  Hello from Bob
Posted by: BobtheBaptist - 09-15-2020, 06:50 PM - Forum: Introductions - Replies (1)

Hello All.
I recently purchased a Linux Lite USB persistent from the LL shop. I did this because I have always used Windows but hat Microsoft and the way they treat their users. I now find I have a perfectly good scanner /printer that Windows 10 does not now support.
I downloaded and put a LL 5.0 Live on USB with Etcher to try it and it found my printer perfectly.
Anyway having received my bespoke LL 5.0 USB persistent I find it will not run at startup.
I get a message "Operation System not found". When I look at the USB from my Live setup I can see that there are files there.
Can anyone please point me to resources that might help?
I want to be able to run USB live persistent for now and not install yet.
Maybe at a later date.
Please let me know what information you need to help me. As I say I am a complete Newbie at anything Linux with limited knowledge so please be gentle with me!
Regards
Bob

  VMware Workstation 16 New?
Posted by: icedigger - 09-15-2020, 02:00 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (4)

So the new VMware workstation 16 came out the other day and I'm trying to get it installed.

Unfortunately I still need windows to run some programs for work since they wont play nice with wine.

I'm using LL 5.0 with kernel 5.7.0 from the LL Tweaks.

"After installation I click on VMware Workstation and it gives me this error.
Before you can run VMware, several modules must be compiled and loaded into the running kernel
GCC 5.4.0 was not found."

I don't want to do anything that breaks anything.  Any suggestions would be welcome.

System Specs:
AMD x570 Chipset, AMD Ryzen 3800x, 32GB DDR4 4000 RAM, AMD 5700XT Video Card, 1TB M.2 PCIe 4x drive

  Bash_Functions
Posted by: Marmaduke - 09-14-2020, 08:03 PM - Forum: Scripting and Bash - No Replies

I'm experimenting with using functions to call a shell script instead of writing the functions out in .bash_functions file.

  1. Allows me to use VSCode with Synthax highlighting.
  2. Easy updates of the function without the need to source the functions file.
  3. I've created a script to prepopulate the functions file and source on each new addition.

  Project Creation
Posted by: Marmaduke - 09-14-2020, 01:23 PM - Forum: Scripting and Bash - No Replies

I've been working on a script that automates the creation of a new project for me.

Creates a directory in my Projects directory.
Depending on type of project:

  1. 1. Flutter
  2. 2. PHP
etc

Create the necessary dependices and launches the in VSCode.

It's a bit too length to share here but I'm in the process of putting it up on GitHub.

  Recommendation for ultra simple wysiwyg html editor - if any within repositories
Posted by: gotLL - 09-13-2020, 04:58 PM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (2)

Hello,
I'm looking for an ultra simple wysiwyg html editor - if any exists within the current Linux Lite 4.4 repositories.

I understand today's web is becoming the entertainment and advertising conduit for the world - and html is becoming increasingly complex.

But I'm looking for an ultra simple html editor to create ultra basic text.

I've looked in synaptic and don't readily see anything.
I've looked at TinyMCE - but that does not appear to be a wysiwyg editor.

I suppose I could try to use a LybreOffice - but I'm wondering if that is going to populate the html page with a ton of unnecessary html code?

Sincere thanks
GotLL

Hey,
is there a way to get an audio file of the startup sound of Linux Lite 5.0 somewhere? I think it is exemplaric. Love it to death. Wanna show it to a few Linux lovers.

Hat jemand eine Ahnung, wovon die Wetter-App abhängt? Seit einigen Tagen zeigt sie nur noch an "Keine Daten verfügbar." Die Ortsdaten sind richtig eingestellt. Aktualisieren ändert nichts. Ich habe das Ding wohl auch inzwischen einmal deinstalliert und neu installiert.

It works in my another linux pc, with steam. But it doesn't work in ll. It works in wine though but very slow somehow. Even though my gpu is just enough for that. The game isn't like AAA games you know very basic graphics. So why it doesn't? I use amd 7320 gpu, something old but enough.
