• WRT120N does not accept my ID / password when you are using a linux (mint box)

  I have a LAN House running boxes with different OS.

  Browser can not perform authentication or authentication failed. »

  I don't see what I'm doing wrong, any advice would be appreciated!

  Thank you.

  Found the answer to a variety of messages earlier on this forum.

  The router will not accept authentication if the Firefox browser is set to 'Sites of Tell I want to be the subject of a follow-up'. Strange, but it seems to be a long-standing oopsie in the Linksys/Cisco software.

  Under Firefox 18.0.1 (running under Linux Mint), there is a checkbox entitled: sites say I won't be the subject of a follow-up. Located under Edit > Preferences > privacy

  I checked it and YES! My connection to the router WRT120N works now.

  Thank you very much indeed!

  BTW the firmware on my router WRT120N is 1.0.04Firmware Version: v1.0.04

• "Connection server failed" constantly popping up on sites popular randomly and unable to use FF on Linux Mint 17.1

  As above, websites at random and many of those that I use, say "Connection server failed" and then I can't even go to the Web site. I use FF 35.01 on Linux Mint 17.1. This has never happened before... Pages work fine on another device or Chrome!

  I found my problem!

  I checked the link you gave me, but none of the error messages that are matched. So, I googled the error message, and he apparently had to do with the date of my computer. The date was one day! And what to do with some https sites... Here is how I fixed / solved my problem:

• Portege R700-17Z - Linux Mint suspend related questions

  Hello. I've been running Linux (Mint 12, 64) successfully on the cell above. Only nagging problem, is that the brightness adjustment does not work once the machine went to suspend and vice versa. He also seems to be a problem related to hang with one of the USB ports.

  I hope that an update of the BIOS to 2.20 could improve things. T it?
  I found two versions of the BIOS. There is a stand alone ISO dated Jan 2012 you can be burned on a CD and the computer restarts from there. However, the README file. TXT, said
  README FILE. CDC TXT 2012-01-23
  ACPI BIOS Flash version 2.20 for Portege R700/R705 (* PT310U/PT311U/PT314U *)

  Does anyone know if it is safe and if it works the upgrade to this BIOS that does not seem to include PT310E? ("E" stands for Europe and "U" for the United States?)

  Second option is to try to http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/bios-20120207132338.zip whose support site allows in what concerns the P310E. I have to install Windoze 7 on another drive hard (I deleted it from my drive) and run this update of windows (I think it's necessary).

  Any ideas, I would be grateful...

  Hello Velastin

  As you probably know Toshiba doesn't support Linux and all updates, including updates to the BIOS, are offered for better functionality with operating system Windows. To be honest I have don t think that this update of the BIOS can help you, in your ad, the issues described.

  Have you tried to exchange their experiences on some Linux specific forum.

• Return to Windows Vista to Linux Mint

  Hi, for some reason my son decided to install Linus mint on a borrowed laptop computer that had Windows Vista installed. Is it possible to regain the Widows Vista laptop and the removal of Linux Mint. Unfortunately, we do not have a startup disk or one for Vista recovery disk. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

  The first thing you'll need to do is to contact the manufacturer of your laptop and
  see if there is a recovery mode which can be used without the DVD.

  Their web site can also have details on this process and will be easier and
  faster access.

  It is possible, there is one but when your son installed the second operating
  system, he deleted this ability, so you will need to order a replacement set
  the installation discs for the manufacturer.

• VMWare Workstation 12 and 18 of Linux Mint (Ubuntu 16.04) and vmware tools or open-vmware-tools

  I created a new virtual machine using VMWare Workstation 12.1.1 build-3770994 with a guest OS from Linux Mint 18 (which is built on top of Ubuntu 16.04). I have two monitors on my system, the two 2560 x 1440. I am unable to get this virtual machine Linux Mint 18 to cover all of my two monitors when I disable "Accelerate 3D graphics" in my vm settings, I get an error. I have another Linux Mint 17 VM running on the same VMWare Workstation 12 on the same host machine from Windows 10 and it is able to expand on my two monitors very well with "Accelerate 3D graphics" disabled, but he does not open-vmware-tools.

  I have read instructions telling me to install open-vm-Tools-Office in this guest operating system of Linux Mint 18. I did it. Then I restart the guest operating system. When starting, I can click on 'Enter full screen mode' in my menu of VMWare Workstation, and the guest OS has a monitor as expected. When I then click on "Cycle multiple monitors", I get the following error. "The virtual machine could not be changed to the selected screen layout. If you add a monitor to the host computer, you must turn off and turn on the virtual machine to use this monitor. »

  

  I can optimize my VM to automatic adjustment, only one of my two screens, but not both. I tried to uninstall and reinstall open-vm-tools, open-vm-tools-desktop and restart. I tried to use /vmware-tools-distrib/vmware-install.pl's original vmware tools and who does not work either.

