| Login not working with WAP or WAP2 on Linux Lite Forum |

Hello,
I just checked the WAP(or WAP2, I'll use WAP for both) version of LL forum and it works great, but to some extent. When I tried logging in to forum via WAP it gave an error- [tt]Your session timed out while posting. Please go back and try again.[/tt] And, landed on url- https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/login2/?wap2 . Just as an experiment I tried logging in via WAP when I was already logged in(the usual way), it accepted!
I understand that in today's day and age, there are not much people using WAP, but I think it should not be overlooked. For that we may be losing a valuable member.
Thanks.

I upgraded from 2.2 to 2.8 there were multiple problems as it was updating that I had to cancel out of and keep going but it finished and was fine.
I then was notified there was a new kernal to download, which I did and same thing, it said my config was altered and would I like to replace it so I did( I don't know why it was altered.
Now after restarting and updating it I cannot log in.
when I start LL it fails then restarts bringing me to the advanced options menu gnu grub version 2.2then I start ubuntu with linux 4.4.0- 79 generic recovery mode.
Then recovery menu/resume/ok exit recovery mode then the login screen page comes up(I turned that off in the previous version).
I put in my password and and it shows logging in but never does(stays on that page showing logging in. If I don't use a pw or a different one it authentication failed.
When I get to grub page I have these options each with generic plain, upstart, recovery mode, none will allow me to get by the login screen
4.4.0-79
3.19.0-80
3.13.0--24

| Canon Lide 100 not working |
|
Posted by: sanmayjoshi - 06-16-2017, 02:06 PM - Forum: Printing and Scanning

Hello,
I have a Canon Lide 100 scanner(Yes, USB only). It is getting detected but the Document Scanner is not able to scan documents via scanner. I even tried installing Sane along with XSane Image Scanning Program, but no luck. XSane shows the scanner info, just gives error-Failed to start scanner: Error during device I/O. when asked to scan.
I would really appreciate any help.
Thanks.
Edit:
I am adding solution with explanation to above problem in case it might help someone --
I don't know which specific step out of following made scanner work, but it worked. 
Make sure you have scanner plugged in(yep, the USB).
First check if you have sane installed along with dependencies and libusb-dev, build-essential, libsane-dev . To install sane- Code: sudo apt-get install sane #this shall install sane with any dependencies
Code: sudo apt-get install libusb-dev build-essential libsane-dev
Type in terminal-You may find something like-
[tt]
# sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the
# result is different from what you expected, first make sure your
# scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer.
# No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that
# you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9, product=0×1904, chip=GL843) at libusb:001:004
# Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by
# SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend’s manpage.
# Not checking for parallel port scanners.
[/tt]
if not, don't worry.
Now go to- https://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=san...ckends.git (which I found when I googled for [tt]git://git.debian.org/sane/sane-backends.git[/tt]), and download(click on snapshot) the master branch(yep, the one with master tag). Extract(to any directory but in this solution it is to USER/) and rename it to sane-backends. Then via terminal change directory to sane-backendsvia command - Code: cd USER/sane-backends #it may differ in your case
Code: export BACKENDS="net mustek mustek_usb genesys"
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var
make
sudo make install
sudo bluefish /lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules #I use bluefish editor
If it worked fine and a text file got opened then add-
Code: # Canon CanoScan Lide 100
ATTRS{idVendor}==”04a9″, ATTRS{idProduct}==”1904″, ENV{libsane_matched}=”yes”
But, in my case I found out that /lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules didn't exist in my pc. If that's the case then create 40-libsane.rules in /lib/udev/rules.d/ as root and paste-
Code: # Canon CanoScan Lide 100
ATTRS{idVendor}==”04a9″, ATTRS{idProduct}==”1904″, ENV{libsane_matched}=”yes”
Restart your PC.
Type in terminal- it should return-
[tt]device `genesys:libusb:001:003' is a Canon LiDE 100 flatbed scanner
[/tt] (001:003 may be replaced with something else in your case). Test your scanner(try scanning via Document Scanner or XSane).
Type in terminal- Code: scanimage -d genesys:libusb:001:003 --format=tiff >image.tiff
Code: scanimage -d genesys:libusb:001:003 --format=tiff >image.tiff
 )). Now, what you just scanned will be (at least, should be) saved in [tt]USER/ [/tt] . Congrats, your scanner is working(at least it did in my case! ). Again test your scanner via Document Scanner(or XSane). Restart your computer, and again test your scanner via Document Scanner(or XSane).
If it passed all the tests, yep, your scanner is working awesome!

| What is going on with Libre Writer? |

Every time I open a doc in Libre Writer, it takes several minutes to open!
This Never used to occur.
The blue bar loads at the bottom of the page and shows the progress and
some docs can take like 5 minutes to load!
I'm running LinuxLite 3.4 with all the current updates and opening .doc files.
Is this an issue for Linux Lite only or is this happening across the board?
I really want to install a different office suite, but can seem to get one to
run on this OS.
Maybe LinuxLite could go back to installing Open Office by default?
