Oh really? Thanks for letting me know, been intending to make some more space.

Right, I understand.

It's an old Dell OptiPlex 7020 desktop, so that's 2014. Should I presume that's just too early? I don't suppose it's possible to get an appropriate driver?

No matter, the speaker works on my other computer

I'm trying to connect a bluetooth speaker in MX-21. I am wondering whether my machine is just too old for bluetooth. Appreciate any advice.

I can't open Bluetooth Manager via the menu so I tried to open it in terminal and got:

$ blueman-manager

Ah right, getting rid of mx-tools.menu has done the trick.

Amazed I never noticed the two items before.

Thanks.

Just noticed that my 21.3 has two MX Tools items in the Whisker menu list, with their contents identical. I don't think it's anything I've done, and I don't know how long it has been like that, so maybe everyone on 21.3 has this?

Ah right, just done that, this is the terminal output I get:

I pretty sure this problem started after the last MX-21.3 update, though not saying it was anything to do with it. If I click anywhere on the slider to move the video back or forward, VLC crashes. I don't remember any recent VLC update so I'm presuming something in the last MX-21.3 update doesn't ...
