Re: Linux mint wifi works but not as a hotspot
As mentioned in some other tickets, like https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?p=2346297#p2346297, some had to downgrade wpasupplicant. I did that in Mint 21 and did not check if something changed in 21.2. Some folks solved with drivers, so always search in forum before posting Note that for us...

Re: Is different workspace resolutions possible?
Cinnamon here points to github, then there feature requests point to another address. strange.

Re: How to run older GTK app
This is not a problem of LibreOffice but of missing old GTK2 environment, looks like all is GTK3 now.
XFCE will also not work because XFCE4 is GTK3.

Re: Hot to run older GTK app
In my case, I tested some bugs in Libreoffice, I cannot run old versions in GTK3 and bugs don't appear in gen.
'=gtk' should be valid option, per what I read.
Thank you for explanation about MATE, I missed that.
But general question remains, how to run older GTK app in GTK rendering.

Re: It's a pity Icecat browser is not in the repository
Not correct. Installing like that invokes the error:
iceweasel:
Depends: libhunspell-1.3-0 (>=1.3.3) but 1.3.2-6ubuntu2 is to be installed
Depends: libstdc++6 (>=4.9) but 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04 is to be installed
So, I agree Mint should have IceWeasel alongside Firefox.

I would say the same problem remains with the current Mint 17.1. and X2GO 4.0.3.2. It's important because there's general problem with RDP to Cinnamon.
