Re: Pinned to panel VMs
Well, I don't know that it is a bug or a feature that was removed, but I certainly miss it! I will have to figure out how to script a workaround I suppose. I will try other window list applets as well. I remember using switching between Cobi window list and the current grouped window list for a whil...

Pinned to panel VMs
Hi there. Disclaimer: I am running Cinnamon 5.6.8 on vanilla Debian. I recently upgraded to Debian 12 (Bookworm, latest stable) and am experiencing what I believe to be a regression related to VirtualBox and the Grouped window list in the panel ... Before the upgrade I was running Debian 11 (Bullsey...

Re: nvidia settings permanence
Heh ... the nvidia driver is different. What I am speaking of is not a power management issue. The driver defaults to a very low gamma/contrast/brightness level in every instance I have dealt with it. Really weird choices by them I guess. It comes with the "nvidia-settings" utility, which ...

Re: nvidia settings permanence
I looked at that page. I am not sure how relevant it is though ... When I entered your command, "nvidia-smi -pm 1" it stated that persistence mode was already enabled. I have read that the behavior of not retaining settings across sessions is by design. I have no problem adding 'nvidia-set...

nvidia settings permanence
I apologize if this has been answered before. I have seen this all over the internet. Changes made to the nvidia-settings app do not persist across reboots. They can be made "permanent" by loading the config file (nvidia-settings -l) at startup. This is all well and good so far. My compute...

I guess "Debian" is a bad word here ...
Anyway, nevermind I guess ... Seems to have fixed itself. As my 5 year old says, DID YOU RESTART YOUR COMPUTER?

Cinnamon "+ Add to panel"
Hello, I am running Debian, but I figured this would be a good place to ask as well ... I have several systems I manage that are all doing the same thing. They have all been upgraded to Debian 11 (Bullseye). When they were running Debian 10 (Buster), I had "CobiWindowList" on the panel, wh...

Mint packages on Debian
Hi there, I am thinking on porting(?) some of the Mint packages (pix, xed, mint-themes, hypnotix, etc) over to Debian. Several years back I created a personal repository that worked with Debian, but I am a bit rusty on the procedure. What I am hoping to do is make them available to all Debian users ...

Re: Backported Kernel
The easy way out would be, to simply install the Edge iso of the main Linux Mint 20.2. Because that particular iso contains the 5.11.x kernel by default. You can get it here: http://mirror.cs.jmu.edu/pub/linuxmint/images/stable/20.2/linuxmint-20.2-cinnamon-64bit-edge.iso The only drawback for you, ...

Maybe both of you ( appye and jwiz ) should follow this thread https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=353233 and see if the app they're speaking of (Foxclone) can help you by installing LMDE4 on a hardware which supports it, then upgrade to a 5.10 or 5.11 kernel (5.12 and over not po...

Re: Backported Kernel
If you have the linux-image-amd64 meta package installed, then an apt full-upgrade will pull the latest kernel from the backports repo too. P.S.: besides using the kernel image from the backport repo you should also upgrade to the latest firmware-linux and firmware-linux-nonfree packages there. Kin...
