    Linux Mint 17.3 Cinnamon is recommending lvl5 updates

    Hi lorena, Can you plz list the specific AMD A series apu that you have? I ask because the A8 comes with a built-in, on-board HD 6550D, That's why it's considered a APU and not a CPU. APU means GPU & CPU built into one chip. Seems as if the HD 6550D destroys the gt 610, Question is how well...

    Forum/Site Suggestions

    Hi. I'm not trying to be a bother, But I have a few things I wanted to suggest. I have worked with sites before and currently still do. And I have to say the restrictions here are to tough for new members. I know spam is hard to combat. And maybe these restrictions are in place because of...

    Installing a desktop environment just for gaming.

    Openbox seems to be working great. Aside from the extra resources gained. The window manager boots up really fast compared to waiting for all of cinnamon to load. Gets you into the games faster. I think with my next install I'm going to try mint xfce. I grabbed a screen cap of playonlinux...

    STALKER: Clear Sky Guide

    Yeah I'm new to playonlinux and wine, So by official i mean playonlinux installers that are inside the program. There is a lot of other GOG installers. The installer hangs when a gray blank window pops up with "ok" "cancel" "abort" "restart or retry" its cut off.

    STALKER: Clear Sky Guide

    Thank you, I was able to get my GOG version of clear sky to install with this guide. I was not able to install my GOG version of COP. I wonder why there are no official installers for GOG stalker games.
