linux

Background: I’m not “new” to linux, but this is my first year daily driving it. I have been running Mint on my main PC for a little over a year, and I love it....

I recently got a couple of POS pc’s (Point of sale) you know the ones that are all in one with a base to sit on a counter. The thing is they’re very old non branded devices, even the label says 2GB DDR2 while it’s actually 4GB DDR3....

I need to reinstall Linux Mint but MOK Management is preventing me from booting into the live CD. I tried looking for a solution online but (assuming I did everything correctly) I couldn’t find anything that actually worked for me. How do I properly disable it?...

I’m looking for a new work laptop and I’d like to jump to Linux at the same time. I was hoping to get some input from here because I’m still undecided!...
