linuxmint

Hi all! I was wondering if there was anyone who installed Linux Mint on their Non-Retina Intel Silicon Mac (the Mac’s up to/around 2012). I have a 2012 15 Inch Macbook Pro with an i7-3615QM. Between possible driver issues, and the fact that it’s a Mac with a 3rd Generation CPU, I’m not sure if I can get away with using it...

I have this laptop in front of me that is still on 20.1 and I am trying to get it upgraded to latest....

I’m testing, after many recommendations, a mint installation on my Lenovo yoga 720....

I recently bought a Lenovo L440 Thinkpad. Have installed Linux Mint on it and Keyboard backlit and touch pointer arent working. Rest is all fine. Can anyone help?

I just hibernated my laptop and then brought it back up, and it went straight into LMDE without asking me for a password on a lock screen. That seems… like weird behavior. Is there something I can set to fix that?

Anyone been able to set up a fingerprint reader in LMDE 6 with Cinnamon? I can use fprintd-enroll and fprintd-verify successfully, but it doesn’t show up in pam-auth-update so I don’t know how to add it to the login screen or the terminal.

Hey all,...

Worked with linux servers plenty with a development job but new to running at home and using a desktop interface. I’m using RDP to access the machine and have run into a few issues I’m not sure how to solve....

EDIT: thanks for the help. Solution was to connect my phone through USB and download the driver through it’s shared connection. Just plug in through USB, enable Hotspot, and enable usb tethering....

I have been testing for a few weeks Mint, originally started on 21.2 on an old 2012 MacBook Air… the OS was flying! As I was looking at this now 10 years old machine, now back to usable speed again I was pleasantly surprised. On my desktop was still running Fedora that is just a bit more shiny and has the latest “stable”...

Hi, I’m quite new to Linux. I installed Mint Cinnamon recently on a Windows laptop. Impressed....

Crossposted this on the main Linux Lemmy, but figured y’all would also appreciate it....

I added a YouTube livestream as a channel on Hypnotix. It was added to favorites automatically. I don’t see any UI to edit it. Is there a way to edit added channels?

The Linux Mint community has once again released a top-tier Linux desktop: Linux Mint 21.3 Virginia. I’ve used more Linux distributions than most people, and Mint is my favorite desktop distro....
