This is Patomas, I've been registered a little bit but I had been gone for months. As others, COVID-19 had me locked down at home so I decided to roll up my sleeve and take it upon myself installing Linux Lite. I did extensive research before deciding to choose this distro. What I found is that it's the right combination of lightweight and functionality that I needed along with compatibility and user friendliness (if that is a word). My first attempt burst into flames and I couldn't really make it work. I was up against a very locked down corporate Windows box. In the end I was able to install Fedora alongside Windows 10 but that's not what I wanted. I decided to give new life to my 10-year old Sony Vaio laptop. It has Windows 7 and no UEFI (that was part of the problem the first time around). I went through the installation and to my surprise it worked the first time around! What I have to say about Linux Lite is that makes my old laptop perform as fast as my newer (4-year old) corporate Lenovo, sometimes faster (McAfee can slow down the faster computers). So far I a happy as a clam and working away. There are things that are going to be a challenge (Citrix anyone) but others work right out of the box. That's all, I hope everyone is safe and thank you for the forum.

I may have done a dumb thing. I backed my master hard drive and got a pop-up window saying that there were two kernels of data taking up a large amount of hard drive space,and I should remove them.
I did. Now when I try to open up my photo's the computer hangs for a very long time before it will allows me to view a photo or select the next one in line.
Is there a way to do a 'system restore" in linux lite?

| LL4.8 takes a lot to boot |

Hi, I recently installed LL 4.8 on an old HP Compaq 6710b laptop. It installed perfectly fine and I'm currently writing this post from there, so it works fine and fast once logged in. But every time I boot (no dual boot, LL only) it takes a lot of time to reach to desktop. Similarly when I shut down, it takes some time to do it, more than it should.
So I've taken a look to dmesg and have found that there is some problem than repeats over boot time (and also at shutdown) and slows things down a lot:
Quote:q-6710b-GB889ET-ABE kernel: [ 13.280068] [drm:drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_flip_done [drm_kms_helper]] *ERROR* [CRTC:34:pipe A] flip_done timed out

What do you think?

| Wine install screw up |

So I got Lite 4.8 running (thanks for the help from a previous post). Now I screwed up Wine quite badly.
Thought I could upgrade to the latest wine-stable (5.0) and somehow ended up with a version mistmatch 547/597. I did everything, updates, repository adds, etc from the command line.
Basically just want Directx 11 to work. Now I'm not sure what I did, or how to fix it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

| UEFI Install problems |

So..... I tried installing the UEFI build 4.2 for LL on my UEFI Acer laptop. E5-722-49HD. The live usb that I made with uNetbootin seemed to work fine. It was a little slow on boot but everything booted up into the live environment. I installed on to the laptop from there and did not receive any errors. When I rebooted though, it only boots into Win 10. Yes I installed LL 4.2 along side win 10. I went back into the live environment and can see the area allocated for LL. But I can't seem to get it to load. I went into setup and UEFI is enabled along with secure boot. However I cannot go into the secure boot and turn if off. What am I or did I do wrong? Any thought would be great, Thank you.
