Re: keyboard back light help

I just upgraded with a fresh install of Tara Cinnamon hoping that would help. But no luck. Can someone tell me how to check the keyboard backlight settings or something, please?

Re: tech question for the brilliant people on here :-)

Which version of Mint are you using Angelbeast? If it is Mint 7....and I suppose your laptop is already older...the new x-server can make some trouble. What if you use the LiveCD? During LiveCD-mode the Vesa-driver will be used and does that give problems too? Are you using desktop-effects? Try to ...

Re: I need some help with graphics driver

I use the opensource driver in Gloria and so far no probs, though I haven't actually tried any of my games. Any...

Re: Pidgin problem possibly after update

Should be sudo apt-get remove --purge pidgin* wherein the * is a wildcard for any pidgin package like pidgin-dev or pidgin-libnotify if you have that installed (you can check for that in Synaptic) Im not sure if you have to remove the User Settings as well but youll find them in /home/yourname/.pur...

Re: Pidgin problem possibly after update

You can try installing Pidgin from the developers branch. It's the version I use, and I haven't had any problems with it. After completely purging your current install of Pidgin, add these lines to your sources.list file ## Pidgin developers # deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/pidgin-developers/ubuntu j...
