  2.0 Beta Lookin' Good
Posted by: cactusneedle - 05-18-2014, 07:14 PM - Forum: Suggestions and Feedback - Replies (2)

Just downloaded and took a look at Lite 2.0 Beta and it looks and works faultlessly (and fast).  Glad to see it's based on 14.04 LTS "Trusty" so will be supported for quite a while.  I still have Lite 12.04 LTS on two desktops but when I find time to upgrade to this newer version I'll definitely do so.  Still no boot up on my old non-pae laptop (Pentium M) so will have to pass on that one until I replace the CPU.  How do you get so many good things packed into 699 MB??  Mystery of the ages.  Cactusneedle in Arizona, USA

  Syslog not logging, iptables not being restored at boot
Posted by: nutrobion - 05-18-2014, 05:28 AM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (7)

Hi,
I am new to this OS.
I have a fresh installation of Linux Lite v2.0. The logging function in /var/log/syslog is not working--in fact, most of the logs show 0 bytes, despite me getting acquainted with the OS all day long.
I use iptables and depend on syslog to monitor network activity. Is there some configuration I must apply to enable logging?
Also, my iptables configuration is not being restored at boot-up from /etc/iptables.rules. I am following the same steps that always work on Ubuntu--placing the restore command as a pre-up instruction in /etc/network/interfaces. It would be nice if I didn't have to retype the iptables rules after each login! Does anyone know where I should put this command?
Thanks in advance.

Clicking the icons do nothing as the software is no longer there i would just like to delete the icons as well as the software.
Thanks in advance for any help.

  Linux Lite 2.0 Beta - Language Support
Posted by: Scott(0) - 05-17-2014, 05:25 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (1)

Some people had concerns about UK locale support:

Quote:Is there a fix in 2.0 for the "Locale Change" issue...
    Changing the locale to "English UK" causes the main menu items names for "Install Updates" & "Help Manual" to change.?

Did a virtualbox test on this using Lite 2.0 Beta 32bit. I'm in the states so I'm not exactly sure what to look for after the change to UK locale. The only change I noticed was "trash" changed to "rubbish" in the file manager. I didn't notice any main menu item changes for "install updates" or "help manual."

Here's what I changed:
language support > language tab > drag English (United Kingtom) to top of list
language support > regional formats > change "display numbers, dates, currency ... " field to English (UK)
apply system-wide

Did I do this correctly? If there's anything else I can test let me know.

  Lite 2.0 beta live cd - Error, "unable to find or create trash directory"
Posted by: Scott(0) - 05-17-2014, 03:44 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - No Replies

Listing all comments under the 2.0 beta announcement post gets difficult to follow. Posting this here to separate issues.

While using the Lite 2 beta live cd you will probably get an error "unable to find or create trash directory" when attempting to delete files (not folders).

Workaround solution
> terminal - deleting from the terminal works fine
> copy to a folder first - folders can be deleted without an error

Haven't tried this on an actual install yet but would be willing to bet it's not a problem.

  Start up Question
Posted by: moark - 05-16-2014, 03:35 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (4)

Good Morning,

New user - I am using Virtualbox and running 32bit.  Linux Lite is awesome, every thing just works, even my HP Scanner/Printer. 
The one question I have is on start up choices.  It highlights Previous Linux and above that is Generic or something ( I should have written down the exact choices) so curious as to which to select.

I just wanted to say, I haven't been using lite for to long, but I keep it in my disc collection.  I just have to say that I love the new 2.0, I'm running it in a virtual machine and so far it is the best version of Lite I have used!  Thanks for the great work guys!!!!
