Hello,
Approximately five days ago I have clean installed Linux Mint 18 Sarah, Cinnamon, on the Samsung SSD shown in my sig_rig, and I run it on this system. It runs together with Windows 10 Pro, installed on my other SSD, and I use F11 (boot menu) to load Mint, whenever I want to. Otherwise my computer boots directly into Windows.
The installation went very well and I have started using it without any problems, especially after applying the majority of the suggestions from this guide.
I have a couple of questions, though:
1) Each time I shutdown or restart my computer a black screen appears which shows the following:
Linux Mint 18 Sarah me-desktop tty1
me-login:
me is the user name I use.
This screen also appears each time I boot into Mint but, whereas during booting it lasts for a fraction of a second, when I shutdown or restart it displays for approx. one (1) second and then my PC continues.
- Is there any way to stop this?
2) In Windows I am always using HWiNFO64 which, according to my personal opinion, is the best monitoring tool available! I am always running an overclocked system so I need to monitor voltages, temperatures and other values. Is there a similar monitoring tool on Mint? I have found and installed Psensor but it does not monitor Voltages, it does not monitor my Corsair's H110 fan speeds, and it does not even remember the position on my second monitor that I place it! It always open in the middle of my primary monitor. I want another monitoring tool so which is the best monitoring tool on Linux Mint?
3) When I shutdown my computer using the power button on my chassis, a pop-up window comes up asking me if I want to Suspend, Restart or Shut down. Is there any way to prevent this? In Windows when I press the button my system shuts down right away (no window), in less than two (2) seconds.
Thank you!
