I have a simple goal:  to download and install Google Earth in Lenux Lite so that I can open the program by clicking on icon or selecting it from a menu.  I have been unsuccessful in getting there.  I have searched the internet for instructions.  I have copied codes and pasted them into my terminal.  I have followed instructions on at least five webpages.  I have become frustrated.

Should I give up and return to Windows?

Ran the Driver install tool from Brother but it didn't give the Device URI as USB. I selected no when asked. Changed it to "usb://Brother/HLL2390DW but still wont see the printer. Checking on the CUPS:631 and it shows as USB now. Checked and the driver is installed.On the CUPS 631  it says to "Add device and driver" I select the device but not sure about the driver?Probably missing something simple but will only mess things up more if I keep farting around.I see three uninstaller scripts in the unzipped folder, not sure if they would be sudo bash etc. or not. I had ran the installer several times over top of the first, probably not helpful.
Starting to wish I had stayed with HP.Any ideas anyone?
Oh running LL 5.2 or 5.4 not sure. :-)

How do you make auto login apply to just one user.
In other words, when booting the computer, it should
default to auto login to one particular user and not other users.

Get:14 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-updates/main amd64 python3-pygments all 2.3.1+dfsg-1ubuntu2.1 [580 kB]

Normally my systems rip through updates quickly. I noticed this one lagged a bit today.

linux-image-generic linux-libc-dev microsoft-edge-dev python3-pygments

Must have to do with the new themes available for Edge. That answers my question. On that note by the way, sign-on and sync now work with MS Edge for Linux.

How do I restore the boot menu so I can boot into Linux Lite again?

I've been running my PC as a dual boot with Windows 10 and Linux Lite 5.2 64-bit, but after an update my PC only boots into Windows 10 and I'm not sure how to restore the boot menu.

Hallo together,

nachdem mein erster Post so klasse gelöst wurde - danke trinidad - frage ich doch gleich nochmal, bevor ich noch weitere 4 Wochen herumstümpere...

Ich würde gern den Tastenkürzelbefehl strg+alt+D auf das gute alte Win+D umstellen, wie es in Linux Mint zB. auch geht.

Nun finde ich leider den hinterlegten Befehl dazu nicht, also wie der lauten muss, noch kann ich das funktionierende strg+alt+D auf Win+D umstellen.

Weiß jemand, wo man das findet oder wie der Befehl lauten muss, um ein neues Kürzel zu etablieren?

Danke euch!!

Roger

Hallo,

nachdem ich Linux Lite auf das System, das ich bei meinem Profil angeben habe installiert hatte, wurde automatisch für meine Grafikkarte ATI X700 SE der LLVMpipe Renderer Mesa 3.2 Treiber installiert. Gehofft hatte ich auf den open source Radeon Treiber. Mein problem ist jetzt, das ich anscheinend keine Grafikbeschleunigung erfahre. Schon bei einer eher anspruchlosen Videowiedergabe ruckelt es und die Prozessorauslastung steigt auf 100 %.
Als Linux frischling und nach ausgiebiger recherche, hoffe ich nun um Hilfe und würde mich über eine Antwort freuen.
Fehlt der geignete Treiber? Wenn ja, ist dieser verfügbar? Und wenn ja, wo?

MfG

Hello,

I recently installed 5.2 X64 and have a nagging sound issue pertaining to a very small volume control range.  Sound can only be adjusted on external USB speaker from 98-100% on the volume control slider in the bottom right of the system tray.  Any setting below 98% sound cannot be heard at all.  Speaker is displayed as "USB 2.0 Device Analog Stereo" with port set to "Analog Output".  This extremely limited volume control range makes the speaker seem like its either off or 100% volume.

I didn't come across anything in the help manual under sound configuration and google/forum searches didn't turn up much.  Thanks in advance for any assistance provided.

Linux Lite Series 3.x including the following releases - 3.0 3.2 3.4 3.6 and 3.8 as of April 1st 2021, will no longer be supported in any way.

That means no updates, no bug fixes for Linux Lite created software, no patches, no new software.

This also marks the end of 32bit Kernel builds.

If you are currently running a release from Series 3.x you have 2 choices. Run it without a network connection (turn your pc off when you are not infront of it), move to a higher Series (highly recommended). Anyone with physical access to your pc running Series 3.x can take advantage of ongoing unfixed bugs and security holes. Make sure your password is unhackable (18+ characters, upper, lower case, alphanumeric).

Make the sensible choice, move on to a higher Series before 1st April 2021.

If you are unsure if your hardware will run on Series 4.x or 5.x check your if hardware is listed here first - https://www.linuxliteos.com/hardware.php

Hallo zusammen,

komme von L. Mint aber Lite gefällt mir sehr gut.

Es scheint aber noch nicht ganz ausgereift zu sein, Kontextmenüs springen in der Sprache und die Einfach-Klick-Funktion funktioniert nicht systemweit - z.B. nicht auf dem Desktop, nur innerhalb von Ordnern/Fenstern.

Weiß jemand Rat?

Dank Euch!

Gruß
Roger
