@itsfoss Linux Mint - and not because of any deficiency on its part. LM is a really great X11 based distro. I wanted GNOME, and to sink my teeth into Wayland.

Do any users of #GIMP on #Linux know how to install the in-development version of the Resynthesizer plugin, called the "resynthesizer3 branch"?
Despite being a Linux user, I've maybe "cloned, built and installed" two things since 2019...so I need instructions-for-dummies.
I'm just missing a couple of the healing functions from Resynthesizer as it was far better at it than I am doing it manually.
Thanks.
Ich kann mich (noch) nicht entscheiden, womit ich ein Notebook für mich neu aufsetzen möchte.
Auf der Shortlist stehen
- GhostBSD
- Linux Mint
- Void Linux
- Windows 11
Ich hätte am liebsten ein System ohne systemd, mit aktuellen Paketen, einigermassen schnell und einfach aufgesetzt, mit Festplattenverschlüsselung und mit einem stabilen Update Prozess.
Was würdest Du nehmen?
#OS #Linux #Unix #BSD #GhostBSD #LinuxMint #VoidLinux #Windows11
Yo, #askfedi what is a fast & simple image editing software u can use other than #GNUImagingSoftware aka G*MP?
I'm thinking along the lines of #irfanview from back in the day with tons of keyboard shortcuts for quickly resizing photos.
I use #LinuxMint.
I've been using Mint exclusively for the last four years or so, and I'm generally completely happy and satisfied and I don't miss Windows at all.
Except for one thing: Windows terminal.
And actually just one part of Windows terminal: being able to give different names to tabs.
I don't want to use a different terminal with AI bullshit or anything, I just want to have different names in tabs.
Anybody?
Could anyone spare a "Like" for these kids who are trying to plant some seeds of Open Source in the USA Midwest?
PixelfedOpen Source Club at OSU (@osc_osu@metapixl.com)Windows and macOS marketing has made it seem like they're your only options when it comes to computer operating systems, but did you know there's more to choose from? If you're interested in getting Big Tech away from the front line of your digital tech use, come learn about what Linux on the consumer desktop looks like!
Do folks have a fave Linux user guide (for just basic "getting the OS to work and keep working", not any other fancy tricks)? My understanding is that Mint is the best distro for end users with no interest in learning tech wizardry or command line shenanigans, but even Mint's user guide isn't really a manual that ordinary people could follow without doing a lot of searching and forum-crawling to make sense of things or figure out how to actually carry out the guide's instructions. I'm not going to be able to convince people to switch from Windows if they have to invest this much time and learn this much new stuff.

If Linux is so good, how come they haven't released a Linux Millennium Edition yet?

Oiselarius (he/him) @codemonkeymike @matsuzine I have just put #LinuxMint on a 5-ish year old HP that wasn’t running Win10 (which it was designed for). It’s not as snazzy as my MacBook Pro but it’s definitely working great now. My only problem is Steam, which just won’t run my games on in spite of it being a Linux app.
I have a 10-ish year old ASUS I’m going to try next and I found a 25-ish year old Compaq that I won’t try it on because the rubber/silicone? parts of the case are breaking down. 
Schwiegereltern auf #linux umgestellt. Für Browser, Libreoffice und Digitalkamera braucht es kein Windows mehr. #linuxmint

@retrovulcano nunca he entendido está distribución.
Siendo una derivada de Ubuntu, a su vez derivada de Debian, me parece más interesante #LinuxMint que no tiene ninguna restricción por la que necesites pagar (puedes donar si quieres apoyar el proyecto), tienes paquetes flatpack, tienda de aplicaciones, distintos escritorios, etc. Me parece muy buena distribución para empezar.

@HSB Gelegenheit genutzt, #linuxmint installiert und #microsoftwindows auf meinem 6 Jahre alten Rechner so gut wie möglich platt gemacht. Ganz lieben Dank an euch im #HSBI, es war ein angenehmer und lehrreicher Nachmittag!
This is too bizarre.
HP ProOne G4 400 All-in-one PC:
- Win 11 is 100% stable, even in stress test
- #LinuxMint and #Debian randomly reboot leaving *nothing* in logs or dmesg
- tried 3 different drives, internal and external, 3 clean installs, no difference
- Memtest is fine, board diag passes, drives checked for errors, fine
- Everything I can test passes
- various power management settings in BIOS, no dice
- no issues in Linux other than these random reboots
Any tips? I'm out of ideas

Bye Bye Windows 7 
Bonjour #LinuxMint pour la salle de l'internat de mon lycée 
Continued thread
Ils/elles reconditionnent sous #Linux, plus léger que Windows, des PCs ainsi sauvés de la benne. Ces PCs équipent familles de lycéens en fracture numérique avec #Linuxmint et des écoles primaires.
Une salle 
% #logicielslibres flexible, ergonomique, adaptée PMR avec 3 bureaux électriques, et conviviale avec un coût logiciel nul ou presque :
- Pcs reconditionnés intégrés au réseau pédagogique (#Linux, #Firefox, #libreoffice, #Python, etc.)
- Zone Multimédia (#VLC, OBS, Kdenlive, Audacity)

What would be the benefit of using #mpv over the go to #vlc ?
I had no idea about #Flowblade! Currently learning #kdenlive because #davinciresolve on #linux is a bit spotty right now. Made the switch from #windows to #linuxmint a few weeks ago and been incredibly happy so far.
Thanks for posting about all these neat open source/linux film tools!
Salut,
ceci est mon premier pouet posté depuis un ordinateur tournant sous #linux N'allez pas croire pour autant que je suis devenu un geek ou que j'y comprends quoique ce soit, mais depuis le temps que ça me taraudait.... En vrai, je ne suis pas totalement libéré de Windows, pour l'instant j'ai gardé mon ordi sous windows et acheté un autre (à 30€!) sous #linuxmint comme ça je peux me familiariser sans pression, avant de n'avoir plus que ça.
