Indeed they do. Which is why I prefer to tell a new Linux user that it is not an inevitability that he's going to have catastrophic problems.

Vice, if you want any help let me know.

If its nvidia or intel I'm fairly good at configs and stuff, not much help on amd stuff.

As far as forums go, mint is ok, but askubuntu is better imo. mint is too small and mint is based on ubuntu anyway. as far as thunar and xfce goes, theyre a very nice bunch.

if you want to monitor temps, install lm-sensors. I use sensorplugin on my panel (bottom tool bar) to constantly show me cpu temp and gpu temp.

also, if you just like to tinker, you can setup conky (a HUD display that will show you a host of nfo all the time).

as for photoshop, you can always VM it if you just have to. You'll find gimp 2.9 has advanced a whole lot. add g'mic to it. (i think base install comes with gimp 2.8x, i always go up to 2.9)
Screensaver done. As for the heat issue I was talking about. It's not the screen, it's the vent coming out the side of my laptop. It's actually not an issue. I was curious on how much less heat is pouring out that vent compared to W7. I wanted to do a "Pepsi Challenge".

While Timeshift (or any other backup program) is certainly a good idea, I will note that I have used Linux for years, and I have never had a borked system. Currently my oldest installation (Debian, the one I'm typing this on) was installed in 2013 on a brand-spanking-new computer and has been continuously updated/upgraded with zero problems.

My second-oldest install is from 2014, still running strong, and that one is Arch, the scary distribution that everyone (except the users ) claims will be in an almost constant state of breakage. It's been stable as a rock.

Arch, Debian, Slackware, Ubuntu, PCLinuxOS, Manjaro, Gentoo - I've run all of these for extended periods of time (well, Gentoo was only a few months) with no problems.

It's always good to be prepared for the worst, but destroying your system is not an inevitability.

EDIT - I am a firm believer that in most cases, if a problem arises for whatever reason - due to a glitch in an update or due to a user mistake - it is recoverable with a bit of research and/or asking for assistance on the user forums. Rather than immediately restore from backup, the user can attempt a repair and treat it as a learning experience.

.
Now boys, don't fight over the Linux noob. Backing up is always a good idea, whether it's porn or an OS.

As I said before, this laptop won't be doing any "Heavy lifting". I doubt I'll feel the need to fuck with the graphics card, etc. If SSD's and RAM would get a lot cheaper, I'd be down to fuck with that. They're not so I won't. This PC is essentially going to become a glorified "e-machine". However, it's a cool experiment to step outside Windows.

I gotta say, with all the Distros, flavors, etc....Linux feels like this...

Joking aside, one serious question: Can I do away with needing a password for Mint? It's kind of annoying. I live alone. I won't take this PC anywhere. Hence the incessant need for a password is only proving to be useless and "Getting on my tits" (as the Brits say).

Thanks for all the help guys.

the login password yes, you can disable it, the uprights terminal command "sudo" no.

"sudo" means "super user do" a special rights command that lets you act as root (god) for that one command. thats a good thing.

be sure to add yourself to the usergroups for pulseaudio, video, hdd, etc. youre going to find users actually mean something in linux as opposed to windows or mac.

You (your account) are user id 1000.

just a tip youll learn about in a while. Do visit the link to first things todo I posted before. fossbyte is a good place. stands for freeopensources

do check driver manager to make sure your graphics and chipset are actually using the correct drivers. if it says "nouveau" thats bad for any gaming and some video. also, check your system logs and look for errors.

cya, and good luck

try to compile a program from source. and promise yourself you will not give up. google your way through ever problems that occure. maybe a little heavy start. but give it a try. theres also a lot of linux channels on irc, where you can ask for help

try to compile this:
Code:
