Any linux users here?
I use Linux Mint and I just upgraded to Helena and I have some weird bugs with it:
Sound doesn't work, Text is huge, slow startup, etc
I have tried some of the solutions online but no luck, anyone know of ant solutions or where I can find a comprehensive database of known problems and solutions?

I use various flavors of linux on virtual machin on windows. I think linux mint is not good for desktop solutions, why not try ubuntu linux. You can get some help about it in forum : http://www.codesynapse.net
Ask your questions over there. You'll get replies.

I use linux mint cause it usually runs faster on my old laptop than Ubuntu, thats why i wanted some help with that.

I use Mandriva Linux 2009.1, It is very good.

Ubuntu is not bad, but not for me.

Peace.

As the buddy upstairs said, Linux Mint is not very popular. If you use a release which has few user, you are hard to get enough help. So I recommend that you could use Ubuntu instead of Mint, which has a lot of users in the world and you can get much more help from www.ubuntu.org

I use Sabayon Linux at the moment and I think I'm going to stay with it although I have used others in the past.
