  Is there a file explorer with a tree structure browser
Posted by: konan - 09-01-2020, 03:40 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (5)

I  have just installer Linux lite - 'really like it except the file explorer that comes with it doesn't have a convenient tree structure in a left pane, like that of Windows Explorer.
Is there one that I can download and install on Linux Lite?  I see Konqueror has this but it says it is for KDE. I don't believe L-Lite is KDE. Is this right, or could I use Konqueror?

Thanks!!

  Icons are in /usr/share/icons, but I can't apply them
Posted by: UglyStuff - 08-31-2020, 06:42 PM - Forum: Desktop Customization - Replies (6)

Hi everyone,

I've downloaded, unzipped and copied icon sets to my /usr/share/icons folder, but when I go to Appearance and try to apply said icons, they're not in the list.

I've rebooted several times, I can't find them.

When I sudo update-icon-caches /usr/share/icons/*, I get an error message for one of the sets (Arc-ICONS), but that's it.

  Hello Linux World.
Posted by: astro - 08-31-2020, 10:51 AM - Forum: Introductions - Replies (3)

Hello from one who is making the transition from Windows to Linux.

I've downloaded  several lightweight Linux distros trying to find one that a) works more or less straight out of the box, b) I'm comfortable with and c) offers good support. Linux Lite looks like it may be the best compromise for my aged hardware, a Samsung N110 netbook.

So far, so good. The only thing giving me trouble is getting Blueman to free up my Bluetooth serial port for other software to use. Details to follow, when I get totally lost, as I don't speak 'Linux' very well yet.

I hope this is the right place to post. I am on holiday and brought my HP streamx360 with Lite5.Everything was fine until two hours ago when I switched on and I was asked for my password.  This is disabled so I was surprised but gave it my usual pass for updates etc. It accepts then 10 seconds later asks again and again. Totally confused, can anybody help ?

  How to disable tooltips LL5

How do I disable tooltips in Linux Lite 5? Tooltips are the little info boxes that pop up when hovering the mouse over an icon, especially an icon in a panel.

Thanks.

  Ivideon Client Problem
Posted by: AposChatz382 - 08-28-2020, 01:51 PM - Forum: On Topic - No Replies

Just in case anyone was trying to install Ivideon Client on LL 5.0 or Ubuntu 20.04. I contacted the support team and informed that it currently does not work:

Dear User,

The SSL security certificates were changed in Ubuntu 20.04, so currently the released version of the Ivideon Client doesn't work with Ubuntu 20.04.

The updated version of Ivideon Client will support the Ubuntu 20.04 and it will be released very soon. Our specialists will definitely contact you.

I hope this will help some people.

  3.8 (32-bit): Start Gigolo minimized to Plank on startup?
Posted by: UglyStuff - 08-28-2020, 11:26 AM - Forum: Installing Software - No Replies

Hi everyone,

I've installed Gigolo to facilitate my connecting to a Windows Server my MacBook Pro is tethered to via Ethernet. Gigolo works fine, but after adding it to the applications I want to launch on startup, I wonder how to have it start minimized in Plank (I've already anchored it to Plank).

There must be a command line argument to add, akin to the "-minimized" in Windows, but I don't know what it is. FWIW, "-minimized" does nothing.

How can I do that?

EDIT: Problem solved. I minimized Gigolo to Plank before shutting down Lite, and when it booted, Gigolo was already minimized in Plank, so all is well.

  3.8 (32-bit): No matter what I choose, press on Power button only disconnects
Posted by: UglyStuff - 08-28-2020, 09:52 AM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - Replies (2)

Hi everyone,

Though i really like Lite, it's becoming a nightmare using it on a daily basis. I reinstalled just last night after another round of arduous booting issues, and now, when I press the Power button, I'm only disconnected, not asked what I'd like to do.

I've tried to change the entry in the menu, reboot, put it back to "Ask", no go. I press the button, I'm back to the login screen.

I must add that I upgraded to the 5.8 kernel in Lite Tweaks, which came as a surprise, because I thought that branch was restricted to 64-bit, and my 2006 MacBook Pro can only run 32-bit.

Ideas, anyone?

EDIT: Problem solved. I must have inadvertently unchecked the "Show dialogue" box. Once checked, I had the choice to shutdown, restart, etc... again.
