  "Linux Lite 2.0 Updates" vs. "Software Updater"
Posted by: Coastie - 06-23-2014, 04:00 AM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (11)

I am familiar with the "Linux Lite Updates" or "Install Updates" that runs in the terminal from previous editions of Linux Lite.  This edition (2.0) has a "Software Updater" which either I did not notice before or was not in the previous editions. It appears to just use PPA's from Ubuntu but will let you add other PPA's.

Could the PPA(s) from Linux Lite be added to it for an automatic updater?

Hi all, by accident I deleted the wifi icon in the taskbar,  :-[  now I cannot get it back. I searched in the start menu but I don't see how to enable this setting to show again any ideas?

Thanks

  Installing LinuxLite 2.0 on a fresh harddrive
Posted by: T1125P - 06-22-2014, 07:25 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (2)

Hi, all new to this forum, but I had LinuxLite 1.0.6 for a while now and I love it. Now I want to install 2.0 on my Netbook. So what I did was take out my harddrive from my netbook its a 360GB SSD, and plugged it into my PC and formatted it using Windows 7 disk management to fully erase it. Now it's NTFS. So the problem now is, when I put my harddrive back in my netbook, used the liveusb to install 2.0 it gives me the error unknown filesystem. The drive is completely erased, is there a way maybe I have to format it to ext4 in Windows using a program that will let me?  :-\ All I want is LinuxLite on my netbook as the sole OS nothing else.

Thanks all  Smile

  Problem reading NAS files
Posted by: Thicksilver - 06-22-2014, 06:28 PM - Forum: Network - Replies (3)

Hi All

A pleasure to meet you.

Never been on a forum before and my linux/unix experience stretches all the way back to yesterday so sorry if I am having trouble with the blindingly obvious. I'm also an old guy and the the jargon and TLAS'a are a bit of a stretch at times so I crave your collective indulgence. I've been back throgh the archive for the last year with no similar problems which gives me some confidence I am just missing something simple (who said a brain?) which smarter people just fix.

To horse so to speak. I loaded Linux Lite yesterday onto an old Samsung N140 notebooke after speaking to the village evangelist (for LL) and it was a breeze. Much faster than W7 for start-up, the internet and all the things you already know better than me.

I keep all my data on a D-Link 323 NSA (Raid 1)so I hooked up following the instructions on the site. No problem so far. In use the device is recognised and I can access the NSA and navigate the file structure.

If I try to load a JPG by clicking on it or opening using using image viewer I get no error message but also no picture. If I do the same using GIMP I can see the thumbnail but get an error message which tells me that the folder and file don't exist and the thumbnail is out of date. If I navigate to the same picture from within image viewer I can view it. No joy with GIMP though. With documents I can't get anywhere. Libreoffice loads and then vanishes whichever way I come at it. Most of the documents, some .odt some .doc were created using open office. I copied a document to the laptop and Libreoffice opened it fine. I have had some limited joy with PDF's. Sorry about the bad language but my Windows computers access all of the files with no trouble so it is not a data corruption problem.

I would really appreciate a nudge in the right direction.

Sorry to a be a bit long winded but we wrinklies never know when to stop....

Hey all

Been using LL for a few days, it's great.

No bloat, nice and smooth and not buggy.

Which is what i wanted after 14.04LTS and the not so good software centre.

I'll be staying with this distro. 8)

  Linux Lite won't let me install *any* software
Posted by: markmayhew - 06-21-2014, 09:12 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (16)

Am I the only person who can't download any software to my installation of Linux lite? I just want to install Google Chrome but it won't let me, nor can I install any other programs.

I noticed that if you edit the menus applications and click restore it adds an extra empty Internet menu. Also it is adding programs that I have uninstalled, how do I fix this.

I was trying to clear the annoying Skype icon from the notification area (near keyboard and battery monitor icons) and inadvertently deleted the volume control icon. I can't find any way to restore it to the panel. Can anyone help me with this?  Thanks
