I just found that the 10 key on my keyboard isn't working after I installed Lite 4.8. I've rebooted, then shut down and restarted, but to no avail. Anybody have any thoughts?

I've been gone a while. I tinkered around with Mint Mate and Mint XFCE, then I've had a whole bushel basket of health issues. I'm just now getting around to loading Lite 4.8 on my laptop.

My question pertains to the availability of the Mint Update that Ralph tweaked. I was unable to install it using his instructions. I sent a message to him, but haven't received any answer so checked on his status. I see where he hasn't logged on since October 2019. Therefore I have 2 questions. First, is the Mint Update he tweaked no longer available? If so, I can use the default updater if I only knew where to find it. I'm not seeing any updater in the default installation. I have Lite Updates Notify and Lite Upgrade, but I'm not seeing any updater. Yes, I know I can use Synaptic, but I would kind of like to have some sort of updater.

Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.

Hi;I have linux lite X32 installed on an old laptop.
It has ran for over a year. I keep it updated at least weekly.
This past week it started locking up.  I then got error message hard drive full.I checked and it was at 100% 72gb. and it then started not loading properly..
I deleted all files in downloads and media. emptied trash. got it to 97%.
I had next to no files on this laptop.
How do I find/get rid of/clean up the excess files  70+gb excessive for OS and very few apps.
Why would drive fill up, I have no downloads/music/videos.

TIA

I have used different versions of Lite and have never had issues with my Canon CanoScan Lide 35 scanner. I am using Lite 5.0 and I cannot get the Quality Brightness or Contrast settings to work. I have removed and re-installed the app several times. It seems that some dependencies may be missing. Any help will be appreciated.

Getting these update errors for the last 2 weeks and updates fail.I removed blueman and dropbox, and then it works, but how do I get bluetooth to work?
I was trying to make bluetooth work, but it doesn't like the repositories.Tried the instructions here, but they are from 2014.  Any suggestions?

In LL4.8, the ufw firewall was simple to operate, just set it to autostart on boot.

In LL5.0, Firewalld seems very complicated.
I can't figure how to make it start at boot and the options are,
at least to me, not understandable.

Also, what is Firewall-cmd and how does it figure into Firewalld ?

Is it ok to just use the default Firewalld settings ?

And how do you start Firewalld and how do you autostart it on boot ?

And once you have it running, how do you disable it if needed and
then re-enable it ?

Die neue Lite-Version 5.0 ist nun auch im deutschen Wikipedia-Artikel über Linux Lite dokumentiert:

• Wikipedia: Linux Lite - Versionen
  

I've tweaked many menu entries with the menu editor.

• For example I've added a category "Schrfiten" (which means "fonts").
  
• Also I've added the program name to several program entries, because f. e. I have installed multiple text and graphic editors.
  

Hiya Folks,

I have installed Cherrytree 0.39.3 today as I had just installed LL 5.0. this week.

The LL4.8 also had Cherrytree installed.

Problem:

In the previous install I could copy and paste text and images from a web page, into Cherrytree, no problem

In this version that was installed via snap store only copies the text, and does not copy paste the images as well.

I have searched the google and come up with no answers as yet. Has any body had this problem and found a fix?
thanks
H
