  Linux Lite 1.0.8 and Bash Vulnerability
Posted by: dby - 09-27-2014, 12:53 PM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (2)

Hello everyone, my first time posting.

I'm currently running Linux Lite 1.0.8 and as its performed faultlessly on my ageing former XP machine I haven't yet upgraded to 2.0. However, with the recent Shellshock bug being reported I've installed system updates and updated the Bash.

Having done that, I've run the tests recommended here: https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/index...opic=925.0 and the second still returns 'Vulnerable'. My question is threefold: is this a problem to be concerned with, is there likely to be a fix, or am I better off upgrading to 2.0?

I look forward to seeing any suggestions.

  several bugs, change passwd fixed everything
Posted by: wenomeno - 09-27-2014, 09:50 AM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (1)

Hi,

after installation I had several problems:

- password was not properly set, so it didn´t work
- screen resolution was stuck at 640x480

I accessed grub and changed there my password and at reboot everything was magically set up, even screen resolution  :o  Tongue

I find it strange and worth sharing

nice distro by the way, I´m free of Windows Vista now

  New Install Advice (update included)
Posted by: ChrisL - 09-26-2014, 11:54 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (5)

My "vehicle" is 32 bit Windows XP, Celeron 3.2?Ghz, 1G Ram, I think the kicker is the graphics card GeForce FX5200.  There seems to be some question if this card is compatible with the new release 2.0 LL or if I have to use an older release. 

So, that is question #1 I guess:

1) What release ... (would prefer the latest if it will support the drivers which are the nvidia 173.xx for this card)?
2) The manual suggests I get advice for the set-up I would like.  I have XP on one small (40G hard drive) which is good enough for what little I do on it, and would like to install Linux Lite on a second clean Hard Drive that is 120G, and would like to dual boot.  Best way to do so?

Your help is much appreciated.  Thank you.

Chris

  What media player do LL2-users use for downloading & playing podcasts?
Posted by: m654321 - 09-26-2014, 08:04 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (11)

As far as I'm aware I can't usethe VLC media player (that comes with the LL2 software bundle) for downloading & playing radio podcasts (or can I?).

I did some experimentation and found 'Clementine 123', which is v.popular, not to work very well with LL2 - the preset sound setting is too low.

What media player do forum members recommend for LL2? Any suggestions for LL2?

Regards
Mike

  Feather Splash Screen Missing
Posted by: sonic - 09-26-2014, 06:32 PM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - Replies (2)

I installed yesterday LL 2.0 32-bit at a TOSHIBA Laptop. Everything works except the boot splash screen, the one with the feather and the progress bar. After the first reboot it didn't changed, but when I shutdown it and power up, it's replaced by the Ubuntu 14.04 one with the dots. I didn't changed anything, I installed updates after the installation. Any idea?

Thanks in advance.
