Time to say hello to Mint 19.1 AKA Tess!

Daniel, you have this PPA added in Mint Software Sources right?
ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa

That PPA should update the driver manager with the newest available versions.

When did we have to start doing that?
n any case it seems to be working but Mint Driver manger is updating VERY slow. While I wait I took these snap shots of the kids.":O}
I'll get back to you after the re-boot...Many thanks Boo,, however this turns out! ":O}

I've always had to add that PPA if I want newer drivers.
The stable drivers Mint provides are usually older because they are super-stable.
Adding the PPA is a work-around to get any version you want to try. At your own risk of course.
That is why I posted the guide. Its kinda confusing if you want newer drives and Mint doesn't provide them from their own software sources.
Yay to freedom with software sources....

Yeah...I hear you Boo....
but none but the 340's will work. every other driver set limits me to 1900
But I gots some new pics for ya! ":O}

BTW I started with the 410's and failed my way backward to the 340'...which would not reinstall. Hard to go to my back up.

Sigh.. no pics for you today! I forgot to put them on my back-up drive before I restored.

Basically it said this might be due to a software conflict some where.

I'll be messing about with it some more. I loves me back ups yes I do! LOL

I use to know that...I guess I forgot along the way.

Stay with me Boo the lights are dimming...LOL

No problem Daniel... hang in there! There is light at the end of the tunnel.

Are you rebooting between switching drivers?

Yeah. reboot each time. I'm giving it another go. There was a message about not being to use bionic?
I'll take care to save the message for you in back-up drive when I restore...ah..cough., if I need to restore.":O}

We haven't forgotten about the pretty pictures now have we? ":O}

Boo-Hoo!

What about about the three under optional sourses?

Should I check the second one. the first one is checked by default/

I'm not sure what those optional sources are for???
I have both Graphics-drivers and graphics-drivers (Sources) checked

Nope didn't forget about wallpapers.
I think there is a folder in your /home that hosts wallpapers if you want them all in one place.
but I like to use my own folder and just add it.

Just did a search and this website hosts the wallpapers and tells you where they are saved:
http://oswallpapers.com/linux-mint-19-1-tessa-default-desktop-wallpapers/

Done and done. Thanks Boo, see you next release by which time you should expect that I will have once again forgotten!! ":O}

Ha ha!
Did you notice they host all of the backgrounds?
Even all the Mint versions...

Ok, I "seem" to be set up for this as you are. did a new back up while I waited. So we have set up stable.
I'll try the 410's again and get back to you.

A while back I dragged my lazy ass though this. So I have all the other back grounds and rotate in slide show every single one of them.My folder also contains all my "artworks". Hey! Free beauty! ":O}

Nice!
My backgrounds are of my favorite games and my own game screenshots

I didn't get the bionic error message this time...I cling to every hope! ":O}

Hey free beauty!":O}

4.15 drivers you say?
Because I EARNED them.
or maybe because Boo gave them to me!
Either way we got her done."
:O}

Please don't hate me, it's not my fault honest!!
