  Lubuntu Software Center
Posted by: Bob2355 - 08-25-2016, 04:10 AM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (4)

I seem to be having trouble this evening with "Lubuntu Software Center".  I noticed  that after searching for and locating an application then clicking on the "Information" tab the "LSC" seems to hang up. Giving up on the "Information" request I attempt to exit the application and receive the following message, "The window might be busy....." "Do you want to terminate the application?"

I failed to locate any thread that deals with this issue.  Any ideas and or fixes would be appreciated.  Heading to bed now and will deal with it tomorrow.

  Linux Lite 3.0 freezing on end of install
Posted by: tommykry - 08-24-2016, 03:48 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (13)

Hi All,
Loving the new Linux Lite 3.0 have been using it as my main OS since its release and think its awesome!
My sister has an older Laptop (Acer Aspire 9300-5349)that came w Vista 32bit and 4 gig of ram, 160gig Hard drive
this one
http://static.highspeedbackbone.net/pdf/...aSheet.pdf
Anyway i picked it up from her on vaca and have 2 weeks to try and get linux lite running on it. i would love to get 3.0 on it but cant seem to get it installed, im using Linux Lite 3.0 32bit on dvd
I can get it to boot and work in live mode fine, but when i go to install it, it freezes at end of installation and i have to power off the computer as it locks up completely, ive tried it a few times and does the same thing.
Like i said it works fine in live mode.
I had a dvd laying around of LL 2.6 and it installed it and it works fine but would really love to use the new version 3.0
So if anyone has any suggestions i would appreciate it.
Thanks
Tommy Smile

Posted by: premier69 - 08-22-2016, 05:31 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (3)

hello

I like the window managment of windows and am hoping there's a way to go about the same with Linux Lite.
Namely;

I MS Windows when i drag a window around i can 'slam' it against the top to maximize it and I can use the window + arrow keys to move a window around and is there a way to do this in linux?

  Will this work well with Linux Lite? (New Computer Build)
Posted by: TuxInAGalaxy - 08-21-2016, 11:58 PM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (8)

I see in the hardware category everything is broken down in separate parts.  I just want your opinion about a computer I'm thinking about building.  This might not be in the hardware archive since I'm putting it together myself.  Will this work well with Linux Lite?

I am neonred.  There was a time that I developed customized version of windows and shared it with others, and it gained immense popularity.
About 2 years ago, I told myself what's the point windows a piece of junk/spyware.
I've been back and forth mostly due to the gaming situation on linux and because I don't like dual booting, affects system configuration stability.
So for the past year, I have been using linux lite 2.8 and past 2 months linux lite 3.0, and I couldn't be happier.  No better distro to use or to learn from. 
I'm going to attach my sysctl.conf file, it gives you that extra cushion of security after you setup the firewall in as little as one command.
It goes in /etc/, rename to sysctl.conf, sudo Thunar, replace existing one, do a reboot and you are protected. Figured new users could use it.  The last line in the file is of a recent exploit to prevent a man in the middle attack.  In general, I will be lending a hand in the forum as I am starting to feel indebted to such an awsome OS as I am gaining much confidence and learning much.
