I don't mean for this to sound like a comparison 'whine' but I have a question about connecting an android phone to Linux Lite.

When I used Linux Mint and would connect up my android phone, I would be presented with an icon on the desktop denoting the phone and could transfer files to the SD Card in the phone.

On the exact same PC, which now runs Linux Lite, if I hook up my phone an application comes up to allow me to transfer photos.  Admittedly this is pretty slick but if given a choice I would rather be able to transfer files.

Any suggestions?

All of the GTK 2 Themes are not showing in the Appearance application. Only GTK 3 themes are showing up. Themes such as Crux, Clearlooks, etc are not on the Appearance>Styles List.

Hello.

I just upgraded from LL 4.8 to LL 5.0 a few days ago. One of the changes that I usually do is to change my file manager from Thunar to Caja because the former (Thunar) doesn't have preview options that I prefer. After the upgrade, some thumbnails in Caja are not showing even if I set the same preview options at less than 10 MB :

Caja>Edit>Preferences>Preview>Other Previewable Files>Always show thumbnails>Only files smaller than 10 MB.

Hi,

I search a bit on the forum but found nothing helping. Maybe is miss something? Please link me the topic!

I found an old HP Elitepad 1000 G2 and it was SOOOO slow and unusable. Since I always wanted to try Linux Lite, I gave it a shot with a lot of success. That tablet is usable again! Even better than a fresh windows 7 install.

I got some issue with the touchscreen:

  1. The touchscreen works to move the mouse but I don't see how to do a right click!
  2. Is it possible to have a soft keyboard showing up when a text field is active?
  3. Is there a way to setup gesture like, pinch to zoom/unzoom, double finger to scroll, etc. Like on typical tablet?

I saw (google) people talking about the software touchegg that give some options for touchscreen setup. Before I try some external software, I was looking for a possible builtin Linux Lite solution to keep it clean.

Anyone got a tablet working perfectly with the touchscreen? Is so, could you share your recipe?

Thanks!  Smile


Marc

Any timetable for including an updated version of LibreOffice?

Current version appears to be 6.4.3.3 which has a nasty usability gap in the print dialog for LO Writer when used on 1024x768 or smaller screens (the print dialog is too tall and you can't click OK to... actually print!).

LO developers say the fix is in 6.4.4 but that doesn't seem to have rolled out yet.

Or is the alternative to uninstall the version that comes with LL and then download and install the .deb and fix up all the paths etc.?
