  Where to download higan games
Posted by: derek22 - 06-01-2024, 03:24 PM - Forum: Games Support - Replies (1)

I just installed higan for LL 6.6 and I had trouble finding games for it.  I searched higan's tutorial and followed the directions: it said to select Library drop down box, then press Load ROM, I did this and my home directory came up.  I searched all the files and couldn't find any .zip files for games.  Do i need to download the games from a website?

  Clementine not working
Posted by: derek22 - 06-01-2024, 01:48 PM - Forum: Sound - No Replies

I installed clementine and tried to play music and this came up: "Your GStreamer installation is missing a plug-in."
I followed the directions from the last post asking where to get plugins for clementine and it said to install Restricted Extras...then i tried clementine again and it still said the same thing; plus, after i installed Restricted Extras it crashed and continued to crash every time i started google chrome.  So i had to reinstall Linux Lite 6.6.
Thanks for your time.

How do I know if my Windows PC has UEFI?

In Windows Search, type msinfo or msinfo32 and launch the desktop app named System Information. Look for the BIOS Mode item, and if the value for it is UEFI, then you have the UEFI firmware. If it says BIOS Mode Legacy, then that’s the firmware you’re running.

Secure Boot is supported, but unless you know exactly how to handle it, it is a P.I.T.A. at best so I am going to say...you must disable Secure Boot to enable stress free computing.

Some helpful snippets from the latest Help Manual:

Size: 2.7Gb (DVD, USB)

Live USB/DVD/VirtualBox/Vmware:

Login is automatic, no credentials are required. The image can be written to a 4gb or larger USB stick, or a writable DVD. Alternatively, you can use the dd command: sudo dd if=linux-lite-7.0-64bit.iso of=/dev/sdx bs=4M where 'x' is the letter of your usb stick. In linux to find out the letter of your usb stick, open a terminal and type: df -h It is usually listed as 'media' or similar. Please see the built in Help Manual if you require a more detailed explanation of this procedure.

A good, simple point and click USB ISO burner is https://www.balena.io/etcher/ or https://rufus.ie/
In our testing, Etcher and Rufus (for Windows only) have proven to be the most reliable. Etcher is available for Mac, Windows & Linux.

If the screen locks during Live mode, type linux into the user box and click on the Login button (no password required)

Minimum Recommended Specs:
1Ghz processor
768mb ram
8gb HDD/SD
VGA screen capable of 1024x768 resolution
DVD drive or USB port for the ISO image

Preferred Specs:
1.5GHz processor+
1024mb ram+
20gb HDD/SSD+
VGA, DVI or HDMI screen capable of 1366x768 resolution+
DVD drive or USB port for the ISO image

Login to the live desktop is automatic.

The first thing you MUST do after a fresh install of Linux Lite is run Menu, Favorites, Install Updates.



Thank you

Jerry and the team.

  FYI Chrome
Posted by: trinidad - 05-31-2024, 03:05 PM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (5)

What you might not know about Chrome in Linux Lite. Linux Lite uses the newest version of Chrome i/e security updates from the Chrome devs are immediate, while with some other distros like like Mint, RHEL, or even Debian, Chrome updates can lag for awhile. Chrome just dropped a security update yesterday which Linux Lite 7 received immediately. I haven't checked, but with MS Edge I'm not sure this is true unless you run the dev version. Many users support using other browser alternatives like Brave or Vivaldi because they believe they are more secure when in fact you can harden Chrome with privacy settings probably more than any other browser and those alternatives often lag behind with general security updates because they are usually discovered by the Chrome devs. I don't see any actual system security reason to use another browser. All TOR does is put you on the map for government security and privacy invasions. The ONLY reason I use Firefox is because I can run BASH scripts from html documents more easily which in fact is less secure.
