@zcot and @ antikythera

Thanks to both of you for the helpful information.
I learned quite a few things in this thread.

@mikeflan

Thanks for your screenshot. It matches what I have and it is a good example if someone else reads this thread.

Thanks for this valuable information. Flatpaks are in the Startup. With flatpaks being updated automatically they are the same das PPA installations which also upgrade automatically. Step-by-step I understand flatpaks. Some flatpaks require a lot of diskspace. Are there certain package which are onl...

As long as it keeps the default version I now think about switching to flatpal

Is the flatpak automatically upgraded to the next version?

(I am not yet very familiar with flatpak and if the upgrade automatially)

@antikythera Flatpak - when you use the flatpak and get 7.x.x does you LMDE installation still keeps the original version 6.1.5? With other word do you have versions 6.1.5 and 7.x.x running in parallel? LMDE was my first LM installation I made. HW IBM Thinkpad X41. It is not updated but when I switc...

I found the solution in another version of the xsane manual. The format of the filename needs to be xxxxxx0001. xxxxxx is any character combination to used as filename with any character as separator between the xxxxx and the number. Start with 0001, set the step to 1 and the the numbers at the end ...

LM20 Cinnamon Xsane 0.999 The xsane manual says When the filename contains a counter at the end then the counter is updated by the selected step width when the scan has been completed. However, the manual says nothing about the format of this counter I tried: - # - % - & - $ non of these work. I...

@antikythera Thanks for your explanations. Here is something on the background. On my x230 LM20 Cinnamon machine I'm running LibO 6.4.x (default version) and parallel 7.0.3.x. this works nice but there is a small bug in Calc of 7.0.3.x. Hoping that this disappears in my x240 LM 20 Cinnamon machine, ...

@antikythera

Thanks, I followed your advice and used "Mark for Removal" (NOT Mark for complete Removal) doing so I could keep the config files.

Default version of LM 20 seems to run normal.

@antikythera

LM 20.0 Cinnamon I always have one or the other LibreOffice version parallel installed to the default version. (for safety reasons I always keep the default version of LibreOffice which came with my LM version) Now I want to purge LibO7.0.3.1 version and wonder if the command is correct: sudo apt re...

@kc1di
Thanks for your explanations.

"after my last access" - Now I know how I have to adjust the settings.

I don't have a limitation from the server provider. I share our own with my brother. Lucky me.

I am new to Evolution I have question about a POP account setting. Account Settings > Receiving Option > Leave messages on server + Delete after x days; x>0 Does this mean that messages are left for x days after arriving on the server or after the last download of the messages? downloading8 This und...

This post is a summary of the previous post viewtopic.php?f=47&t=335172

The problem is still unsolved I will re-install my PC. This is based on the observation that OKULAR works fine in other machines running LM20.

Okular runs fine on a LM 20 Cinnamon installation on an HP Vostro PC but it does not run on my workhorse PC a Thinkpad x230 with the same LM Cinnamon installation. What follows concerns the Thinkpad x230 installation only. Visible problems: - I cannot add notes and cannot see notes made in the Okula...

@wallyUSA

.... and I am in UTC+9.... 14 h difference. The world is round, fortunately!

@ wallyUSA

Thanks for your honest reply. I appreciate this as well all the hints I got from you.

I will see how I can/will continue.

Have a nice day as seem to be west of me.

@wallyUSA Thanks for your continous support!!! I read about the apt autoremove, Made a TimeShift backup, used apt remove --auto-remove packagename and immediately thereafter apt autoremove I rebooted the machine, opened the SW Manager, and search for "okular" I found as NOT installed; Okul...

@wallyUSA here is the update: I first purged "okular" with the terminal command. Then I still found "okular-backend"; kept it and installed Okular from LM SWManager: Them wrong behavior as before. Next I used Synaptic and removed completely - okular - olkular-backend What is left...

@ wallyUSA Thanks for your explanations. I don't know the version of Okular because I can't see it. Where "Help" is, I only see "No Text" I am pretty sure that I installed it from LM Software Manager, but will un-install it with command .........-purge.... and then re-install it....
