@69pimpstick Oh Heck yeah! uninstall Vista. But I suggest dual booting your computer with Windows 7 AND Linux mint. Cause Vista sucks but Windows 7 is the bomb!
@jharris216 so is this OS that is screwde an upgrade from an older version? that is common
do a clean install to fix it
report the bugs to canonial if its like this on clean or live cd
@OSGUIShow what does that mean? I’ve used ubuntu for 2 years. But something always gets broken in every release. I dont understand. Is it because of something with nautilus or maybe removing hal or what? It boots fine but wont recognize anything!
@jharris216 tghats very strange and yes unheard of
sounds like your OS is screwed, which often happens when new users try to treat linux as if its windows
can anyone tell why ubuntu and linux mint 9 CANNOT read my usb drive, my cd drive or my home partition? It seems to be a nautilus issue (thunar and dolphin work) yet not one reviewer, not one forum, not one poster on here seems to have this issue. I have a nc6000 compaq and I just want one linux that FINALLY works 100% on a BASIC level.
@MicroHelper oh ok mate i just had only wanted mint 9 as my os and not windows… so i thot i shud install completely lol and remove vista
@69pimpstick NOoooo. Don’t install it. you shouldn’t inputed the disk in Windows 7 and choose “Install Inside Windows” . Do you still have Windows 7? If not, YoU removed it! And now you only have Linux mint! D:
im confused.. i want to install mint 9 and my computer is 32 bit but i dont see any specific downloads. ubuntu has a download that says 32 bit in it but mint doesnt. when i burned the cd and tried to install i wouldnt work normally so i had to install from cd then reboot… so i chose the mint 9 OS when i was prompted to at the startup menu and got to the first mint loading screen but then at the second stage it wouldnt load past the initramfs part… wtf fml i dont wanna but win 7. help?
The final release of Mint 9 is now available, 21+ or more bugs have been fixed since the RC release.
@ortafunk i dunno because i do not have them
but i did do a vide on how my TV DVB USB turner works in ubuntu / linux mint
and if you are using USB cable from modem to PC then switch to Ethernet
USB for Internet is the worst way to connect – Ethernet is the only good way
if the modem has no Ethernet plug, go buy a new one thet do not cost much money
Will Linux Mint 9 Isadora be able to operate Windstream DSL modem and TV Wonder 600 USB
@OSGUIShow Thanx. I downloaded Mint 9 to a cd and ran the program but it will only work for a few minutes then it freezes. whats going on?
@atum9ankh Linux Mint 9 – always recommend Mint to new users
Mint saves hours of extra setup that is required in Ubuntu
I’m new to Linux and would like to know which would be a better fit Mint9 or Ubuntu. I’m not a computer novice but I’m no expert either.
Please help?
@Boombox198719 you are very welcome mate
thank you very much
@HalomasterObi1177
yep very true
Linux mint is just like its name, always refreshing
@revsoldest1 yay hehe
@ve3tru lol ok
yep
true
and i seen some crazy stupid advise / feedback from mint forums ppl
I think it looks too much like windblows so I don’t like it. some apps wont work on it only ubuntu and the community is smaller so there not as much help out there.
Ubuntu 10.04 has lots of bugs, mint is based on it. They should wait until they get them sorted out.
Its great for the newbie its layout is closest to winblows, and it installs most of the stuff you need upfront unlike Ubuntu. Best distro for the new linux user.
my fav linux is linux mint
@iguanae some PPA’s do not work in Mint because they have a script or something to make them only work in Ubuntu and if Ubuntu OS name has been changed they do not work… Play Deb for example half the games will not work in Mint
@melroy89 hehe
@OSGUIShow why wouldn’t you recommend this for long-term users?
