Hello,

Very slow start, over 3 minutes...

=> cmd: sudo systemd-analyze time

Startup finished in 37.291s (kernel) + 2min 23.334s (userspace) = 3min 625ms
graphical.target reached after 2min 23.280s in userspace


After read many answers on the same slow start subjects, try few solutions without succes.

Linux Lite 5 is the only OS on my computer, but occasionally the GRUB screen shows during boot-up. I know how to make it show if I want it to - press SHIFT during booting - but I don't know of any reason that it is showing up now. Can I stop it from popping up? If so, how? Or is that a good idea?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Update: My post originally asked about getting Launcher apps to show up as I wanted. I have solved that on my own, although I recall doing that in a simpler way earlier. But I got 'er done, so that is no longer an issue for me.

Hello I have Linux Lite 5.1.
How I can open automatically on boot firefox to kiosk mode?

one of the two  PC's bit the dust, got a new desktop PC 64bit, so right now , one linux PC and one windows 10 home in the house.
the new PC has a internal solid state drive and a 1 terabyte hard drive, windows 10 is installed on the SSD.

my question is can it be installed and run on this new computer "Lenovo IdeaCentre 510A Desktop - AMD Ryzen 5 3400G" ?.

i am not going to install it at this time on the new PC, i'm going to wait till after the warranty period is over.
so i am just wondering is all, can it run on it and how should i install it ?, because of the internal SSD drive.

here is the link to the desktop PC i purchased.

Item  1430662 , Model  90J000BBUS
---------------------------------------------------------
so what are your thoughts ?, for me it is running smoothly so far.

Hi,

Is there any solution available for my subject issue whic I am facing since I installed LinuxLite 5.0 version, whereas when I was using Linuxlite 4.8 version my system was quite OK with Wireless USB.

Hi all

Have just started using LL (moved from Linux Mint after reading about it on Distrowatch) and love it!

I have got to grips with most of it, mainly because it works so well OOTB and is a doddle to set up but...

I have an issue setting up my Canon MG3500 on wifi.

USB setup works fine - it adds the drivers and I can print.

Wifi does not. Sadly it worked fine on my other box which has Linux Mint on.

When I tried to do via wifi it refused to detect it until I allowed it the setup to modify the firewall to open up IPP and Msomethingsomething (not sure what).

I did this and it added the printer (actually it offered two options to select here, IPP and another). I have tried both of them and when I try and print a test page I get a CUPS server error.

I tried a direct IP address and that did not work.

I have looked around and other people seem to have the same issue and turning the firewall off seems to be an option. I was leery enough opening up the IPP and Mwhatever as I was not sure what the risk was here (I tried to move the firewall to a home profile but not sure if that worked or helped).

My questions:

Given that I have a cable modem with built in firewall, what is the risk of turning off the OS firewall as a matter of principle to allow things like this to work?

Can I turn the firewall off to install the printer and turn it back on again and turn it off just to print?

Cheers

Hello, Everyone.

i used dual boot windows 8 and LL 5.0. Everything worked fine except turning it off completely. when i tried to shutdown and rebooted it again it a few seconds. i have tried to turn off fast startup in windows but did not worked.


Would anyone know how to fix this problem?

Hi all, just installed Linux Lite on one of the older boxes around here.
Other boxes run Zorin and Mint Mate which is my primary pc.
Since I wanted to escape Ubuntu due to their Snap intro I tried on this old box Debian, Sparky, Open BSD but all gave me problems which I needed to solve manually.
Since I don't want to fix everything under the hood anymore (spoiled with Mint) I decided to give Lite a try.
Last option was Mint XFCE but I like Lite so it will stay 
Hope to find interesting ideas again and probably some help if I want the easy way out.

Gr,

Erwin

So I've dabbled with Linux a little in the past, but never switched permanently. After having 4 paid copies of Windows 10 Pro de-activate on me I'm done. I should have done this after the second time. But I was stupid. What sucks is most of my steam library is Windows Games, but some work under Linux with Steam's "fixes". I've installed Wine to try some other games with. I mainly Play 7 Days To Die which has Linux support, but I get a little lag, but thats expected from what I've been reading. I'm on LinuxLite 5.2rc1 for now as when the new Ryzen chips drop next month I'll be building a new system and selling this old z97 based machine (i7-4790k).
I'm sure I'll be asking questions in the support thread. But so far everything is working fine. Dual monitors and all.

I have an acer extensa 5620 and i can only get 100mbps speed. On my lenovo thinkpad i had 340mbps with linux lite is there an update i could get for gigabit ethernet speed thanks.
