So, this sucks. On Mint, Firefox was running super sluggish to the point of being unusable. I reinstalled Ubuntucinnamon because I enjoyed using it when I had it installed, but between me last having it installed and now there seems to have been an update that has broken cinnamon's system tray. Which, for me, is a major functionality.

I really don't want to twiddle my thumbs waiting and trying to figure out why shit isn't working right, but I really do like the cinnamon de. ugh

ideas?

That's interesting. I use Mint on 2/3 of the machines I use and I have no such issue. One is my multimedia PC, connected to my lounge TV but in that I don't use Firefox as much as we like to cast stuff to chromecasts around the house and Chromium supports it natively.

Like in other comments, maybe a clean OS install might help you? Are you sure your hardware isn't playing tricks on you?
