Re: grub-install: error: /boot/efi doesn't look like an EFI partition.-solved

QSI please. I apologise for this very late reply. I've not been well and did not think to check my messages. I did solve this by using Clonezilla to make an image of the original EFI partition (there ma have been an issue with the flags) which I copied to a similar Fat32 partition created on my ssd...

Re: No ethernet after resume

Thank you both for your replies. @IOdr3, no wake-on-lan found in the bios, however I have enabled "power on pci" and "power on pcie" thinking that the onboard ethernet might depend on one of those interfaces. @Charlie Brown, I'll see what effect the above change has and then try ...

My determination to remove all vestiges of Windows from my machine I deleted the Win folder from the efi/boot partition. Now my Linux boots without loading the efi partition, which is impressive in many ways. When I try boot repair to restore the EFI boot I get the message "grub-install: error:...

Re: MX23 not seeing my bluetooth keyboard

I've given up on MX23 due to this bluetooth issue, regretfully as in other respects it appears to be a improvement. I've replaced it with MX21, which works perfectly with all my bluetooth devices.

I am currently on the road, back weds, so will be able to continue with that effort. What I see looks like your controller is loaded and up, but its not seeing an...