  In my vmware.log, I get these two lines that occur when I get the above error.

  2016 07-12 T 15: 43:19.068 - 06:00 | MKS | I125: ToolsSetDisplayTopology: send rpcMsg = 1 DisplayTopology_Set, 0 0 2560 1440

  2016 07-12 T 15: 43:24.853 - 06:00 | vCPU-1 | I125: TOOLS of the call to DisplayTopology_Set failed.

  When I activate "Accelerate 3D graphics" with the configuration described above, I am able to use both of my monitors. Why is this the case?

  I think remember having to disable "Accelerate 3D graphics" in my Linux Mint 17 comments vm because it would crash randomly. I try to run this VM Linux Mint 18 with 3D acceleration and see if it crashes, but why is there a difference with spanning multiple monitors?

  Thank you.

  I didn't experience this problem for a few weeks. I don't have a definitive answer to my original problem.

  I installed Mate instead of cinnamon 3 to my MINT 18. Then, I created a new VM with Ubuntu Gnome 3 16.04 running as the OF. I did have problems with both approaches. I also tried using Firefox as my main browser instead of Chrome, as I read that Chrome can have problems of memory. It could be a combination of several of these changes that have allowed me to work without problems.

  Knowing what I know now, I think the move away from cinnamon 3 is what seems to have fixed my problems. I can certainly say that you use Firefox consumes less memory, as I can monitor the monitor system under Ubuntu. Chrome would eventually eat all my system memory, that I could see. The extent of the why? I'm not sure at this point.

• How to install VMware tools correctly on Linux Mint 15 cinnamon on Fusion 5.0.3

  Hello

  First of all, I understand that Linux Mint is not supported (side: anyone know if this will change?), so I appreciate any help.  My main problem is with the folders shared

  Dead ends

  So far, I've run into some dead ends:

  1. I watched install VMware Tools in Linux Mint 15 cinnamon (Olivia) - YouTube - but this facility has been the "'VMware Workstation 9.0.2 ' and the author admits"I don't know if it works or not with the fusion." "

  2 I downloaded a a copy of the latest vmwaretools for linux of deposit of CDS - /www/stage/session-32/cds/vmw-desktop/fusion/5.0.3/1040386/packages only to find it was exactly the same as the package vmwaretools this merger gives me at least VMwareTools - 9.2.2 - 893383
  

  Some success

  I had some mild success by running the following commands before installing - it seems to stop error messages:

  apt-get update
  sudo apt-get install build-essential
  sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
  sudo apt-get install xinetd
  

  But my MAJOR PROBLEM IS...

  When I try to activate the shared folders while the guest is running, I see a message:

  

  Or if I turn on shared folders when the guest does NOT work, I don't get an error message - but I don't see either record hgfs under/MNT

  Other research

  I read can't see the shared folders in Linux guest (Windows host) and Re: sharing files on drive betw host and the guest does not work on Ubuntu 13.04 and even tried to run the script vmtoolspatch of WoodyZ of this post - with the following result:

  user@GNS3WB62 /tmp/vmware-tools-distrib $ ./vmtoolspatch 
   
   
  patching file driver.c

  Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!  Assume -R? [n] n

  Hunk #1 succeeded at 62 with fuzz 2 (offset 12 lines).
   
   
  To install VMware Tools type the following
  commands, pressing Enter after each:
   
   
  cd /tmp/vmware-tools-distrib
  sudo ./vmware-install.pl
  

  But after the installation of the VMware shared folders tools has not always worked.

  My plea

  Someone has successfully shared folder with Linux Mint 15 cinnamon (32 bit - no codecs) invited 5.0.3 fusion and if so could you share the steps that you used?

  My system Details

  I tried this using VMware Fusion 5.0.3 in both a

  MacMini running Lion Server (OS X 10.7.5) 2 GHz Intel Core i7 16 GB of DDR3 memory and a

  MacBook Pro running 2.8 GHz Intel Core Duo 8 GB DDR3 (OS X 10.8.4) Mountain Lion

  I have only this tried using Linux Mint 15 cinnamon (32 bit - no codecs)

  Well, starting with the basic installation created by using the linuxmint-15-cinnamon-dvd-nocodecs-32bit.iso image under VMware Fusion 5.0.3 I did the following.

  sudo apt - get install linux-headers-$(uname-r)

  sudo ln-s/usr/src/linux-headers-$ (uname-r)/include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h /usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname-r)/include/linux/version.h

  Excerpt from vmtoolspatch.zip in my Home Directory.

