just a post 1.3.0 issue, minor in the scheme of things but it does mess with the perception of snappiness normally associated with running Xfce.

I normally use Debian Wheezy which instantaneously displays the contents of the whisker menu. Just experimenting with Mint 17 XFCE and I'm finding there's often a wait with a spinning progress indicator where the menu content would be. Any suggestions on what to look for that could be slowing it down?

Hey guys/gals just wanted to share something with you that I found pretty interesting. I installed Linux Mint 12 successfully (it's awesome) and I'm dual booting with Windows 7 as well. I monitor and maintain religiously to keep it running quickly. If my PC runs even a second too slow, say I have a...

The Arch wiki usually has good info, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Backup_Programs - for me backing up /home is generally all I want. I don't mind reinstalling the OS if need be.

I find the differing 'n's in the logo quite distracting. I'd be interested to know if there any posts where the reasoning behind this was discussed?

Just another voice, fresh install of Isadora x86 DVD and the menu has a habit of jamming open. Sometimes can be cleared by clicking on the app that was launched from it in the background but usually have to click the menu button again.

Just installed Mint 9 from the x86 DVD and noticed that I can browse the windows network as far as listing available workgroups in Nautilus but not further (server list unavailable message). There was no problem installing a printer on a Windows share and if I Ctrl+L in Nautilus and wipe out the thi...
