Hi all,
Love Linuxlite 2.6 64bit and it has been working great since I've installed it a few weeks ago, so thanks to the Devs and everyone putting their time in to offer this great OS.
I did an "install Update" today as normal and when i reboot now i see this popup message before it starts up:
VBoxClient: the VirtualBox kernel service is not running. Exiting
then it starts normal.
I have no virtual box stuff installed or anything installed to do with virtual box, just a normal install of Linuxlite 2.6 64bit on this dell laptop, and this only happened after i updated today?
Is there anything i can do to get rid of this message?
Thanks again.
Tommy

| Can't connect to VPN via PPTP on Lite |

I have moved this to here as previously I mistakenly put it in a thread marked 'Solved'
I am having a problem connecting to VPN by PPTP.
I have a dual boot with Windows7 and the same details (password /user-id /address) work on Windows but not on Lite.
They also work on another computer which has Xubuntu on it.
Is there anything in Lite which could explain this failure to connect?
I wondered if I should re-install anything, but it is a new installation 2 days ago...
I am on a ethernet connection and on a PC not Wifi from a Laptop.

When I install Linux Lite on the same computer as my 2 other Linux distros, Linux Lite is not accessable from the same grub boot screen.
Let me explain....
I have a Manjaro distro and a Debian distro on the same computer. I installed Linux lite and all went well. When I rebooted the grub screen indicated all 3 distros on the boot list. When I select Linux Lite, it gives me a console screen where it says file not found, press any key. When I press a key it takes me back to the grub screen. The other 2 distros boot fine. The only way I can access Linux Lite is to go into the bios and select the LL partition from the boot list. LL then boots fine.
Is there a way to fix this where I can access LL from my main grub boot screen along with the other 2 distros?
All distros are installed legacy, not UEFI.
Thanks!

| [SOLVED] NVIDIA drivers didn't work properly after reboot on Dell Latitude E6410 |

A side note to the install of LL 2.6 on my Dell Latitude E6410:
After a successful install of LL I decided to try the NVIDIA video drivers offered as options under Hardware Drivers. There were four NVIDIA drivers listed, two for version 340.96 and two for version 304.131. I tried one of each and in each case got strange behaviour on startup:
- The feather boot screen was replaced by a text version "Linux Lite 2.6" with dots below it
- My desktop background was replaced by the xfce mouse one
- The window font sizes changed
- The line for "temp1" went missing in the output for the sensors command (which I use in conky)
During boot I saw error messages flash by (stuff about udev and systemd).
I changed back to the Linux Xorg driver and all returned to normal, so this is not a big problem for me, but I thought I should report it.
My E6410 has a 1440 x 900 screen and lspci gives: VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GT218M [NVS 3100M] (rev a2)
For what it's worth.

Hi
I had a premature shut down ( see other post ) which resulted in AbiWord closing and a Letter that I was preparing for over an hour was lost .
But as AbiWord is set up to Auto save every 5 mins its not a calamity .
So all I need is to get it back .>>>>but how ??
Could not find a an option in ABI programs own Menu's
Tried Help > help contents >search >got "The [/size]AbiWord website[/size] can be searched ) > No "Search " option available
[/size]
[/size]Tried Twiki > searched for Auto Save & Autosave with similar outcomes
[/size]No page title matches
There is no page titled "autosave".
For more information about searching AbiWiki, see Help.

Tried Googling - it is a known issue but unable to find a Solved post
All I gleaned was the Auto Saves were a .BAK file in a Hidden folder without a known place it might be searched for .
I tried a Catfish Search of my "File System " for .BAK but the results did not include any from AbiWord
Then searched for ABI found the file of my letter I saved as a named file soon after I started a New Document .
Can anyone help me (hopefully intact ) where ABI put its files .
What is the sense of having an Auto Save feature that is not easily accessible when disaster strikes
