This is all so useful! One of the things I hate the most about windows is all the bloat that accumulates overtime and makes is less and less optimized. I'll be experimenting with Linux Mint next week. Your videos are helping a lot. Thanks!
This video was extremely useful for a noob like me. I paused it many times, taking detailed notes in Libre Office's word processor, and trying out each command as you listed them off. I watched the video on my main rig, a Windows 11 based Core i7, which left my Linux based laptop free to seamlessly try out each command and keep notes as I went along. I plan to phase out Windows, especially on my Windows 10 based systems, since those machines don't support Windows 11, and I want to be able to still use them after Windows stops supporting Windows 10. I also heard that Microsoft is considering a "subscription model" for Windows 12, and I really don't like that idea.
Hi, I'm glad this video was helpful. Thanks for your feedback. I agree with you; it's a good plan to start getting used to Linux. You can do pretty much everything like on Windows, except it's free and less annoying with updates. And yes, I don't like the idea of the subscription model for Windows either.
As you are doing Linux Mint, I have joined your channel I now use LMDE as Windows does not like my old computer any more, and I started Windows in DOS 6 many years ago but now its time to go and Mint was waiting for me, so at the age of 78 I have moved, looking forward to any help, Thanks Bob in the UK
Hi, thanks for your feedback! I hope you Linux Mint and it will be a smooth transition. I'll try to make more helpful Linux Mint videos in the future. Take care!
USB dongle conflicts with onboard WIFI. Onboard WIFI is toggled off but still running, channels are displayed. Dongle keeps toggling off. Also, cannot access dongle's other settings. There's no BIOS option for disabling onboard WIFI. Are there apps for this, or are additional files needed? Windows handles this MUCH better.
My USB WiFi dongle crawls at a maximum of 200kbits/sec Device-2: Ralink RT2870/RT3070 Wireless Adapter type: USB driver: rt2800usb bus-ID: 1-4:33 chip-ID: 148f:3070 I diable the built-in WiFi adapter at the command prompt with 'sudo modprobe -r rtw89_8852be' Any ideas? It works fine in Windows. My laptop has Linux and Windows.
@PulsarTECH great video, I have noticed that the terminal in the Kali Distros bolds the text when it detects it's a command how do you enable this in a linux mint distro?
In Kali Linux, the terminal often uses a feature called "syntax highlighting" in the shell to make commands and other elements stand out. This can be achieved in Linux Mint (or any other Linux distribution) by configuring the shell environment and the terminal emulator to enable similar features. This is a topic for a whole another video. Try to search for some guides how to do it.
My usb wifi dongle appears in 'system information' Device-2: Ralink RT2870/RT3070 Wireless Adapter type: USB driver: rt2800usb bus-ID: 1-4:33 chip-ID: 148f:3070 Linux apparently has the driver for it. Can you tell me how to access it and turn it on? In Windows it can be accessed from Device Manager. A video on using these wifi dongles in Linux may be worth producing. Linux has drivers for some chipsets, but not all. Mine is from ALFA.
Hi, in Linux Mint, you can manage your network interfaces, including your USB Wi-Fi dongle, using the Network Manager and command-line tools. You can access the Network Manager settings through the system tray in the taskbar. Look for the network icon, typically located in the system tray on the bottom right corner of the screen. Right-click on the network icon and select "Network Settings" or a similar option. Within the Network Settings, you should see options to enable or disable Wi-Fi. Ensure that Wi-Fi is enabled. Open a terminal and use the following command to list your network interfaces: ifconfig Look for a wireless interface, likely named something like wlan0 or wlp2s0. If it's not listed, the driver might not be loaded or the device might be disabled. Hope it will help! Thanks for the idea for the video.

Glad to hear that. Thanks for your feedback!
I'm going to watch the video one more time later to try some of your tips😊
Great job 👍, well done ✅
Awesome! Thank you!
I'm new to Linux and this guide will improve my terminal skills. Much appreciated.
Great to hear!
Perfect, thank you very much! This will facilitate make Linux Mint experience.❤
You're welcome!
I know there are probably many more terminal commands but thanks for sharing these ones as they will be helpful for new users!
You bet!
You are the best instructor on TH-cam. I have subscribed.
Welcome aboard! Thanks for you feedback.
This is the most clear and comprehensive tutorials for the Linux Mint terminal commands. Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
Now I feel myself much more comfortable using Linux terminal with these new learned commands.
That's the goal to learn more!
Linux Mint terminal is quite an interesting tool but definitely requires explanation from someone with experience. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
sudo apt update/upgrade are my favorite commands!
It is one of the most popular commands that's why it is on the first place!
#1 sudo apt update
#2 sudo apt upgrade
#3 sudo apt install
#4 sudo apt remove
#5 sudo apt purge
#6 sudo apt autoremove
#7 sudo apt search
#8 sudo apt listed --installed
#9 sudo apt clean

What's the best and most straightforward way to install programs that are not found in the "Software Manager" library, PT?
