Re: UPS problem: COMMLOST with APC CS650 and gapcmon

Re: Linux Mint 19 wakes up printer on boot

It's Linux Mint 19 Xfce, upgraded from a Beta install following the instructions on the website. Haven't tested a fresh install.

Re: Linux Mint 19 wakes up printer on boot

The printer actually gets woken up as soon as Mint reaches the login screen, before logging in. Oh, well You know, it might be helpf...

Doesn't really do any harm, but there are a few mechanical parts that click and whirr, would like to avoid the wear and tear (it's not even my printer). Would be nice if there was a fix for this.

Although update-manager labelled the update as 'tomcat8', the package that was updated was in fact ' libservlet3.1-java', version 8.0.32-1ubuntu1.5 .

Re: Kernel updates

And one more question: I can see a package in synaptic called linux-libc-dev. Its version is 4.4.0-77.98 and there's a 4.4.0-79.100 update. Shouldn't that be version 4.10.0-22, which is my updated kernel? Isn't that package updated along with the kernel? Is it safe to remove it? (I guess not? :shoc...

Re: Hotsync a Palm E2 to Cinnamon 17.3?

.... So the 'visor' module is NOT NEEDED for your Palm E2 to 'Sync' thus there is no need for you to mess with that in the future. And in the 'usb:' config in 'jpilot' it will not matter which 'Sync', 'jpilot' icon or device, you start first. Either way, the 'Sync' should work. . I had tried 'usb:'...
