HP LaserJet 5000 on parallel port – Device URI: parallel:/dev/lp0 Buffer overflow error when printing. hpcups 3.16.3. Works in Mint 13 and 15, but not in 17.x/18.
Am testing on a lenovo w530. Bluetooth applet cant seem to pick any device. It will just display searching for devices and either provide an empty list or list devices i cannot setup. On 17.3 it worked like a charm
3c:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros QCA6174 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 32), "wireless unavailable"
Fatal resolution problem with all 16.04 derivatives https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/292402
networking to a shared epson x322 printer, it is no longer necessary to install epsons driver, I found out it wont install so used ‘printer-driver-escpr’ in synaptic.
Lenovo Y700 no sound
banshee: will not import media form folders causing hard locks (disable podcast plugin to fix this)
artwork:
Tray icons are black with mint-y themes.
Mint-Y themes Shade option is unavailable
Black Themed Bar: Icons not vertically centered.
Mint-Y needs a tiny window border or drop shadow. It can be very difficult to distinguish where one window ends and another begins.
login screen, no user selected, username don't show up very well on some of the backgrounds

changing desktop font size segfaults nemo
Touch screen clicks are not working in the icon and compact view section of Nemo, everywhere else seems fine.
Context menu “Open with>other application…” displays duplicate applications.
I can disable mobile broadband using the switch in network preferences but it does have any effect. Next time I open up network preferences it is enabled again. I guess this could be a upstream problem though.

When connecting with PEAP authentication, the network manager applet just gets stuck instead of prompting for credentials.
cinnamon panel unresponsive when using nvidia 304 drivers?
Microphone level meter has color reverse. Shows red when low level and green when picking at high level. This is with build in microphone on Lenovo Carbon X1 4th generation 2016.

network-manager | nm-applet:
After I resume from suspend NetworkManager seems to work fine, Wifi connection is maintained, but nm-applet shows Wi-Fi Networks and other things grayed out. Running ‘pkill nm-applet’ and then ‘nm-applet’ fixes this.
Can't join WPA network (password not being passed), 3 people have this problem
after updates nm-applet shows ethernet icon instead of wifi for connections?
nm connecting via WPA doesn't connect (no password passed).. using network connections to save the password -> works. Tested with MATE edition on a Lenovo Yoga 500.
Another NetworkManager bug. Just tried to run the mint 18 MATE live on an old pc in my home and it wouldn’t recognize my Wi-Fi at all. It just looked as if I didn’t have Wi-Fi. Killing and restarting nm-applet didn’t help in this case, so the bug must be deeper. Sadly, this is a bug I’ve read about in Ubuntu MATE 16.04 so again, this might be a bug from upstream. For comparison, I had no problem of this sort when running mint cinnamon 18 live on this pc, and it is running mint Xfce (first 17.2, upgraded to 17.3) for a while and never had this problem.
mintmenu:
[Fixed in Git] use custom color should be disabled by default (it makes mintmenu look really bad with mint-y-dark)
transparent only one after reboot (first click on menu). Next click menu show not transparent
weird org.mate.panel.applet.MintMenuAppletFactory in syslog when running synaptic
very frequent “at-spi-registryd.desktop not responding” error at reboot/shutdown and it’s associated very slow reboot/shutdown
In the prefered applications(menu Preferences, “Prefered applications”), Caja isn’t the File manager by default. Must add it manually.
when changing the appearance to Mint-Y-Dark the background in caja doesn’t change! you have to go to “Edit” -> “Backgrounds and Emblems” and reset it once manually. now it changes every time with the theme.
