great instructions for myself, a new Linux user. I had to pause the video many times and worked on my other mac while watching. Very straight forward with no "FLUFF". Thank you for giving me the tools to have my Linux mint working well right from the start.
Many people think about changing going to Linux and hunt videos on it. They see a lot of open the terminal and . . . . While I"m not a keyboard warrior by any means terminal doesn't scare or bother me. But it does many. I really like that you show what can be done without the terminal. Most Windows people don't realize there is a lot of stuff you can do quicker and more efficiently with the command prompt than through the GUI but are happy with just the GUI. You are showing the for the majority of things, Linux is the same, just better.
Many people can't type.. MANY. I myself use a media computer in the living room and just use a wireless mouse from the couch, if I must, I use a virtual kbd... I've been a Win user from day one for over 30 yrs, not gonna start terminal shit any time soon...
@@titantitan2851 Can't type due to a physical situation or can't touch type, there is a difference. Many can't touch type but can hunt an peck very fast. My father, who was a railroad agent used just his index and middle fingers when typing up train orders and using the teletype machine could do better than 20 wpm. As for myself I touch type at about 60 wpm, but when I program or use the terminal I hunt and peck. However the bit about being scared of using the terminal doesn't come from typing ability, it comes for all the cryptic commands. I've been saying that fear keeps many away from Linux because they think they have too use them. They now longer do anymore than they have to with windows. FWIW, there are a few things in windows that you must do from the command line or power shell. For quick example, a couple months ago I had a corrupt partition the graphical disk tool couldn't fix. Had to use dskpart. FWIW, I've used windows since the 3.0 days. Although I preferred OS/2 I had no problem staying with windows until they started all this "helpful" stuff pushing there "services"
Actually that's a false claim you cannot do it faster trough terminal that's why we invented the GUI... Double clicking and installing drivers is much faster than even copy paste all the commands and tinkering around to make it work. That's why windows is so popular because stuff just works and its much faster to setup.
@@sale666 Some things are faster using a GUI, like moving a few files from one folder to another. On the other hand it is faster to change file and folder permissions from the terminal, if you already know what to type. It also helps if you can type quickly and know a few shortcut keys. I don't think GUI's weren't developed primarily to do things quicker, they were to make the learning curve much smaller. To make it possible for people to do complex operations without becoming gurus. There was no reason to have memorize a bunch of cryptic commands and switches. For the most part I'll use a GUI since I'm not a keyboard warrior. The point of my comment is that the terminal scares a lot of people. If they watch videos to decide if they want to try Linux and instead of clicking they guy is typing and bunch of what looks like a foreign language they are scared away.
I installed Mint 22 yesterday and continuing today, fresh. I enjoy your vids and learn things. I knew most of your tips, but there were some new. I had trouble installing Redshift. It screwed up and I had to restart after deleting as best I could. Damn. I like Redshift. Mint 22 version seems great. I'd be careful with that clean up utility at the end of your video; unless someone knows what they are doing they can screw up the system badly. Always enjoy your videos and on Mint which I really only use
Yup, redshift being dropped is a bummer. I really need it. But we can use qredshift. it works fine. Yeah you're right about the bleachbit part. That's why I stress in the video that, after an update, the computer ABSOLUTELY NEEDS be restarted before running bleachbit. And if you see warnings on any ticks, just click on cancel and you should be good. Thanks for pointing it out though David. :)
I've been looking at moving to Linux after I retire and this helps a lot. I understand the installation process, but wanted something that described what to do *_after_* you make the transition. This was perfect. Thanks!
I love when you cover stuff like this. Please, in future, timestamp the items where we can jump stuff that doesn't matter to us. Again, thank you for showing us what you have knowledge about. Also, please, put the list into your Description where we can scan it and know what we want to look at. Because I don't care about stuff like Batteries, Theming, etc.
I also want to thank this person for his ability to share - with one small request - Just slow down in your speech and procedures as you are showing whats going on , Other than that - Excellent video 👍👍👏
Started messing around with Mint in VirtualBox to start practicing for when i finally switch over when Windows 10 dies next year. This video was AWESOME, thanks a lot for these tips
i just switch from win11 two days ago, it's actually a bit troublesome because of the apps sometimes, different flatpack, dpkg... not eveything is present, sometimes you need some help but eventually there is always a solution, i used chat gpt to help me, it helps very well with everysteps if i'm stuck on something. The great things are the applets, extension and deskplets, very fast to add and configure. System is lighter than windows, running my local ai is faster, before i had trouble with some of my printers with windows and my other pc, now my networks works perfectly didn't have to configure anything. I'm happy i made the change. i still use windows for gaming but that's all
I know you said it, and also seem to love Timeshift. But I just want to emphasize this. If you backup your latest working installation, with all the extra changes you made and extra apps installed, with Timeshift, you can do the following. If you install a new disk or perhaps damage your system, boot from the original out-of-the-box Linux Mint install medium (e.g. ISO on a stick), and run Timeshift. Show Timeshift where the backup is, and it will allow you to restore to a new blank partition. You don't have to backup to the same identical partition. The new partition must just be big enough. You will get your original system back. It will even modify your boot menu. You don't have to do a fresh install, and redo everything. So, whenever you have a great working system, with some new apps or system modifications, perhaps every week or so, back it up with Timeshift. This way you customize your own Linux Mint exactly like you want it, and you can do a fresh install from Timeshift whenever you want to.
Linux Mint is awesome Just like this video. I know Linux Mint as a average person but I will be buying your course $17 is well worth it seeing the time you put in to making the course and a good refresher for me. If anyone is unsure there is a free view of the course and I think after taking a look for those who want to learn Linux this is invaluable for the price. Thank you for the course and hope many more are to come.
I am flabbergasted! I just changed this week to Linux Mint. I was pretty scared since the last time I look at Linux was 15 years ago at least . Wow!!!❤🎉
Fantastic. I really appreciate the time, effort and knowledge to put this together. I have been in and out of Linux Mint for years and there is simply no need to keep going back to Windows nowadays. It does everything I need and more. Big up to you sir.
Great video buddy ❤️🔥. This is what I am looking for 💯. I ditched windows 7 and installed linux recently. My experience was really amazing as I like to explore things instead of sticking into something for a long time. As I am using linux mint mate DE on my old specs laptop (i5 2nd gen, 8gb ram, 1gb graphics card) I liked it alot but I not completely satisfied as there are lots of features and tweaks that are missing in mate version. What will you advice me - staying on current desktop environment or switching to cinnamon (more feature rich) or xfce?
If you are really liking the customize-ability of the Cinnamon desktop. I would say just do a fresh installation of Linux Mint Cinnamon edition. Cinnamon is the flagship desktop of LinuxMint. So if you want to do everything Cinnamon can do, just switch over.
Some good info here. Thank you. I will say one thing. In the Steam settings on my older laptop, I needed to step BACK one level on the "Steam Play" section. My client shows also "Run other titles with:" The latest "Proton Experimental" was being used by default. It acted strangely, particularly with sounds in games. So, I stepped my back to just 9.0. This seemed to clear up that and another issue of one game, anyway. This MAY help others too. Latest isn't always the best.
i’ll try the 9.0 when i did experimental in nobara it stopped steam from opening haven’t gonna back to fool around with it but definitely don’t need it happening on mint

Hibernation mode is a thing that is not always made available, something that is very good to have on a laptop, but can be nice to have on the stationary computer as well.
Love your videos , been gaming on Linux mint for years , one thing you could mention is heroic launcher as it allows Epic games , GOG games and amazon games from one launcher and you can also integrate them into steam so you are using one launcher to launch them.
I also like to add the settings for the DNS can also be applied to the Ethernet section if you don't want or cannot use wireless - I tried it with mine Lenovo and it seemed to work.
Good news, good news... the Burn My Windows extension for Cinnamon by Klangman is available to download now. He has also done the Desktop Cube and Magic Lamp effects extensions too.
This was one off the best video's i have seen on customizing it with some cool tweaks.I just had to tweak TH-cam to slow you down a bit but awesome video thanks a lot from a new subscriber PS My favorite but I had a little hard time following was the faster wifi tweaks and I love Linuxmint cinnamon bye bye microsoft
20:50. food for thought...Night Light is a program that is being developed by the Mint team and is already available in 22.1 beta. It is meant to be a replacement for redshift. I'm unsure how well it works yet thought.
great tips learned a lot of new ones! applied this to my Manjaro Cinnamon and the hardware acceleration to Google Chrome and they mostly transferred, ty

How about the handling of battery on laptops? Is there a way of stop it from constantly have the charger push the battery? Power savings is good for a laptop, but better battery management is needed as well.
I had Zorin os on my PC but switched to cinnamon mint.I was looking for Windows replacement but Zorin os wasn't good.I'm just an average user but cinnamon mint is better at least for me 😊
amazing video really appreciate it definitely going to subscribe would love a video just on best themes also should i apply all these methods to windows 11? maybe a video dedication to approving that would be great! being that i dual boot
Please i need help and nobody will help me. I can't get the sound working on my Panasonic toughbook CF-19ZA813DM laptop, i got the sound working one time but not over Bluetooth and as soon as I rebooted the laptop all sound stopped working. Please don't tell me to check the forums , I already have and no help
With local mirrors you don't always get the latest versions of for instance Firefox. I used local mirror (which is Dutch because I live in the Netherlands) on MX Linux, but I didn't get the latest Fx. I changed it to Princeton which is in America and then I got the latest Fx.
GREAT VIDEO... THANK YOU-- QUESTION-- is there any way to add AUTO-TILING to mint yet? Or the best way to get as close to auto- tiling as possible? I like the way POP os does it- but realize this is NOT gnome (thank God- since I hate gnome).. but love the pop os tiling... so do you have suggestions to get as close to this as possible on MINT??
[Newer to LInux, so, hopefully, you don't mind me asking a question ...] Okay, on the File Browser (say Nautilus or some other FB) on the Sidebar (hope that's right word), I see that there are directory shortcut links. Now, I would want to change those easily, but I see you have to run some stuff from the command line. However, I saw some Linux TH-camr show one File Browser that had a pop-up where you could easily edit those sidebar shortcuts. Do you know the name of the file browser that you can install which has easily manipulation of those. Because I don't give a crap about Documents, Pictures, Videos, etc., because all of those I will never use. But, I would have jumps to my Server's main directory, my basic Home directory, etc. So, I wish that all of the File Browsers had a pop-up or panel that would appear where you could add & remove them visually without using CLI scripts. So, could you make a video on that, or explain it here.
Hi honestly I truly enjoyed your video but I didn't see the link to your mastery class kindly direct,and one reconfigureing the internet connection my ipv6 ,when I typed in the Google DNS it blanked out the apply button I could apply the changes on the ipv6,is there another way to do it,thank will appreciate your response
Everybody should know these simple steps. Each of us have different preferences. That's why, people should know all this. So you can change Linux to your liking's. Linux is actually prefect to me after tweaking it to my liking's.
Hi, congrats for your very explain and complete video, but i want to know about internet speed with optimized DNS, where you find the ipv4 and ipv6 address or segments you show in the unsaved doc.?🙄
I can't use Mint because there is unresolved issue with video stuttering on web browsers. Despite vaapi functioning on paper Mint distro can't deliver smooth HW video playback. They don't have answers on Mint forum.
GREAT !! Thanks But I have one more dream .... A transparent Top Bar in Cinnamon with Time and Calendar in the middle of that top bar. And then a dock like MacOS Leopard on the bottom. Can you show us ??
I installed a week ago and my touchpad buttons were working... nowadays I reinstalled linux mint and then touchpad buttons were working but after update manager updates done it isnt working touchpad works but right click and left click buttons are not working My laptop is lenovo E460 :( pls help I am new
It will be possible to upgrade from the Update Manager once the LM team has tested out the upgrade tool. You could install Mint 22 alongside your current version and move over your stuff and then later use Disks (or Gparted) to remove the old version and add the unallocated space from that removal to your new install partition. Still, something can go wrong. Backup your files and do a fresh install, that's what I did.
I currently use Windows, but I want to switch to Linux because Windows 11 is not meeting my needs (shit 💩). Please recommend a Linux OS that is fast and looks good? I primarily do coding and browsing, not gaming. My laptop has a GPU, so I'd like to use it to its full potential.
Mint for when you want less time tinkering and Manjaro for if you don't mind tinkering. Both are perfectly fine options, but Mint for a first introduction to learning linux is honestly the best.
I have a question: does Linux Mint in this version finally have a decent index-based desktop search? This has been the reason for me to uninstall it a couple of years ago. I would give it another shot if this is resolved.
Install both on one physical drive is possible. Just make two partitions, one for Windows and the other for Mint. Install Windows first, then install Mint. Linux Mint will recognize that Windows is already there on your drive and will install alongside it. Mint will add Windows to the Grub bootloader where you can choose which one to boot up to. Pardon my broken English.
Cool just installed this last week. Windows and edge is making me sick so I'm trying Mint and Vivaldi now, so far so good, but I need to search a lot for simple things :-)
QRedShift doesn't work for me... Not sure if it's because I use a Display Port instead of HDMI, but it still should work. DAMN, I really need RedShift back!!! >=(
Dat kunnen jullie niet voorstellen. Het gebrabbel maakt jullie bedoelingen zinloos. Als nieuwen Linux gebruiker zijn jullie belangrijk voor mij om Linux te blijven te gebruiken. Maar doe er AUB iets aan om dat mogelijk te makken. Wees duidelijk eenvoudig en objectief en bijzonder vriendelijk. Op heden is het een boeltje.
mint is nice, yes, i use it, an old version of xfce which gives me few errors in the log file and the icons in the task bar are the correct size, along with themes copied from other distros live isos it looks really nice. since 20.3 mint have made changes that are not always welcome by users, such as forced dark theme on media apps, but not all apps have the option to change to light. v21 on wards has so much bloatware in icons and themes it's not funny, and in v22 some of them cannot be removed due to errors. not to mention some usual apps missing such as qt5 settings and log viewer. in my view mint has gone downhill over the last year due to poor testing and bad choices, but that's my view. cheerio
Ubuntu has most of this allready set and if not can go into settings change a few things ..only way to figure out linux I'd down load it what I did and wow .it's like a rooted android for desktop 🎉🎉🎉
You say it is easy to game on Linux Mint, but it just doesn't work for me. I tried it many times with different Linux distributions and versions. Up until Mint 22 none of my games started at all. Now most still don't start, a couple of them do, but run with single digit fps. Changing the Proton version changes nothing, trying to use Wine doesn't change anything. All of my games remain unplayable. All the other stuff you can do is pretty neat, but none of it really matters, if I can't run my games! And dualboot is a waste of space, when I have to install Windows anyway and it can also do anything I need it to do.
great instructions for myself, a new Linux user. I had to pause the video many times and worked on my other mac while watching. Very straight forward with no "FLUFF". Thank you for giving me the tools to have my Linux mint working well right from the start.

Okay, on the File Browser (say Nautilus or some other FB) on the Sidebar (hope that's right word), I see that there are directory shortcut links. Now, I would want to change those easily, but I see you have to run some stuff from the command line. However, I saw some Linux TH-camr show one File Browser that had a pop-up where you could easily edit those sidebar shortcuts. Do you know the name of the file browser that you can install which has easily manipulation of those. Because I don't give a crap about Documents, Pictures, Videos, etc., because all of those I will never use. But, I would have jumps to my Server's main directory, my basic Home directory, etc. So, I wish that all of the File Browsers had a pop-up or panel that would appear where you could add & remove them visually without using CLI scripts. So, could you make a video on that, or explain it here.
I have 32 Gb of RAM, so preload is wonderful to me, thanks
Glad you found it useful. 🤟
Hi honestly I truly enjoyed your video but I didn't see the link to your mastery class kindly direct,and one reconfigureing the internet connection my ipv6 ,when I typed in the Google DNS it blanked out the apply button I could apply the changes on the ipv6,is there another way to do it,thank will appreciate your response
Everybody should know these simple steps. Each of us have different preferences. That's why, people should know all this. So you can change Linux to your liking's. Linux is actually prefect to me after tweaking it to my liking's.
Hi, congrats for your very explain and complete video, but i want to know about internet speed with optimized DNS, where you find the ipv4 and ipv6 address or segments you show in the unsaved doc.?🙄
Thank you Linux Tex!
Thank you kindly for this video. Timestamps could be a bit helpful if you have time (no pun intended).
Many thanks!
Thank you sincerely 🎉
Very useful. Thanks.
I can't use Mint because there is unresolved issue with video stuttering on web browsers. Despite vaapi functioning on paper Mint distro can't deliver smooth HW video playback. They don't have answers on Mint forum.
Will all these changes work for LMDE?
Nice video... thanks.
Can you do one for LM Xfce?
Somehow I feel safer on LMDE6
As do I.
Good stuff..
But the first thing I would do is change out that hideous icon theme they sadly are still using!
GREAT !! Thanks
But I have one more dream ....
A transparent Top Bar in Cinnamon with Time and Calendar in the middle of that top bar.
And then a dock like MacOS Leopard on the bottom.
Can you show us ??
I installed a week ago and my touchpad buttons were working... nowadays I reinstalled linux mint and then touchpad buttons were working but after update manager updates done it isnt working touchpad works but right click and left click buttons are not working

Librewolf. More secure by default, lighter running. Based on Firefox. I've never had any issues with it.
is using mirrors secure? can't the package be tampered with?
always possible, then maybe just use the main server
this video really help me out cuz i just install linux for my frist time thak you bro. Im having some problems with preload how can i dele it?
Err .... sudo apt purge preload ?
Firefox better than Brave for Linux ?
Is this true for if Mint is installed in a virtualbox
Pls I need help, for the DNS server solution it is different on XFCE. I don’t know where to put on ipv4 and ipv6 the numbers you showed.
Right-click the connection icon on the lower right corner and choose edit connection.
I just installed LMDE on a oldish surface laptop. Is there any reason why I'm not getting driver manager?
I don't think the driver manager is present in LMDE.
Kindly give me the exact method to activate hibernation in Linux mint.
I have used suse for 20 years and thought I'd try something new on this new computer, but orcaslicer don't work. so back to suse, lol :D
Great video! Please explain how to upgrade to Mint 22 ? Do I need to format my drive or can I upgrade from 21.3 and keep my files and documents?
It will be possible to upgrade from the Update Manager once the LM team has tested out the upgrade tool.
You could install Mint 22 alongside your current version and move over your stuff and then later use Disks (or Gparted) to remove the old version and add the unallocated space from that removal to your new install partition.
Still, something can go wrong. Backup your files and do a fresh install, that's what I did.
I don't use firefox. So, you have any suggestions for Brave?
Just goto the software manager and search for Brave. The search box is in the upper left corner.
preload can't install on linux mint 22
I currently use Windows, but I want to switch to Linux because Windows 11 is not meeting my needs (shit 💩). Please recommend a Linux OS that is fast and looks good? I primarily do coding and browsing, not gaming. My laptop has a GPU, so I'd like to use it to its full potential.
Of course Linux Mint!
Mint for when you want less time tinkering and Manjaro for if you don't mind tinkering. Both are perfectly fine options, but Mint for a first introduction to learning linux is honestly the best.
my scroll speed is much higher in linux mint, how to tackle this, not preset in settings, its been a headache from weeks, plz help with this
check mouse settings
I have a question: does Linux Mint in this version finally have a decent index-based desktop search?
This has been the reason for me to uninstall it a couple of years ago. I would give it another shot if this is resolved.
You can use Ulauncher or Albert
how to make dualboot windows plus lmde. two separate physical drives? 1 is windows 2 is lmde? I'm looking for a tutorial.
Install both on one physical drive is possible. Just make two partitions, one for Windows and the other for Mint. Install Windows first, then install Mint. Linux Mint will recognize that Windows is already there on your drive and will install alongside it. Mint will add Windows to the Grub bootloader where you can choose which one to boot up to. Pardon my broken English.
@@TheAdrifebrianto thank you for your comment. I want two separate drives. efi for Windows and efi for linux.
good job
thanks
Cool just installed this last week. Windows and edge is making me sick so I'm trying Mint and Vivaldi now, so far so good, but I need to search a lot for simple things :-)
QRedShift doesn't work for me... Not sure if it's because I use a Display Port instead of HDMI, but it still should work. DAMN, I really need RedShift back!!! >=(
Dat kunnen jullie niet voorstellen. Het gebrabbel maakt jullie bedoelingen zinloos. Als nieuwen Linux gebruiker zijn jullie belangrijk voor mij om Linux te blijven te gebruiken. Maar doe er AUB iets aan om dat mogelijk te makken. Wees duidelijk eenvoudig en objectief en bijzonder vriendelijk. Op heden is het een boeltje.
mint is nice, yes, i use it, an old version of xfce which gives me few errors in the log file and the icons in the task bar are the correct size, along with themes copied from other distros live isos it looks really nice. since 20.3 mint have made changes that are not always welcome by users, such as forced dark theme on media apps, but not all apps have the option to change to light. v21 on wards has so much bloatware in icons and themes it's not funny, and in v22 some of them cannot be removed due to errors. not to mention some usual apps missing such as qt5 settings and log viewer. in my view mint has gone downhill over the last year due to poor testing and bad choices, but that's my view. cheerio
Ubuntu has most of this allready set and if not can go into settings change a few things ..only way to figure out linux I'd down load it what I did and wow .it's like a rooted android for desktop 🎉🎉🎉
I can't find brightness controler.
updating linux kernal could freeze the system.
That preload command didn't work for me
You say it is easy to game on Linux Mint, but it just doesn't work for me. I tried it many times with different Linux distributions and versions. Up until Mint 22 none of my games started at all. Now most still don't start, a couple of them do, but run with single digit fps. Changing the Proton version changes nothing, trying to use Wine doesn't change anything. All of my games remain unplayable. All the other stuff you can do is pretty neat, but none of it really matters, if I can't run my games! And dualboot is a waste of space, when I have to install Windows anyway and it can also do anything I need it to do.
thanks alot
Great video. No way to chrome and in the last two years no to firefox.
What about a message " you don't have permission to install updates" ?
You should be a used car salesman or a realestate agent.
19:35 so that's why you use a one-character password :P
