Just found Linux lite. Have old Toshiba Satellite pro A10 with 2 x 512mb Ram. that needs to keep working!! Trying linuxlite 1.08 as live CD.  Currently running puppy linux precise 5.7.1 frugal on it.

Still fumbling my way around Linux. Currently running Mint 13 on work laptop.

Well worth the learning curve to be free of rampant commercialisation in now what is becoming essential access to information - i.e the internet.  Also the improved security against viruses etc.

Good luck with the linuxlite project for a more straight forward and backwards compatible flavour of linux. 

I wanted to install the BleuFear theme and followed instruction from :https://github.com/maxfierke/bleufear:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:m4xm4n/bleufear && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install bleufear-theme

Showing but not working in Window Manager and messed up other themes. How do I uninstall it?

Hi my netbook doesn't have bluetooth but it always shows in panel at startup and I cannot seem to remove it.  Any help please.  Thanks in advance.

I have laptop with Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AG. When an access point is close both LL1.06 and Win7 (dual boot on this laptop) work OK. But I consistently find that for weaker signals Win7 will "pull it in" and I will have a usable WiFi connection. LL will say it's trying to get the ip address (both OS use DHCP not static) and if it does linkup the connection is much slower and often not usable, then I try Win7 and it works OK. Same laptop, same everything.

Note: I prefer wicp to mange the network connections vs. Network Manager, and use wicp with LL. I prefer wicp's interface immensely more then NM.

I wondered if there's and way for LL to equal Win7's more powerful settings(?) for the wifi? Thanks.

Hey everyone,
Just want to say, great os... it installed easily and ive been tinkering around with it and looking up online how to change (as I soon discovered) common tweaks... like adding the suspend command in the Dash Home.....nice.....
And just a while ago i also found this forum.... double nice.
So, just letting you all know i'm here to learn and, eventually, to help.

I'm trying to get Warcraft II to work... I installed it, and read in Wine what to do for the game... don't really quite get it though.
Anyways, map editor works, and when i was making a map and selected to preview the map in actual game mode... it said something about 256 colors... I haven't figured out what LL runs on, but from messing around in the Image Editor, I noticed it has alot more than 256 colors....
....In Conclusion, 
How can i temporarily change the color display to play a game??

I having trouble with i guess drivers, i have a new wireless Adapter. and it vill not work in LL i tryedit on 3 diffrent computers with Linux lite,  but goes fine in win and on a Manjaro computer  Manjaro is Arch kan i take a driver from that system or how can i get a working driver for Linux lite. I have tryed 1.06 and 1.08
It seems to me that ZyXel have changed the adapter i had one same but older ca 2 years that one goes fine in LL but i gave it to a friend and got my self a new that dont works. the reseller gave me another one but the same problem.

After looking at lots of ant-virus packages I'm homing in on Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux. I'm using an email package under Wine (as I've 10s of 1,000s of email that I use for reference). So I feel I must protect friends and colleagues by not passing on Windows viruses.

System Information shows Linux Lite kernel at 3.8.0.34

Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux version 9.x Recommended supports Ubuntu 12.04 LTS but stops at kernel linux-image-3.5.0-48-generic_3.5.0-48.72

Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux version 9.x Preview supports Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with kernels linux-image-3.8.0-33-generic_3.8.0-33.48 and linux-image-3.8.0-35-generic_3.8.0-35.52 but not 3.8.0.34

Is anyone running Sophos Anti-Virus successfully on the Preview version? If so, is that Recommended or Preview.

Hi

I'm struggling with the small text on my screen but cannot change the screen resolution.

When I go to Menu \ Settings \ Display then on the Display dialog there is Default set at 1280x1024, refresh rate 0.0 Hz, rotation: Normal and reflection: none. But on the all the drop down menus there are no other choices for any of these. Also there is no button to add another profile.

xrandr shows

xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 1280 x 1024, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 1280 x 1024
default connected 1280x1024+0+0 0mm x 0mm
  1280x1024      0.0*

Then
xrandr --size 1024x768
shows
Size 1024x768 not found in available modes

Suggestions please.

PS At the moment I'm using a standard square screen but once I'm fully running on Linux then i'll be using my landscape screen. This square screen is using a vga cable as I don't have a spare DVI cable.
