Hello Everyone,

I am new user of LL and a real rookie. I have installed LL on dual boot with W10 and love the new OS over my W10 but I have an issue which would appreciate your expert thoughts on.

When using Firefox / Chromium, I cannot download and save any pdf files and always get the download failed - disk full error. Now I have been updating LL and installing several apps I needed and they dl / install like a breeze but pdf files have been giving me this message from day one.

Here is what I get on GParted as details of the partitions.

Any thoughts are appreciated. I just hope I don't have to redo the installation.

Many Thanks

Hi everyone.

When I use Lite Sounds and choose Disable Logout Sound it doesn’t give me feedback with the message: Sounds Have Been Disabled - OK, like the other ones do. After restarting the computer, I Logout and the sound still plays. After disabling the logout sound then Enable Logout Sound I get: The Logout Sound may already be enabled. So it’s not disabling at all. I’m trying to have no System Sounds whatsoever. Thank you for your help.

Good day to you all. Sorry for my English, i`m from Ukraine. I have a problem with my printer HP LaserJet m1132MFP on Linux Lite 5.0. I simply can not make him work. I tried to install HPLIP via terminal and by downloading deb package from official HP web-site but nothing worked so far. Can anyone tell me how to fix it. On LL4.0 everything worked good.

Does anyone know if you can transfer photos from your iphone straight onto linuxlite?

Thanks for reading.

Hello everyone! I'm a beginner Linux user who mostly got into Linux because I needed a reliable computer for work, and all I have are dinosaurs who can't run windows 10.

I've successfully installed Linux Lite 4.8 on a Fujitsu Lifebook (with 250gb HDD, and 4gb RAM), and have been using it for work and recreation for the past 2 weeks. However, when I initially installed Linux Lite (I opted to dual boot as it is my first install of any Linux OS), I only allotted 90gb to it because I thought I would have to use Windows more. Now, I find that I almost exclusively use Linux (The performance improvement is just amazing) and would like to reduce some of the memory from Windows and give it to LL. I have a basic understanding of partitioning since learning Linux has been my recent obsession but I am not knowledgeable enough to risk re-partitioning the HDD.

Thank you!

TL;DR Dual booting Windows 10 and Linux Lite: how to reduce Windows' disk size and add more to Linux.

So I was at Costco and decided to try Linux Lite 5.0 to see if everything worked (wifi being the most important)
I picked an HP, I-7, with nvdia  graphics card, 16 gig of memory and a 512 gig of ss storage to boot up LL 5.0 from my USB.
It took just as long to boot up as my old laptop at home!! I was surprised to think that a new hot machine would not make it boot in a flash.
Does anyone have comments on why it takes LL so long to boot on old or new??
