I finally bit the bullet and bought the new computer I've been needing for a while now (my old Compaq took a lot of abuse for as long as the poor thing could). But now that I've finally gotten my new Lenovo, I've been stuck as to how I should go about installing LL 2.2 on it. Below are some links to the exact specs of my model. I don't have any experience with installing on machines that boot UEFI and I would hate to erase or damage the system after only having it a couple weeks!

Ideally I'd like to dual boot Linux with Win 8.1 so I have the choice between operating systems when starting up, but I'm not sure if this is possible with UEFI? I use my computer for work, and will rely heavily on the graphics drivers for editing intensive software and the like. I'm just not sure where to begin. If someone could help shed some light on this for me, I'd be so grateful! I love this distro and can't imagine going back to Mint or Ubuntu.

Thanks in advance! ;D ~ Amanda

Hi.

I got a personal seedbox, but when i add your torrents it never starts and give a timeout?
Anyone with the same problem or know the answer to why?

Downloaded isos on my computer without a problem.

Felt like helping out seeding but atm not possible

First of all Hi, and sorry for long post :]
Second, I need to mention that Its not my first linux, but it doesn't mean that Im an expert or something. I have few servers with Debian, and I used for some time Ubuntu(as far as I remember it was 9) But I know only what I need to know, so its basic info+terminal+few other things.
I never had any problem with Linux, but this what I encounter in LinuxLite its just hilarious for me... 

I know that you, as a full time linux users, like to brag about how linux is secure,but there is difference between security and one step too throwing your netbook from second floor...


So lets get straight to the point:

Normally to remove this annoying password prompt in every damn window in linux I edit sudoers file  and just putt there: ""%admin ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL""
And if system is cool, and it have option for removing it I just use it. Simple and quick.

But not in Linux Lite...
I tried UserManager... nothing.
I tried changing files via terminal... still I see this damn prompt...
looking for help in internet... 99% mention solution that I already used.

Please dont start talking that its "for safety" because its not even funny... its just sad for people who think that spending additional  hour everyday to entering the same password over and over is safe. its stupid, deal with it.

I use this netbook as a cam server and for some app that I use in my company, and most of them need to modify loots of data and use loots of resources and I need constantly open/close few apps using them. And I need to switch sometimes to windows so its another bummer.

I had latest ubuntu before I installed LinuxLite and after work I normally spend maybe 2h using this netbook...
But because I cant turn off this password in LL, yesterday I spend almost 4 F@# hours because everytime I had to type this password... I was >.< this close from throwing my netbook from window and spending rest of my life tracking people who invented this amazing idea...


Uff... sorry for that post but after changing system and 200GB of data in weekend you can be annoyed like hell because of that...


So ADHD version: I want to turn off password prompt. Help. I tried everything that normally work.

This is my home town. My brother made the stone sculpture on the left. It's standing in front of the city hall.

1371 is the year our town was founded.

Here's some more of my brother's work.

It's a hard work.

Hello,

I need a holiday from Linux, as this is the correct way for me to learn, I have been having this lately.
Enjoying the distro.

Hi guys, Fredrik from Ikea land (sweden)

So just hit me up with a mail or something if you wondering about something.

Cheers

I've been on Linux Lite for a while now, Since I've had my Android Phone I've been connecting it to the computer and downloading pictures using Gthumb. Since an upgrade just after Christmas the phone is not showing, there used to be Volume showing at the bottom of the Home Folder sidepane that I used to click on to access the phone but its not there now, also if I try to use Gthumb to import from the device the source is greyed out, it doesn't even show my external hard drive, but if I use lsusb in the terminal it shows every USB device connected to the computer. So how do I get Volume back and what else do I need to do to access the phone?

Hi Folks,

New to Linux Lite and really like the distro!  I have tried a number of distros in the past several months and have really been impressed with many of them but Linux Lite is where I would like to settle.

I have tried to install the 64 bit on my HP laptop using the options for LVM and Encryption.  In doing so, the installer crashed several times with error.  It says: "Autopartitioning using LVM failed because an error occurred while creating the volume group."

The main question I have is if LVM and Encryption are supported with the distro.  If so, is there something I'm doing wrong?  Before each failed attempt I have run GParted and created a new partition table using my entire hard drive.  I have then formatted it to a FAT32 partition then ran the installer.  In using the same practice installing Mint 17 there were no glitches.

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated!!!!

Hi,

I've just installed LL 2.2 on an HP 6910p laptop.  When I play videos on Youtube or go to Google Inbox,the webpage will become unresponsive after a while and then the screen will go blank.  The only way I know to get the screen back on is to do a hard reset.  The video card in the laptop is an Intel X3100.  I have tried disabling the screen saver but this hasn't had any effect.

Has anyone else experienced this or know how to cure the problem. I have noticed that the screen flickers occasionally so I think it may be a driver problem. I am very new to  Linux so if any logs or versions that are needed then I will need some direction of where or how to find them

Thanks.

I have an 80GB external drive (usb connected). I figured I would use the backup in LL 2.2 to back-up my Home Folder.  It all seems fine, starts, then I get this message:

Permission denied when trying to create ‘/media/chris/259e8ba4-8c54-43ad-9dc0-2a1ed024910e/duplicity-full.20150103T150825Z.vol1.difftar.gz’.

I did some on-line research and found this:

http://askubuntu.com/questions/324705/fi...ion-denied

Which seems like an identical issue; so I used the commands given in this thread (with chris instead of "stacyjane") and still no dice, same message.  Any ideas?
