Hi! I installed mint 13 XFCE on my older laptop for the kids, a Compaq R4000 that is still going strong. Before, under additional drivers I could select the ATI video driver, and it would install and life is good. Under Mint 13, there is no ATI driver listed there, and it is heating up a lot, like i...

did you install it in safe mode? I did and had the same error. I then gave up and went back to the last LTS. I may give it another try when xfce version is released, however i had same issues with xubuntu 12.4.

Thanks Gutknecht, that got my WIFI up and running.

However it still crashes on the install after it tells me im ok for space, internet connection, and plugged in.

I installed in safe mode, but when i boot it after installing, it says x is not configured.

Arghhh any ideas?

Thanks, I have been having same issues. This works great, i now can boot and have wifi on the live cd. However im still having it crash after the screen insuring i have enough disk space, and internet connection.

Still same issue with release. Anyone got a broadcom wifi to work? I have found a couple ubuntu 12.04 posts on it, but they have not helped.

Im having troubles installing Mint 13 Mate 64. First it was my broadcom stopping the boot, so i added b43.Disable=1 to the grub boot line, and now i can boot into Maya (im using live cd 64 bit version now). Bu when i go to insall it, it asks for language, i select english, then it tells me im ok for...

This is an older post, but ill post what I had to do do get entangle installed and working on Mint 12. I had some help from the developer, Daniel Berrange who was quick to get back to me and helpful. Webpage with source and info: http://entangle-photo.org/ These are the packages needed: libgtk-3-dev...

Thanks for the info. The new gnome desktop still seems beta ish with so many loose ends. I LOVE MY ANDROID DESKTOP! Making this for linux is an amazing idea. Anyone know a good desklet for Google calendar? I LOVE jorte for android, its a very sweet desktop widget that looks just like Google calendar...

New install of Mint 12, all hardware working. Has the mouse over to preview music files (mp3 etc) been removed with the new version of Gnome? I really loved this, can i get it back or something, it is not working for me.

I think Mint 12 should of spent more time in RC for testing. IMHO this is a big step back from the high quality releases that Mint has had in the past. I have been an avid Mint user for years, allowing me to remove all MS os/apps of my home pc's, so im no light user. However Mint 12 has put me back ...

I got myself a hot off the presses Mint 12 64 bit iso, and installed. I have spent considerable time wrapping my head around the new Gnome3 layout, and how the settings are in different area, even turned of the bottom panel to be more "Gnome3" ish. I have read a lot of Gnome 3 haters and l...

bump.

Anyone? This is really frustrating!

Not sure if this is normal or now, in the system profiler it lists it as:

Sorry for the delay. It will not burn dvd's or cd's. If I boot mint 10 64 bit (another partition) i have no issues. Here is my log(few lines cut, to long of a post), thanks: Checking session consistency (brasero_burn_check_session_consistency brasero-burn.c:1744) ... BraseroChecksumFiles called bras...

Im trying to burn data DVD's on my fresh install of mint 11 64 bit. Brasero, K3B and gnomebaker all wont burn, and in the process eat cd's. I booted back up mint 10 64, and i can burn without any issues.

I seen a couple errors on permissions on k3b. Anyone else have any issues?

Thanks

I have an older laptop with an ATI Radeon 200m video card. There is a few Linux based games i have always loved to play on this laptop, and have done so in mint 8 and earlier. The video drivers for mint 8 and below were simple, after install the "Hardware Drivers" would pop up and say ther...

I know for some this is a hot topic, so I will try to be nice. Does Mint/*buntu support Blu-Ray? I heard rumors about MPlayer playing BR without any hacks/add ons, is this true, or another easy out of the box solution? I would like to get a BR player for my Mint mediapc and start enjoying BR movies ...

net usershare info

Thanks that is exactly what i was looking for to list the shares.

It would be nice for nautilus to have a center point to manage all the shares setup by nautilus right clicking.

Sorry, thought I mentioned I used the right click nautilus way to share. Is there a gui to manage /var/lib/samba/usershares?

Im getting stuck on the nice gui way vs the old school way, Mint is spoiling me. Must be my old age.

Is there some central point to manage nautilus samba shares?

I want to remove a shared folder and its not apparent where it is. I have installed system-config-samba but i guess this is for samba shares only, and the nautilus right click way of sharing does not show on this.

Thanks
