Three years ago I became a Linux Mint user after more than 20 years of Windows usage. And I'm still glad that I switched, but...
...two issues are getting more and more annoying and both problems appear after the pc ist running for a few hours.
1. Nemo isn't working anymore. I can't start it and when I try to save a file (f.e. a Gimp file) it's impossible to do that because the file manager doesn't show anything in the save file window.
2. My pc doesn't shut down. It hangs with the Mint logo in the middle of the screen but I have to switch the power off to complete the shut down process.
I looked through this forum but couldn't find any help (maybe I used the wrong search phrases).
I got a new pc a few weeks ago and I hoped that would solve the problems but it didn't. Anyway, my PC configuration is:
- - Linux Mint 18.1 Cinnamon 64-bit (3.2.7)
- Kernel 4.8.0-49-generic
- Intel Core i5 3,1 GHz x 4
- 12 GB RAM
- 128 GB SSD HD
- 500 GB internal HD (Windows partition for Dual Boot)
- 3 TB external HD (USB 3.0) (mounted via fstab into some home folders)
- Nvidia graphics card using nvidia-375 driver (version 375.39)
Thanks in advance.
