  Xbox 360 controller giving conflict with the mouse
Posted by: TylerDurden - 11-21-2023, 01:42 AM - Forum: Games Support - Replies (1)

Friends, I have an Xbox 360 wireless controller, I installed the xpad and the controller works normally, but there is one problem: while I move the analog buttons, it controls the mouse. This really hinders me from enjoying Xbox Cloud. :012:  How to resolve this? Thank you very much in advance.

  Network speeds differ according to boot source
Posted by: Earthenware - 11-20-2023, 08:51 AM - Forum: Network - Replies (10)

Here’s a weird one.  I’ve used LL versions 1 through 5 and never seen this before.

I recently bought a new PC. I’d prepared an LL 6.6 Live USB Boot drive ahead of time.

When I boot from the Live USB and use Chrome, I get full internet speed.  I can watch YouTube videos fullscreen at 1080p60fps with no dropped frames.  Even 1440p works fine, although 4K does start to stutter a little (which may be more to do with my integrated CPU).

However…

With LL 6.6 installed, everything works fine EXCEPT network speeds. YouTube videos now struggle to play at 480p, sometimes dropping to 360p and I’ve even seen 240p.

Internet speed tests reveal that, instead of the 40mbps that I would normally see, I’m lucky to get more than 2mbps.

This is consistent and repeatable. It occurs with every browser (Chrome, Brave and Firefox).

The only reason I can think of for this is that different ethernet driver(s) are being used on the Live USB and the installed version. I tried another Llinux version to test this (MX) and the results are the same.

Does anyone have an idea what’s going on and how I can fix this?

  Add terminal commands to LinuxLite iso
Posted by: coderlen - 11-19-2023, 06:44 PM - Forum: Other - No Replies

I have LinuxLite as one of several Linux OSs on a USB, using Ventoy. I would like to have the terminal command "chntpw" as part of the iso. This command is not part of LinuxLite, but I need it to be on the iso so that I can help people who have forgotten their password and need access to their laptop. The "chntpw" command allows me to delete the current Windows password, which allows the user to access their laptop again, without a password. They can then choose to create a password within Windows, if they so desire.

In other words, I need to be able to insert my USB into a laptop, and have the LinuxLite live USB come up, with the "chntpw" command already installed on the USB. That way, I don't need to have Internet access to download the chntpw command.

So, if there is a way to add a command to the iso before copying it to the USB, I need to know how to do that.

Thanks.

  Major issue with the Linux Lite 6.6 and GTX 660 (not sure if bug).
Posted by: Zapmaster - 11-16-2023, 08:18 AM - Forum: Security & Bug Fixes - Replies (1)

So I just updated my dad's PC from 4.8 with a fresh install of 6.6. And whatever the default GPU drivers are would cause screen glitching in about 5-10 minutes and then a freeze. This was fixed by installing Nvidia's official driver 390 for the GTX 660. Possibly a major bug for people trying the OS, as those especially new to Linux would most likely have no idea how to trouble shoot this or change drivers via terminal. Opening Chrome would cause an automatic freeze as well. The screen was also glitching midway through the install. Just posting this in case it helps, as I think this is a great OS. My senior dad has been using it since 3.x days, so thank you for the Linux Lite. With the 390 drivers everything works perfectly.

  User Manager wont create new user?
Posted by: Bandito Dorito - 11-16-2023, 03:17 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (2)

HI, new here, and need some help lol.

currently having an issue with the user manager. i'm trying to add a new user for a gmod server but for some reason i get either an error message saying "it was not possible to add user 'gmod server'. System message: b". " or the 'select user' box goes from my primary account to blank.

I did try using the terminal but it resulted in the system telling me the many uses for the 'user' command lol.

If this is spam i apologies, any help would be welcome, thanks in advanced.

  errors in Brazilian Portuguese translation
Posted by: lopandolfo - 11-12-2023, 05:53 PM - Forum: Security & Bug Fixes - No Replies

Hello, everyone!
I noticed a translation error in Brazilian Portuguese language. When you right click in the desktop, the option "Buscar aquii..." should be "Buscar aqui..." or even "Buscar aqui". The second "i" is a mistake. As you can see here: https://prnt.sc/60xTCv_iPeuO

Also, when you go to Control Panel, some elements shouldn't be translated because they loses their meaning. For example, the "Lite Sounds" element is translated to "Sons Leves". It's a bad translation because it's not intuitive. As a Brazilian Portuguese native speaker, would be better "Lite Sounds" or "Sons Lite". And, for the "Lite Widget", "Widget leve" Is not a good translation. Should be "Lite Widget". Everything that is related to the Lite system should have "Lite" and not "Leve". Image: https://prnt.sc/RQjMsb3T6plM

And should have an alias to the Control Panel named "Painel de Controle" because it is super intuitive and it just doesn't exist, as you can see here: https://prnt.sc/h-Q0TqP8Z5Ra

I'm enjoying the Linux Lite experience and it is a great OS. I would be pleasured to make this project even better. Smile

  Webcam HD resolution appears with a lower resolution and with too much "squares"
Posted by: Carlos Bernardino - 11-11-2023, 09:36 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (5)

Hello everybody,

My Webcam HD resolution appears with a lower resolution and with too much "squares". In Windows, the Webcam worked fined because it had the official drivers, but in this OS Linux Lite, when I saw the resolution of the Webcam with a videocall from Facebook to me from my mother, i become scared!

Exist any fix to put the resolution in HD?

Thanks and Regards!
