  Live System USB Linux Lite USB triggers bitlocker recovery on Thinkpad X13
Posted by: Joe Moukarzel - 05-23-2024, 01:28 AM - Forum: UEFI Secure Boot - Replies (1)

Hey,

I'm trying to run a Live System version of Linux Lite off a USB on a work Lenovo thinkpad x13 which is running Windows 11 and is bootlocker protected with TPM2.0.

I can boot it by turning off Safe Boot but then it's a pain as when i try to boot the windows partition it asks for a BitLocker recovery key.

I can also boot it with Secure Boot by enabling "Allow Microsoft 3rd Party UEFI CA" in the Lenovo Bios, but for some reason that still triggers Bitlocker recovery when booting into Windows?

Has anyone found a solution for this? Why should bitlocker care that 3rd party is enabled, it's still a certified secure boot? Is it to do with the TPM? I would love to just be able to boot off the USB without going into the BIOS everytime. Thanks in advance!

  LLOS 6.4 install on USB will not boot.
Posted by: LarryB1607 - 05-20-2024, 12:10 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (1)

Extracted iso to a freshly formatted USB drive.  All operations were successful.  I can see all items in the drive in both Windows and LLOS 5.8.  Macrium Reflect does not see the drive and Gparted sees the drive as unallocated.  The drive was formatted in both NTFS and fat 32 with the same non bootable results.  I have never had this issue before and boot LLOS 5.8 from a USB external HDD.  This same USB drive had Ubuntu Cinnamon installed on it last month and it booted fine.

  Several odd things all happened at the same time
Posted by: billtour - 05-14-2024, 08:59 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (1)

First, I have linuxlite 6.6 installed on a bootable 64Gb SanDisk Cruiser USB stick. Second, my Internet access is through my Android phone's hotspot.
Two nights ago I installed KSTARS and it was working fine - including downloading DSS images from the internet.  When I went to shut down later, I got an "error trying to log out".  Trying to logout and shut down again gave me the same error. I had to power off the computer. Last night, KSTARS failed to download any images. I tried to start up Chrome to search for a solution to this problem, but nothing happened after clicking the Chrome icon on the panel. I also noticed that the word Menu on the left end of the panel was replaced by the linuxlite feather icon.  It turns out that it brings up the whisker menu which is similar to the original menu.  Trying to logout and shuthut down from there gives me the same "error trying to logout".  Any ideas as to how I should proceed to fix these problems?

  SteamCs 1.6 launching as a grab screen with a black screen on right and top
Posted by: tarun gupta - 05-07-2024, 09:58 AM - Forum: Games Support - Replies (1)

Hi Team ,
    THis is my first post as i join this community today . Installed linux lite yesterday on my Old pc with below specs:

CPU : Intel core 2 duo E7200
RAM : 4 GB
Graphics : NVIDIA geforce 210

I have installed steam yesterday and downloaded cs1.6  in my library  . When i launch cs 1.6 , it launches with drag  black screen (like a joined blank screen on the right along with cs1.6 page)  which is moveable and i am not able to click on the options itself .I only have one monitor .  How can i resolve this ?.

I am using cs 1.6 launch options as i was doing fps troubleshooting  : -nofbo -w 800 -h 600 -nohltv -fullscreen -no sync

PLease note i have fixed NVIDIA resolution to 1920 *1080  . it is because while i was troubleshooting this issue  earlier ,  launching cs 1.6 in 800*600 was also changing my NVIDIA display configuration and given i have 27inch montitor ,  it becomes unreadable in 800*600..

Please help me resolve this .Please see attachments.

How do I know if my Windows PC has UEFI?

In Windows Search, type msinfo or msinfo32 and launch the desktop app named System Information. Look for the BIOS Mode item, and if the value for it is UEFI, then you have the UEFI firmware. If it says BIOS Mode Legacy, then that’s the firmware you’re running.

Secure Boot is supported, but unless you know exactly how to handle it, it is a P.I.T.A. at best so I am going to say...you must disable Secure Boot to enable stress free computing.

Some helpful snippets from the latest Help Manual:
