@Gizmo: Here's what happened to me a while ago:[ATTACH] I renamed it and the problem went away. Is your keyring directory empty? I'll bet it is.
Chris, what are the physical within-the-bezel dimensions for 3840x2160? Is that a 21:9 ratio? I've been looking at a 2560x1080 for this tiling WM....
If you pull down "help / about", you'll see it is named 'Nemo'. It's your GUI file manager. It works exactly the same as your Windows file manager...
However, the box in the pictures runs Xfce, and it's pretty much Gnome-free, so I don't have those options possible without a lot of packages I don't...
George: Alt+F2 should bring up a dialog box, type nemo Check for the directories in the filemanager 'Nemo' that comes up. Also, if one or both of...
Daniel, you have to tell George how to take screenshots, methinks. I know you're good at that :)
George, I'm not sure what file manager you have in Mint; it might be nautilus or nemo. See if one of those is in your programs menu, and use that if...
lolz, beat me to it.
George, the result you are giving us is a bit suspect. don't forget the tilde symbols, and the '2' after 'gnome'. Check by using your filemanager...
Your system might not ask for a password because you selected 'remember for this session' or something to that effect. If a user doesn't make that...
He's getting selection boxes from apps asking him for a keyring password. This happened to me before in Gentoo, and the solution was to delete the...
Just hang in there, if he has keyring files we just delete/rename them. It's unnecessary to have them as the sole user, anyhow. Then we reboot him...
Be careful; we're not talking about his login password here, Brian. What you posted is related to that. We have to know if he has set a keyring...
George can't do anything in /etc/passwd if he's not root. Anyhow, that isn't the right solution. I need to know if he has those directories I asked...
This is all related to a password to unlock the gnome keyring, which isn't really necessary if you're the sole user. Somehow, it appears that you've...
George, I'd still like to know what you were trying to run with 'sudo'. Is it a secret? Next, please show us the output of this: ls...
I think that is SOP in all Debian-type distros. Maybe one of the boys running Mint can check? Bedtime for me, I'll check back in the morning.
I'm thinking a keyring problem, maybe a master pw has been set on top of the regular one.
Cloasters's sudo problem moved to Crashed Forum: https://www.gamersonlinux.com/forum/threads/no-login-possible-after-sudo-in-mint.1712/
Gotta find the problem first. He knows it worked before, and I have never seen a password mysteriously become unusable. He's apparently in the sudo...
