Changes for MintPPC 9.3
/usr/share/applications/powerprefs.desktop
replace
Exec=powerprefs
by
Exec=gksudo powerprefs

linuxopjemac, I think it is a problem with authorization.
I finally did add the printer using cups and using the root password. Type:
http://localhost:631 in your browser. Then add printer.
Look at desktop file for the add printer GUI----------------------------------------------------
Disable Debian's own update manager (also in the panel)
In /usr/share/applications/service.desktop
Exec=gksudo services-admin
Solution:
apt remove update-manager-gnome
probably better solution to make it remove update-manager-gnome, whenever mintupdate is installed. Change source for that.
DONE -> mintupdate-4.3.3

minitube .deb

Forget the following item. It only applies when you install terminator.
something has changed with respect to default terminal. Make terminal from menu start lxterminal.
in /etc/skel/.config/lxpanel/Mint/panels/panel
change
Code:
item {
name=Terminal
image=lxterminal
action=x-terminal-emulator
}
into
Code:
item {
name=Terminal
image=lxterminal
action=lxterminal
}
A more elegant way is to change the symbolic links in /etc/alternatives (and not to touch the panel file)
rm /etc/alternatives/x-terminal-emulator
rm /etc/alternatives/
ln -s /usr/bin/lxterminal /etc/alternatives/x-terminal-emulator
ln -s /usr/share/man/man1/lxterminal.1.gz /etc/alternatives/x-terminal-emulator.1.gz
