Q. I have linux mint 4. I need to wipe my computer off of junk and reinstall. I also want to upgrade my hardrive and reinstall linux mint 7, and the latest ubuntu. I want to get the junk off manually, search and destroy, and then uninstall. I need that harddrive for my other computer, can you help me out? Linunx mint is the way to go by the way.
A. If you are looking to delete and format the Drive with Linux Mint 4.0 on it I recommend you use Gnome Partition Editor (GParted). For this operation you can run off any Ubuntu or Mint LiveCD as Gnome Partition Editor is included

A. Are you referring to the Synaptic Package Manager? Everything is downloaded into /var/cache/apt or /var/cache/apt/archives
If it is from Firefox or Chrome/Chromium, by default it will be in you download folder ~/Downolads (Note: the Tilde means /home/user or is your [the active users] home folder)

How to get pictures to post on Craigslist on Linux Mint?
Q. I'm posting an ad on Craigslist, and my dad downloaded Linux Mint (Dumbest program ever!), and I don't know how to get pictures off of the SD Card that I have plugged in. How do I retrieve the pictures off of the SD card on Linux Mint?
Thank you!
Thank you!
A. Whichever photo manager is installed on your version of Mint (most likely F-Spot, but possibly Shotwell) should be set to open once a drive with photo media is detected. Your father may not have set that up when he installed Mint, so maybe that's why it didn't launch.
You'll have to manually launch the photo manager, and after that it's simple to import the files to the "Photos" folder in Nautilus.
