I'm a noob and just started my old Linux computer for the second time today. My sister was in the hospital for over 4 months and I had to stop what I was doing after she went in.  She has also been in the nursing home for about 1 month now. I don't remember what all I tried to do with it. I'd like to get it connected to the internet. I have a cable from my motherboard to my modem I guess is what you call it and I'm not able to figure out how to get connected to the internet. The modem is an Motorola MT7711 if that helps. I don't know what version of Linux Lite I'm using though because I forgot to write it down. If it's going to be very difficult, maybe I'll take the desktop somewhere and have someone look at it. I'm 70 years old and not that good with computers.

I can RDP from my Lite Linux machine  into a Windows 10 on my local network with no issues , but when I try using a VPN (which appears stable) and my mobile phone as a hotspot I get a 'Remmina lost connection to RDP ' error.

I would appreciate any help.

Thanks

Hi guys, sorry for my bad ENGLISH, Im from Chile.

I want to buy it this WebCAM "Cámara web Philco W1152 Full HD 30FPS", in requirements indicates supports "Linux with UVC 2.6.26".

Now i'm using Linux Lite 6.6

What do you think guys? it will work?

THANKSS :wave

hi, first of all im new to everything linux

im trying to install linux lite on a old laptop, a 2011 HP ProBook 6560b, so far i followed the install tutorial on linux lite website: downloading ios, writting the iso on a usb stick, booting with usb stick, booting on live system then installing linux lite following the instruction

im trying to only put linux as the only operation system on this laptop, so i installed using ''erase disk and install linux'' option, after finishing the install program made me restart the pc and remove the usb stick

now when it boot it show intel ® boot agent then 2 code appear:

PXE-E61 : Media test failure, check cable
PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel boot agent

then another page:

BootDevice Not Found

Please install an operating system on your hard disk

Hard disk - (3F0)

tpm is enabled
vmx is enabled
i made sure the hard drive is the first boot option in the legacy list
i tryed pressing Esc then f9 for boot list on startup and selected hard drive, same thing

UEFI is not enabled : when i enable it the computer only show system error when booting and seem to be in a restart-system error loop.

anyone know a fix/what i do wrong? i tryed reinstalling linux lite a couple time toggling ''updates and other software'' option on and off is doesnt change anything

i also tryed formating the hard drive in gparted before installing linux lite and it didnt change a thing.

Lenovo V15 ADA laptop with NMVe SSD and Windows 11 Home PC. Secure boot is off.

I shrunk the Win11 and then installed LL 6.0 no updates with /, /home & data partitions all ext4.
Booted OK into Windows and LL 6.0 via Grub.

Then I changed the data partition to NTFS, changed the desktop appearance and icon style and did a system update.
Then as requested I rebooted but it failed to boot with:

I recently installed Linux Lite on my Chromebook 3100 which has 16 GB storage, and since ChromeOS is a bigger OS it took up a lot of my Hard Drive. On Linux it knows that I have 16GB but it can't access it for whatever reason. I tried removing hardware write protection it's not protected with a screw. Any suggestions?

Gnome-boxes is probably the easiest virtualization/emulation software solution for new users. I have been using it for a month now on Linux Lite 6.6 and have had no issues at all. Give it a try if you are new to Linux. Its simplicity is quite comfortable.

Running LL 4.8.  I want to increase the time before the system goes to standby mode.  It is the mode after the display quits.  When I bring up the PM, it only stays on the desktop for about 1 second and then goes away.  Any other way to change these settings?

Thanks

Hi!
Ive been using Linux based OS's for about ten years. I currently use several machines with Linux Mint Cinnamon and Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy Jellyfish (silly name or what?).

Im a masochist, I dual boot with Windows 11 and I also run Virtualbox's for test driving stuff.

Recently I found LinuxLite and I really like it. Im running LL 6.6 in my VB now. It has run faultlessly so I am pretty certain that this OS will be a breath of fresh air for a couple of my lower spec laptops. I may even adopt it on a couple of my better models.

I see this system has been well thought out and incorporates some damn useful stuff. It saved me hunting trough synaptic and software manager.

Any rate.............

Thanks, and Ill be keeping an eye on the forum here for sure.

hi i have a asus t100taf, it has a baytrail cpu.

i did a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and it ended up messing up grub. so i can only get into the system with a recovery usb.  Because if i try to boot regularly i will end up at grub resucue.

this is the code i get when i try to run sudo apt-get grub-efi:
