User guide linux mint

User guide linux mint

I’m a Dutch translator for Linux Mint on Launchpad. Where can I translate the official user guide? Not on Launchpad, it seems.

Thanks for this but it is out of date and confusing referring to things incorrectly for Mint 17.3.
eg page 21, refers to the places menu and shows a pic of it.
When you choose the ‘Places’ menu it has the following 5 Places; Documents, Music, Pictures, Videos, Downloads, however the guide refers to the ‘Computer’ place which is NOT in the Places menu!
It then immediatley talks about partitions and mounting them etc in a way that only users accustomed to using Linux would undeerstand, yet this is supposed to be a beginners guide but is talking about advanced ideas in the middle of describing how to choose a simple menu!
It then talks about the ‘Home’ place as one of the Menu buttons you will use most, again there is NO ‘Home’ menu button in the section it is describing!
So it has referred to a ‘Computer’ and a ‘Home’ place in a menu that has the following 5 Places; Documents, Music, Pictures, Videos, Downloads! Very confusing.
It then talks about the ‘System’ menu, but where is it, how do you access it?
etc etc.

Thanks for this excellent guide!

This is an excellent guide. Thanks!

Hi, looking for some good tuto’.
Since this tutorial is 5 years old, is it still ok to use ?
Thanks 🙂

This looks to be just what I need. Thank you very much.

A must read for all new minters like myself.

You guide is great but I’m now looking for something the next step— beginners using terminal commands. I came across something once and haven’t seen it again that was easy to follow. Maybe you have an idea what I’m looking for now.

I have the following notes on it:

1) It would be nice to mention the exact version of described software (and maybe even the version of the document itself) on the first page .

2) Installation of Linux Mint (page 7). Newbies does not know what liveDVD means, so I would change the following sentence:

The liveDVD is then bootable and provides a fully-functional operating system which you can try without affecting your PC. —>
This DVD is then bootable and provides a fully-functional operating system which you can run on your PC. It is a so called liveDVD which can be used for trial without affecting your disk.

Please also change somewhat bellow:
If you like what you see when running the liveDVD you can decide to install the system
to your hard drive. —>
If you like what you see when running this liveDVD you can decide to install the system
to your hard drive from a desktop icon.

(Earlier it was not clear for me, how to install a liveDVD and thought I will need a different ISO for installation!)

3) The “Introduction to the Desktop” chapter describes how to “Getting to know the menu”, but there is neither “System menu” (page 22), “Package Manager button” (page 24) nor “Applications menu” (page 27) on the installed software.

4) On page 43-44 it is explained how to copy and paste just with selecting the text and pasting it with a middle mouse click using the “mouse buffer”. It doesn’t work for me in the way you described with LibreOffice.
The sentence „Now click on some other part of the document to move the cursor there . ” is incorrect. You shouldn’t click, just move the cursor (without clicking) above the new place and than paste it with the middle mouse click.

(some of these notes may apply for other editions of User manual)

Good for a very basic starting point.

A good basic guide but not totally relavent to my version, a shame.

I have installed LinuxMint 16 Xfce 64 bit on my AMD sempron 64-bit processor desktop machine, which it runs only flakily, despite only having this installation of Linux using its 3GB of memory and 500 GB hard drive. The Guide (which is for version 15, but that’s all we English-speakers are allowed) offers no help with the following:
Please can you tell me how I can exit from the displayimage-melting screen saver. I’ve tried no end of keystroke combinations. My current best-bet is to press the big red «Reset» hardware interrupt button on the case of my desktop PC for an instant reboot — luckily my machine has got one! This is not a particularly productivity-enhancing option and courts software and data corruption.

Found this user guide two days after installing Linux Mint 14 alongside Windows 7 and 8. I had no problems at all with the installation. I just wish that I’ve read this earlier. Making my way around the system was all good but I’m still a noob when it comes to coding though.

You are a Very Linux Devoloper. Thanks for Your best work. Thanks Clement .

Linux Mint 14, so far so good. I am a noob to linux and i dont know my way around this type of software so forgive me for making stupid questions. lol

An easy to follow documentation, thank you very much.

Excellent documentation. Concise, thorough without being overly complicated by minutiae and easy-to-understand.
Another win for Mint.

instale linux mint en mi compu y me trone xp, parece que no perdi mucho ya que linux se mira exelente, lo unico que no puedo es instalar mi impresora l355, favor de mandarme los lineamentos para realizarlo,

Good as the guide is, when a newbie like me has rashly decided to remove Microsoft Windows and start again, what I really needed was a step by step guide with screenshots to get me off the ground. Despite grubbing around websites and youtube, getting simple but high quality information proved difficult.

Very useful and helpful! Many thanks for this User Guide.
