Stick to the one in the Ubuntu repos. It's current enough.
It's backup software not graphics drivers. Don't need bleeding edge.

Re: fwupd fails every day
fwupd is useless for most hardware because the manufacturer's don't make their updates compatible with it.
Unless you have a system76 laptop or something don't waste your time with it.

It's all file operations done through the GUI. If you copied or moved a file, its there.

I have an HP Probook with same wifi chipset (8852be). Has there been any progress with this in newer kernels like 5.18?

Re: How is Linux Mint (and other Linux distros) protected from foreign influence & possible takeover ?
As far as international espionnage goes, Linux Mint isnt on anyone's radar.
There are benefits to using an OS that has less 3% market share. very small target on your back.

Cinnamon is the Mint flagship DE. Mint is derived from Ubuntu. No I am not talking about LMDE. We have to see what would be the effect on Cinnamon Mint.

The fix is in the alsa-ucm package.

Re: No sound and dummy output device after reboot on Mint 20 64 bit [SOLVED]
Yeah if you have a renoir APU those three updates are toxic. I've run it on systems with Intel sound and realtek audio with no issues. Anyway as I said the fix is out there. A manjaro live usb does not have this issue. Right now I just uncheck those three updates any time I run the updater on my 470...

Re: HP ProBook x360 435 G7
Can't speak for the touchscreen or pen, but a lot of us have ryzen 4000 series laptops and we made it work. You may not be able to boot the installer right away without a nomodeset option. You may need to manually upgrade to the 5.8 series kernel after that. Plus a recent alsa update yesterday screw...

Re: No sound and dummy output device after reboot on Mint 20 64 bit
What happened? Welcome to ubuntu/Linux! A recent upgrade to alsa broke your hardware support. We both have AMD renoir laptops so we noticed it right away.

Re: No sound and dummy output device after reboot on Mint 20 64 bit
It's not the alsa-utils package.
It's these three
Try reverting the topology package first.

Re: No sound and dummy output device after reboot on Mint 20 64 bit
Yes. I had the same issue on my Acer Swift 3 using a 4700u CPU. It happened this morning and I suspect it is a recent update. My machine is NOT running Mint, but rather KDE NEon 20.04. Nevertheless it is clearly an upstream problem in Ubuntu. I managed to use timeshift to restore to a late October c...
