  Amule_ dependancy not satisfiable
Posted by: cantagril - 09-18-2020, 09:44 AM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (2)

...and here we are again:

Have been happily using Amule for a few years on both W7 and Ubuntu 16.04LTS and am now trying to install it on LL5.0..... with almost the same issues as I had with Megasync, the difference that I can't seem to find a version that is compatible with Ubuntu 20.04. I've got as far as trying the one I found (amule_2.3.2-2_amd64.deb) which was described as being compatible with 18.04 and onward....but, nada.

Does any kind soul know of where I could get the right one for LL5.0?....or perhaps could advise me what I can do with another version to make it work?

Posted by: fuechiry - 09-18-2020, 04:12 AM - Forum: Spanish [Spanish] - No Replies

hi every body i really need some help with this bug because it won't let install anything no matter what it won to install it just said the same. now I made it better, I just remove every driver  about androit and it made it  but leave this answer:

code=exited,
status=255/EXCEPTION)



muy buenas necesito ayuda por favor, resulta que tengo linux lite pero quiero flashear telefonos Big Grin
:-\ como no soy diestro y ni siquiera programador (aunque entiendo varios terminos) se lo complicado que es el asunto de los drivers en android de hecho tengo un blu advance que está de darle por la jupa nada mas  8)
porque tengo la rom stock de dicho dispositivo, el punto es que soy novato en linux ubuntu aunque he visto lo mucho que ha progresado desde hace mucho sigue siendo tedioso y fustrante el intentar usar el sistema operativo para trabajar con telefonos
sin embargo me encontre la dream cast de linux  ;D me refiero a FWUL al ver que trae todo la puse en la pendrive  y listo booteo desde ahí pero todo se pierde y nunca me leyó el telefono el sp flash ni el simple adb pero fwul si lee el telefono.
al ver esto trate de installar todo en linux lite para no estar en esa vara de volver a instalar todo cada vez que quiera usar fwul.
lo hice empece una ardua instalacionde actualizaciones y cuando ya estaba cerca de acercarme. ta dán

N: Tenga en cuenta que eliminar el archivo de bloqueo no es una solución y puede dañar su sistema.
E: No se pudo bloquear el directorio /var/cache/apt/archives/
no sé pero todo lo que quiero instalar ahora no me deja porque el bendito android-23 ya existe y traté con una sugerencia que parecia arreglarlo pero solo me desinstaló repositorios obsoletos entre otras cosas obsoletas lo cual está bien pero me tiró esto para rematar:

  Laptop Black Screen on Battery
Posted by: TheLamerLinux - 09-18-2020, 02:01 AM - Forum: Security & Bug Fixes - Replies (3)

Hello,

When I boot my laptop up without the charger plug in I get nothing but a black screen. But when I boot my laptop up with charger connected it boots fine.

Without the charger I can see the boot splash screen but guessing when it passes the boot splash screen it doesn’t take me to LightDM it just gives me a black screen.

Other distros it takes me to the login screen with or without the charger plugged in.

Here’s the computer specs:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3500U
GPU: AMD Vega
Ram: 16GB

Thank you

  Memory leak in Lite Widget?
Posted by: Richard B - 09-17-2020, 01:28 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (3)


LL5 is excellent. I am having issues getting my head around EUFI but that is another matter. The following problem was, I am pretty sure, also present in LL4.

After having a problem with a machine "seizing up" if left on for several days I investigated and think there is a problem with the Lite Widget (or conky, which it uses) grabbing more and more memory over time. I have confirmed this using LL5.0 on several machines, with both Intel and AMD processors and from 2GB to 12GB RAM. Some were totally new installs. My tests use the following script:



Code:
#!/bin/bash
# litewsize.sh is to report conky's memory use every hour
# Licence: Any legal use that does not harm anyone is permitted
echo
echo litewsize.sh reports conky\'s memory use every hour
echo
echo runs top -d 3600 -b \|grep conky
echo  . PID  USER .... PR . NI VIRT ... RES .. SHR . S . %CPU %MEM . TIME+ . COMMAND
top -d 3600 -b |grep conky


These are the first results using a machine with 4GB RAM. The script was started after 2 hours "up" time.
Code:
litewsize.sh reports conky's memory use every hour


runs top -d 3600 -b |grep conky
. PID USER .... PR . NI VIRT ... RES .. SHR . S . %CPU %MEM . TIME+ . COMMAND

2096 nomaz     20   0  702028 108416  13776 S   1.9  2.8  10:30.71 conky
2096 nomaz     20   0  710864 117244  13776 S   1.9  3.0  11:40.61 conky
Note that memory used by conky has gone from 1% to 3% between 2 and roughly 12 hours. (For whatever reason the timing of the tests is only approximately every 3600 seconds.)


