Hi cyberguy03
Linux Mint 2.0 has only been in circulation for about a month. Check the last 30 days to see where it is on the top ten list: Fourth!

Hi all,
Is there another program besides a Torrent that will resume broken downloads?

unfortunately i wasn't born with linux in my brain so i have to ask questions. how do i install tar ball packages on debian based systems? is there a tar ball installer that i can download through kpackage or synaptic? preferably something easy. [/quote] Hi Trippoxer, I have a problem with tar ball...

Yes definitely. Clem The reason for Mint's success is the fact that it uses Ubuntu as it's base, Which means having all the repositories available in Ubuntu. But improvements added by Mint are welcome and desirable. Adopting what's better, even if it comes from another Linux flavor, is a wise choic...

Hello Clem,
I tried the Mint RSS feed and was redirected to Ydemos at every entry.
It's a good way to brush up on my French, but....Je ne suis pas tres bon avec mon Fransais,
Thought you would like to know about this bug.

Sorry Clem, but I seem to have deleted my bookmarks. No problem now.

Hi Clem,
May I suggest Gbebi to be added as a default package to BEA?

Next question: What happened to Linux Mint and Linux Mint Forum bookmarks in Firefox? Am I the only one to have lost them?

Hello everybody,
I just installed Exaile on BEA and I found out I can have many flavors of music, from Opera to Blue Grass. All the stuff coming from radio stations without interruption.
Great for background music while browsing the Web.

Exaile came as default in Barbara.

Hi, We've tried Picpac's layout and it looked better than the original. However, we got our final inspiration from the Tomboy Notes website and designed a version of our own based on their CSS. Have a look here and tell us what you think. http://linuxmint.com/index2.html Clem Clem, going to this li...

Hello Clem,

In other words a good paint job was needed. Of course the extra softwar...

Hi Alephcat,

It's not a bad idea to see where everybody in the forum comes from. I Besides, it makes the Forum attractive to the eyes.

I thought I could get my avatar from the desktop but I see it can't be done.
When I do this in the avatar console, I get this message: Your profile has been edited.

Well, I tried linking to my desktop to get my Socrates avatar, but I found out that it didn't work.

I was only kidding, Fragadelic. But I think I started the movement myself, when I asked Clem if MInt was a Canadian- based project.
You know, the French and all.

But I'm trying to use Socrates as my avatar. Don't you think the fellow deserves it?

Cheer up root. This is only the beginning.

As you can see I picked mine!

Are you fellows starting a nationalistic movement?
