I upgraded LL5.4 to LL5.6 through the built-in Lite Upgrade utility. Following the upgrade, the display resolution has gone down to 1024x768 @ 76Hz on its own!
How to resolve this i.e., how to restore display back to original resolution (do not remember the value :dft001.
The motherboard is MSI Z590-A-PRO, 32MBGB RAM, Processor is Intel® Core™ i7-10700 Processor (16M Cache, up to 4.80 GHz), Graphics card is ASUS GT710-SL-2GD5-BRK, and the Display is ASUS VG248QE.
Please help. Thank you.

Update (Sep 08, 2021):
I could resolve the issue by "clean" reinstalling Linux Lite 5.6 on the same disk. Now the display shows correct resolution and the system is working fine.

Update (Oct 31, 2021):

1] I did a fresh (clean) install of Linux Lite 5.6 after some upgrade to the hardware. The OS worked well with the correct screen resolution until today, when, on its own, it started with a low (1024 x 768 @ 76Hz) screen resolution! The driver check under Additional Driver shows the required NVIDIA driver (screenshot attached) as available, but every option to select is greyed out. And "Continue using a manually installed driver" is forced.
How can I change the driver to enable correct graphics resolution?
The hardware details -
Motherboard GIGABYTE Z590 UD (F5); Processor Intel Core i9-11900 @ 2.5GHz; RAM 32GB (2x16GB) Corsair CMK16GX4M1E3200C16; Graphics Card GP108 (ASUS GEFORCE GT 1030).

2] There is no option for Ethernet (wired) internet connection. Only WiFi connection available. Hence unable to use LAN option. The OS only recognizes the WiFi connection.

3] The OS does not maintain the correct time. I have to manually correct the time after each login.

Please help. I am tired of doing a clean reinstall of the OS! And, please note, I am only an ordinary computer user with no knowledge of software & hardware beyond the basics.

Thank you.

Update-1 (Oct 31, 2021):

I ran "sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall" followed by a reboot, and the graphics problem resolved itself.

The Ethernet and Time issues however remain to be resolved. All help to resolve these two issues is greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Update-2 (Nov 07, 2021):

The video problem seems to have been resolved. Apparently  "sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall" did the trick.

The Time related problem also seems to have been resolved. The website "https://itsfoss.com/wrong-time-dual-boot/" was helpful in resolving the issue.

The Ethernet related issue remains to be resolved.

And, a new problem has cropped up - My HP printer Deskjet Ink Advantage 4675, which until recently was working fine under Linux Lite 5.6, suddenly stopped working with a message something like "Unable to communicate with printer". Have attempted nearly every suggestion, including HP printer driver related, available in the various Forums/Support sites, but no success. The printer is connected to the Desktop through USB, and is correctly detected by the OS! Even the Wi-Fi mode does not work.

Will continue to search for a solution to the remaining two issues, and will post details once the issues have been resolved.

Until then, appreciate any/all help from anyone of you.

Thank you.

https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/Smile...msorry.gif, por lo extenso de mi post, pero necesito la info al respecto ya que voy intentando varias veces y a mi edad ya no puedo esperar más y no encontré un tuto de como hacerlo.
Esta es mi máquina y de acuerdo con  lo que leí, debiera andar sin tropezones

        Desde Linux (cuando pueda instalarlo ¿podré ver todos mis archivos?)
9.- Cargué pendrive Kingston 32GB con Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS amd64,      copiado con Rufus con su configuración por defecto.
Por primera vez se cargó el inicio (solo sin tocar nada), y cuando intenté probar algún comando en el escritorio, se colgó con lineas de puntos  verticales multicolor(¿placa de video?). Previamente, Ubuntu había revisado el USB y no dió error así que siguió solo, hasta el error.
Opté por entrar en Windows y desde el block de notas escribo lo que pueden leer. Antes había probado con Zorin, y Linux Lite 5.6; solo conseguí ver todos los comandos del inicio de la instalación, sólo texto, (¿?) y se clavaba hasta apagarla y prenderla de nuevo y seguir igual. Para el pendrive usé Balena Etcher con la misma config actual. y nunca pude ver el inicio de ninguno. ¿Qué estoy haciendo mal?, porque algo hay que me falta y falla. Primero: tengo que formatear el SSD-m.2 donde lo instalaria?
Me podrían guiar de alguna forma que me ayude.
Desde ya, infinitas gracias, estoy con muchas ganas de probar alguna distro de LINUX y sobre todo LinuxLite, y  quedo con las ganas.
Cordialmente, desde Argentina un gran saludo virtual.

I found it once but I am having trouble finding it again. Where do I go to change how application launchers are displayed in the menu where they display the name and not the category + comment?

I am trying to install Linux Lite to the free space of my 850 EVO SSD inside a Dell Latitude D830, while keeping Windows 10 for now. When i try to do this the Linux Lite installer labels the free space as "unusable". When i select the free space i am given no options other than Revert, which does nothing. Can i install Linux Lite on the free space?

Hi all,
Does anyone have some experience in using Softmaker FreeOffice (SFO) on LL?
I would prefere to use SFO instead of LibreOffice as it handle better the formatting of Microsoft Office documents.

Okay, i'll admit to being brand new to Linux Lite...but I downloaded 6.5 a few days ago to replace the OS in my HP All-in-one (terabyte drive, 4G Ram, plenty of room for this distro and then some) and so far it's been smooth sailing.

  However, I really don't like surfing the Internet without protection-and while Firefox with full 'don't track me' commands, 'dump cookies after every session' commands and Ghostery add-on affords some protection, i'd really like a decent anti-virus. I downloaded Bleachbit for a decent utility and i've got Clamtk as well-but both of them seem to be manually-triggered and therefore either unable to continuously scan while surfing.

  Is there a way to set either to both start upon Boot and to set to continuous scan? The Online Manual has a vague reference to the Start Menu but not enough detail for my need on this. I'm sure that I have the resources to spare. Failing that, does Linux have an 'Active Scan' anti-virus to download?  Note: I am inexperienced with Command line but not terrified of it, so if you have a Command-line solution I can Cut-n-Paste with the best of them... :022:

  Any help and advice would be appreciated-I understand that there is a certain 'security in obscurity' with Linux, but i'm not relying on it. Other than this tiny bit of paranoid anxiety i'm having a blast with this system so far...i'm a casual user who has stuck with GUI-heavy Linux OS so due to an honest lack of time-my first OS was Fedora Core 1 (I used one YUM command to load APT, one APT command to load Synaptic and GUI'ed  my way from there  :007: ) I have run Clam weekly on every Linux OS i've ever used and been very lucky so far-but i'd rather be impregnable, yes?

  Love the website BTW.

Hello!

Right now my task bar of my Linux Lite 5.2 System looks like this:



Left are the starters ... and when I open a program, a window button appears on the right.

So, I do have most Icons double ... one as starter ... one as window button.

Is there a costumization to have the starter icons be the window buttons at the same time?
Like in Windows 10 or MacOS?

Or do i need to install another desktop for that?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Greetings from Germany!

I installed LL today But after few hours , while booting screen goes black , no cursor showing but only black screen.
This also happened previously when I installed Linux Mint and i can't fixed it back then .
I tried changing 'quiet splash' to 'nomodeset' in grub but then I can't able to change my brightness in LL.
I guess it is some problem with my amd radeon vega graphic card.
Please help me I'm stuck :012:
(sorry for my poor english)
