Linux Mint Forums

Thanks!

Yes....Would like to learn blender, that's going to take a little time. I did try freecad.. seems ok but not there yet.

Hi, After a few years I am back to linux.(I am not starting a Windows war) Just want to tell my story to why I am slowly coming back to linux. I had purchased a Surface 4, I like the form factor of it and what it could do. I have used Onenote witch is a program with a great idea (an electronic noteb...

Hope to be in the right place.... I would just like to thank Linux Mint for still supporting the 32 Bit architecture. Old computers can still be used and not thrown away because of Windows not being supported on them.

Very good points from people. Around here it's Windows that dominates. I have clients that have changed to tablets but, the majority of my clients prefer a desktop or laptop. I have a few that have welcomed Linux on there machine. Like some said here, be versatile in every device as much as possible...

Hi, I have some old floppy disk 1.44MB. Windows 98 reads them. I inserted them in an A drive on my linuxmint box and I got this message: An error occurred while accessing '0 B Removable Media', the system responded: An unspecified error has occurred: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include:...

Your right Makerbot closed down the hardware.

Thank you for your response. I have some reading to do to clarify things.

So Google hasn't taken GPL opensource code and made it there own. Also, you are saying that you can opensource your code but still be proprietary?
It would mean than another type of license if I am understanding this correctly.

I have been reading about Makerbot going from Opensource to Closed source. It made me think. How can Google be opensource?

Sorry to have taken so long to reply back. Thanks for your help.
Unfortunately going back one version did not fix the problem.
I will have to install windows on another computer to be able to use sketchup.

there it is: System: Host: ???-HP-Pavilion-dv5-Notebook-PC Kernel: 3.13.0-24-generic x86_64 (64 bit, gcc: 4.8.2) Desktop: KDE 4.13.3 (Qt 4.8.6) Distro: Linux Mint 17 Qiana Machine: System: Hewlett-Packard product: HP Pavilion dv5 Notebook PC version: F.0B Mobo: Quanta model: 3603 version: 02.1B Bios...

Yes it is running. I just don't get why in the Nvidia settings is enabled and the system is not detecting the rendering.

Hi, I usually find on the internet or this forum the answers to problems with Linux Mint 17. This time I have to ask help. I have a laptop -HP Pavilion dv5- . I can not get the direct rendering with Nvidia driver version 331.113..............................Os Version Linux 3.13.0.24-generic...........

Thank You!

I guess I wanted to know if I was using it on my system. I have checked by typing: "cat /proc/1/comm"
in terminal. The output I got was init.
I'm still a little confuse as to why that folder exist.

Hi, I am just curious to know what is the folder named systemd that is in linux mint in usr/lib.

Thanks!

Thank You for your post. I have read all of them. I had been using some of the tools under linux. Photoshop is now with a subscripton, I don't do the cloud. I'll try the other tools I haven't heard of before and see where that brings me.

I have searched this topic on the internet and have yet to find a Professional that uses Linux to develop websites. I hope to be in the right thread. Are there any one out there that uses Linux to make websites for clients and what would your workflow of tools look like? I have been using Linux Mint...

I found this and tried it. $ autoreconf -vif $ ./configure --prefix=/usr/lib/erlang/lib $ make $ sudo make install I'm more advance, ./configure did work with this but, still gives me errors when trying make. This is the errors; gcc -g -O2 -o mochad mochad.o decode.o encode.o global.o x10state.o x10...

This is what I get when trying "sudo ./configure" configure: error: cannot find install-sh, install.sh, or shtool in "." "./.." "./../.."
