Another one that's bound to be my ignorance:
Sorry in advance, this is another stupid one:

I want to install Chromium - I don't like Chrome (or Firefox) and I currently have Chromium installed on my U16.04 machine and a couple of others and I'd really like to stick with it.

I read a post here:  https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/insta...do-i-tick/

This clearly says I should be installing from Lite Software and one of the posts refers to a Search box but on my Lite Software I can't see one...so don't get as far as having the option to click.

Where should I be looking?

I installed the Linux Lite operating system on my computer just today. I am liking it, however, the scrolling direction in the touchpad is in the opposite direction. I soon found the reverse scrolling option in the touchpad settings, and activated it right after but nothing has changed. I tried rebooting too, no change. Please suggest me a fix to get back my reverse scrolling. I love it. Please someone help me

I put Linux Lite 4.8 on my friends desktop computer and all went well.
He's been using the computer with no errors for four days now. He went to his Photos folder where I had placed several thousand of his photos of all types and the folder is  now empty. Not one photo was present. I had him go to the recycle bin and it too was empty.
He says he did not delete any photos but did up load more photos from a thumb drive. They uploaded with no issues.
I had him check to see if somehow the photos file was sent to the thumb-drive,they had not.
Any ideas as to what has happened to his photos or where they went?

Is it possible using Linux to do the equivalent of what you can do on a Mac with file comments? That is, a separate comment about the file that you add to it later but which is separate from it, yet stays attached to it and can be edited. They are really useful for labeling things or making notes about whatever. This question may not make sense to people who haven't used it on a Mac, in which case I suppose it's probably not possible to do with Linux.

Just an update that I have just finished building a new repository/ftp server based on the latest packages. The old server was based on 14.04, out of date.

If you have any problems with Lite Info or getting connection errors with Install Updates, please let me know here.

The new server is free and is thanks to Thomas and the team at Fosshost.org who approached us via email last month. So that will save us $30 per month Smile

The old server will run for 1 more month to ensure this server is solid and reliable.

Linux lite does not adapt particularly well to the language in which it is installed and should be fixed to improve the user experience
