[SOLVED] System Problems.

Post by lifeyears »

I'm experiencing a problem and i don't know how to fix it and its on my desktop. files and windows don't open up properly and i don't know if i should download the operating system again or if there is something i can do on the terminal. I made a crap picture on how my thing looks like.

Hello, can you please post the result of the following terminal command, and enclose it in code tags? That's the button marked </>.
This is needed for pretty much any question about your system, so it's a good habit to post it straight away.

Code: Select all

If your issue is solved, kindly indicate that by editing the first post in the topic, and adding [SOLVED] to the title. Thanks!

I don't know, what the picture wants to tell. And I also don't know, what "open properly" means in detail: not at all, wrong size, unreadable text, ...? Please give more details.

He's trying to create a launcher, but no info on how he attempted to do this.
All things go better with Mint. Mint julep, mint jelly, mint gum, candy mints, pillow mints, peppermint, chocolate mints, spearmint,....

All Mint desktops look similar to your sketch, so this doesn't tell us anything. The report requested by Moem would tell us much more.

Does the problem appear for every program? Which did you try?
