• Desktop HP Pavilion 500-210 a: I want to try Linux Mint cinnamon from a USB key that I created but struggle after pressing F10

  I want to try Linux Mint cinnamon from a USB key that I created but struggle after press F10 and enter? BIOS - sound very unlike the BIOS on my old desktop WIN 7, any help at all would be great! I'm a technophobe bit I'm afraid. Thanks for reading.

  @muirbabe

  Please don't feel not bad not respond sooner.  I'm always notified when one of the sons that I am working on has a new addition.

  I don't know if you have a specific reason to use the Linux distro you chose or if you consider a recommendation.  I used Ubuntu (prn. oo-boon-too) for several years as a dual boot with Windows.  Not only is it a great distribution, but there is a very good Forum.  Not as good as this , but very good.  The members of the Forum are very useful.  You can give it a thought.  I think they would get you to the top and run very fast.

• Desktop Pavilion 500-210 a: do press F10 to enter the BIOS? I would like to try Linux Mint via USB

  Hi, thanks for reading.

  Am I right in thinking I have to get into the BIOS press F10? To get startup options?

  I would like to try Linux Mint on USB I already created.

  Thank you very much.

  Anthony

  Anthony, welcome to the forum.

  Yes, you start typing F10 as soon as the computer begins to start.  This will take you to the configuration of the BIOS page.  Then, search for the configuration of the boot order.

• Cannot delete messages on mozilla thunderbird on Linux Mint

  I can't delete messages on mozilla thunderbird on Linux Mint, delete no options works, so for me I found a temporal solution, which is to create a new folder inside the Inbox and then move mail in this folder, and then delete the folder. However, I think that this is not a good solution to delete emails, so I want an update, if possible, for linux mint which solves this problem.

  Greetings,
  Fragmentado

  If the Deleted foldre is full, he would accept no more deleted mail
  Is there a "Deleted" folder in your folder pane?
  If so, right-click on the deleted folder and select 'Empty Deleted' then right click again and select "Compact".

  new attempt to delete.

  If this does not work... try this:
  Remove the current file from the Recycle Bin, you will lose all the emails in the deleted /Trash folder.
  Make hidden files visible:

• topic: Home Search does not work in Linux Mint 15

  I recently installed a new copy of Linux Mint 15 (Cinnemon). It comes pre-packaged with Firefox, but after setting the homepage back to the default (subject: House), I noticed that the search bar on this page did not work. By this I mean that the form has not provided or by pressing Enter or clicking on the ' search ' button.

  I deleted all the Add-ons, removed and reinstalled Firefox several times, tried the Reset, and deleted, then recreated function profiles manually reset the options of configuration by default and any other thing I could think of. Nothing did.

  Some users of a similar question mentioned that helped chromeappsstore.sqlite deleted, but this file is never created for me. In addition, localStorage ["search-engine"] is not defined according to the console, but Google is defined as the defaultenginename.

  Any ideas on what else to try?

  See you again all search engines in manage search engines?

  You can check if you have the XML files including Google's default search engine in the browser/searchplugins folder in the Firefox program folder.

  If this isn't the case, then you need to reinstall Firefox.

• 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.

• Firefox sync (Linux Mint 17.02)

  Hey there! I tried to set up Firefox sync. Remove the .mozilla folder in my home directory synchronization does not work yet to reinstall Firefox several times. I tried to use Firefox 41.02 and 42.0.
  The sync connection is successful and Firefox tries to sync (blue circle), but nothing happens. When you go to about: preferences #sync, then to 'Manage', it takes a while to load before you get an "unexpected error".
  I'm trying to sync between my laptop and my desktop, the two Linux Mint 17.02.

  Any suggestions?

  Hello

  Your first journal suggests synchronization completed. It has a few warnings bookmark weird and disturbing, but otherwise it's okay.

  Your second newspaper told me that you are on a network of Unitymedia.

  You must reduce your MTU, so it doesn't cut it connections.

• Hello from Firefox with camera backwards (with linux Mint 17)

  Hello, I am running Firefox 36.0.1 and I tried the new addon from Hello. Unfortunately, my camera is displayed upside down. It was the same problem I had using Skype and I had to update libv4l and that worked. It still works now for Skype, but Hello the problem is back. (I use linux Mint 17)
  Any suggestion?

  Skype and Gtalk for linux are 64-bit by default, but Firefox is a 32-bit program (for now). LD_PRELOAD = /usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so will not solve this problem in Hello because it is a 64-bit library.

  Using /v4l1compat.so is the right idea, but that error "cannot open shared object file" comes from the kernel and not from Firefox. "Cannot open shared object file" means that the file is not there or that your user name is not allowed to read. Verify the path and permissionsv4l1compat.so (after checking that the library is there and that it has the appropriate permissions) and then try to run: LD_PRELOAD = / usr/lib32/libv4l/v4l1compat.so/usr/bin/firefox

• 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.

• 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.

• HP3521: HPLIP install not on Linux Mint 18 with XFCE

  I try to install HPLIP on a laptop Dell Latitude D510 with Linux MInt 18 with freshly installed XFCE.  Towards the end of the HPLIP installation, I get the following error message:

  Printer driver HP HPLIP installs not entirely:

  RE-CHECKING DEPENDENCIES

  error: a required dependency "libtool (libtool - library support services building)" is still missing.
  error: Setup cannot continue without this dependence.

  How 'manually install' this dependence and continue installing HPLIP?  The printer will print with the usb cord but I can't print or scan wireless. The hp-setup 192.168.1.117 command no longer works...

  Thank you.

  apt - get install libtool-bin

  It worked.  HPLIP now installs fine.  The problem is perhaps hplip - 3.16.7.run.  You can check...

• 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.
