Hi Guys, I have just booted to Linux lite, with a view to installing it, to revive an old laptop, which I intend to give to a homeless charity. All seem to work. But I can't SU to root!!
I have tried "linux" "admin" and "root".. No joy!
What password should I use?

Hi All,
Newbie mog here. I have just installed Linux Lite on an old Asus Eee 904HD, I formerly had Linux Mint 19.3 on it, but whilst it worked it was very slow, so after some research I decided to give LL a try, I eventually managed to correct the automatic num lock problem (Who on earth decided that that was a good idea!!?).
Now the problem...
Since I installed LL on the machine whenever I apply mains power it auto boots, this has only happened since LL was put on it, I admit it's not the end of the world but it is at times irritating, sometimes I use the machine and all I want do is recharge the battery but as soon as the power is switched on it boots.
Can anybody help?
Beers

Hi everyone,
Since I've installed Lite on a 15" MacBook Pro, I've decided to hide the Menu bar to maximize window display. Thing is, when i do that, I can't see the clock anymore, unless I trigger the Whisker Menu with the Command key.
I believe there's a way to add the clock, without or without date, in the top bar / application bar, but i can't find where in the Settings.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
PS: I thought I could easily add a screenshot to illustrate what I mean by top bar, but you can't easily do that, and I'm pressed for time.

I have just installer Linux lite - 'really like it except the file explorer that comes with it doesn't have a convenient tree structure in a left pane, like that of Windows Explorer.
Is there one that I can download and install on Linux Lite? I see Konqueror has this but it says it is for KDE. I don't believe L-Lite is KDE. Is this right, or could I use Konqueror?
Thanks!!

Hi everyone,
I've downloaded, unzipped and copied icon sets to my /usr/share/icons folder, but when I go to Appearance and try to apply said icons, they're not in the list.
I've rebooted several times, I can't find them.
When I sudo update-icon-caches /usr/share/icons/*, I get an error message for one of the sets (Arc-ICONS), but that's it.
