  Default Keyring to unlock appears upon Boot Up
Posted by: thera - 08-05-2014, 04:25 AM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - Replies (1)

What is a Keyring?
How do I make it not appear first thing after boot up and the PC is on?
There is already a password for my wifi, why does it ask for another?

  Need help: Using my LinuxLite laptop in my presentation
Posted by: linuxNewbie - 08-04-2014, 08:42 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (5)

Greetings!

I really need to know how to use my Laptop to work with a Projector in my presentation this coming weekend. I think I have two options:

1. Learn how to make 'F10' (Lenovo G405's 2nd screen/projector) work with any projector.

2. Dual boot with windows Os
concerns:
    I need to preserve my current LInuxlite setup & files

Questions:
#1. Is there any known way to make linux works with any projector?

#2. How to restore previous Linuxlite system(not from dual boot system) to the new linuxlite installed in a dual boot system with windows?
    Whats the difficulty level on this task? Im completely newbie with Linux though I can work with its basic functionality - email, browse, create documents, presentations, etc... except for administration tasks - i,e backup, repair & troubleshooting, etc...

I look forward for any help. My report will be on August 9 and I need to decide while I can't afford to mess with my laptop this time.

Many thanks in advance.

  Linux Lite Wikipedia

To our Spanish speaking users, Albert Acero Acosta has started a Linux Lite Wikipedia page - http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Lite. Would love for people to help out populating the page, or even start to create an English page.

  [SOLVED] Oolite
Posted by: Norm - 08-04-2014, 09:49 AM - Forum: Games Support - Replies (1)

Oolite is inspired by the 8-bit classic Elite, and many aspects of gameplay will be familiar to players of that game. In the tradition of open-world games, there's no overall story: you can be a millionaire trader, a veteran combateer, a feared pirate, a lonely miner, a notorious smuggler, or all of them, or something else entirely, based on your own actions.

This game plays ridiculously well in LL with either a joystick or an xbox 360 controller. I dont know about just mouse and keyboard but some people play this game with just those.

http://www.oolite.org/download/

Enjoy

  Update+Upgrade broken by 404 errors
Posted by: Kirkx - 08-04-2014, 07:53 AM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (4)

The script behind Install Updates menu entry executes the following two commands:

Code:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
However, the execution of these commands is broken by 404 errors related to invalid repository addresses for Google Chrome and Google Talk:
[Image: yT6K4Sn.png]
As shown on the screenshot above, the Terminal window closes before the second command <sudo apt-get upgrade> is executed and the upgrades are never performed.

The solution is to uncheck both Google entries in the repository settings, which will allow the proper execution of both "update" and "upgrade" commands:

I assume that all this also affects the ability to download Google Chrome and Google Talk Plugin using Install Additional Software menu entry.

  Login black screen?
Posted by: Jarvis - 08-03-2014, 09:49 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (3)

So I had been using 2.0 for about three weeks or so and today I open my laptop and boot up. Everything was normal until I logged in... When I logged in I still had my cursor but nothing else loaded, it was just black. I have not made any big changes to my laptop since I started aside from fixing it so I could use my volume up and down buttons. I currently have it in command line and I am wanting to update all of its packages and have it install them but I don't know how and I am unsure if that is referred to in another thread.

I am running a stock acer c720 chromebook (minus the chrome part) I just need to find the update install script to see if updating will fix the issue.

Any help would be great.  ~Jarvis

  replace xscreensaver with light locker?
Posted by: skar - 08-03-2014, 09:32 PM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (3)

Hi all,

I found LL rock solid stable and faster than xubuntu where I did have a few problems (but not too bad at all). Xubuntu has light locker which locks my screen after I leave my laptop idle. It also shuts off the display. On the other hand LL does not lock screen. Also no matter how long the laptop is on, the screen is ON. It's blank but ON and it does not lock the screen. I think thats a major flaw in my opinion. I don't really care too much about how xscreensaver looks, but I think light locker does the job. I did google:"replace xscreensaver with light locker", but got nothing. Are there safe and tested steps to do this?

  Screen resolution pops up every time...
Posted by: tompa - 08-03-2014, 03:55 PM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - Replies (5)

Hi!

Having a problem on my HP-530 (works perfect on my other notebooks).
Every time I start the display from suspended or just pressing "display button" it shows the settings for the display, as it has discovered a new display every time.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks for an awesome distro! ...this is my only struggle so far Wink

  [SOLVED] Boot up takes 1 minute and 9 seconds on a fast SSD
Posted by: LenAsh - 08-03-2014, 03:07 PM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - Replies (17)

Hi - hopefully someone can decipher the bootchart log and tgz attached. I'm at a loss. I get 3 "COMRESET" errors about 10 seconds apart during boot. Shutdown takes about 1 second.

This is a "fast" system...

Windows boots in 8 seconds on another SSD.

Thanks!

EDIT: Fixed on any Linux distro. The problem was an "old" Intel 32GB SSD. This worked absolutely fine on W7, but any Linux didn't like it at all at boot. It had the latest firmware too, wgich was dated 2010. I've now removed it and binned it as I have no real need for this tiny drive.

Thanks for all help offered in any case.
