  • Mint, for me, was freezing up if something like Gimp was running in the background and it goes to sleep. Waking up, it appeared completely locked.

    My system has 16 GB of memory, so I increased the swap from the default 2 GB page file to 16. It’s been a few weeks, but I haven’t seen a lockup.

    My theory was that it was suffering trying to restore memory from hibernation. The only thing helping me was having a SSD, which would eventually catch up and bring me to a properly running state in a few minutes. If it was a spinning player it would never wake up.





  • It’s up to the hardware vendor to code the lights. You should see if you can find who makes the chip and get an idea of what they mean.

    If you get both lights with no cable connected at both ends, you have a hardware issue.

    Both lights could mean full speed, or half duplex, or a wiring error.

    No blink blinky means no activity usually

    What is the device? If it’s a computer, what os? What motherboard or specific model?

    Do other devices work on that same cable? What is the other end plugged in to?

    I am under the impression that Roblox is not compatible with Linux due to anti cheat. I went Linux mint and installed the Linux versions of the top have stores. Steam provides compatibility for many games due to the Steam deck. No issues noted for Minecraft. Haven’t played Fortnite on Linux, but it’s available from the Epic launcher.
