Linux Mint 19.3 is the latest minor release of Linux Mint 19. The release available in the flavors Cinnamon, Mate and Xfce as usually, introduces several changes and new features, brings refinements, and bug fixes among other things.

In this release, Linux Mint 19.3 cinnamon edition features the latest cinnamon desktop 4.4 which received various improvements as well, such as the System Reports tools, which now comes with a new icon in the system tray area to inform users that they need to review certain things, along with automatic detection of potential issues in their computers for missing drivers or codecs, and the Language settings tool, which now lets users set a preferred time format.

Among the changes that will be implemented in the upcoming Linux Mint 19.3 operating system, Clement Lefebvre reveals improved support for HiDPI/4K displays in both the Cinnamon and MATE editions by making various icons and images less blurry, including flags in Language settings, Software Sources, and Cinnamon screensaver, as well as theme preview images in Cinnamon theme settings.

The system tray icons will also be revamped as part of he upcoming Linux Mint 19.3 operating system to show crisp icons on HiDPI displays, along with standalone applets for the Cinnamon, MATE, and Xfce editions. Also improved is the Language Settings panel, which will let users set their time format for the respective locale and region. The new version of Linux mint 19.3 is a long term support release that will be supported until 2023.

代號“Tricia”，Linux Mint 19.3將在聖誕節前和大家見面

目前除了名稱之外，雖然並沒有透露詳細信息，不過Linux Mint的開發者還是分享了一些細節內容。例如，新版本將會有Cinnamon, Mate和Xfce這三個桌面環境，而且依然會提供32位版本鏡像。

Linux Mint 19.3將會包含一些重大改變，例如同時放棄了VLC和Xplayer，使用了名為Celluloid的多媒體播放器。筆記應用程序Tomboy將由更現代的Gnote代替。 Xfce用戶將很高興看到他們的桌面環境已更新為4.14（如下所示），而所有用戶都將升級到Linux內核5.0和Xorg 1.20。

Linux Mint 19.3“ Tricia”何時發布？確切的日期是未知的，但是開發人員保證會在聖誕節之前和大家見面。

Make El Capitan Bootable Usb

Bootable USB Installers for OS X Mavericks, Yosemite, El Capitan, and Sierra

As usual, Apple no longer supply a bootable USB Flash Drive with latest OS X releases - including the new OS X 10.11 El Capitan. Using this tutorial you will.

Banglazed said: For simplicity, download the El Capitan, rename flash drive to ElCapInstaller, enter that above into terminal and boom done. Don’t need to format the USB since the command used in the terminal will format and create the bootable USB.

How to make a bootable USB drive on Linux Mint (19.3) to allow you to install Mac OS X El Capitan on a MacBook with broken or corrupted recovery mode. I was recently given a 2011 MacBook Pro that had been “well-loved” and was therefore a mess of missing applications, ghost files and generally slow-as-hell.

First, review this introductory article: Create a bootable installer for macOS. Second, see this How To outline for creating a bootable El Capitan installer. Simply replace the Terminal command with the one from the preceding article by copying it into the Terminal window. You will need an 8GB or larger USB flash drive that has been partitioned and formatted for use with OS X.

Drive Partition and Format

Open Disk Utility in the Utilities' folder.

After Disk Utility loads select the drive (out-dented entry with the mfg.'s ID and size) from the side list.

Click on the Erase tab in the Disk Utility toolbar. Name the drive, 'MyVolume'. <---- IMPORTANT!

In the drop down panel set the partition scheme to GUID. Set the Format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.)

Click on the Apply button and wait for the Done button to activate. When it does click on it.

Quit Disk Utility.

Create Installer

Open the Terminal in the Utilities' folder. Choose the appropriate command line (in red) depending upon what OS X installer you want. Paste that entire command line from below at the Terminal's prompt:

Command for macOS High Sierra:

How To Make A Bootable Usb Drive

sudo /Applications/Install macOS High Sierra.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/MyVolume --applicationpath /Applications/Install macOS High Sierra.app

Make El Capitan Bootable Usb On Big Sur

Command for macOS Sierra:

sudo /Applications/Install macOS Sierra.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/MyVolume --applicationpath /Applications/Install macOS Sierra.app

Command for El Capitan:

sudo /Applications/Install OS X El Capitan.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/MyVolume --applicationpath /Applications/Install OS X El Capitan.app

Create El Capitan Bootable Usb From Dmg File

Command for Yosemite:

sudo /Applications/Install OS X Yosemite.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/MyVolume --applicationpath /Applications/Install OS X Yosemite.app

Command for Mavericks:

sudo /Applications/Install OS X Mavericks.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/MyVolume --applicationpath /Applications/Install OS X Mavericks.app

Press RETURN. You will be asked for your admin password. It will not echo to the Terminal window. Then press RETURN again. Wait for the return of the Terminal prompt signifying the process has completed. It takes quite some time to finish. Be patient.

06.06.20

We went to the Oracle VirtualBox site and downloaded and installed VirtualBox 6.0. Oracle VM VirtualBox is free, open source virtual machine software maintained by Oracle Corp.

It was originally an Innotek product before Innotek was acquired by Sun Microsystems in 2008. Sun Microsystems was in turn acquired by Oracle in 2010. The alternative software to Oracle VM VirtualBox is VMware workstation.

I have been using Oracle VM VirtualBox since 2016 and have learnt a lot of information about how it works and how to install various operating systems.

Virtualbox can run Linux guest operating systems and Microsoft Windows guest operating systems. It can emulate both 64-bit operating systems and 32-bit operating systems.

