  Boots with Initial Progress Bar for 3 Secs onto Black Screen on Startup
Posted by: Netuzist - 11-18-2015, 09:34 AM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - Replies (3)

Hi there;

    I have this distro installed as the sole os on my modified Intel Core i3 4010U chrome-box with an Intel Graphics 4000 GPU.  Okay, so my problem is this when I boot the system the inital progress bar is displayed for 3 or 4 seconds then all I see is a black screen.  Upon pressing the power button on my chrome-box, the system shuts down as usual.  I've typed this on my pc for convenience purposes and don't know if I'll be able edit this post to attach the error log later on from my chrome-box, if not it will be in the follow-up post.  Anyway thanks for reading my post and I hope we'll be able to resolve this in a timely manner.

fter someone kindly pointed out how to find what Posts I had made I still find in inconvenient to get to it on my 10" screen netbook - I have to scroll down my Profile Page to get to the link.

Is it possible to include it in the sign on list as I often refer to mine as I forget the subject of a posts I want to refer to .

I thought it could replace the New Replies link but the "new replies"  might get lost if someone makes a lot of post. Should I get notified of "new replies " to posts I have replied to but am not the OP ?

Is there a way to map to folders, so they connect every time I power on the system?

  Touchpad Sensitivity
Posted by: Colin23erk - 11-16-2015, 08:53 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (3)

Hello
I find that touching my Touchpad accidentally using Menus and input boxes can cause me all sorts of errors and wrong options being set - leading to frustration when  I was trying to install LL and at other times . I experience problems of the cursor moving after I manage to get it on the correct place if I do not lift my finger straight up .


I doubt if the sensitivity can be adjusted during the setup of LL lite but I hope it can be achieved once LL is being used .


I know how to turn off tapping using the "Mouse and Touchpad" settings app which is prevents accidentally clicking on the wrong option.
But there does not appear to be any method to reduce the sensitivity of the pad to enable me to set it to my preferences.
This option is available in some laptops  using the Windows settings interface .
I suspect it may be dependent on the manufacturers of the pad having drivers that allow the Sensitivity to be adjusted .
Has anyone managed to solve this when using LL


Colin

Code:
