No major issues, for the weather applet problem it was just a matter of installing gconf from the software center and configuring the weather settings from there. Very nice indeed.
I'll put Olivia on a spare laptop I have somewhere I simply don't have the balls to put it on my main machine, - at least not yet. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. Learn how your comment data is processed. Skip to content. This is an awesome release, guys! My congratulations to the team!
This is what makes the difference in Mint. Nonetheless I have one more small annoying issue, which was already present in Mint 14, and is still there in Olivia MATE x64, and which makes me curse a little bit every day. Please help! Kirk M 76 — Thank you for your suggestions, i may try it next week. I was used to always use Unetbootin, until i discovered USB Image Writer when Arch required it to create its installation medium, then i saw no reason to look back.
I just have one question to the new MDM: there I found this new airplane-button. What is this for?? Is this an app or what is that?? I am really interested in knowing more about that….
It looks hugely impressive. When all this goodness is based on I am looking forward to test the final release…. The card itself however runs fine after I install nvidia-current via software manager. OK, I am now on your final release of LinuxMint 15 and have to say: thanks a lot for this release and I like it.
Then one thing for the future wishlist would be a new default-Wallpaper. The current one is not as nice anymore as your other Wallpapers are, which can be selected after installation. This breaks the nice stylish style of LinuxMint. So my very personal opinion would be, that we need another nice fresh default-Wallpaper, which is shown during installation and at the first boot after installation.
What is this?? Is this a new feature and how does it have to be used?? In Nemo 1. Is there any way to fix this? Re software packages, after a reboot the software sources in Synaptic were fully populated — phew! This was a big frustration for me before so I am loving this! Congrats to the Mint team and everyone involved for delivering — yet again — the best Linux OS out there today. Nothing touches it. Olivia is perfect. I deleted the contents of.
Opening the folder with Nemo the icons were regenerated without error and the processor usage dropped to very low level. I have done a clean reinstall of the MATE 15 final with results similar to the problematic install I reported upthread. The install itself was per normal. After the reboot, I installed the updates, which, again, included kernel 3. When I attempted to reboot after the updates and the new kernel were installed, the screen cleared to black with the LM logo in the center, as previously.
And, again, several minutes of apparent disk activity followed with no reboot. At that point, I hit the power switch. The machine came back up normally, without the kernel panic I had seen earlier. I then installed a mainline kernel 3. The subsequent reboot occurred routinely: no stuck CPU messages.
For me, it worked fine right from the very start of the installer. I also do not use any proxy or soemthing like that. Then I could confirm this with Nautilus, but not with nemo. Nemo has a bit of a strange behaviour the last time. But I think, this is caused by the Ubuntu-developers. They cut down nautilus like nothing. Also badly needed functions are killed down. The easy reason for this problem is, that Cinnamon does no longer use nautilus as its file-manager but nemo.
Nemo really need very few CPU-usage. Nautilus in opposite wastes CPU like a fool and also my machine gets pretty warm then although the latest nvidia-driver ist installed. In nemo, the mint-developers have kept everything, what is now lost in nautilus. And these regressions were also the cause, why nautilus has been forked to what we now see as nemo. Here, I can only say a big thanks to Clem and his team of the mint-developers. Well the RC worked fine for me and just wiped the drive and got the newest release.
So far its perfect! Thanks for such a great release! Thanks for your fix. I do not really use Thunderbird at the time, because Evolution-Mail is better. Then as next point, I would preferr, if the chat-program empathy instead of Pidgin could be pre-installed in the default-installation or as alternative, I also like Gajim.
When LM15 stable was released, I decided to do a fresh install of Windows7 and a re-arranging of the booting process. This way, the Windows booting process is not interfered with, which should make installing a new LM distribution in the future less problematic. Not unimportant, now that Mint is only updated for 8 months.
The only thing that has changed is that I now opt for Mint in a Windows opening screen, rather than the Grub menu.
Mint booted up fine initially, showing its familiar logo in the process. The installing of the recommended Nvidia driver changed this dramatically however. Everything works fine again now. One other thing that works perfectly well with the Nouveau driver is the log-out log-in feature. Logging out with the Nividia driver would get me a black screen and no option to log back in again.
Strange, but while playing around with the rc release, I had the Cinnamon Weather app working perfectly. Now, I have the same problem others reported earlier. All I can get is the weather for Insbruck. I have exactly same problem and with same driver Nvidia driver On Mint 14 it was easy to add additional language and add switcher to panel on Mint 15 I spend 1 hour and still can not found how to do that. I hope the Mint team can fix those problems!
Thank s any way for great distro all rest stuff work great! System just fly! Thank you for a great release. Though there are till two problems: both act the same.
