  Hard Disk error message after OS update
Posted by: Tyrannocaster - 12-18-2019, 02:29 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (5)

Just updated my LL 4.6 and rebooted. I was given an error message saying my secondary (spinning, about a year old) drive is about to fail. Maybe it is, or maybe it's something having to do with the update. Has anybody else had something like this happen? I continued the reboot and the drive appears to be working fine, which is meaningless if there's actually some sort of real failure involved. I just don't know how accurate the warning message is, I guess.

  Lightscribe - How to on Linux Lite
Posted by: valtam - 12-17-2019, 07:53 AM - Forum: Tutorials - No Replies

[Image: imgingest-4616560661501171126.png]

For those that have LightScribe DVD writers, the following should work.
FYI - this is a combination of many tutorials that I have poured over for hours to get to this point and to make everything work as it should, with a lot of customization.

Code:
wget https://www.linuxliteos.com/files/lightscribe/4l_1.0-r6_i386.deb
wget https://www.linuxliteos.com/files/lightscribe/lightscribe-1.18.27.10-linux-2.6-intel.deb
wget https://www.linuxliteos.com/files/lightscribe/lightscribeApplications-1.18.15.1-linux-2.6-intel.deb

Code:
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
sudo apt-get install -f

Now to check if everything went to plan, you should get a readout from:

Code:
4L-cli enumerate

similar to:

Code:
Using /etc/lightscribe.rc
Drive path: /dev/sr0
Usable: 1
Full name: hp DVD-RAM GH60L RD01 217
Model: DVD-RAM GH60L   
Manufacturer: hp     
Capabilities: monochrome
Drive inner radius: 21000
Drive outer radius: 58700

Then look in, Menu, Multimedia, Lightscribe Labeler.

  SOLVED-Where did it go?
Posted by: Rapidrob - 12-16-2019, 10:48 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (3)

I just downloaded Linux Lite 4.6 ( 4.15.0-72 X86_64 )and was reloading software for use.
I have downloaded several programs without an issue.
I then selected and downloaded WEATHER MONITOR and it completed the download.
Now, I cannot find it anywhere. Under MENU and a search, nothing shows up,just the L/L Feather icon when I type the program.
The software is under "REMOVE" but I cannot find it to open and run the software.
Please help.

  Automatically mount partitions in Linux Lite
Posted by: Calin Musceleanu - 12-15-2019, 12:27 PM - Forum: Hard Drives and SSDs - Replies (4)

Hi there!
I've already seen this question posted, but couldn't find a solution to work for me. Please keep in mind that I'm new with Linux and don't know much about it. Smile
So, I installed Linux Lite, I already set up the partitions, but I can't figure how to mount them.
My fdisk -l results are as follows:

Disk /dev/sda: 465,8 GiB, 500107862016 bytes, 976773168 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes
Disklabel type: dos
Disk identifier: 0x53e74323

Device    Boot    Start      End  Sectors  Size Id Type
/dev/sda1  *        2048 146485247 146483200  69,9G 83 Linux
/dev/sda2      146487294 976771071 830283778 395,9G  5 Extended
/dev/sda5      146487296 732422143 585934848 279,4G 83 Linux
/dev/sda6      732424192 771483647  39059456  18,6G 82 Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda7      771485696 976771071 205285376  97,9G 83 Linux

Partition 2 does not start on physical sector boundary.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Posted by: m654321 - 12-15-2019, 11:32 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (8)


In continuing to try and learn more about how the LL file system (and linux generally) is organized, could someone tell me where the downloaded *.deb packages are stored, as well as the linux kernel packages, on the LL file system, in my case LL3.8 ?

Many thanks for any help with this

  Install Falkon 3.0.1 or 3.1
Posted by: Paul74 - 12-15-2019, 09:35 AM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (4)

Hello,


I am using LinuxLite 4.4 64 bits and Falkon 3.0.1.
I saw Faklon 3.1 is now available ont the falkon.org site.
But using Synaptic, only Falkon 3.0.0 is listed.
I also try to install Falkon Appimage 3.0.1 but it doesn't work (other users have the same problem using Debian or Ubuntu distros).


How to solve this problem ?


Thanks in advance for your ideas and help.

  Lite 3.8 update failure
Posted by: lewisw62 - 12-11-2019, 02:27 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (3)

Hi Everyone

I have a complete update failure of a 32 bit Lite 3.8 machine that mentions an ip address and 'main i386 packages'. I have another similar machine that is still updating perfectly connected to the same router. Can anyone suggest a remedy? Here is the update failure log:
