Hello everyone, When installing a fresh Linux Mint 20 - Cinnamon I have discovered a new "situation". Until LM 20 I always exported and imported my keyboard shortcuts like this : Import : sudo dconf load /org/cinnamon/desktop/keybindings/ < dconf-settings.conf Export : sudo dconf dump /org...

Ok,
thank you both for the suggestions and the help. I wish I could buy you a couple of beers )

if I may piggyback this thread to furthermore solve another thing about the mouse ... In Linux Mint is there a possibility to change the scroll number of the mouse-wheel ? I would like to make it scroll more "distance" $ xinput --list-props 12 Device 'Logitech Unifying Device. Wireless PID...
