Was just unable to update the OS (Light 4. 8) . Assuming this is a temporary thing? Here is the log:

After getting Linux 5.0 to update successfully my GRUB menu looks like this, but only the first 2 lines and last 2 lines run the machine.
I don't want to break my system while I am trying to learn Linux. I still need Windows to run some of my applications, but my older laptop certainly runs Linux much faster and works great for the virtual classes I'm doing right now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

*Ubuntu                                                        When selected boots into Linux 5.0 updated normally
  Advanced options for Ubuntu                          Opens options normally
  Windows Boot Manager (on /dev/sda1)            Tries to boot Windows, but ends at blue Windows error boot recovery options screen
  Linux Lite 4.8 (18.04) (on /dev/sda4)              Goes to logon screen, but won't open, just keeps returning to logon screen after P/W
  Advanced options for Linux Lite 4.8 (18.04) (on /dev/sda4)    Same as above on all options
  Linux Lite 5.0 (20.04) (on /dev/sda7)              Goes to logon screen, but won't open, just keeps returning to logon screen after P/W
  Advanced options for Linux Lite 5.0 (20.04) (on /dev/sda7)    Same as above on all options
  Windows Boot Manager  (on  /dev/sbd1)            Boots Windows normally
  UEFI Firmware Settings                                    Opens BIOS settings normally

Only use MKUSB. Sardu, Multiboot and others are not suitable eg Multiboot will report completion, but the stick may not boot.

Only use a good, fast USB 3.0 stick my preferred Sandisk 16Gb less than $10.

For some reason or other MKUSB faulted out with me with error '/dev/sda3' could not be mounted. Poweroff and cold boot for dus-persistent to make persistent live drives again!'  I found the method that worked was using MKUSB-PLUG, I still got error, but the stick works.

Sandisk USB boots fast, and Lite provides an excellent bunch of utilities/applications that should satisfy anyones needs.

Hi, I am a linux newbie. I was switching between workspaces in linux lite 5.2. I generally do that by Ctrl+Alt+Right/Left Arrow Keys but this time I was pressing Ctrl+F1/F2. By mistake I pressed Ctrl+Shift+F1 or Ctrl+Shift+F2. A window opened with black screen that reads:

Linux Lite 5.2 LTS parmanand-Inspiron-N4010 tty2
parmanand-Inspiron-N4010 login: _

Is this root user login? If yes, then how can I close this window without logging in as root?

Edit: Never mind. This black screen is a tty virtual console. I got back to my graphical desktop by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F7.

¡Hola a todos! ¡Espero la estén pasando bien llenos de salud ustedes y sus seres queridos!

Frustrated.
I use Linux Lite since version 3.x for those of my older customers that do only web mail and surfing and for whom Windoze is too complex.
I downloaded version 5.2 and created an install USB drive with Balena Etcher!
I did not get asked but the system starts into a text interface of GRUB.
How can I eliminate GRUB?
The computer is an older HP with AMD A8 cpu, 12GB of RAM and a 240GB Crucial SSD; except for the SSD it is a plain vanilla HP machine with more RAM.
TIA
Eike

MXLinux is my NO1 distro and nice Linux Lite is my second.

Hi all. I believe its a standard term for Linux end of cycle, but 'Final Released' always has made me think of this is the last one you're going to get
Dont know if its worth discussion, many thanks to Jerry for fine work.
Cheers,
Al.

I'm using Transmission 2.92 on a fully-updated Linux Lite 5.0. (This is the torrent software LL 5.0 came with.).

I consistently get the subject error msg for the Linux Lite torrent I'm serving/seeding.

I get this msg only for Linux Lite (never any of the 10 other distros I serve).

I've been getting the error serving 5.0 for months (since it was released). I just downloaded 5.2 and got it error within minutes of adding the torrent to Transmission.

Transmission is set to use port 51413 & "UPnP or NAT-PMP". My router is configured to use port-forwarding, not UPnP. ("Test port" says port is open.). This info seems irrelevant because 10 other ISOs I'm constantly seeding never have this error.

I wanted to report this in case it's not been noticed. It seems to be something specific to the tracker Linux Lite uses? (No other Linux ISO I serve/seed is every error-red with this msg. But, LL has it all the time, whenever I check in on my laptop seeding ISOs).

If I can provide any other info, I will be happy to.

Dear people
  When I click on an internet link in evolution mail, I get firefox instead of my standard microsoft edge browser. Edge is the default browser in settings. And in edge browser too. Can I change that?

Sincerely,
Sjaak
