schönen nachmittag zusammen,
Seit ein paar Tagen habe ich die neue Linux Lite Version auf meinem PC,womit ich auch zufrieden bin bis auf
das drucken...kann weder korrekt ausdrucken noch Scans speichern. Es wird komischerweise nur im Miniformat ausgedruckt....
Woran könnte das liegen? Der Drucker (Canon TS 5050 series) ist über USB angeschlossen,nicht über Wlan.
Vorher druckte der Drucker normal aus (anderes Betriebssystem)
I switched from Lubuntu to Linux Lite 5.2 about 6 months ago and, barring one minor hiccup, it has been working perfectly for me. I read here about the improvements and additions in 5.4, but none of them seem important to me. Since all is well with my 5.2, is there any real reason to upgrade to 5.4?
And, am I correct in thinking that all the updates that I have done since starting with LL 5.2 still has me on 5.2, NOT 5.4?

I recently tried reviving an Old PC that we hadn't used before by installing Linux Lite on it. It's been functioning alright, but the wifi stability is absolutely bogus. There are times were it just gives up searching for other networks, disabling the use of wifi until I decide to reboot the PC, making it a huge pain in the neck. I am aware my computer's capabilities are limited, but I want to at least make it so It can maintain a healthy signal when connecting to the internet. The router doesn't appear to be the problem, as other devices from the same room as the PC can access it too? Is it the driver? The wifi card? The pc was from a long time ago, 2009 I think, so could this be a factor?
My Old PC specs:
Powered by Dual-Core Intel Pentium E5300

HP Pavilion Slimline
Running Linux 5.4

Having a great number rsynch images in timeshift seems to prevent lite tweaks from locating kernels safely removable. After trimming down the saved snapshot list in timeshift old kernels can removed with no problem.

I recently noticed a quirk with post update wifi connections which I believe is connected to timeshift and I think some users are attempting to solve it via network settings which have nothing to do with the quirk. I have three/four different LL 5.x installations and only one exhibits the loss of and inability to re-connect to a saved wifi connection after rebooting after updates and it is the one where timeshift is auto-scheduled. I don't use timeshift at all on the others. Also none of my connections are set to auto-connect. The quirk exhibits itself in the following ways:
The user runs updates normally and reboots the machine. The user selects the previous wifi connection that worked before and attempts to connect. The connection fails and after failing is no longer displayed in nm's connection list. Logging out and back in again does not make it reappear in the list. Editing the connection manually and saving it has no effect. All that works, I have discovered after experimenting a bit, is to log out to the login screen and then select shutdown and shut down the system. When booting again all will be normal. I do believe this is related to timeshift auto-scheduling usage and maybe a case where normal reboot code and systemd network management settings are not allowed to reset because of timeshift. As I have explained, logging out and shutting the system down after a normal update reboot alleviates the quirk.

I have been a Mint user for some years, but i found I could not use it on my original Toshiba laptop of some age, as it's cpu and ram was far too small. I read that Lite had had some success for those small laptops so, I downloaded it and Wow, My old Toshiba is working like a song. I'll be perusing the forum and will no doubt be in contact. C G
1) Along with the "system freezing" problem I have been having with 5.4, I also sometimes can't connect to the wifi I have been using for years. I have a modem in the room next to my office and I also have a hot spot on my desk, and sometimes LL will simply not connect to them.
(and occasionally LL will connect to the modem but still will not work)
2) Also - I have a TP-Link TL-WN725N usb adapter, and I don't think LL recognizes it.
This is a dual boot system, and Windows still connects to both easily and they both work well.
suggestions?
Hi there,
I need some help to set up my Epson et-2750 inkjet printer. It is connected to by PC via a usb cable.
I downloaded and installed the EPSON drivers and utility - the scanner works perfectly, but the printer doesn't.
When I use the menu setup, it sees the printer but I can't print the test page.
Wen I use the CUPS web interface - same problem.

Is this the problem? If so, how do I create lp0?
