• L50-b-24 x satellite overheating (Linux Mint)

  Hello
  my new laptop (where I removed Windows and installed Linux Mint) has a big problem of overheating.
  The temperature suddenly reached peaks of 70-80 c, even when the pc is idle. Then only I can hear fan spinning.
  I tried to change the configuration of grub as well, as suggested:

  GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT = "quiet splash acpi_osi ="Linux"" "

  This seems to bring a small improvement: there are less frequent peaks, but they are always there...
  Any suggestion?

  Hello

  This device is an i7 with external graphic.
  The two components will generate heat when used.

  You can check if there is a single process that pic when your temp goes up.
  You may disable any background service... ?

  As for AMD, you use the source driver full or closed?
  In any case, it may be useful test the other (change what you use to another).
  Maybe that can reduce the production of heat?

  Ultimately, check the version of the kernel.
  Kernel is currently at 4.3. Some interesting changes AMD has been implemented since 4.2.
  Don't think they are related cooling, but maybe it's worth a try.

• Satellite L50 - B - 1 K 1 - touchpad Linux mint

  I have a Toshiba satellite L50 B 1 k 1, after I installed Linux mint and I can't do the touchpad works, I need to use an external mouse
  Ι tried to press FN + f5 key in order to activate the touchpad, but unfortunately it is combination drives to the DISPLAY mode where normally should come out with the key FN + f4 , any ideas?

  When I go to the control panel mouse and pad touch I can see the external mouse and SynPS/2 Synaptics touchpad recognized by the system... both are enabled, but the touchpad does not work

  Problem, it's that Toshiba does not support Linux so you will not be able to find lots of information about Linux on Toshiba laptops.

  Try to check some Linux forum. You may be able to get a useful tip to other Linux users.

• Recovery Manager tries to 'recover' windows Vista after installing Linux

  Hello

  I installed linux Mint on HP EliteBook 6930p friend that has Recovery Manager on him. Linux works fine, but after choosing Vista in the bootmanager, it starts normally at first but then straight to the Recovery Manager, who wants to restore factory settings. Of course, we want to keep the current settings, how do we disable the Recovery Manager?

  Thank you in advance and the best,

  Steve

  I suggest you make a set of HP recovery disks or USB recovery media before deleting access recovery.

  Deactiviating Recovery Manager is too easy.

  Remove the recovery partition.

  Are you sure you want to do this? Activation, it is much more difficult.

  I hope that you advise your friend aware of the consequences of the removal of the partition.

  Why not run a live version of Linux Mint from a USB key instead?

  Best regards

• Linux Mint on Dell Inspiron 13 3521?

  Hi all!

  I bought 3521 Dell Inspiron notebook with Intel Pentium Dual Core 2127U with HD VGA, Ivy Bridge, Intel HM76 Express, 4 GB of RAM DDR3, 500 GB of HDD, Intel® HD graphics last week.

  It was pre-installed Ubuntu 12.04 oem on it and works perfectly. However, as the person who will use it has used to Win XP and Win 7 I think installing Linux Mint would be a better choice for her and I did. Unfortunately, LM 13 does not work by itself, I have graphics problems causing problem and make non-functional system and it of course because it lacks drivers included in the oem version of Ubuntu. I restored back oem Ubuntu but I wonder if there is a chance that I can get LM works on this laptop or I'm stuck with Ubuntu for good? Is it perhaps an oem version of LM for this laptop available or could we somehow build it using the drivers included on the Ubuntu Dell restore disc and exactly how can you remove it?

  13 LM is equivalent to Ubuntu, but you will probably need to update the stack of materiel support yourself.

  More information here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack

  The version of Ubuntu, delivered with your laptop is probably already set up with the battery on the right. Otherwise, there is no reason why Mint would not work while Ubuntu would.

  Another option is to use the latest version of Linux Mint (with cinnamon 2.0 which is a huge improvement).

• Linux Mint 14

  I bought an Inspiron 17R 5720.  We want to know if I will have problems if I install Linux Mint 14 on that?

  Hi RJ78,

  This system has not been tested on the environment Linux, so there is no drivers and associated OS support provided by Dell.

• Replace Windows XP with Linux Mint in a Win 7 Multiboot system.

  My current setup is a system to multiboot with three partitions on my drive system 0). D/Windows XP, Partition partition E / Data Partition and Partition C/Windows 7. My secondary drive, which is not really from this dialog box has 4 partitions for backups, system, system, and application paging areas and free space. This system works perfectly, with Windows 7 the initial boot process management.

  My main goal and the basis of this announcement is to find the best way to replace my Windows XP with Linux Mint partition. Which of the following statements is the most logical, or is it yet another less dangerous path?

  1 install Linux over XP?
  Should I clean just format the current XP partition and install Linux Mint top, leaving the windows 7 partition in tact? Will be the start menu still works even if it is Windows 7 really think it offers a startup XP option which in reality would be Linux.

  2. approach Ground Zero?
  Should I reformat the drive and set up the three partitions Virgin followed of a clean intall (ouch) of Windows 7, followed a new Linux installation, and then, I'm guessing that installation of Grub to manage the startup process. ? I don't think I can use an image backup file of windows 7 (image for dos) since it will wait for a XP startup option. Windows 7 does not save/restore Win 7 without Win XP.

• Cannot boot windows from usb after installing linux

  Hello.
  I bought a laptop (lenovo g500s) provided with windows 8. At the beginning, I decided to try linux and I installed Linux Mint for a few months.
  But now I want to install Windows 7 and I already have the. ISO burned on my USB key.

  When I start the USB is not recognized. And who does not come with linux distributions, I've been able to start without problems.

  I think it has something to do with UEFI, but I'm not sure.
  If I choose Legacy support, will not read USB. If I choose the UEFI, it says something about IPv4 and IPv6 on the trunk, and then an error occurs.

  Someone has an idea of what it could be?

  Thanks to all who responded.

  So, I just had to burn the. ISO with the compatibility of the UEFI.
  Secure boot was already off for me, so it was fairly easy to start.
  Now, my windows is running!

• 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

  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.
