OK, #rclone people. How do I add an additional directory to my copy command? In other words, adding Downloads to my Documents to copy to Google Drive. Got it working for Documents. Downloads is on the same directory level as Documents. Running #linuxmint 22.1 and rclone 1.69.1. TIA for any assistance you can offer!

Got #rclone working to back up to Google Drive yesterday. Tested it again today with changes. Awesome. Now on to set up a cron job. Loving #linux and #linuxmint. Such a relief to have my 2020 computer zipping along and not worrying about Windows10 sunsetting.

This is too bizarre.

HP ProOne G4 400 All-in-one PC:

- Win 11 is 100% stable, even in stress test
- #LinuxMint and #Debian randomly reboot leaving *nothing* in logs or dmesg
- tried 3 different drives, internal and external, 3 clean installs, no difference
- Memtest is fine, board diag passes, drives checked for errors, fine
- Everything I can test passes
- various power management settings in BIOS, no dice
- no issues in Linux other than these random reboots

Any tips? I'm out of ideas

A really great side effect of the current #GoEurope and #UnplugTrump movement is that I'm finding more and more incredibly great alternatives to services and products, as well as finding out where things come from. I got to know #Mistral from #France for the first time. And how awesome is #Cryptee from #Estonia! My favorite Linux distribution - #LinuxMint - comes from #Ireland. I didn't even know that #Poland has a manufacturer for memory with #GOODRAM. ... I love it! goeuropean.org/

Looking for help from linux mint gurus - an update ate my disk!

I just allowed update manager to update ghostscript and now I'm getting a warning that I have 0 space left in my root file system.
My /bin directory seems to contain recursive X11 folders. I'm not sure how many because I'm worried about messing with it in case I cause more problems.

I'd appreciate simple suggestions about the best way to solve this. I'm ok with using synaptic and even the terminal (if I really have to). But if you're going to ask me to delete random file please explain why.
I've been using Linux for years but I don't consider myself an expert.

I'm running Linux mint 21.3 cinnamon on an AMD Athlon with a 500GB HDD.
