Ubuntu having discussion over whether to keep 32bit or not...

https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu...39420.html

I installed LL3.0 on the second hand Lenovo B50-30 i bought yday.


In the BIOS i did set the boot mode to Legacy Support and Boot Priority to Legacy First.
There was also a option called OS optimized defaults, it had 2 options to choose from, Other OS and Win8 64bit..i set it to other os..LL3.0 is other os and not win8


Now i have 2 problems which are similar.
1. When i shut the laptop down it doesnt shut down all the way, i get as far as a black screen with power button and num lock light on, then it just sits there. I have to force close it to shut it completely down.


2. When i choose to restart laptop it dos the same as when i want to shut it down, it doesnt restart, just sits there with the power button light and the numlock light on and a black screen. I then have to manually force close it to be able to restart the laptop.


It starts up withou a problem and as far as i can tell all works without a problem. Just the shut down and restart that isnt working as it should be.

been using this app for a month, had to do a clean install on the dell 1501 and now it says, Clementine Error-"Your GStreamer installation is missing a plugin. Never seen this one before?

"The bottom line ... probably one of the single best distributions geared toward new users. ..."

Just another great review.  8)

I have LL 3.0 x64 installed from a usb on two systems currently.  My HTPC installed without issue.  However, my Lenovo Yoga 300 is the problem.  I have it set to legacy in the BIOS and am able to boot from the live installation stick and install to the internal 32 GB MMC in the laptop. However, when I reboot after the installation, I am getting the message "No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key".  I have gone through the settings in the BIOS but cannot get it to work.  I had tried Peppermint OS 7.0 previously and this installed via UEFI without any problems.  However, I would prefer to run LL

Any help greatly appreciated, thanks

Some of the plugins I use in Firefox I need.  Thats why I haven't switched to google chrome or chromium.  But Firefox keeps getting slower.  It's probably not the plugins because I don't use anymore than 4 or 5.  The other day I decided to give Pale Moon a try.  It's a lot faster.  Is running smoother.  But the spell checker doesn't work on every forum site I visit.  Also I can't get the html5 working in HD on youtube smoothly.  I also have that same problem with firefox.  In firefox hmtl5 is really slow.  Especially when I need to switch between full screen and the original size.

Unable to update my newly installed linuxlite2.8 to 3.

it shows it's already new version when I give this command

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install lite-upgrade-series2 -y

Even I am not able to get adobe installed. I can't open Software center to install adobe or any other software I can't search in Synaptic package manager

I use xfce mailwatch to check if i got new email. It worked without any problems before. But now after i boot up laptop i get the following error: Could not find host "pop3.telfort.nl": Name or service not known.


But when i then just manually do a mailcheck i dont get any errors and everything works fine untill the next reboot or log out/log in.


I googled but couldnt find any solution to the problem. Anyone have any idea what might be causing this and how to fix it?


Edit: Installed LL3.0 and now xfce mailwatch is working correct again. No idea what caused the problem. Didn't had it before on LL2.8. Marked topic as solved

An Thank You for a wonderful distro,I'm finally done hopping an found a Home! Keep up the great work an I'll tell all who will listen what a great job all of You have done!
Thx Again!

I have grub-customizer installed on a different HD/with Win7&Mint 18,although i can see LL in grub on the other drive I can not boot into LL! I've been changing HD boot in the bios to get onto this drive. I guess what I'm asking does anyone know how I can fix this! I don't want to keep changing this in the bios.
