I can't think of anything different I've done. I use Cinnamon as my DE. I have installed new kernels as they have arrived in my Update Manager, but I don't remember if my current problem coincided with a new kernel install. Mike On 10/3/21 10:18 AM, David Carlson wrote: It seems odd that a di

It seems odd that a distro release 3.8 would change in Linux Mint when it does not in other linux flavors. Have you changed desktops or ?? On Sun, Oct 3, 2021, 10:04 AM Mike via gnucash-user < gnucash-user@gnucash.org> wrote: > My distribution is behind on updates as usual. I think I can get 4.

I am using release 3.8 in Linux and the behavior in the account box is still the same as it has been for years. You need to enter characters matching existing entries in the COA. The changed search behavior is more recent, iirc that started in release 4.something. On Sun, Oct 3, 2021, 9:01 AM M
