Thank you.

Merci. I'll give it a try, but I don't understand much of what you've told me to do. Thanks anyway.

Thanks for the reply. I'm really only trying to share document folders & possibly music/audio books & images if I can manage it.

Hello all. I'm trying to set up a home network between three Linux Mint machines, & possibly a Windows 10 one. I am completely lost (noob). It seems to be very complicated, unless I'm missing something. I have installed Samba on all computers. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you. :)

There are some sounds from time to time. I think that it's a hardware problem. I've taken it to the Doctor! Thanks for the ideas.

Yep, I've tried that. No go.

No way to access BIOS either.

Bonjour, I recently installed XFCE on a Compaq mini. Everything was working fine, but todday all I get when I start-up is a black screen. I can't even access a terminal. I've tried all of the keys...F1, F2, F10, F12 & Ctrl/Alt/Delete to no avail. Likewise I've tried usoing an external monitor bu...

Hello again. I'm still having no luck with FlickrTouchr. It used to work wonderfully. Can anyone recommend a way in which I can back up my Flickr photos? Thanks.

Having problems again. I get the following in the terminal: Traceback (most recent call last): File "flickrtouchr.py", line 288, in <module> pages = int(dom.getElementsByTagName("photo")[0].parentNode.getAttribute("pages")) IndexError: list index out of range Any ideas ...

SOLVED: No idea how though. Now my twinview won't work at startup. Grrr!

Hi. I've just come back to LinuxMint XFCE after a failed attempt at using Ubuntu (lags too much on my old desktop). Everything is running smoothly except that I can't change the themes or icons under Appearance. Nothing happens. Could somebody please point me in the right direction? The icon themes ...

Easily solved. I just added the log out/shutdown button to the taskbar and voila! I no longer need to use a terminal to shutdown. It just seems strange that it would always hang when trying to logout or shutdown from the menu though.

Consider this solved.

Thanks for the replies. I'm currently using sudo shutdown now which is working, despite being a bit of a pain. Hopefully some bug fix or something will help. Cheers.

Sorry, you guys have lost me with EFI and BODHI.

Thanks for the reply. I'm using Mint 14 XFCE and no I can't reboot either. I'll try using the command line.

Hello, Having recently switched from Ubuntu to LinuxMint, I'm a happy customer! I just have one problem are. I can't shut down my computer. I click Log Out, the Shut Down, but nothing happens and I need to manually stop my PC (not good). Has anybody else experienced this problem and is there a solut...

Thanks. I'll check it out.

Hi, I'm trying to back up my photos on Flickr, something that I had no problem with in Ubuntu. Unfortunately I now get the following in a terminal when trying to run the script: $ python flickrtouchr.py FlickrBackupFolder python: can't open file 'flickrtouchr.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory...

Excellent. Thanks a lot.
