  Enable Auto Login doesn't work
Posted by: george79 - 02-16-2022, 09:06 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (2)

I've been trying to enable auto login for hours and it doesn't seem to work.
I perform all steps needed to enable auto login by clicking SYSTEM=>LOGIN SETTINGS=>ENABLE AUTO LOGIN and I get the positive confirmation at the end.
After restart I can see the login screen again. I tried to reinstall lightdm packgace but it didn't help.
Is there a place - the config file - where I can set this manually? How to check if the ENABLE AUTO LOGIN option is realy on or off?

  Using it installing Moodle app
Posted by: JanetBiggar - 02-14-2022, 11:58 AM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (2)

Hello,
I did a quick search and didn’t find any previous posts on Moodle, but found this on a google search:
https://moodle.com/news/moodle-desktop-n...cos-linux/

I will pursue this later today with an older laptop I have running Linus lite 5.0 and another fine running LL 3.8.  In the meantime I wondered if more knowledgeable members might have any experience, comments or advice.

Here’s a bit about it and I’m wondering if the desktop is really what my students need and can use:

“In line with our commitment to making Moodle accessible to all our global users who using various operating systems and devices, we are happy to be making Moodle Desktop available for other versions of Windows, macOS and Linux,” said Juan.

“Users of Moodle Desktop can access all the functionalities and experience the same look and feel as with the Moodle Mobile app.”

“This means learners, students, administrators, trainers and educators, of any kind, can still easily access course content and download materials for offline, engage in activities such as quizzes, get notifications, view work and learning progress through the dashboard and much more.”

You can view the compatibility specifications for Moodle Desktop and download it via Moodle downloads.


Basically my situation currently is that the students in my study group in South Africa have older laptops I’ve set up with LL and study material. Three of them have been accepted at universities and until they or I manage to get windows based laptops for their study they will use these current ones in the interim (although I’d love if the LL OS manages to do all they require as I LOVE LL it has proved to be priceless for me causing few if any headaches like other OSs!).

Another question - which I will investigate and play with later too - can the students access outlook (Microsoft 365) on a laptop running LL?  I believe this second question is a basic question, but I have just been asked these questions and haven’t had a chance to look into it yet.

Thanks in advance,
Janet

  Unable to connect to bluetooth devices
Posted by: chubby - 02-13-2022, 09:18 PM - Forum: Network - No Replies

I'm new to Linux Lite and Linux operating systems as a whole so apologies if the solution is obvious, I have looked up my problem and couldn't find anything helpful.

When I turn on bluetooth and try to connect to my headphones or speaker, nothing appears as a connectable device in the bluetooth device setup assistant. I have the "Broadcom Corp. BCM43142A0 Bluetooth 4.0" chipset, not sure if I have up to date drivers, nor do I know where to find them.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

  User CESMITH0215 introduction
Posted by: cesmith0215 - 02-13-2022, 05:55 AM - Forum: Introductions - Replies (1)

I am attempting to salvage a very old laptop computer for myriad tasks and internet browsing. My laptop is a COMPAQ Presario V2000. (Model V2570NR) I've maxed out the RAM, (2 GB). It was running windows 7 up until I loaded Linuxliteos 5.4. I've since upgraded to Linuxliteos 5.8. I am terribly new to Linux, and have spent a great deal of time searching on line for different things related to Linux and the problems I have faced. I've searched the linuxliteos.com/forums often failing miserably in finding solutions, so this should let you know that I'm fighting an uphill battle.

Considering that I cut my PC teeth using PCDos, you would think I could adjust, but I've evidently been in a Windows environment long enough that retaining terminal command is difficult. I'm in the process of finding and reading books about the Ubuntu kernal and its variations.  I'm sure you'll all be shaking your heads at the questions I raise, but please bear with me as I learn to use this system. I've got a couple of other PCs, also old, that I think may be able to run this OS once I've learned it.

I hope we have a long and beneficial relationship.

Chuck

  How can i see Linux 5 series Updates in terminal
Posted by: slivo59 - 02-12-2022, 04:34 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (3)

Linux lite versions 3 and 4, allowed me to see how an update was progressing in a terminal.
Linux lite version 5, tells me what it will update, then disappears for what seems a long time and then finally says what it has updated.
I would like to see what it is doing real time, as it is doing it.
is there a way to do this.?