  Excerpt from the VMware Tools VMwareTools - 9.2.2 - 893683.tar.gz to: / tmp

  Open a Terminal, by default, the base directory, then:

  wkz@linuxmint15x86nc ~ $. / vmtoolspatch

  patch the file driver.c

  patching file inode.c

  To install VMware Tools, type the following command

  commands, pressing ENTER after each:

  CD/tmp/vmware-tools-distrib

  sudo./VMware-install.pl

  wkz@linuxmint15x86nc ~ $ cd/tmp/vmware-tools-distrib

  wkz@linuxmint15x86nc/tmp/vmware-tools-distrib $ sudo./vmware-install.pl

  Once VMware Tools have been installed, I rebooted and had access to the VMware shared folders.

  So it works with the basic install however I do not run apt - get update then apt - get upgrade or use one kernel other then the default.  So once the changes then the scrip may not work and I don't have time to test each variable and am just trying to give some automated solution just to make it easier to patch based on what is said in the Notes section in the script.  Really don't want to maintain it and others can build on this and or do something similar.

  Make sure that the stamp of Date/time on the file vmtoolspatch is Jul 15 00:04:00 2013 as who has worked with this test.

• Firefox under linux. After system updates. ASPX pages is more recognized. How can I cancel or difficulty?

  I saw the first time this question after automatic ubuntu updated about 2 weeks - Zorine Linux.
  So yesterday, I built a new Linux MINT. Went straight to sverigesradio.se and when I clicked on the image of radio at the bottom of the page, the link to CHARLES IN, it worked OK - it was offending him. Example ASPX I have problems with on the other pc.
  Then the PC has received 243 automatic updates and today, I have the same problem as the PC Zorin.
  When I try to open an ASPX link I wonder what application can use.
  I am the only one in the world with this problem?
  No problem with Chrome.
  Thank you

• Linux Mint - no adjusting brightness on Satellite L45-B4182SM

  Hello world

  I recently bought a L45-B4182SM and I switched from Windows to Linux Mint 17 8.1. Everything seems to work properly. However, brightness (F3 and F3 keys) control do not work. I would like to know if anyone has faced this problem before, and if it is possible to fix it.

  Say hello to everyone.

  Hello

  Under the windows keys F feature is controlled by special tool designed by Toshiba Toshiba utility feature key.
  As far as I know Toshiba does not support Linux so these tools does not exist for Linux operating systems.

  I m not Linux user, but I guess that there must be another (Linux option) option for the brightness adjustment.

• Card nvidia, Linux Mint and W520?

  I'm on a W520 possessing a videocard of nvidia Quadro 1000 m, running Linux Mint 17 xfce (64-bit)

  Recentley, I came across a situation that required OpenGL 3.3. Best I can tell, my card intel integrated can support above 3.1!

  So I went to try to get the nvidia card work. Note to all the world at this point... Installation of the nvidia proprietary drivers directley Apparentley is the worst thing to do.

  I went to install the drivers of bumblbee (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee) and have since been frusterated with an nvidia card not working.

  I went to the cat bourdon, scourd the web for my problem, tried to re - install on a fresh USB... Nothing works.

  Has ANYONE else been in this situation? What are the steps that you took to get a functional nvidia card?

  Heres a dump of information from my problems. Basically, running glxgears optirun does not work.

  I have no experience with anything else that Fedora works on my W520, but before installing dual boot linux partition, I turn it on discrete rule. It is a bit of annoyance to have this go in the BIOS before the OS, but it of the only way I got everything to go smooth and figures.

• All-in-one Deskjet 4535: Deskjet 4535 AIO - Scanner function not supported in Linux Mint 17.3?

  I just bought the all-in-one Deskjet 4535. As I could not set up in Linux Mint 17.3 using hplip 3.15.2 and hplip-gui (it wouldn't appear in the peripheral installation dialog box), I used the utility printers (system-config-printer) and configured through CUTS. Even then, I was forced to use the driver 4510, as a driver of 4530 series does not seem to exist.
  After having done that, I can print it, but I can't use the "Simple Scan" scanner or any other utility to scan.
  I also tried to detect the network with xsane Analyzer, but it would not detect it.

  The only way to use the scanner is via the web interface, the all-in-one offers fortunately.

  Is there something else to try? The 4535 is supported under Linux or am I out of luck?

  Well, I went to hplip.sourceforge.net and I should have started with it in the first place. I solved the "problem" in downloading and installing the latest version of hplip that supports the 4535 entirely. The repo of Linux Mint has an outdated version of hplip and 4535 needs at least version 3.5.11 to work properly. Use the latest version fixed it immediately.
