  3.8 32-bit on early 2006 MacBook Pro: Boot fails one time out of two
Posted by: UglyStuff - 08-13-2020, 11:21 AM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - Replies (1)

Hi everyone,

I'm new here, but not entirely a Linux newbie. I need some advice and/or guidance on this matter, though: I recently decided to insuflate a little life in my aging and beloved early 2006 MacBook Pro that was forever stuck with Snow Leopard due to its 32-bit-only CoreDuo CPU, and tested several Linux distros before settling down (I think) with Linux Lite.

Of course, i can't install the latest release, so I'm running 3.8 (32-bit...), fully up-to-date, and install was relatively painless.

I may have a hardware compatibility issue, though, whether with the graphics card or TPM module (I thought my MBP didn't have one, but I saw a few error messages about it in verbose reboot), that are causing startup to fail every other time.

In other words, I shutdown Lite, and it doesn't matter if I'm restarting or doing a cold boot, one time out of two, like clockwork, boot will stop at the "feather screen", and the Mac will restart. I'll see the rEFInd screen again, then grub, and only then will Lite actually boot.

It's not random, it happens precisely one time out of two, so I'm a bit at a loss as to why, and how I can correct that.

  grub error - cant boot windows
Posted by: franco-jyq - 08-12-2020, 01:04 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (2)

Hello, i tried to dual boot windows 7 and linux lite in my hp all in one omni 120. At first i had this problem "No EFI system partition was found". So i search in some forums and the solution was creating an Efi partition (256MB). After this linux lite started the installation but at some point it fails and show this error: “executing grub-install dev/sda failed" "fatal error".
Again looking for a solution ive reached this website that says enter in live mode and execute some commands in the terminal to solve it, the problem is that when i tried to launch in live mode it "crashes" and shows the entire screen in one color and start switching colors in loop.
The other problem is that i cant boot in windows because the bootable option doesn't appear anymore in the Bios.

  HBOMAX
Posted by: sameck - 08-11-2020, 10:06 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (9)

Last week I was able to log onto HBOMAX and watch a show via the Firefox browser.  Last night I attempted to watch the latest episode and now I cannot play any titles from the website. The error is "Can't Play Title, We're having trouble playing this video. Try again later." In the interim I installed the latest patches.  I have used Timeshift to revert to an image available from a few days before the patching.  Unfortunately this has not resolved the problem.  I even attempted to install the Chromium browser but was met with the same trouble.  Linux (of any flavor) is not on the supported OS list.  The rub of it is is that it did work.  Any ideas out there?  I thought maybe it may have to do with DRM content but I'm really sure how to pursue that.  Or maybe I need a different codec?

  LuckyBackup not working in LL50
Posted by: arky217 - 08-10-2020, 06:36 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (17)

When you install LuckyBackup, it puts two options in the menu.
Normal LuckyBackup and LuckyBackup as superuser.
With LuckyBackup, the command is /usr/bin/luckybackup.
With LuckyBackup as superuser, the command is /usr/bin/luckybackup-pkexec.

I save to an external hard drive and with the regular LuckyBackup, it always failed because
of not having the correct permission, so I always used the superuser LuckyBackup.
(This was with LL48)

Well, the superuser LuckyBackup always worked just fine in LL48, but in LL50, it gives the following error
when you use the terminal to start it:

 /usr/bin/luckybackup-pkexec
qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, xcb.

Aborted

Anyone know what the problem could be ?

  wireless icon
Posted by: Syldupac - 08-10-2020, 05:07 PM - Forum: Network - Replies (2)

https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/index.php

Hi, i install Linuxlite 10 on an old Asus laptop. Very good indeed. But no wireless icon appear in the system tray. At home, no problem, the laptop was connected during the install. But if I bring my laptop anywhere else, impossible to connect, impossible to choose and contact a local box.
How can I make the icon appear or open the wireless window ? Thanks.
