This problem seems to pop up sporadically lately with some of these older (era 2007-2010) laptops on which I have put LL3.4-3.8 and I am unsure why this occurs.

Essentially laptops where they previously showed the active networks available listed under the "WiFi networks", now the "WiFi networks" is grey and no choices show.  I can connect to my WiFi by clicking on "Connect to Hidden WiFi network...", but this will not be user friendly to the youth with whom I place these computers as I believe they may need to know more info to actually connect to new network...

Would someone be able to tell me how I can get the "available networks" to show up? and maybe explain why this is happening?  I don't believe it is happening simply because I have checked and installed updates, I recall one of the youth saying it simply started on his laptop and he would not have been doing any updates.

Web browser games have advantages and disadvantages to them, both significant. First, the advantages are that these games are easily accessible on all platforms employing web browsers supported by the game, meaning, even non-PC users can enjoy them. These games are also free to play most of the time, as well as being popular due to easy accessibility. They do not require doing any installations or maintaining of any local software, save for the multipurpose web browser itself. For the negativity of cheating - the corrosion of any longevity - the cheating can still be present, as nothing is entirely crackproof, but maybe to a lesser extent, since hacks would need to come as plugins, I imagine. Disadvantages are that these games understandably have to keep it simple enough on the surface level. Performance can be limited at times. There is the little amount of customizability as well. Some people may also claim playing through a web browser is less comfortable and less stable to having a software installed actually on the machine. What I recommend, is to turn the fullscreen mode on when playing, in order to avoid jumping out of the window accidentally.

Recommendable web browser games that I know of - links:

A Dark Room
Famous minimalistic game tresspassing conventions, by Michael Townsend.

Surviv.IO
Popular, topdown view battle royale with amazing gameplay quality.

Little War Game
Real time strategy game with impressive level of customizability.

SuperHot prototype version
Played SuperHot? If not, this is your chance to see what is it about.

Contre Jour
Wonderfully looking sideview platformer.

You can also try to google out some of the classic titles, such as Minesweeper, Solitaire or Sudoku.

What I think could be interesting for aware Linux users in these games, is that they were not developed for any other operating system in particular, which means, they go above and beyond the problem of local compatibility, causing so much controversy - especially as of lately - in the community.

I want you to think Coke Lite first.

Now I want you to think Linux Lite.

Sometimes I am wondering, why is Linux Lite so underappreciated in the verbal advertisement going around in the Linux world, such as, why is Linux Lite not even included in many pools for favourite distro?

Then it hit me. Because this distro, is what the Linux world is afraid of. It pronounces the fate of Linux as sedimenting to a crystal, possibly closed source structure, where Linux becomes a product, eventually rolling out with a Lite version of own self.

Paranoia? Too much abstract thinking? What did I take to pop up with something like that?

No, I say, metacognition. Just try to connect the dots which do not seem so obvious.

But I think Linux Lite is a perfect distro. That is why, the worse for it.

Hi, I've installed Lite and then decided to change my DE to Deepin. I followed these instructions https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2018/06/how-...untu-18-04 and everything went fine until I logged off and saw that there's no select button under the XFCE bar to switch desktops. Is there a way to change between through the CLI?

I got the following error while installing update

I am using LL 4.2, just got a Brother HL-L2390DW All in One Printer Scanner, was unable to load disc that came with printer.
I am able to print documents but unable to scan, get message to hook up scanner or scanner not found. Simple Scan icon appears on desktop. I am dual booting with Windows10 and can perform all functions. Have been working with Brother Support but they have no solutions as yet.
My command entry is not that swift so any instructions have to be specific and step by step.
Thank you, in advance for any help.

So far the Onboard keyboard at login has worked well on two other older laptops, however on one laptop (a Mecer, i3, RAM 2 GB, HD approx 250 GB) it is now showing a black box with no letters at login.

It did show the proper keyboard at login initially, but not now even if I shut down and reboot.  When I do login using the real keyboard I can pull up the Onboard keyboard which shows up and works just fine.

I did find this thread, however it is rather detailed and greek to me!  Here is the link:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sourc...ug/1562734

I initially had added the package via a command line rather than through install/remove programs in menu: $ sudo apt-get install onboard then opened the lightdm to set the keyboard on login settings via the misc tab.

These further comments may be helpful:
1) I decided to completely uninstall Onboard and then reinstall via the install/remove programs in the menu.  I clicked for install on the same two packages which I uninstalled earlier.  It when through what it was suppose to do, but then a message came up saying that it couldn't install it (sorry, I didn't take a pic of exactly what it said).
2) I then decided to restore to an early system back restore.  Once restored I shut down and rebooted and voila the login Onboard keyboard showed up just fine.  I then shut it down again and rebooted and now the login keyboard is black again.

Does anyone have a fix for this?

how do i install the free avast anti-virus on LL?
i looked on their website but cant seem to find a way there
much appreciated

Ok peeps, I keep getting this message at the start of the computer with LL, I think I know what it means but I want to be sure.
So if I can get a shout out about it that would be great.


Thanks.


Here is what I get, then the screen goes blank and the mouse cursor is an X I close it and then the blank screen
