#Linuxmint

Hi fellow 'Minter's'. Some tech support would be greatly appreciated atm.

I thought the need for an ethernet connection during LM 22.1 installation/initial setup was overcome years ago. But apparently not, unless I'm missing something.

The desktop is running LM no worries, but won't pick-up the wifi connection without the correct drivers, which I can't update without internet, and the loop begins.

I have had this machine running LM via wifi for ages, but started having disk errors(sorted now) so I started from scratch with a full reinstall using LVM for my extra HDD's.

Any suggestions welcome before I consign this Mac Pro 5,1 to the boat anchor it should be.

Cheers.

In case anyone else is on #Icedrive #Linux. If I log out, the login screen loads next time around, THEN the dashboard shows.

However subsequent loading of the app causes the Black Screen of Doom.

No other application I have installed has this behaviour, but then again I don't know whether I have other apps that have the same dependencies.

On Linux, their "install" is an "AppImage" in case that changes anything.

So, generally #linuxMint cinnamon does a great job of staying out of my way. However I am starting to dislike Nemo, the file manager because it does not update the contents of whatever folder is displayed until I manually navigate out of and back into said folder.

Anyone know how to make Nemo actually, accurately show what's in the folder in realtime, or should I try to find a diferent file manager I dislike less?

GMs of the fediverse, I need your help! I'm trying to find a piece of software that will enable me to play my own custom music and sound effects online for the players in my TTRPG campaigns.

It needs to be linux-compatible, and let me play my own stuff - not stuff streamed from YouTube or any other site. Does such a thing exist?

So excited to get scanning on my HP printer working on #linuxmint! The built-in document scanner app was a no go, but with a bit of googling, I found HPLIP and installed it, got it going, and it's working like a champ.

Microsoft will officially end support for its most popular operating system - Windows 10 - later this year, on the 14th of October 2025 to be exact. Here are 5 options on how to deal with this. For me it already has been "option 3. Ditch Windows completely", in favor of Linux Mint.

Another angle of security: It is time to create a "Euro-Linux" and to make its use mandatory within EU (esp. for government staff and schools). The development should be distributed among EU member states and their best IT departments (at the universities). The developers should be employed full time and Europeans.

#linuxmint could be a good starting point.

Finally (finally…) dipping my toes properly into the waters of #Linux*. I’ve gone with #LinuxMint as a beginner distro and so far so good.

*This is not exactly true. I did attempt to use one of the Red Hat products about 25 years ago and, well, let’s just say we weren’t the best of friends…
