Re: Will not restart after suspend/
Me too. I have stayed on Mint 19.3 Cinnamon and always take all updates available. Just the last few days my Dell XPS15 laptop suspends when I close the lid, but is unresponsive when I reopen it. Normally, any keyboard input or a brief press of the on button or a mouse click will bring up the login ...

Re: Canon LiDE or Epson V?
Interesting. The version I installed says that it is Image Scan 3.61.0.
I can easily uninstall it, and then try your link. Sadly, I'm too busy at the moment to devote much time to this, but I'll let you know how I get on. Thanks for the pointer.

Re: Canon LiDE or Epson V?
Hi AZgl1500, thanks for the reply. I have already got Xsane installed, as it uses the rubbish scanner on my WiFi Canon MFP (TS8150). The Canon works fine with Xsane, Gimp and SimpleScan. The system just can't connect to the Epson scanner though. I've installed the Epson drivers from their website, b...

Re: Canon LiDE or Epson V?
Well, the scanner arrived today and I have successfully scanned and printed the Christmas Card. However, I had to use that horrible other OS on my laptop that is named after the place that lets light into the room :cry: I have installed the Epson ImageScan 3.61.0 on my system, and it simply doesn't ...

Re: Canon LiDE or Epson V?
Thanks for the advice, absque fenestris. I have ordered the Epson scanner, as a distressed purchase to see if it will work for me, just before I saw your reply. Years ago I had an old Epson scanner that worked excellently for a very long time for this purpose, but it had a SCSSI interface and Win95 ...

Canon LiDE or Epson V?
I'm sorry if this has been asked before, but my searches so far seem to reveal that either scanner can be used, but both have difficulties to be overcome first. I am currently using Mint 19.2 Tina with Cinnamon desktop on a Dell XPS15 laptop. I have a Canon TS8150 multifunction printer/scanner, whic...

Re: UEFI and Dell, partitioning question. LM19.2 installation. [SOLVED]
Well, thanks gm10. That worked fine. I don't know now what that warning message was about, or why it happened. Now, I'm struggling with opening my clonezilla copy of my home directory to get everything back I've lost. I simple copy would have been better. Clonezilla is not well put together for boot...

@gm10. I can't seem to reproduce it now, sorry. I'll carry on and install, and let you know the outcome, maybe tomorrow.

Re: UEFI and Dell, partitioning question. LM19.2 installation.
Well, I'll try. In the live session from where I can get the message, I will have to try to log in to the forum and remember my password. I'll give it a go now."Can you post a screenshot of that warning just in case?"
Thanks again gm10.

Re: UEFI and Dell, partitioning question. LM19.2 installation.
Thanks gm10 (again!). However, you say not to touch the existing partitions at all, and I thought that was right, but the installer gives me a warning that they will not be usable? That's how I trashed my last Windows installation, on the 256GB SSD. I was trying to install over the old Linux with a ...

Hi. Sorry to be a pain, but I've been wrong before and don't wish to repeat the same mistakes. I've not dual booted for a long time, and can't remember where I used to go wrong. I'm using Win10 on a Dell laptop XPS15 9570 with a new SATA3 SSD added in for Linux Mint 19.2. The Windows supplied by Del...

Re: How to verify the ISO image on Windows
Thanks GM10 for your help here. I'm brain-fogged this morning from an illness I have, but no excuse. I should have read it more carefully. I'm now good to go once the new SSD arrives today. It'll be a relief to be back on Linux Mint, I'm missing it after a stupid error which left me in disaster reco...

Ah!! "Note: Unless you trusted this signature in the past, or a signature which trusted it, GPG should warn you that the signature is not trusted. This is expected and perfectly normal." Sorry everyone, I missed that.

Hi. I'm trying to download and verify the latest 19.2 Cinnamon image. I've got as far as a satisfactory integrity check, but have trouble with the authenticity check.

Re: Space problem in Root - tmp folder huge!
Thank you smurphos, and Larry78723. As I would like to continue using the Software Manager, and many things there are using Flatpak, I'll try the latest Flatpak version first and see how I get on. I can always disable Flatpak later if I'm still having the problem. I have already deleted the caches i...

Thanks thx-1138. I'll do that, but how do I stop this problem returning? I'd like a fix for the Flatpak problem, if anyone knows how.
