Linux Mint Forums

There may be other more appropriate forums for this discussion, but since I have used Rhythmbox on Mint for many years, I thought I'd start here. I listen to a lot of opera, where the music is often broken-up into tracks that should nevertheless not have any perceptible sound gap during playback, mu...

The specific error in the logs is Bluetooth: hci0: Reading supported features failed (-16) Basically my machine won't (reliably) wake from suspend, with this error and I need to use a hard shut down. I have found some similar unsolved posts that could relate to this for example https://unix.stackexc...

Others seem to have a similar problem: https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=96297 Seems to be related to the 5.4 kernel, but no issues for me running VB 6.1.18 and with a 5.4.0-72 kernel on LM20.1. Are you using two monitors? I ran sudo /sbin/vboxconfig without errors, but the issu...

What should I expect by doing this?

I have this exact same issue, I did a clean upgrade to LM 20 and I'm using the repo provided by Oracle for VB 6.1. I've never had this issue before, but my second display is new. I can confirm that if I set my primary display back to my laptop and restart VB so that the manager starts on that displa...

Thanks, I've marked the issue as SOLVED. Now I ned to search for solutions to upgrading BIOS, I've started a thread in the Lenovo community forums, but generally I think there may be an issue preventing me from upgrading in legacy mode, rather than UEFI mode.

In stepping through the process using mintupgrade check answering yes to each prompt, eventually the process aborts automatically because of libssl1.1. The following packages will be DOWNGRADED: libssl1.1 2231 upgraded, 370 newly installed, 1 downgraded, 50 to remove and 1 not upgraded. Need to get ...

@smg super helpful, you're right, I need to use a DP cable for 60 Hz, which I've done - Thanks! However, I'm unable to update my BIOS following the installation instructions on Lenovo Support for the current BIOS utility. fwupdmgr install N1EET90W.cab Decompressing… no attached hardware matched ddc0...

I just hooked up a new ThinkVision S28u-10 to my ThinkPad P50 via the supplied HDMI. I changed my graphics driver to NVDIA-384 because there were issues getting the monitor to work at all as an external display. The products specs list the resolution at 3840 x 2160 and refresh rate at 60 Hz, but I'm...

Subsequent installs have shown that only the following is necessary. Using your user name, insert the following: /home/YourUserName/.dropbox-dist/.dropboxd into "Menu > Settings > Session & Startup > Application Autostart" to autostart Dropbox at boot time. You can run the same comman...

I found a solution to the resize arrows on the panel: Add this to your ~/.gtkrc-2.0 file. Create the the file if you don't have one (I didn't have one in my Linux Mint 12 MATE, so I created it). style "default-style" { GtkWindow::resize-grip-height = 0 GtkWindow::resize-grip-width = 0 } c...

I'm trying to understand if this is a hardware or software issue, yesterday I had sound through my laptop (Lenovo Ideapad U260) speakers and today I only have sound through my headphones. I am using Mint 12 with Cinnamon, but the issue persists with other desktops. As far as I know, I haven't made a...

Here's an update for anyone who finds this thread useful. After fully discharging my battery, it now seems that I can charge it to 100%, which will give my particular set-up about 3 hours unplugged. However, if after charging to 100% I go unplugged for only a short while, I cannot charge past the ch...

Yes to all of your "does Mint 12 have this" questions, gcc version 4.6.1. Battery life is another issue, depending on your platform, you may like to look here.

Yes, my issues are really with the 80% charge limit, but general power management advice is also appreciated, thank you. The ThinkWiki site mentions the following about Tp smapi The ThinkPad SL series and IdeaPad series have firmware that is completely different from other ThinkPad models. Neither t...

If the changes you make while booting don't work or even your system crashes, there's nothing to worry since these changes are non-permanent (only editing /etc/default/grub is permanent). Thanks for your advice, ej64. I haven't yet noticed any improvement after making changes to grub - is there som...

If it's a sandy bridge with hd graphics it's dead shure you are affected by the 2 power regressions that were introduced by changing the allowed CPU/GPU/chipset power states due to bug reports.
