Re: Installing Gnome Power Statistics in Linux Mint Xfce

I think part of the problem is where it runs from via a flatpak

/usr/bin/flatpak run --branch=stable --arch=x86_64 --command=connectagram org.gottcode.Connectagram

for my game of connectagram.
I read in one instance at least the I had to log off/log on in order to see that in the Games category.

Re: linux mint desk top screen has lost upper and lower ribbons.

Re: linux mint desk top screen has lost upper and lower ribbons.

I had something similar happen but mine was I had no background picture and could not right-click to change desktop in addition to no panel.
I added
xfdesktop
to my startup applications

Might be your problem too?

Re: Why is Firefox update always so slow?

I open up synaptic and then in the repositories click on the main one and when it's done choose the fastest. Worked for me.
In fact do it to all in the repository list.

LMDE unable to see network

It appears that my pc, VivoBook X1803 with Alderlake is too new. Cannot install as my pc has no Rj45 adapter either. MX-Linux has a newer kernel AHS that works but MX later on loses the network anyway. Seems only Linux Mint XFCE works with my pc, so, does anyone have any ideas? System: Kernel: 6.1.0...

Re: Colors rendered wrong in gtk

Take for instance Mint-X theme. It's a light gray color BUT it renders as a really lite tan color and II do mean lite. Thunderbird, when it comes up the bottom section is a deep brown although I am embarrassed to say "I cannot reproduce that". I am truly at a loss and I really appreciate a...

Re: Colors rendered wrong in gtk

BTW, I had installed Windows 11 the other day via Asus' Cloud Recovery tool and updated everything for the laptop. I upgraded the bios a few days ago.
Now, as I posted earlier, I did a re-install of 21.1 with Xfce 4.16.
