Now I never used systemd (then again,im not too familiar with Linux too) but Im asking if there is anyone who can help me identify services which are safe to disable.
Id like to make this system lean and stable as much as I can but Im afraid to mess around systemd (dont want to lose stability or brake the system).

BOINC participants around the world have long been searching for a BOINC Lite distro package. All this package needs is:

1. Basic GUI Desktop for single monitor with no frills
   
2. Prompt for installing NVidia drivers during installation
   
3. BOINC
   
4. Text editor with optional spell check
   
5. minimal browser
   

I'm using one of my machines, Dell 531 and I installed 3.0 on it then I notice a shaded line across the screen this machine had a ADM graphic card but I changed it to a Radeon grachip card, R5 / 220, is there anyway to correct this and get rid of this shaded on the screen?

Thanks so much

Hi. How long will Linux Lite 3.0 be supported?

My favorite distro is Xubuntu, because I like XFCE and it is one of the Ubuntus, which means long-term support, i.e. predictability. I have tried Linux Lite 3.0 for a few weeks, and I like using it mainly because it is user friendly. I'd like to use it long-term, but will it be supported in the long term?

I'm new to Linux Lite, but have used Ubuntu and mostly Puppy as far as Linux goes.  I installed 3.0 as a dual boot with Win Vista on an eMachines EL-1300G.  I'm using a generic bluetooth dongle that I purchased off Amazon.  The bluetooth adapter works on Win 10 without issue.  I'm using a smartphone to send a jpg over, and Linux Lite gives me an option to accept the file, which I did.  According to my phone, it's being downloaded.  However, I cannot locate the file.  An old thread from 9/15 says that it's in /etc/skel, but I go that folder and I do not see it.  I did a file search in Thunar, but do not see it either.

Can someone tell me where the file may be?

Hello everyone I have a HP mini which I was trying to install Linux lite 3.0 but for some reason I do not have a wireless available this same machine had Ubuntu 16.04 and everything was working great as far as Wireless goes. Any idea how to get this machine connected to my wireless network?

Thanks so much

This might be of passing interest.
See this video by Quidsup on his youtube channel - some of the technical bits went a bit above my head but the gist of what he's saying underlines what he meant when he said that adobe flashplayer "has more security holes than a collander" and so should be deleted from your computer.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyCLMp2rR0c

In another video he expressed the view that though adobe flashplayer was bad enough on windows OS, it was even worse for Linux, as adobe had all but abandonned security updates for Linux....

My young son expressed a wish to have Lubuntu14.04 & LL2.8 added to his win7/zorin9 dual-boot [see setup (3) in signature below], which I've now done. However, I need to delete & reinstall the LL partitions on this multiboot system.

The situation doesn't seem (at least to me)  to be as straightforward as a win7/LL dual boot. With win7/LL I would use the win7 repair disk and enter the commands bootrec /fixboot  and then bootrec /fixmbr in the command prompt (X:\Sources>), following deletion of LL using gparted. After that, LL (or another OS) can either be safely added to win7 or win7 simply left as a single-boot system.  However, I don't think I can do that here as I have more than one distro booted with win7.

As I wish to remove & reinstall  LL2.8 in a win7/zorin9/lubuntu14.04/LL2.8 setup, can I merely delete LL in gparted and then simply reinstall it.  As I'm replacing like-with-like, I'm assuming the grublist or win7 bootloader wont get messed up - is this assumption correct or is there another method to do this?

Thanks for any help on this one.

Rhythmbox wont stream podcasts stream newly added radio stations.

It will play the "out-of-the-box radio stations just fine. but if I try and add a radio station link, they wont play. the same for podcast streams like NPR news. I can easily type npr news in the search bar to add, and i get many results for news but cannot subscribe because I get a message stating that a connection cannot be established and I should check my internet connection.

All the while I'm able to use the exact player I have installed on my ubuntu gnome machine and it plays both the radio station i added and the npr news feed I added, just fine.

I'm thinking something in the linux lite distro isn't supporting rhythmbox fully.
Does anyone have any sugestion for me?
