Please run this in terminal, so we can identify the event (file in /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/) which is raised too many times and causes your kworker problem. tail -n +1 /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/* If you see one of the gpeXX files which is enabled and shows a number over 10,000 you can prob...

That is just because of an outdated list of device names used by lspci, which does not influence drivers in any way. You can fetch a new one with:

Which kernel version are you using? You can find that with: uname -r You can use http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=40185 to upgrade if necessary. Ubuntu 15.10 has a 4.2.x kernel. (The x numbers are updates with bugfixes, usually you should install the latest one if you are offered...

Do you get a list of networks (SSID and a lot of technical data such as channels) when you run:

The Mint 17.x versions are all based on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, that probably explains why the hardware isn't working yet even though it works in Ubuntu 15.x. You could try installing the newer linux-firmware package from Ubuntu 15.10 which does include the file skl_dmc_ver1.bin: http://mirrors.kernel.org...

oem-audio-hda-daily-lts-vivid, 0.201509251531~ubuntu14.04.1: added That is actually not the driver I told you to install. For your 3.16 kernel with Mint 17.x the file you need from https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-dev/+archive/ubuntu/alsa-daily/+packages is "oem-audio-hda-daily-lts-uto...

I'm sorry, it was dkms status. Could you run that and post the output?

Do you see any log file in the directory /var/log/sssd/ for your domain? If yes please post its contents. For files like these, it is better to use code tags when pasting on the forum, i.e. when posting a reply select the text from the file and click the Code button. That will allow us to scroll thr...

I see you uncommented and changed this line in the file sssd.conf: ad_server = msc-internet.local That is your domain name, not the address of the Active Directory server. The comment above it, also indicates you only need this if your computer is unable to find this server. Could you perhaps commen...

The Linux Mint team generally does not work on hardware support, that is already handled by other projects such as the Linux kernel and some people at Debian & Ubuntu on which Mint is based. The improvements Mint did to 17.3 Mate are about easier configuration of touchpads, such as selecting the...

Please paste the contents of these files:
/etc/krb5.conf
/etc/samba/smb.conf
/etc/sssd/sssd.conf

The names of the ubuntu versions are about the Linux kernels they are compatible with- all driver packages essentially contain the same driver. Please run in terminal and post the output: dkms list What you can also try, go to Preferences > Sound in the menu, on the Output tab try selecting differen...

This is very new hardware, you could try updating sound drivers. Please go to https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-dev/+archive/ubuntu/alsa-daily/+packages For Mint 17.x with the Linux 3.16 kernel, click the arrow next to "oem-audio-hda-daily-lts-utopic-dkms", then under Package files ...

Please open Terminal from the menu, type the following command: inxi -Fx Then please press Enter, wait for the output and copy/paste it to the forum. (Note: inside the terminal window, use Ctrl-Shift-C or right-click > Copy, instead of Ctrl-C) That will show us your hardware and drivers. Supposedly ...

In your latest wireless-info, I still see a file called /etc/modprobe.d/broadcom-sta-common.conf which blacklists the open-source drivers for Broadcom. Did you uninstall the STA driver (proprietary driver for some Broadcom devices)? It does not support any of the SDIO devices as far as I know. If yo...

This ThinkPad has a so-called "UltraBay" which allows you to hot-swap the DVD drive with another device. Have you already tried taking out the DVD drive, cleaning the connector of any dust and putting it back in? You can likely take out the drive using a switch next to it, which you push t...

Indeed at the top of the how-to, you are asked to install realmd, sssd, and a few other programs using an apt-get command. Installing them was indeed the right thing to do.

Do you mean, you want to disconnect the VGA monitor but disconnecting it is causing problems? On my ThinkPad T60 connecting & disconnecting a VGA monitor works fine. Please explain in more detail what you are trying to do. And to provide some information about your graphics hardware please open ...

I found a newer how-to at: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-join-ubuntu-14-04-to-active-directory-using-realmd.html This is probably easier with newer versions of Linux. Note however that he uses vi as text editor- feel free to use gedit or nano instead of vi in the commands, if you did not learn to...

Il est pas lié à ta problème, mais je vois que ta carte wifi apparaît dans inxi comme "Ralink Device 539b". Parce que je maintiens la base de données de noms de périphériques PCI, j'aimerais savoir quelle carte wifi tu as, pour faciliter l'identification de la carte wifi dans nouvelles ver...
