I have a usb hard drive connected my Raspberry Pi running Raspian. It works fine when I have a KVM hooked up to it and access it directly. However, it's my intention to run it headless and access the drive from my Linux Mint laptop across the room over the local network. Every time I search Google o...

Nobody knows how to do this, really?

Still looking for an answer.

My screen goes blank but not completely into power saving mode as I can still see a small amount of light coming from the screen when the room is dark, like all night long. I would like to configure the Pi to turn off the monitor after 30 minutes but I don't know where to look for the settings. Any ...

In case my explanation isn't clear enough, here's a post I found from another user using Fedora and KDE. Exact same behavior. Mouse click on inactive window turns into a drag event I have searched high and low for a way to fix this problem, but haven't found anything or don't exactly know the search...

I tried to grab a screenshot but it doesn't show the little drag icon so here's something I found on an image search. This shows up often with a single click of an inactive window. https://images.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fcdn4.iconfinder.com%2Fdata%2Ficons%2Fcc_mono_icon_set%2Fblacks%2F48x4...

Why does the mouse start dragging a window around the screen when I click and release on that window's toolbar to switch from one app to another? It's very frustrating because I have my windows exactly where I want them and then suddenly with a single click, it's moving around and I have to drag it ...

Thanks everyone for all of your suggestions. I was trying to install unetbootin yesterday but there are issues with add-apt-repository on the latest Raspbian. I had to go through this when installing Plex Media Server with adding lines to the repository list. This time I couldn't figure out what the...

I don't think that's possible with Mint Linux. I still need a Bootable USB Creator that runs on Linux. Any recommendations?

You could install and use Rufus. It has a visual interface and is pretty easy to use for ISO images (which seems to be your case) https://rufus.akeo.ie/ . You'll find more instructions on how to use it on their website. For IMG formats you don't need an app in Linux. Just use the dd command: sudo d...

Is there a Raspbian app I can use to create a Linux Live Bootable USB thumbdrive? I've already downloaded the ISO to an external hard drive connected to the Pi. Now I just need to write it to the thumbdrive in a way that it will be bootable. My windows machine took a dump last week and I've been usi...
