On start-up I get the following messages, they repeat if i restart:

and.




I don't remember modifying anything...but who knows? Why doesn't the OS just fix the problem? If not what do I do?

Being used to Windows i ran a virus check:




They all seem to be associated with Wine:




I am really not sure if they have anything to do with the error message.

Thanks for your help

I decided to bring this over from my introduction thread to see if I can't get some more help.

I installed Linux Lite 2.0 a few days ago.  I tried a couple other distros in the past with little success.  (I don't like the terminal.)  I'm having a couple issues with LL with the major one being the taskbar.  I like to auto hide it so I can see the entire window I'm working in.  The problem is that it won't stay auto hidden.  It'll stay auto hidden for anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours but eventually, it will stay hidden, no matter what I do.  I've tried as many different combinations of options within the panel preferences as there are with little luck.  If I reboot, I get the auto hide function working again.

At this point, I'm pretty well frustrated and ready to revert to Windows.  I hope someone can help me figure this out.

Hello from Staffordshire Just downloaded lite 2 to my samsung netbook its like having a new machine,

I just installed Wine and was able to play a Windows (.exe file) game (nothing big).  When I exited the game, I found that the desktop resolution had changed (would have been good had I been 50 feet away ) and I couldn't access the taskbar.  I had to reboot to get back to normal.  What would have caused this and how can I avoid it in the future?  I have a few things I'd like to run using Wine.

Thanks!

Any ideas guys

Still using LL 2.0 and having no problems. Have not been posting but reading posts mostly from notices from RSS feed. 

Hi!

It's my first time using linux and I know nothing about driver installing.

I have an issue with the display resolution (it gives me no video options) and just found out there's actually an incompatibility between some Ubuntu-based distros and the SiS Graphic Cards, specially the 771/671 version.

For some versions of Ubuntu I found the support, but simply couldn't understand it!!!

Does anyone knows if Linux Lite 2.0 has any kind of bug fix, update or anything that could be done to install this SiS graphic card driver?
And, if so, would anyone please try to explain it in a way that a linux begginer completely dummy could understand? =D

Thanks a lot!
Sorry for the bad english..

My computer is a 2.8 GHz Pentium 4 desktop with 2GB ram, model HP t741.uk.  I installed LL 1.0.8 earlier this year, dual booting with Windows XP, and it worked very well.

I recently installed LL 2.0 as a clean install, without the Windows dual boot.  The system has now become very slow.  There is a time lag between keyboard input and text appearing on the screen; the mouse pointer does not move smoothly, there is a time lag when scrolling, etc.

I have used the same install disk to put LL 2.0 on another old PC (Dell) with a similar spec, but only 1 GB of ram, and it works perfectly well.  I have also tried a clean install of Peppermint 5 on the HP machine and experienced the same problems as with LL 2.0.

I'm no expert, but I suspect that the problem may be caused by the BIOS.  The machine originally had a recovery partition.  The HP website says that only BIOS updates from HP, rather than the motherboard manufacturer, should be installed, but they only provide BIOS software for Windows operating systems.  The recovery partition was deleted when I installed LL 2.0.

A  system report is attached.

Can anybody help, please?
