Long story, I'll try to make it short.

Dual boot system.  Linux Mint, Linux Lite.  

The updated Nvidia drivers messed up my MINT, and through some help from their forum I was able to repair it.  But now when I try to boot to LITE I am unable because of a problem with Nvidia drivers.  I am totally lost and hope that I might get help repairing it so I don't have to do a fresh install.

I CAN access the LITE file system using MINT.

Thank you

In an effort to both clean up unnecessary Menu entries and consolidate, the two Mintstick apps have been rolled into one. Lite Updates will take care of everything for you. We've added our 'Lite' touches and enhancements with additional features, and consistent UI theming. Enjoy.

very new to linux light; after i installed to toshiba tecra r850 i could not update from linux lite repository

i. so i added the apt key with :
       curl -fsSL https://mirror.clarkson.edu/linux-lite/l...eyring.gpg  | gpg --dearmor | sudo tee /etc/keyrings/linuxlite-archive-keyring.gpg > /dev/null

       and the entry in /etc/sources.list.d to correspond to that key, then was successful in the apt update; apt upgrade

I am wondering if this is correct ? what would you do ??

ii. i second issue i am having (which may be related to keys) also. I am not able to sync my firefox account ?. In particular i am not receiving the confirmation email from firefox when trying to logon. i get that for almost any other ubuntu i have employed.

Hello. 👋 Good day to you all.

Please help me resolve an issue I'm experiencing with LinuxLite v7.8 on my Lenovo X220 laptop using a live USB. Attached is a screenshot asking for a username and password, even though I've never set one before. Is there a solution?

Thank you very much for your response, and warm regards from Indonesia. 😊

With the release of LL 8.0, the Shift+Ctrl+Escape keyboard shortcut doesn't work.  The System Monitor application in LL 8.0 is now called Lite-System Monitor, so the Command to fix the shortcut has to be changed from /usr/bin/system-monitoring-center to lite-system-monitor.

When I select the "Encrypt system" option during the Partitions portion of the setup, the LL8.0 Calamares installation wizard keeps ending with a "bootloader installation error code 1" error.  After a long process to get beyond that, I was able to boot LL 8.0, but only to a BusyBox v1.37.0 (initramfs) prompt, and I just didn't feel like going through the process to overcome that hurdle.

It appears checking the "Encrypt system" option during the Partitions portion of the setup isn't working as smoothly for LL8.0 as it has in past versions.

How to open

Just so you know.

Lite Tweaks now has Automatic Updates feature.



All other Lite applications received UI enhancements.

Help.  I get this error when trying to update software:

Hi there. I'm a relatively new user and I'm really enjoying the new goodies (updated kernels, gtk apps, xfce version).

However, I wanted to point out a default behavior that (unless I did something wrong myself) feels a bit reckless: the update appears to have overridden my user's .bashrc. My .bashrc is a symlink to a git repo (a common practice), so this even propagated through my config repo.

In my opinion, system upgrades should only change system files (and leave behind backup copies if they could have been manually modified).
