I've completed the tutorial for Linux Lite to Windows 10 connections with SSH, SFTP, Samba, RDP, and Remmina. I've covered some basic Windows 10 security for the connections as well. It's intended to be another help resource for new Linux Lite users who want to safely network to their Windows 10 machines. See the link below:

Hi,

[size=1.45em]I'm not a fan of PPAs at all.[/size]  Especially if they offer software that is already available in the Ubuntu repositories (just not the latest version, perhaps).  So I have a question about removing them:

Is it safe to remove selected PPAs that I don't think I need or want?  How much of the essential Linux Lite software comes from a PPA?  Are there essential PPAs that I should not remove or disable?

Thanks in advance for thoughtful replies!

I would like to replace the tags on one of my forum threads, so that I can more accurately reflect the content.
After clicking Modify to get into edit mode, overwriting existing tags doesn't seem to work. Also, I tried clicking on the crosses of the tags at the bottom of the thread to delete them, but that doesn't seem to work either. 

Many thanks in advance for any help on this.

i have a problem with lite 3.8 and mint 17.3:  booting them in one of my machines, sound does not run.  does not recognize speakers.  alsa runs fine, i think the problem is caused at pulseaudio.  booting that machine using tinycore linux, with alsa and pulseaudio too, sound system runs fine with speakers.  that machine is toshiba nb110.  :-(

anyone can help with this error?

I found this problem when trying Linux Lite 4.2 Live ISO. First, I think this is not big deal. Then I install Linux Lite. After that, I still have this problem. I'm upset with this problem, I trying press "Fn + NumLK" key and it is success. But when booting up again, the problem appear again. Please help me, I don't have this problem when using Ubuntu and Lubuntu.

My system specs:
Asus Laptop Intel core i3

Hello, my name is Dito from Indonesia. I'm move from Lubuntu 18.04 LTS to Linux Lite on March 2nd. Before I'm using Lubuntu, Im using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS than upgrade to Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

I like this distro,I like the synaptic package manager is install in default. The UI is modern but still lightweight. I like the Lite Software in the setting panel, it is convenient.

Unfortunately, there is no Indonesian Source Mirror, not like Ubuntu. But I can use the Vietnam Mirror, and it is still fast. But, I have one little dissappointed, I experienced little problem when trying live iso and still see the problem after installing Linux Lite. I will make other post about that problem (or searching the forum, then make a new post).

Thank you for reading my little story. Have a nice day :-)

I am impressed with Linux Lite for its user friendliness and the life it has brought to a very old laptop - thanks.

Update has failed and displays the following error. I would appreciate any help you can give me to solve this thanks.

Hello,

I really need some help.  For whatever reason I struggle with samba every time I have to do anything with it.  This time though I am totally lost.  So I had an old P4 PC with an older version of Linux Lite that was set up as a media server.  After about 40 hours of messing with samba I got it to be visible and accessible by any computer on my network.  All was well until I upgraded to a new computer and installed the new version of Lite.  I can't get the network to work at all.  It can be seen by other computers but not accessed.  I have two hard drives in the computer.  On has the operating system and the other has the files I need to share on the network.  This is my smb.conf file
