Thank you for replying however my reason for posting was not to find a better PDF reader. I have been using Foxit as my default PDF reader for several years. However Foxit does not have an option to print booklets. Say I have PDF with several pages. In the past Adobe reader could easily arrange to p...

Still trying to install an older version of Adobe Reader so I can print booklets. I've started using PlayOnLinux since LM20 arrived. Attempting to install Adobe Reader 9.1 seems to work until "Setup was interrupted before Adobe Reader 9.1 could be completely installed. Your system has not been ...

I am using LM20 w/Cinnamon Yesterday I looked into CONKY and HToP in Software Manager. I could swear I clicked to install Conky but HTop appeared in my Menu. Doesn't seem to be any more informative than System Monitor which came with the distro.

My system: Thinkpad T520 core i5 2nd gen; 8 GB RAM; 128 GB Samsung SSD boot drive; 1TB WD Black as /home mounted in multibay drive adapter. While in a ZOOM meeting I was also running MS Word 2010 through Play On Linux Wine; Google Drive to access a Google doc, and a small file kept open in xed text ...

for FILE in $(dpkg-divert --list | grep nvidia-340 | awk '{print $3}'); do sudo dpkg-divert --remove $FILE; done and apt purge nvidia* I believe this will clear every problem out, you reboot to nouveau. That might be in a good position but actually don't know cause still went digging for system inf...

put up your info. It's utterly impossible to think about a solution given nvidia-390 being the only potentially relative info. check up in the red section at the top. system information is in the OP After running fix broken files result: (Reading database ... 297620 files and directories currently ...

Perhaps my original post on this topic was a case of TMI. The recommendation to install the Nvidia 390 driver came at the end of the re-installation of 19.3 and concluded by announcing that the installation had failed mentioning that there were 3 broken packages but did not identify them. Through pa...

I'm trying to solve a specific problem and you send me the release notes covering the whole ball of wax ???? You are "trying to solve a specific problem" by using your own faulty diagnosis. I'll leave you to it. Good luck sorting it out yourself. Not at all. In the other thread cited in b...

I hope someone out there is familiar enough with this scenario that they can advise me on steps to take. Wannabe surgeons really shouldn't diagnose themselves :) https://www.linuxmint.com/rel_tricia_cinnamon.php See Solving freezes during the boot sequence . I'm trying to solve a specific problem a...

SOLVED UPGRADED TO LM20 My system Lenovo T-520 8GB RAM two disk drives; 128 Samsung SSD boot drive & 1 TB WD Black in multi-bay adapter designated as /home Currently running Linux Mint 19.3 after experimentation with LM20 Cinnamon. Experiment with LM20 had mixed results. Toward the end of the in...

Thanks to arvy, I hope this additional information will produce some results. Okay, krusty. Firstly, I am going to assume that your primary interest is getting things back into working order rather than any long-winded re-hash of what went wrong, etc., etc. Secondly, based both on the fact that you...

discovered that the /home that I setup in gparted had become /dev/sdb1 with a mount point of /media/kenneth/_home/kenneth/*.* Since I'm in the process of reinstalling Wine and some programs the remnants of which can be fount in /.wine I'm hesitant to do much more until I correct the locations of my...

Thanks to arvy, I hope this additional information will produce some results. Also kadaitcha man I may get around to the backup and do a totally fresh install, but the drive I would have to use is awkward. It has been a network connected drive plugged into a usb port on my router, but hasn't been us...

Post by krustybaguette » Sat Jul 04, 2020 3:24 pm My system is Lenovo T-520 with 128GB SSD as boot drive and 1TB /home for pretty much everything else. I was running LM 19.3 until recently but had to have some hardware repaired so when I got home I decided to go ahead and install LM20 onto the 128GB...

Running Mint 19.3 with MATE. I lost my keyboard toggle and can't find out how to get it back on the panel. A while back I used "reset panel" and the only items left behind are Bluetooth, System Update, and Network (WIFI unless I plug in an ethernet cable.) I used to have "en" and...

@ Jungle_Boy As of June 2019 Both Foxit (which I've used for years to print booklets, and Adobe Reader) have eliminated booklet printing. No explanation given. I tried installing Adobe Reader 9 & 8 but both put up roadblocks leading to their "new, improved version." I've been using the...

I'm not familiar with the term/acronym URI but the command gave me no results. Since URI is part of the second command I haven't tried that yet.

system details include Netgear router WNDR 3400. Printer is connected via ethernet and worked via my wife's Win10 laptop using wifi and my laptop using an ethernet connection. Now neither works. I've tried all I can to get it to "print test page" with no success. I found thread re: failure...

Cat, thank you so much. That's what I thought would be the answer but I was timid to do it for the reason you stated about possibly blowing the whole thing up.
