Hi all,
Did a fresh install HP Compaq Pro 6000. Everything went well with install. Getting familiar with LL3.2 changing various settings and such. Only problem I have had is somehow I removed/deleted ? the xfce folder that has the background pictures in it. Is there an easy way to restore these pictures without reinstalling the OS? The default pictures are fine and they were there when I installed the OS but that folder is now not there in the desktop menu.
Thanks.

Hi to everybody. I tested LL yesterday with USB stick to see if my hardware is detected properly. Everything seems to work fine except brightness control - no matter what value I chose it stayed the same level (80% or so). Now, before I format my HDD and remove Windows 8.1 I want to ask if this issue is easy to solve? I was able to type xrandr in terminal and change brightness manually, but I do not want to do so every time. I am going to install LL on my laptop with IntelHD 4000 graphics. Laptop is connected to external monitor via docking station.

| How to get Nvidia drivers working with Linux Lite 3.2 |

After installing Nvidia drivers, the system always booted to a blank screen by default.
Here's how I got the Nvidia drivers working with Linux Lite 3.2:
1. Run the following command: ubuntu-drivers devices
================================
Code: root@linuxlite-Inspiron-580s:/home/linuxlite# ubuntu-drivers devices
Code: == /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0 ==
modalias : pci:v000010DEd00001380sv00001458sd00003667bc03sc00i00
vendor : NVIDIA Corporation
model : GM107 [GeForce GTX 750 Ti]
driver : xserver-xorg-video-nouveau - distro free builtin
driver : nvidia-361 - distro non-free recommended
driver : nvidia-340 - distro non-free
== cpu-microcode.py ==
driver : intel-microcode - distro non-free
2. Install recommended nvidia propritary drivers:
================================
Code: root@linuxlite-Inspiron-580s:/home/linuxlite# apt-get install nvidia-361
3. Before you reboot, edit the following files:
================================
Code: root@linuxlite-Inspiron-580s:/home/linuxlite# nano /etc/default/grub
Code: GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
#GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true
GRUB_TIMEOUT=10
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`
#GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
GRUB_GFXMODE=1366x768x24 <-- Uncomment and add a known working resolution supported by your video card / monitor
Save and exit.
================================
Code: root@linuxlite-Inspiron-580s:/home/linuxlite# nano /etc/grub.d/00_header
Code: if [ "x${GRUB_GFXMODE}" = "x" ] ; then GRUB_GFXMODE=auto ; fi <-- FIND THIS LINE
if [ "x${GRUB_GFXMODE}" = "x" ] ; then GRUB_GFXMODE=keep ; fi <-- MODIFY
Save and exit.
4. Update grub:
================================
Code: root@linuxlite-Inspiron-580s:/home/linuxlite# update-grub
5. Reboot:
================================
Code: root@linuxlite-Inspiron-580s:/home/linuxlite# reboot
Hope this helps others struggling to get Nvidia drivers working correctly for them.
