  Doesnt see wifi networks
Posted by: TicoLyte - 01-13-2017, 04:27 PM - Forum: Network - Replies (3)

Here's an odd but probably simple one ?
I installed to my hard drive via usb stick on a Toshiba satellite while attached to a network cable. All went lovely, as usual. I disconnected and went out to my shop where I have a router and a chip thingie from moviestar which I use with my Lenovo pad and previously with this laptop with antiX running on it. Anothr router is an extensioin from the on in the house.By cable all is fine. Then I took a USB wifi antennae and plugged it in. There were the 2 wifi and I was able to connect to either one as long as the antennae is plugged in the USB, Once unplugged the wifi networks don't show in the options. Only the ethernet.
Where do I look ?
Thanks.

  sudo command

In Oracle Virtualbox I installed LinuxLite 3.2 and after the installation had sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade. After that, the sudo command has mismatched and I can not install either under GUI or in commandline further application. What can I do?
Sad

  Lite Software - Error
Posted by: Ottawagrant - 01-10-2017, 02:21 PM - Forum: Other - No Replies

Thought I should report this one.  I started 'system' > 'Lite Software' & noticed in the 'remove' section that it showed I had 'Skype'. I don't use it, so I thought I'd remove it. Highlighted 'Skype' & hit the 'remove' button. It returned an error message "Lite Software Error: - Unable to locate package skype-bin". I have no idea if Skype is installed by default in LL. I had never installed it if it wasn't. Hope this helps.

Posted by: Ironfighter - 01-10-2017, 10:52 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (11)

I have a windows 10 "Protab" tablet - do you think I could install Linux Lite on it?  Here are its specs:-

Micro-USB & MicroSD Input (Supports up to 32GB)
Android 5.0 Lollipop
Google Play Store
16GB Storage^ & 1GB RAM
Quad Core Processor
10" HD Touchscreen (1024 x 600)
0.3MP Front Camera
Bluetooth 4.0 Connectivity

I bought it on a whim because it was cheap but its going to waist sitting in a cupboard for the last 12 months.

My problem

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sourc...ug/1654511

This will cause updater to fail for some users like me.

My fix

Code:
$ cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1    localhost
127.0.1.1    shop1

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
91.189.92.191 archive.canonical.com

which makes everything work OK with the updater

Code:
$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && sudo apt-get -f install

Just mentioning this in case anybody else besides me runs into this. My install is fixed so no help question by me in this thread.

  Adding a Personal Wallpaper?
Posted by: PinStripe - 01-08-2017, 08:09 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (12)

I am just curious as to Why the programmers haven't included an ADD button to the desktop settings
window to be able to add your own wallpaper. I see that they are kept in the XFCE folder, but I am
setting up new people on the OS who will not want to be searching for this folder.

Please add a button in the desktop settings window.
