Just LM 19.1 test report

[mint18]

Just tested 19.1 64bit

Booting from USB stick take pause for 10-30 seconds with no USB mouse light and no light on USB stick then light up boot continue. Pause for USB ports reset ?

Terminal prompt color still just green for both user & root, LM 18.3 green for user red for root.

Simple System desklet not working.

SAMBA Windows Networking does not show anything, LM 18.3 show all devices.

Evaluated on Lenovo X220 laptop 4GRAm / 120G SSD

It would be helpful if you could submit your bugs as detailed in the LM 19.1 blog post.

Nothing got fixed, all reported problems persist, terminal user color still used for root account, SAMABA doesn't show up hosts, boot up still pause for 20-30 seconds before USB lit up.

Desklet works, the only fixed 3rd party item which was fixed.

Nothing got fixed, all reported problems persist ...

If you'd like to pursue resolving them, I would suggest posting each issue separately under a topic appropriate for each.

I noticed that icons on the desktop do not want to open, or if they do they take almost 1 second (or longer) to open. HTOP will not open from the desktop at all anymore. That is an issue.

NOTE: It does open if I launch it from the panel but not from the desktop.

What is your system and graphics adapter and flavor of Mint?

I just upgraded from 19.0 and it worked fine before and now on an Asrock J3455 w/onboard Intel graphics. Htop loads any way it is possible. I have yet to find any issues so it may be system specific. I am using the xfce flavor of 19 and 19.1. Works a charm and the upgrade was easy...congrats to Clem and the team. The only trouble I can find with Mint is that it is so good that it is boring...nothing to fix.

Had a really, really odd error; I bumped the touchscreen (which works under Mint), and the screen went completely black with a small blinking cursor in the upper left side of the screen. There was a small (maybe 1x1 inch) window with garbled colors. I had to hard reset the computer by holding the power button until it turned off. I then rebooted, and things worked fine. I have never seen that sort of error before. System report shows:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/linuxmint/mintinstall/installer/installer.py", line 532, in _task_error
del self.tasks[task.pkginfo.pkg_hash]
KeyError: 'apt:htop'

Yep there is a bug with desktop launchers for terminal applicatiioms in Cinnamon. See here for the workaround....
