Trying to manage my mom's Linux Lite desktop remotely from my Win10 desktop. I installed Anydesk and I can access her screen remotely if the screen is unlocked. I.e., no screensaver enabled, just "display off" after 5 minutes of inactivity, using the power settings.

I don't want to leave her PC unprotected, however. So instead of powering off the display, I enabled a "black" screensaver after 5 minutes and "locking" after 1 minute.

Problem is in this state, when I try to access her display remotely, Anydesk sees her machine is online, but when I connect it hangs on "waiting for image". I can't interact with her login screen.

I don't think it's an Anydesk issue, because I have another family member running Ubuntu 18.04 and I can see that lock screen and remotely log in.

Any tips or work-arounds would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Hi, guys,
I have an HP desktop, Audio HDA-Intel with dual boot windows 10 and Linux Lite (Ubuntu 20.04.2) on it. I have a Bluetooth dongle (Cambridge Silicone Radio) that doesn't work here on Linux-Lite. Windows 10 just gives it a generic brand in the drivers section, and it works. How can I get this Bluetooth dongle to work? The Bluetooth manager doesn't even come up. I can see it when I type in "lsusb" in the terminal.*Bluetooth works with a different dongle, but it's this particular one, the Cambridge Silicone dongle, that doesn't seem to be recognized by bluetooth. I'm making due at the moment with the one that works, but I might need to give it up to another computer.

I am trying to install the Whatsapp desktop client using Wine.
I get a message saying I need to install the .NET framework, and when I click on install it just shows an error.

Anyone have success installing and using the Whatsapp desktop client?

I know there is a Whatsapp web client in chrome, but that doesn't allow making video calls through the laptop.

Hi all,
Apologies if this is something that is covered somewhere - if it is, please point me towards it. I'm fairly new to Linux. Installed Linux on my HP Stream 14 (fairly bad laptop so looking to breathe some new life into it lol)

Performed a clean install of Linux lite 5.4 and was greeted by this upon login. Before login it's completely fine. Install was fine too. Booting off USB has the same result and for some reason it won't let me into safe mode, it just hangs.

Hey people,

I'm new here, I installed linux lite because I was looking for a light and simple look OS. It also made my PC faster and that was great. But a few weeks later i was having some disk usage problems when i was using it. I have double boot with windows.

My main problem with the disk usage is the % usage of the disk. Sometimes the % of disk shoot out to 100% just by executing some command, like opening the browser, or running some programs like matlab. I have checked the RAM usage with the task manager and there is no 100% RAM usage problem (I normally use around 60-70% RAM), and the hard drive I have is very pretty new.

When I get the % disk usage problem, i used iotop to know what was happening in the disk, I found that the last program that I have run appears using 99% of the disk, as well as other programs that had been running without problems. So several processes appear using 99% of the disk, which ends up blocking my computer and with no other choice but to use REISUB or simply the power button(sometimes REISUB doesn't work either ).

Has anybody present this same problem? and what should i do to fix it?  :'(

my thanks to the one who gives me some indication on what to do  ;D

Hello everyone, I am new to the world of Linux in a serious capacity. I have used Linux briefly in the past, but only ever as something to play around with.

Over the past few years I have been using a combination of windows and mac for both work and entertainment, but every time an update or new version was released I have been greatly disappointed. I have turned back to Linux to recapture the golden days of computing with a group of like-mind people, and I am looking forward to using this platform to its full extent!

Nice to meet you all!

Hello everyone from Siberia.
How do you feel about adopting the Xfce ClassicLooks theme into the LinuxLite distribution?

¡Hola a todos!  :55:

Mientras revisaba mi "feed" de noticias, me tope con este artículo https://www.linuxadictos.com/como-afecta...linux.html
Y me pareció que sería una buena idea compartir acá en el foro  :55:



En resumen, muchos equipos que actualmente usan W10, no podrán actualizar a W11, a menos que cumplan ciertos requisitos que por demás está decir, son un tanto exigentes. Otra razón más para cambiarse a Linux.  :55:
