  Linux Lite 5.0 USB only shows "grub>"
Posted by: Amit Lavon - 06-02-2020, 08:05 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (5)

Hello. I just heard of LL and I'm excited to try it out  ;D

I flashed the 5.0 ISO on my USB drive and rebooted my PC. When booting from the USB drive, all I get is a "grub>" command line. No loading screen or anything. I expect a live version to run, correct me if that's not what it should do.

I am on Win10; BIOS Mode = Legacy; PC is about 6 years old.

I tried using Etcher to flash the drive as recommended. It reported success but rendered the drive unreadable. I tried Linux-Live and Rufus which I typically use for other Linux distros. They flashed the drive successfully but then I got the grub thing.

How can I make LL run? Happy to provide additional information if needed.

  New LL Web Site
Posted by: trinidad - 06-02-2020, 02:39 PM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (4)

Well I've just gone through the new web site and it is beautiful and impressively modernized. First class work. Congratulations on a wonderful upgrade to LL's web presence. I'm so excited about the new installer that I'm probably going to skip work for the next few days to test it out completely on several different hardware arrays including an older PXE install. At my age it is wonderful to see the energy and excitement at work in LL's development. I am extremely impressed, and words cannot really express how much. I hope this evolution of LL continues and you are rewarded for your effort both emotionally and monetarily. Thank you Jerry and all the team.

  libreoffice base
Posted by: Sjaak Straver1 - 06-02-2020, 12:36 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (1)

Dear people
I put linix lite 5.0 on my computer. I like it very much. I installed libreoffice base. But now when I get the existing database I get the following message.
The Thunderbird address file is doing well. What can I do about it? Below the error message.

The connection to the external data source cannot be established. No SDBC driver was found for the url 'sdbc: embedded: hsqldb
In version 4.8 it does.
Thanks in advance:
Sjaak
solved I installed the program sdbc: embedded: hsqldb via synaptic it now works fine.
Sincerely,
Sjaak

  Installing Dashlane
Posted by: Dinakaran Rengachary - 06-02-2020, 12:05 PM - Forum: Introductions - Replies (2)

Hi,
I am new to Linux.
I have managed to install apps from the store and from other third party sites.
But when I download Dashlane password manager for Deb, I get an exe file. Clicking on it only extracts the files. How do I install it?

  Password problem - Help needed please to identify why?
Posted by: newtusmaximus - 06-02-2020, 07:10 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (2)

My original post LL5.0 release was made before rebooting the laptop  LAN connection.

On rebooting - logging on password (upper and low cases) worked as expected.  However unable to Verify/authorise action such as Lite tweaks or install zoom.deb or access add/delete software
BUT was able to set up wifi passwords to two separate routers.

Keyboard language English (UK) throughout,
Keyboard settings
Number lock reset on restart unticked 
Keyboard model Fujitsu Amilo laptop  - These settings usually work fine on this Fuji lasptop  As with LL4.6
Keyboard layout English UK 

Not sure what is going on  Any ideas welcomed.
PS.  On installing I had used the keyboard identification routine - yes/no to various symbols

  Linux Lite 5.0 64bit , funny start up, and restart after full install,
Posted by: kissbaby3 - 06-01-2020, 08:10 PM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - Replies (6)

i removed the sound in this video on purpose,

i only installed this release on my upstairs Asus desktop computer. this is a clean install, fully updated, nothing new done to it yet, hoping you can tell me why this is happening.
then i will add things i like,
somewhere while booting up or restarting desktop PC, a image shows up goofy, i dont know why. hopefully some onefrom the linux lite forums can answer or give suggestions for a fix.
Linux lite 5.0 64bit just came out today(6-1-20) a a final release......
so far thats the only thing i have found strange. starts up at a good speed.
i am keeping the desktop PC downstairs on linux lite 4.8................
here is the video link i recorded of it starting up.

at 1:01 in the video is when you see it (the funny image thing )  , so start it at 0:58 to watch it happen..........
