Thanks to xenopeek on another thread via cli
mintmenu --reset

Thank you, but makes no difference edit i ran this from terminal journalctl -xe the result is in the 2nd set of code at top of page it mentions at the end Subject: Process 2742 (mintmenu) dumped core ░░ Defined-By: systemd ░░ Support: http://www.ubuntu.com/support ░░ Documentation: man:core(5) ░░ ░░...

Thank you
I tried copying the various files across, 1 at a time and logout and in.
This did not make any difference.

T o answer the question mintmenu for a 2nd user works fine.

I'm,on Linux mint 21.2 mate, edit 64 bit System: Kernel: 6.2.0-37-generic x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: N/A Desktop: MATE 1.26.0 wm: marco dm: LightDM Distro: Linux Mint 21.2 Victoria base: Ubuntu 22.04 jammy Machine: Type: Desktop System: Micro-Star product: MS-7C91 v: 1.0 serial: <superuser required> ...

I’m hoping someone can shed some light on my problem. Linux mint mate 21.2 NVIDIA drivers 470 in use vid card is gforce gt710 I have shortcuts set in my panel for: fast reboot, shutdown, restart as well as suspend My problem is the suspend command from the panel. the command in use : systemctl suspe...

I had this issue as well and Rene's solution works, thank you.
In my case the default, mint provided printer, would not scan to file, adding brothers software fixed that but then i was left with 2 x printers.
LM mate 21.1

Thank you. I went and had a look. I renamed the following 2 x files. gsf-office.thumbnailer and xreader.thumbnailer to .bak found here as you said: /usr/share/thumbnailers also as per that post, removed the thumbnails ~/.cache/thumbnails . The result was instant. I rebooted and the settings held. Ne...

Hi, I'm using mint mate 21 Is there anyway (in caja) to stipulate that photos show thumbnails, but all the rest of the files display as "never show thumbnails." The reason I ask this , its easier to find a picture when there is a preview of the pic. Especially in pictures folder. (ie thumb...

Thanks Altair4 I reverted to the way i was doing it originally per 1st post. This at least does not lock me out of the local directories when network unavailable. I still have the issue re 2nd user not getting to correct directory at first try. This was happening with both methods. Hopefully, maybe ...

Ok im, a little confused here. May I ask why you want this to automount? This was your suggestion in the tut. Did i misinterpret that? [2] You can also do a systemd automount. In this case I will create the mount point under /mnt: Select all //server/share /mnt/mountpoint cifs guest,uid=altair,nouni...

Altair4, A further hiccup i now have is that if the server is offline, then im unable to access local discs and directories, for about 5 minutes So i forgot to add x-systemd.mount-timeout=10 to fstab However having added in x-systemd.mount-timeout=10 i still dont have local access What am i doing wr...

Ok
so thank you i managed to get everything converted over.
Returned the older cifs method to nil
But

I still have the same issue.
There must be something on my pc thats causing the issue.
On the Vbox all went well for both users.

Thank you I created a new vbox to have a play with this bear in mind im following your instructions without fully understanding the ins and outs everything. so long as it works im happy so to that end i placed this in fstab: //192.168.5.102/ant /mnt/ant cifs -o username=ant,password=xxx,uid=1000,nou...

altair4
using autofs

I would be happy to change to x-systemd.automount if that's the way forward

Hi all, Recently i upgraded to mint 21.1 from 20.3 Mate edition I have conky running and i noticed that both ethernet and wifi had a constant stream of activity coming in, not much out. On 20.3 the wifi hardly ever showed activity but now is always busy. I was hoping someone here may have a few sugg...

PS dont buy this printer. expensive to run

Altair thank you as usual.

But i have to ask, why isn't networking ie samba and all components required, part of the package?


For a brand new user this is a big killer.
