I was just a Windows user 1 day ago. I had no space because of windows. I couldn't even update my windows anymore due to lack of space. But after I installed this I had 20GB free of space. I couldn't even believe this at first. Now I have pretty much lagg free gaming. This OS is my favorite so far. I don't even think I will run out of space with this. I used to only be able to open 4 tabs in chrome, now I can have a lot more than what I counted. I counted 14 tabs.

This is even video worthy on my Youtube channel.

I rate this OS 5/5
I rate Windows 10 2/5

Just wondering if there is any software out there to Linux Lite to a droid so you can receive/send text messages.  My work environment is such that I have to keep my phone sound/vibrate off so I miss messages but if I could connect Linux to get a notification and reply to texts that would be great.

I was trying to install virtualbox (and other applications) and I couldn't i would get this error. "Only one software management tool is allowed to run at the same time" And the thing is I don't have another software management tool open.


Solved!!!

Assistance would be much appreciated.

Hey hey!

Can you install Lnux Lite on Mac Pro 2009/2010?I'm not sure of the model yet.Also, it has a RAID controller, which could be a problem I guess... :-S
Thanks!
Edit : Changed from 2010/2012 to 2009/2010

I've been using the OS for a while with very little issue but after a recent update the start up sequence has slowed down dramatically, I have purged Virtual Box as a general recommendation pointed out in other post of this forum but with little effect.

can i use windows 10 in virtualbox? can i buy product key and activate windows 10 in virtualbox?

Hello,


This printer is correctly working under LL 4.8 from several PC's.
Under LL 5.0 I get message "rendering completed". And printer tasks are stopped and stay in the printer queue.


I downloaded the most recent printer driver from HP site (as HP is now managing Samsung laser printers), installation without any problem.
The printer is founded by LL, I am able to get information concerning toner level from "properties" panel.


Firewall is disabled.

Thanks in advance for your help and informations

Hello, been away for a while and decided to test LL5 on a few old Windows-handicapped laptops before installing it later on my office PC running an old version of LL. I have had two failures on the old laptops and am perplexed as I have never had install problems with LL before.


To take the first problem, which is on a fairly old Toshiba Satellite:
The CD checks out and the OS works on the laptop hardware - though it does display a few error messages very quickly that screen upwards before the CD loads the OS for testing. Once loaded, absolutely everything works smoothly running LL5 from the CD.
The full erasure install hung a few times but eventually claimed a successful install. The machine does not boot at all though. I just get a flashing cursor in the upper left corner. I have gone through the install process via the CD several times, it claims success, but the machine performs like a brick now.


I have no idea what I should be looking out for or what alternatives I can try to get an install. The machine does not have any UEFI listing in the BIOS, the only useful parameter I can find is boot order.


Any advice gratefully welcomed.
