Installed one of my favorite docks...wbar... after initial installation of 5.2.
Setup was more or less fine, but now wen I click on the icon wbar provides to
add or edit applications, the screen comes up but it is not responsive for up to
30 seconds. Then it becomes active and can be used fine.

I know this application is old...as far as I know it hasn't been updated
since 2012 or 2013, but I also have it on my Debian Bullseye and Fedora 33 partitions
and there are no problems with it there.

wbar-config is the problem.

In addition I installed Rox-filer oday and found similar lag problems.
The common thread is that they both use GTK2-0. Other GTK3-0
software doesn't exhibit this problem.



Has anyone experienced this or does anyone have a possible solution ??

Thanks

I currently use MX but I am planning to get a new, small, laptop to be more easily carried around. I  have use Lite in the past, so I am wondering about installing v 5.2 on the new computer.Therefore I  am wondering if there is a list anywhere of which programs are automatically installed right from the start. For example, I do a lot with Python, so it would be useful to see which version, if any, is present at installation. So, please, is there a list anywhere? Thanks.

Currently using Lubuntu 18.10 as a 21Gb VM in VirtualBox 4.3.40, which I think is the last version to run in Mac OS 10.6.8 Snow Leopard (16Gb RAM). Trying to install Linux Lite for the sake of two Linux-only small applications, but so far I've only managed to have it crash as soon as it launches. I cannot copy and paste the resulting error code, but I'll post a screenshot if needed (80Kb).

So, is it possible to run Linux Lite under those conditions? If yes, are the clipboards and the drag-and-drop functions fully bi-directional (only one way clipboard is working between Lubuntu and MacOS). And: what are the basic start-up settings to get it running?

Note that I have no understanding of terminal code (another reasons for wanting to find a replacement for Lubuntu.)

I managed to download and install libreoffice but having a dickens of a time with the data base i keep getting this message:
The connection to the data source" New database could not be established
The connection to the external data source could not be established.No SDBC driver was found for the URL'sdbc:embedded:hsqldb'./build/-libreoffice-JOLMwH/libreoffice-7.0.3/connectivity/source/commontools/-dbexceptions.cxx:399

I have no idea what this means and it happens when I try to create a new database with wizard or other assistance

Does any one know what the hell is going on ? I can use all the other programs this only happens with base !!

just a quick buzz

How does one install the extra bits for libre office ? I only have word spreadsheet,and presentation how do i install data base and all the other bits ?

cheers

I cannot say enough about how impressed I am with this system. I have used every version of LL since 2.6 and watched as LL progressed toward its goals. No Linux distribution achieves keeping a new user out of the CLI more successfully than Linux Lite 5. As far as I am concerned this in itself makes it by far the most new user friendly Linux system available today for new users coming from Windows. In the office, MS has had a stranglehold for years. Newly hired workers spent hours in classes learning how to use MS software but never received any real instruction on how to administer an MS system. Most new users coming from Windows are of that ilk, and Linux Lite provides them with the easiest potential transition from Windows to a superior Linux product. Simple touches matter to Windows refugees, and thoughtfully selected desktop software like Lite Tweaks and Lite Updates are of inestimable value to them. I am a long time Debian user and probably always will be as long as development continues, but I always recommend and install Linux Lite for Linux beginners. It truly is a beautifully simple and functional system that they always seem to intuitively find their way in.

Hi

Can this guide can be used if you end up in tty1

https://dev.to/rahedmir/how-to-use-times...linux-1l9b

As the title says. Should be back up in a day or so, major disk failure - https://fosshost.hund.io/issues/5fa9c2c5...4b0ca48275

Install Updates should still work as I've pointed our repo to one of our Mirrors.

Evening all  this might sound stupid but how do I install zoom on Linux lite ? I have the tar file but no idea what to do next for some reason it was not installed when i reinstalled Linux lite.

I cannot see any easy way to install it

Any help is greatly appreciated
