Hi everyone,
I'm still struggling with Lite 3.8 (32-bit, because my early 2006 MacBook Pro has a Core Duo CPU that only accepts 32-bit OSes) startup, with the occasional black screen of nothingness that prompts for a force shutdown, or the unwanted reboot on every other startup (see here: https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/start...53405/#new).
To counter this until I find a viable solution, I'd like to use hibernation. On the Mac side of my MacBook Pro, it's pretty straightforward to set up, and very convenient, but on the Lite side, well...
I've read countless tutos here and there about how to do it, but there doesn't seem to be a mother of all recipes for my machine. Swap is set at 4GB (twice the installed RAM), so if the hibernation file is to be stored there, there's plenty of room to wriggle.
I'd really like to make this work, so please holler!
I am using Linux Lite/Ubuntu 18.04 and I recently faced a problem that my laptop's bluetooth was switching on but when I tried to use Blueman to switch it off, I was introduced with an error saying:
Failed to execute command "blueman-manager".
Failed to execute child process "blueman-manager" (No such file or directory)Then I tried installing it but when I ran
sudo apt install bluemanI got this output:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
blueman is already the newest version (2.0.4-1ubuntu2).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.I guess this means it is installed but I cannot run the GUI nor can I see any indicator for it.
Please help.
Thanks!
I found the driver installed it using the terminal and it never said done. it just said installing then showed the default user@username/ message again that you get when you first open it. Anyone know what to do?
Installed LL 5.0 on a really old laptop today that hasn't been used for something like two years. It's the first time any distro in my experience has ever automatically detected and used the wifi hardware in that machine (Dell Latitude). I'm delighted to see the progress this distro is making!
Hi! I switched over from Mint and I am loving your distro. I gladly donated. I need help installing my home network Brother MFCJ485DW printer. I keep getting the error "There was an error during the CUPS operation: server-error-internal-error". I disabled firewall and it still gives the same error. Please help.
I have a danish keyboard but for some stupid reason my ThinkPad T520 does not have the <>\ key (between Z and shift), so in order to write < and > I have added US keyboard layout, which I then change to whenever I need those characters. But after adding it, it always starts up with US keyboard layout on boot, instead of Danish. How do I make Danish default?
This is not a specific Linux Lite problem since it's the same on all distros. I am using my laptop with a docking station, and need the sound to go to HDMI 3, but it always defaults to HDMI 2 when starting up/redocking. I need to change it every time in the Pulseaudio volume control.
Is there a way to make it use HDMI 3 instead of 2? Perhaps remove HDMI 2 alltogether? Always forcing HDMI 3 is not an option since it needs to correctly revert back to internal speakers when undocked.
I searched, can't find an answer. With older linux generations, I used to be able to just plug in ipod (older nano), it would be recognized by file manager and accessible via banshee or rhythmbox where I could upload or download/sync files.
Now, nada. I tried installing both banshee and ryhthmbox on the off chance that perhaps they were needed or had a needed driver packaged. Still nothing.
Is LL missing a driver or file reference to identify this device?
So I was trying to install linux lite, and I succeeded in doing so. But I must've done something wrong because whenever I boot normally, I get a screen that has 4 options: Ubuntu, Advanced options for Ubuntu, Memory test (memtest86+), and Memory test (memtest86+, serial console 115200). No matter what option I choose, the computer restarts and I get the same screen again. I have tried many settings, but to no avail. I am running a Dell DM051 Bios Revison A02. The last time I did the memory test, I ended up getting 68000000+ errors. I can't do a clean install due to the fact that the computer I'm writing this with right now is the only one that connects to the internet. It runs chromeOS and therefore can't create bootable iso's, and I can't turn the Linux settings on. I can only do the basic BASH commands, so I can't do something like fdisk, mount, etc, etc. Also, for some reason, /vmlinuz doesn't exist. Running the 'ls' command, I get (hd0), (hd0,msdos5), (hd0,msdos1), and fd0.
I have 1tb external HDD with exfat format . exfat using because I have windows 10 & macos laptop.
this format best way to communicate with all OS. But when I copy more that 100gb file
movie, document, picture folders on LL5 , my touchpad mouse complete hang , I'm not able to open
any single window until finish copying. that's problem I never face with windows and macos. so I
search google . find some solution in ubuntu site . add few lines like this in /etc/sysctl.conf
vm.swappiness=10
vm.dirty_background_ratio=1
vm.dirty_ratio=2
restart computer and again I try to copy 60gb+ file to LL 5, same problem again. but when I put back
all file to my external HDD , touchpad works well , I can work side by side with copying.
I think maybe exfat file system problem . If I completely make ext4 file system to my external HDD
do it make same problem when coping ? If anyone know, please give me guide . why large file copy problem ?
