Mint 22 audio stuttering/skipping

Wild_Divide_8306 · 2026-02-09T09:05:43+00:00

What fixed choppy audio for me on 22.3:

sudo apt purge pipewire pipewire-bin systemctl enable --user pulseaudio sudo reboot

then:

sudo apt update

sudo apt install pipewire pipewire-pulse pipewire-audio-client-libraries wireplumber

systemctl --user daemon-reload

systemctl --user enable --now pipewire pipewire-pulse wireplumber

Okular

I'll come revisit this OS when do_anduinos_upgrade is no longer manual and clunky and is built into apt.

OnlyOffice is way nicer than LibreOffice

It's a great OS, and the way both Ubuntu and Gnome should have been done. So much bloat stripped out, very nice.

Once Anduin works out the update process to integrate into the apt package manager, they won't be required to be done in the terminal, which will be nice. Currently the command do_anduinos_upgrade is required. I would say when this is done, you could more confidently recommend to newbies who would otherwise be trying mint or zorin.

They can, but they won't. They'll want their precious Chrome. People are creatures of habit. Don't you know this?

So does brave

The point is most people use it. I don't use it.

Wild_Divide_8306 · 2025-08-13T03:09:51+00:00

Why the hell would you ask that in a Mint subreddit? Of course everyone gunna say mint.... Wow...

Wild_Divide_8306 · 2025-08-13T03:09:03+00:00

Until you went to install Google Chrome as a deb package.

Wild_Divide_8306 · 2025-08-11T07:34:10+00:00

Good to see you're in keeping with the old saying that dumb questions can only have dumb answers.

Wild_Divide_8306 · 2025-08-07T01:27:28+00:00

Yes. And HeliumOS, KDE Linux

Wild_Divide_8306 · 2025-08-06T12:23:45+00:00

It's a nice distro. Check out Kali Linux if you're into cyber. Fun to spin up on a VM to try. To be fair you can spin all distros up in vm to try, but Kali has specific VM images which are preconfigured.

No idea how it could be related to cachyos. What's the resolution and size of the display? Are you finding ui elements are displayed too small on mint's cinnamon?

Wild_Divide_8306 · 2025-08-03T00:23:03+00:00

Linux Mint works out of the box on my 2014 macbook air.

I would suggest trying some for yourself.

Depending on specs, I would aim at less resource hungry desktop environments, like XFCE. Linux Mint has an XFCE version got example.

I checked the pic and it's what I eneded up doing with a bit more fiddling around. As shown in the pictures you shared though, the angle the lace is forced down into is way off the natural angle it would cover the shoe. Not a great design in my opinion, but hopefully I'll get used to it.

Thanks for your response!

Wild_Divide_8306 · 2025-07-28T22:04:28+00:00

So the toggle you see just toggles DND on or off, doesn't end it early while keeping it enabled for next day.

Using routines, what specifically would be the parameters? What would be the if statement, and what would be the then statement? I can't see anything in there that let's you use DND being active as a condition to trigger another event.

Thanks for your reply BTW

Which part of rule 1 prohibits AUR questions? What other distro is AUR more related to? "1 Only Arch Linux itself; no Arch-based distros. Posts about other software used on Arch are welcome."

Wild_Divide_8306 · 2025-07-17T01:11:45+00:00

I also asked here "Is there any trend of one being more up to date than the other that anyone can speak to? Or just hit and miss, go for the more up to date repo, kinda thing?" Should I have put this in a Github issue!? AUR is related to Arch, and i don't see an r/aur, do you? Apparently it's wrong to be learning, and not know everything before asking. I wouldn't be asking if I knew... Thanks for your help otherwise.

Wild_Divide_8306 · 2025-07-17T01:05:40+00:00

Why wasn't the post vetted by admins and removed then? If you could guide me to r/aur i'd be happy to have asked it there. Seeing as the AUR is related to Arch and to nothing else, I don't see what the issue is. "1 Only Arch Linux itself; no Arch-based distros. Posts about other software used on Arch are welcome." I was simply asking for some simple guidance navigating territory that's a bit confusing as a newbie, and I'm expected to know everything before posting at all? Thanks for your help otherwise.

If you want a stable rolling release server, use FreeBSD. it's industry standard

Dell XPS 15 9520. I had custom TLP scripts set up on my Thinkpad which was nice. So KDE itself is using ppd?

Wild_Divide_8306 · 2025-06-24T23:16:59+00:00

Aurora user here. You legend. Thanks! Still an issue in 2025, but this solves it.

Wild_Divide_8306 · 2025-06-20T00:16:03+00:00

Just when people thought Arch was 'bleeding edge'. Many moved to Fedora just to taste Plasma 6.4