Thank you Mint team for so quack fixing!!! Thanks again! Right-click this document and check, if it is executable. If not, then check this little box and make it executable. Then the settings-dialog will open and there in the first white box type in the WOEID of your town and in the second white box, type in the name of your town. Select the option, that the conditions are shown in the panel. Then the wheather-applet will show the conditions of yout town.
Never successful installing bit mate using mint4win. This is a clean install of Olivia RC and taking all of the updates. Did you download the final Version of LinuxMint 15, which arrived today?? The RC is outdated now and the final Version is here. Because with the final Version of LinuxMint 15, I cannot confirm any such behaviour of nemo and also not during RC-state and also not during LinuxMint That is I think what the problem is.
In the meantime you can also change your location by using the console:. Replace the last string with the id you get from e. Thanks, that worked. Pity though that the location code list is so out dated. Would have thought a city with a population of Thank you for this!
I had a big problem that cause me to loose some hours. Should I report it here? Tried to load. Went fine until boot would not progress and halted with out sync screen. Dont know the problem, have been using Seem both cinnamon 15 and mate 15 have issues on my system. Loaded to a clean SSD Amd system with same rsults from both. Thanks for all the hard work, Clem and crew! Cinnamon is really shaping up—I can hardly wait to download and try. Me encanta Linux y lo vengo Usando por years pero ahora mi sistema esta muy pobre,por favor saquen algo bueno y si lo quieren hacer update no lo malogren se los agradeceria mucho.
I have a suggestion for you that has nothing to do with function in Cinnamon. I will phrase it in the form of a question—kind of. Is there anyway that you could unify a particular window border theme that blends perfectly with the current Cinnamon themes? Of course, this may be a part of your plan already.
But things are looking so sweet—that is accept for the said old news window borders. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated. And great job. The first reboot after the install brought up a grub menu with no timeout countdown and a dead keyboard. I hit the power button and rebooted successfully. This time, I installed the Nvidia driver before installing the updates. There was a kernel panic at the reboot after that install: Signal 15, GPF. I powered off and on. The machine booted into the grub menu again, but the keyboard was alive and I booted successfully.
Then, I installled the updates, which again included a new kernel. Kernel panic trying to reboot after that. Power off and on and it booted into a black screen, no logo, and a dead keyboard, and no disk light activity. Power off and on and it boots successfully. I saw no kernel panics with the RC. Have worked my way through the RC. Only remaining issue was that the Synaptics touchpad does not work at all. Powered the laptop up tonight. Login, woops no desktop background.
Task bar is there, can get the menu up and run applications, aplets work. Right click on desktop, nothing happens. Clicked on the file manager icon on the taskbar. Upgraded to Mint 15 this evening.. Everything seems to run! LM15 installer crashed. Runs fine from usb stick. That means Nvidia or AMD are forbidden to provide proper drivers for their own product, thus making them not to perform at full capabilites and always being crappy.
That means that the Nvidia or AMD graphics are at best of a second sort. Moreover it questions the legality of their dirvers, because for example on laptops with Windows- AMD provides unassigned Intel graphics drivers inside subfolder of subfolder of their own driver.
They make the vendors like HP and DELL to do that, thus making the drivers extreme old and buggy for the laptops these vendors sell. Why would they? The product is out and sold.
The money is in the bank account. Who cares! It got to the point that even Windows users know now what graphic power management and sync to vblank is. It was unheard of a few years back. Another thing is that Nvidia is not intersted in doing the drivers for any platform. First its the same stroy as with AMD: making drivers is a cost. Once GPU is out, nobody cares. Drivers do not generate sales. But reality is different. And they get the money elsewhere.
For example Nivia recently build a complete new system from scratch that is selling very well. It functions as a game streaming service so people can play games on thin clients and everything is rendered on that system.
If they make tons of money by selling content royalties, like 3 dollars of every game title that is rendered on that machines they will make amazing money. So why would they need any drivers for some shitty laptops? Why would they hire bunch of programmers, when they hire two and they make the drivers for their system. And once the hardware is out it does not generate any revenue stream. So why generate additional post sale cost? No f… way. So will Linux based distros receive working graphic drvers?
Who cares about sync to vblank for Linux and now even for Windows!!! Keep dreaming about waylands, mirrs or desktop acceleration. Linux is a post sale cost. There has never been a proper support, there always was video and desktop tearing for nvidia, complete lack of working drivers for AMD and shit for Intel working 3 times slower than on Windows and without OpenCL, wich renders programms like GIMP 2.
Keep dreaming. Is there any chance Cinammon will ever have a Gnome Shell style hotcorner overlay? Using the new Olivia bit Cinnamon, and I like the changes. Anyone else encounter this, or know how to fix it?
The bad ones right now is as follows:. Mint and Cinnamon are coming along nicely. Just wish it was stable and reliable enough to use every day for work. Multiarch support is not active on Linux Mint 15 Cinnamon Edition. To enable this run following code on terminal. My Nvidia device is still listed but no sound on Skype or any player.
These were much nicer than the current ones. Mint 15 Mate bit, with two different usb keys, created with Usb image writer. Mint 15 gives me the same error as post when i try to install, as soon as i try to create a user. Dear Clem, Tried Cinnamon version of Olivia. Well-chosen backgrounds, nice interface and smooth experience. You could have added a few more themes, desklets and applets.
On the negative side, accessing LAN shares is a head ache. It takes too much time as much as 10 minutes or more to initially access a LAN share on Windows network. Cinnamon edition of Nadia had this problem, but not the Mate edition. Please try to resolve this bug and suggest solution. You can also browse network sites via the left hand pane of your file manager nemo and just click on the network folder at the bottom. But hopefully this will help.
I really want to have corrected this errors. So do not pay attention to my ignorance. I use mint in virtualbox 4. But when I put a network proxy with nm-applet it does nothing or it seems. Also, I had another issue with the desklet launcher, when I create a new launcher no icon is added…. Fault with software manager hanging on the splash screen that was there in the RC is still there. Dear PB, Thank you for your quick response. But the problem is different and much more serious.
It is not that I am unable to access LAN shares. I can access them provided, I have tons of patience and time to keep on trying when it throws up errors. As I mentioned it takes nearly minutes to access a shared folder for initial authentication by the LAN server as compared to about normal one minute or less.
If I ask my computer to remember the authentication details username, domain and password for LAN for the share, the subsequent access is quite fast. This may not be serious problem if you have only a couple of computers on your LAN. But my network has more than computers and each one may have tens of shared folders which I may want to access at some time or the other.
Even if I ask my computer to remember authentication details of all the shared folders I wish to access, I am back to square one, if some one just changes the sharename of the folder on his computer. Great release. The idea is to give artists the ability to define transparent textures which look a bit like sculpted glass. Best wishes on resolving the problem.
I have to copy the doc to my desktop, make changes, and then copy it back up to the the drive. Not a terrible workaround, but something is failing. Perhaps related to file ownership. Some other users have complained about not being able to stream video from similar remote locations.
Clem and team, thanks for all your hard work. Cinnamon keeps getting cleaner and cleaner. I really appreciate your continued efforts on this project. This is why Linux Mint continues to be my Linux of choice. I love that you have separated drivers into their own tool. This makes it really easy to find now. I had to search online for quite some time to find it hidden in software sources.
I recently tried both Arch and Saybayon Linux, and this experience really helped me to appreciate how easy you have made the Linux experience. Upgraded from Linux Mint 14 and everything works perfectly! Thanks a lot for this wounderful upgrade. I love all off the many improvements! Looking for XFCE. I still fell lxde was lighter than XFCE in this machine. People would appreciate if there is any lxde version available from Linux Mint or its community. Thanks linuxlover. Got usual message box but finally Firefox did open and said some add-ons were incompatible and disabled them.
I got most of my "sources. There you should see your firefox running! This box pops up, when you start to run a second instance of Firefox, although Firefox is already running. How I found that out? I just wanted to install a new login-sound I downloaded from the linuxmint-art. No pasword-prompt appeared as it should normally be. Then I checked in my Terminal, that the sudo-command works.
There it works. For Updates I have to enter my password and there it works as expected. My user is added to that group. And a further bug I saw is MDM crashing at boot. It tried six times to laod MDM, but it failed. Only a hard-reset could get it work. This also needs to be fixed. I think it would be a good idea to have a Virtual Box appliance download available, particularly for the non-LTS releases. Runs out of the box with all FN-Keys available.
Even when i tried the hints in the release notes I just get an entry for my bootable USB Stick and create manual efibootmgr fails. Yes, it does run s…. OTOH xfce4 4. I work with non-profit organizations that recycle older computers, and there are plenty of good ones without PAE enabled processors. IMO if your system has enough memory, there is almost no reason Today to stick with a 32 bit host kernel.
Keep your stable old Win2K and XP systems in virtual machines This is the file, which gives us the necessary information.
Could you please send a link with this document?? Press the default-icon shown and select the icon, you want to have for it. This will boot your system with the backlight on so you can see the screen. Thanks for that Falko. The subsequent post 'easier installation' is totally superfluous as Linux Mint uses the Synaptic Package Manager to install software whereby multiple packages can be installed simultaneously. For updates the OS has its own Update Manager that automatically shows when updates are necessary and with one click executes all updates and upgrades necessary.
