  Slow shutdown systemd
Posted by: Valtam - 09-29-2023, 03:50 AM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - No Replies

I resolved my slow shutdown with this generic fix:

Code:
sudo mousepad /etc/systemd/system.conf

change:

Code:
#DefaultTimeoutStopSec=90s

to:

Code:
DefaultTimeoutStopSec=10s

My personal root causes were: Session c2 and User Login Management both hanging. Now shutdown is almost instant.

  Slow boot fix for systemd-networkd-wait-online.service
Posted by: Valtam - 09-29-2023, 03:33 AM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - Replies (5)

Made my boot times from 1 minute, to a few seconds:

Code:
sudo systemctl edit --full systemd-networkd-wait-online.service

change:

Code:
ExecStart=/lib/systemd/systemd-networkd-wait-online

to:

Code:
ExecStart=/lib/systemd/systemd-networkd-wait-online --timeout=5

reboot.

Fix is specific ONLY to this systemd service.

I have an Intellimouse.  It works fine except for very glitchy right clock chores.  When I right click I hear several clicks and the menu disappears.  It might take 10 clicks to get a stable menu.  It sounds like a driver thing, but I am not sure where to look.  It works as it should in Windows.

Thanks for any help

  Can't get Canon PIXMA G5050 to install
Posted by: MrSinister78 - 09-28-2023, 02:06 PM - Forum: Printing and Scanning - Replies (5)

Hi there

I'm a total neophyte with Linux (installed Linux Lite yesterday), and have no idea how to install my Canon printer. No idea what I'm doing at all, tbh.

I've followed the manual, but I can't seem to find a driver file for the G5050 at all, and have no idea where to extract the driver file to in any case (unable to install to /usr/share/ppd for some reason).

Can anyone out there advise on a step-by-step for this?

Many thanks

  Installing an antivirus system and the weather app available on Linux Lite 6.6
Posted by: Carlos Bernardino - 09-27-2023, 03:08 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (5)

Hello guys, how are you?

I want to install an antivirus system in Linux Lite 6.6. I have already tried some commands but without success. I am a new user, touching these systems.

Could you help me install CLAM AV or COMODO?

I want to install the weather application available on Linux Lite Software Manager. I have already installed it with the GUI but I tried to search the weather app, and I don't see the app on the system tray!

Can you give me some GUI or command instructions to use on the terminal to solve these situations that I want? :003:

Thank you very much.

  Esc key to wake from Suspend.
Posted by: Yoru3 - 09-27-2023, 08:46 AM - Forum: Updates - Replies (3)

Following a recent software update, done in the usual way, it appears that two behaviours have changed.

1. The use of the keyboard ESC key to wake up from Suspend. I now have to push the power button on the computer.


2. Display a removable media on the desktop,  such as a USB stick, when it is plugged in.
The File Manager shows it has been recognised and mounted, but is not on the desktop as it usually is, and specific stick has done regularly before.


Is there a setting somewhere, that allows these two behaviours to be retrieved. Everything else seems to be working fine on LL6.6.



Thank You

  Wrong keyboard on logscreen
Posted by: Jean-Marc B - 09-25-2023, 08:04 AM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - Replies (2)

Hi folks !

First some context : installed LL on an old Samsung Netbook N150 a few months back. I move a lot, and I much prefer a small laptop than a tablet. Don't need somehting powerful, using it just to take notes, browse the web and watch a video. So far, so good.

But since the end of August, after an update, I've discovered that on the login screen, the keyboard is all wrong, it's impossible to put in my pass word without the virtual keyboard.

What is weird :

- fr (for Fench azerty) is displayed in the right corner of the screen as usual,
- when I invoque the virtual keyboard, it's displayed as azerty, put when I use it, it changes to qwerty,
- moreover, when I acces to desktop after logging in, the keyboard is correctly set to French azerty again,

So far, I've only be able to by pass the problem by setting the computer to auto log in at startup. It's not really a problem, but I don't like it very much.

Any idea to resolve the problem ?