Leaving this running, the RAM usage after 700 hours was nearly 33% as shown here:
Code:
2096 nomaz     20   0 2717092 1.213g   2260 S   1.4 32.8 700:17.74 conky
I think there is a problem. Pursuing it further is beyond me but I would be happy to test any proposed solution.


Regards to Jerry and all developers and users.

  Linux Lite Persistent USB Purchase
Posted by: BobtheBaptist - 09-17-2020, 10:20 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (7)

Thank you for your response.
However I do not at present want to install LL but use the USB in Live mode with persistence on my old laptop whilst keeping all my apps and files intact.
Do I need to start a post in "Installing LL"?
As I said the usb live drive that I created boots fine but the purchased LL USB Persistent only shows as "Operation System not found"
I would be happy to create my own persistent USB live drive from Windows 10 if I could find directions for doing so, but it seems not to be possible at present.
I am sorry to have such a lack of knowledge but can you please point me to the correct place.
Regards
Bob Edwards

Hello,
I've came back to Linux Lite because I was missing how great it was on my computers. I'm having an issue with my new laptop that I use for college and personal uses. When I plug in the charger in my laptop it boots up just fine but when I unplug the laptop and turn it on I get a black screen. I've done an update and still no fixed.

  Megasync _ dependancy not satisfiable
Posted by: cantagril - 09-16-2020, 01:52 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (5)

My first post and first day with LL5.0 and my only prior linux experience is as a humble user of Ubuntu 16.04LTS for a couple of years - so I hope that you'll forgive the stupidity of my questions:

I have tried to download 'megasync-xUbuntu_18.04_amd64.deb' which I think I have done correctly as it and the related Nautilus file show in my download folder. From that point I haven't been able to move forward. I have tried opening the main file with gdebi and all I get is"Error: Dependancy is not satisfiable:libraw16 (>= 0.16.0)."  Apart from that I see no logfile displayed and wouldn't know where to look.

I have looked at the ubuntu forum and have found several (sometimes conflicting)  methods to try and solve this from the command line but I'd be grateful if someone might direct me as which ones I should be trying in which order.

  I would like to pay you every time a new version comes out.
Posted by: icedigger - 09-16-2020, 01:31 PM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (1)

Just like a couple other linux distros or windows does.  And/or how many computers I install it on.

Right now I have LL 5 on my work laptop and work desktop.  But also when I sell clients used computers with it installed I would also like to send you money too.

Any time you come out with a new version I would like to pay you for your hard work.

Jerry, you are doing a fantastic job!

I don't expect any support but you always help out when needed on the forum.  Even my stupid questions.  You rock!

  Linux Lite, Rambox / Whatsapp
Posted by: Klaus_Z - 09-16-2020, 11:50 AM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (1)

I have a question, because I'm not able to find a solution: when I use Rambox with WhatsApp and want to add a picture, what I see of the pictures to be inserted is in screehshot below: instead of the name of the files, I only see RECTANGULARS.  Sad Sad .

Is that just a problem with my configuration or a problem with Rambox / Whatsapp?

  Hi to all
Posted by: Klaus_Z - 09-15-2020, 08:32 PM - Forum: Introductions - Replies (1)

Hello together,
I'm new with Linux Lite 5.0...but no so new with Linux: started middle of the 90s with SUSE Linux (I think it was the version 4.2 - everything on a Pention-workstation with SCSI devices, running with an Adaptec 2940-controller). It was really difficult to bring everything together: scanner, DAT, Iomega-ZIP...and last but not least my TV-card Hauppauge.

My Laptop now:
Fujitsu S761 with Dockingstation
16 GB RAM
2xSSD 500 GB
ASUS-BT USB (better as the Onboard BT)
External Monitor Fujitsu B22W-6 LED

Normally I'm in the Apple world , on my MacBook Pro...but Linux is also nice.
So far, thats all about me. Maybe once: I'm not the youngest anymore  Wink

All the best to the Linux developer team for their excellent work!

I have a question, because I'm not able to find a solution: when I use Rambox with WhatsApp and want to add a picture, what I see of the pictures to be inserted is in my attachment "Linux Lite 5.0_RAMBOX.zip". instead of the name of the files, I only see RECTANGULARS.  Sad Sad.
Is that just a problem with my configuration or a problem with Rambox / Whatsapp?

Thanks a lot and Greetings from Germany / Brandenburg (closed to Berlin).
