What a piece of buggy, poorly tested *buntu junk. Horrible change... :x :roll: :evil: For people fighting with this non-working nonsense: - /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf - comment out the "dns=dnsmasq" line (put # before this) - /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/tail - make the file ...

I also reckon that the patch definitely improves, but there's still something slightly wrong even in Mint-X. So grab the master version from github as linked above. Still not the same? Sorry, go complain to Gnome folks upstream. People usually have better things to do than repairing absolutely poin...

Gnome 3.4 goes together with GTK+ 3.4 :) so the update affects even XFCE or LXDE - if you run any GTK+3 apps in it :) Well, tracking Debian unstable, so... :) I can't help but post a quote from this blog post : I’ll apologize in advance for the sarcasm here.. I need to take another cheap shot at th...

Not for me, Xfce here... Anyway, the github master one works just fine as well.

Fixed - the below is a patch for Mint-X and Mint-X-Metal, for others, I guess do the same. --- /usr/share/themes/Mint-X/gtk-3.0/gtk-widgets.css 2012-06-24 12:20:42.606634258 +0200 +++ /usr/share/themes/Mint-X/gtk-3.0/gtk-widgets.css 2012-06-24 12:24:10.087168651 +0200 @@ -66,6 +66,16 @@ -unico-inner...

As for the GPG key, the original instructions are just enough. If this does not work for you for whatever weird reason, use an alternative keyserver as advised at http://www.duinsoft.nl/packages.php

About Ubuntu - no idea, not using and do not ever plan on using.

Well, that is about none that I could find - except for the default fallback junk which looks like... *censored* *censored* *censored* What kind of upstream genius felt the urge to cause this pointless borkage?

This is extremely annoying, see screenshot. What is up with this? (Using Xfce but that does not matter, even LightDM looks like this.)

Edit: fixed, patch in this post.

Bug #532669

/tmp /chromium-nightly/chrome-linux/chrome: write error (disk full?). Continue? (y/n/^C) n There's plenty of room available, so I'm not sure what the problem is... $ sudo df -h tmpfs 101M 36K 101M 1% /tmp Plenty? Really? :P Do not use /tmp on tmpfs if all you have is measly 512MiB of RAM. See /etc/...

In my experience, using a normal (not crossover) cable appears to be a better choice with recent Gbit NICs (and even with some 100Mbit ones). Since usually you will not have much luck with detecting auto MDI/MDI-X capabilities of a NIC via ethtool, you just need to try and see for yourself. (Also, t...

doktornotor - please stop shouting and actually read what is written. The laptop has been closed down . It has been re-started . It did not boot to anything . I cannot get access to Linpus. You have given poor advice. You did not warn that following your advice may lock me out of the netbook withou...

Considering that Pulseaudio is being used, invoking alsamixer does not sound exactly like the way to go here... Try with pavucontrol instead.

I was not talking about your BIOS boot menu - I am talking about your GRUB boot menu. If you get a BIOS boot menu instead when pressing Esc then kindly wait a bit longer before pressing the key!!!

Could someone please now advise me how to get Linpus to boot? ESC only gets me to the boot menu. I need advice on what to do from there. F12 only gives me a selection of IDE0 or network boot. Uhm, how about using the arrow keys to select "Linpus Linux RCD" from the menu and pressing enter...

Probably does not search hidden dirs (like .local) by default, or at all.

P.S. Need to ask GTK devs why this stopped working. Used to work just fine.

Could you tell me what you imagine the hiddenmenu could mean? Sigh.

Seriously. Wipe out the disk and install ONE OS there.

P.S. To show the menu, press ESC on boot.

OK, it boots to Linpus. Change the default to 1 instead of 0. Still boots to Linpus? Sorry, then you are clearly editing wrong file. Oh and rootnoverify (hd0,8) is definitely wrong unless you managed to produce yet another two partitions there, since the partitions are counted from ZERO with the gru...

Well, if it does not do anything even after logging out and back in, then rm -f $HOME/.local/share/recently-used.xbel mkdir $HOME/.local/share/recently-used.xbel otherwise obviously it will keep getting populated once again. (I do not use "Search the files", no idea. locate is preinstalled...

(Dorktornotor, stop being rude. You expect the guy to know everything? He's new to Linux Mint man...) Especially since he is new to Linux (apparently not just Mint) it makes about zero sense to do what he is doing. Right now he has half of the disk wasted by useless crap from failed installs of Min...
