Mint 19.3 Cinnamon

I'm on 19.3 Cinnamon. Right click doesn't work for me either, but if I left click to select then click on Edit in the top menu the make link is there in th dropdown menu.

I get an sms to my 4G router every month to remind me that my bill is ready to view. I just log into the router (in my case 192.168.0.1) and find the sms through the router menu's. Have you tried this? I can't give you any guidance on your router.

Hello Frmb. Are you still running the version of Mint that you installed in 2016?
Posting the results from running inxi -Fxz in the Terminal will help others advise on your best course of action.

Hi Badmedicine. You shouldn't feel alone in experiencing random selections while typing on your laptop, I have the same on my Lenovo G575 but it clearly doesn't bug me as much as it does you. I'm pretty certain that in most cases it's when I've brushed across the touchpad. I notice that in Preferenc...

Drat. Sorry Flemur I didn't see your first reply that arrived while I was composing my second. But you did make me realise that I was searching the wrong question. Should have been how to move /home. (accepting that renaming sda and sdb can't be done) I followed the procedure here https://www.makete...

I've been thinking some more.
Could I use gparted to format the sdd and designate it as /home, and wipe the /home from the M2 drive?

Edit - No. Think some more before posting, Bob

I've put an additional drive into my laptop, and planned to reinstall 19.3 Cinnamon so that the original M2 drive holds / and the SATA SSD holds /home. The M2 drive is being seen as /dev/sdb, the SATA is /dev/sda. For the sake of neatness I'd like it to be the other way round, so /dev/sda is / and /...

You would be best downloading a more up to date version of LM than 17.3. That one is no longer supported and it will give you more grief with being unable to update packages.
18.3 will be supported for a few more years

https://wetransfer.com/ works well for file transfer, check for max file size/

My suspicion is that this is a 19.3 issue, not an xfce issue. Cinammon 19.3 has the same symptoms. I've installed 19.1 Cinnamon and that is suspending correctly on lid close. I'll keep updating until it breaks to see if I can narrow down to the cause. It might take a long time

After upgrading to LM19.3 xfce I am having problems resuming from suspend when suspend is caused by closing the laptop lid. I have an action button for suspend on the panel. I can suspend, close the lid, open the lid, the power button has a solid light, press the power button and be back where I was...

The heading on your kernels page shows you are booted into 5.0.0.37. You haven't managed to boot into 4.15.0.74 None of the 5.3 series are on your machine. Look in the tabs for the other series on your kernels screen and you'll see the differences between loaded and active. try again to get into 4.1...

For the avoidance of confusion, I believe that within the UK it's possible to access bbc.co.uk . From outside the UK you get directed to bbc.com. The content is different. I'm in the UK and can access the embedded videos, they default to HTML5, and don't run successfully on my laptop due to hardware...

Surely there can be no drama on TV that can compare to some of the epic stories that unfold in these forums. New users needing large quantities of explanation, understanding, examples, and patience being supported and encouraged by other posters. Despite false starts and diversions being eventually ...

I've been digging around, and all I've found suggests that it's due to old underpowered hardware. This from an Ubuntu forum in May 2018 Re: Radeon HD 6310 Graphics not to running well It all looks good. Now the question - What type of video are you trying to watch? If it's HEVC/H.265, it's going to ...

On my Lenovo G575 laptop I've been living with being unable to watch embedded videos on the bbc.co.uk website for as long as I can remember. Videos start playing OK, but after about 3 seconds the video stops but the sound carries on playing. The progress bar cursor jiggles about. Occasionally I have...