Each operating system you add to VirtualBox is treated as a Guest. The guest operating system is running in its own virtual environment, which emulates a real machine on your PC. This means that anything you do in it does not affect your PC. The guest runs in a console:

About the VBox console: The VirtualBox console displays the active virtual machine. It shows the virtual guest operating system activity icons in the status bar. The console can be re-sized, minimised and forced closed from the title bar. It is not recommended to force close an active guest operating system as this acts like switching off mains power. Your guest operating system should be shut down cleanly. You can select different viewing modes in the view list or use the shortcut keys assigned with them. These mode include full screen mode, seamless mode and scaled mode. VirtualBox website link: https://www.virtualbox.org/ VirtualBox wiki link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VirtualBox  

After setting it up, I went to find some Linux-based operating systems to download. Each download is a disc image file with the file extension .iso. 

I chose:

Ubuntu MATE 20.04 LTS (Long Term Support)

This operating system uses the MATE Desktop Environment, which is the continuation of the former GNOME 2 Desktop. I like this desktop environment because it has a very configurable interface.

Ubuntu MATE: https://ubuntu-mate.org/

Wiki link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_MATE

Linux Mint Cinnamon 19.3 Tricia (based on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS)

This operating system uses the Cinnamon Desktop Environment which is based on GNOME 3. Cinnamon uses MGSE (Mint Gnome Shell Extensions), which re-creates a more traditional desktop linux experience whilst also looking modern. 

I like this desktop environment because it looks modern and feels familiar to those who come from Windows.

Linux Mint: https://www.linuxmint.com/

Wiki link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Mint

Linux Mint MATE 19.3 Tricia (based on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS)

Linux Mint edition featuring the MATE Desktop Environment. I like this desktop environment because like Ubuntu MATE, it is very configurable. It also features Linux Mints system updating utility.

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

This version of Ubuntu is the main version by Canonical Ltd. This operating system uses the GNOME 3 Desktop Environment.

Ubuntu came out in 2004 and used GNOME 2 as it’s desktop environment until 2011, when it changed to the now discontinued Unity Desktop. In 2017, Canonical announced it would return to GNOME. I like this desktop environment as unlike the GNOME 3 default interface, Ubuntu uses its own orange style theme and adds a Unity like dock on the left of the screen.

Ubuntu: https://ubuntu.com/

Wiki link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu

Xubuntu 20.04 LTS

This operating system uses the XFCE Desktop Environment which aims to be lightweight on system resources and has a really configurable user interface. Xfce once stood for XForms Common Environment. The menu system is called  the Whisker Menu. I like this desktop environment because like MATE it is very configurable.

The Ubuntu 20.04 Long Term Release is code named: Focal Fossa. All Ubuntu based distros use .deb (Debian Package Manager) for software installation.

Xubuntu: https://xubuntu.org/

Wiki link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xfce

Fedora Workstation 32

Fedora is a Linux distribution developed by the community-supported Fedora Project which is sponsored primarily by Red Hat, a subsidiary of IBM, with additional support from other companies. Fedora is used by Linus Torvalds who is the creator of the Linux kernel.

Fedora is the upstream source of the commercial Red Hat Enterprise Linux distribution.

Since the release of Fedora 30, five different editions are currently available: Workstation, focused on the personal computer, Server for servers, CoreOS, focused on cloud computing, Silverblue, focused on an immutable desktop specialized to container-based workflows and IoT, focused on IoT devices.

I like this desktop environment because it looks fresh and modern. This operating system features the latest version of the GNOME Desktop Environment. 

The screenshot of Fedora shows the ‘Activities’ dial screen which gives you a Visual overview of your GNOME Desktop. 

With the Activities screen, you can see and control currently opened app windows, all installed applications, search system and switch desktop work spaces.

Fedora: https://getfedora.org/

Wiki link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fedora_(operating_system)

CentOS 8.1

CentOS (Community Enterprise Operating System) is a Linux distribution that provides a free, community-supported computing platform functionally compatible with its upstream source operating system, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). It is maintained by The CentOS Project (affiliated with Red Hat). Both operating systems use GNOME 3 as their default desktop environment.

It is basically a free version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, with the Red Hat branding removed and update servers pointing away from Red Hat servers.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux is a commercial focused Linux distro.

All Red Hat Linux based distros such as RHEL, CentOS and Fedora use .rpm (Red Hat Package Manager) for software installation.

CentOS and Red Hat Enterprise Linux can be installed on servers, workstations and desktops. Both are very popular on mission critical commercial server systems as it is designed to be flexible and very stable.

I thought this Linux distro is interesting because unlike the Ubuntu based distros above, installation of CentOS is more involved, you set up software sources, installed software, desktop and operating system components.

CentOS runs on a lot of web servers.

CentOS: https://www.centos.org/

RHEL:

https://www.redhat.com/en/technologies/linux-platforms/enterprise-linux

CentOS Wiki link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CentOS

RHEL Wiki link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux

VirtualBox requires the installation of Guest Additions, which adds extra features to the virtual machine, such as the ability to scale the resolution of the guest operating system, better 3D acceleration and the ability to move files between the Guest and Host machine.

To install Guest Additions on a Linux guest, you will need to use the terminal. installation of this is different on .deb and .rpm builds of Linux.

Opensource Word Processor Review.

Between Libreoffice and WPS, which one is better ? Depends on how you define “better”. Interface wise, WPS looks much more MsOffice-alike, some say it looks better. But, the downside is, it performs worse. I had just opened a document with about 300 pages and the WPS just went stuck. On the other hand, using Libreoffice, it works like a charm. Scrolling is really smooth too.

Libreoffice is a well-maintained software and have been circulating for a long time. Well done!

*I’m using the latest version of both software on Linux Mint 19.3, Processor AMD A6, RAM 4 GB
