Re: 21.2 update problems - green screen

Same problem for me... I had to backtrack in my kernel to be able to use my computer... :( I kept getting back into the .86 kernel and the green screen so I removed the .86 kernel and using the update manager set it to ignore future upgrades to the .86 kernel.

Re: 21.2 update problems - green screen

NO JOY: The Release Notes for 21.2 has a section titled " Solving freezes during the boot sequence " that sounds similar this problem. Even though I have an AMD video board instead of NVIDIA, I tried the listed fixes to no avail. I gave up and went back to vmlinuz-5.15.0-84-generic. Ironic...

Re: (solved) Febsmart Wifi 6 PCIE (ax200) with NGW (AX3000/Bluetooth)

FWIW - On Manjaro with kernel 5.15-65.1, with Google Speed Test I was getting 55.7mbs download until I changed to kernel 5.19-7.1, which definitely includes iwlwifi at which time my download jumped to 154 Mbps. I pay for 100Mbps service so this is excellent! BTW: I didn't do a modprobe or anything o...

ACL on usb Memory Sticks - how to eliminate

Every usb memory stick that I insert now is read-only due to ACL. I have tried setfacl -b and chown without really obtaining a writable state. Personally, I'd like to totally eliminate ACL, at lease for auto-mounted media and maybe for the whole system. How can I achieve this? System: Host: bergamon...

Re: a2p - Awk to Perl translator - Missing??

Thanks catweazel. I've git cloned the repository https://github.com/Leont/app-a2p.git but I am unfamiliar with the build system used by the author. NO .config or Makefile. I have no idea how to build it.

Re: rules.d not creating ttyUSB0|1

Since my two USBasp devices are Chinese-made and several years old, I suspect that their FTDI chips are probably counterfiet. I am growing suspicious that FTDI may have inserted their malicious code into Linux. It is widely publicized about what they did to Linux drivers ( http://hackaday.com/2016/0...

rules.d not creating ttyUSB0|1

I have two USBasp AVR/Arduino programmers. Both worked flawlessly on previous Mint versions. I haven't used them for a couple of years and discovered that I couldn't use them on Mint 17.3 because plugging in the USB cable (idVendor=16c0, idProduct=05dc) no longer created a /dev/ttyUSB0. I have tried...

Re: Usbasp programmer

I have two Usbasp programmers, it is the original one - a small black box slightly smaller than a pack of cigarettes. Its USB ID is the same as shown in the Germany link. Both of these used to work fine on previous versions Linux Mint but on 17.3, I cannot get a /dev/ttyUSB0 to be created. I've stru...

Re: gnubiff popup fails

Message 28 at link below fixed it for me.
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugrepo ... bug=718311

Excerpt:
A workaround to the popup height issue:
1 - in line 46 of /usr/share/gnubiff/popup.ui, set the False to True

Log out/login and it is fixed - at least it was for me.

I am researching a similar issue. After upgrading to Mint 17.1, WINE no longer works. From what I have discovered, 17.1 kernel is 3.13 and 16-bit apps are broken there. There is a temporary fix in kernel 3.15 and a permenant fix in 3.16. I think that you and I are currently out of luck. READ: https:...

Shotwell only works with Gnome. To use with XFCE you must apply my previously posted fix.
