...I haven't used Gnome/Cinnamon for awhile but when I did the Volume Control applet was dependent on Pulse. No Pulse = No Volume Control applet. :shock: The volume control applet was never an issue for LMDE. It was an issue for the main edition, and it was resolved! See my other [url=http://forums...

[url=http://www.ubuntugeek.com/cleaning-up-all-unnecessary-junk-files-in-ubuntu.html]Here[/url] is a good tutorial on the issue.

i followed this guide but it broke my cinnamon, now i cant add any applets to my panel nor click on anything in the bar except my menu. There is also no add "Volume Control". Sorry that it broke your system. This guide was written three years ago, at the time of Gnome 2 and before the release of Gn...

Great article, but the psychological impact on the MS victims would be enormous if it included a picture of bikini-wearing students in front of their Linux boxes.

I don't know. Take a look at [url=http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2092934]this[/url] ubuntu thread that discuss the same chipset.
Or go for ndiswrapper with Windows XP drivers.

This is what I did some years ago. Might help, I hope. 1) Add DNS nameservers to /etc/resolv.conf sudo echo "nameserver x.x.x.x" > /etc/resolv.conf sudo echo "nameserver y.y.y.y" >> /etc/resolv.conf 2) Open /etc/network/interfaces and define appropriate stanzas for wireless interface. Run: gksudo ge...

Hi kaspin.
The same considerations don't apply to Linux, so there is no need to get rid of unwanted fonts.

First you need to create a file called resolv.conf in the /etc folder. Run: sudo touch /etc/resolv.conf Then you need to add your dns nameservers to resolv.conf. Run: sudo echo "nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" > /etc/resolv.conf sudo echo "nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" >> /etc/resolv.conf Apparently in mi...

Yes.

Yes.

Hmm, nothing, do I need to contact linksys or my isp since nothing is working? Not sure about that. The default password is usually written on the router itself. Anyway, as a last attempt, you can try this site: Linksys Router Default Passwords - Administrator Login If none of the combinations abov...

Nothing is better than an update indicator lighting up in green with a check on it, lol.
Glad that it worked.

I ran a search with Google using the key words:
debian wheezy cat /etc/issue
debian wheezy cat /etc/issue.net

I am not 100% sure, but the search results indicate that the content of the original files are:

/etc/issue
Debian GNU/Linux wheezy/sid \n \l

/etc/issue.net
Debian GNU/Linux wheezy/sid

I might have found the source for the error.
Check out post #8 by 'chili555' here.

You can only use one package management program at a time. For instance you shouldn't open Synaptic and Software Center at the same time.
Other than that, check out the solutions provided by "feral-deb" (post #6) here and Thomas Zahreddin (post #8) here.

As far as I know, ndiswrapper works only with Windows XP drivers.
You could try to find XP drivers, or install Realtek Linux drivers.
For the latter, check out this page:
