Hello everyone ! I am new to linuxlite os .
I wanted to update the system .But my network system is behind proxy . I do not know how to set proxy for whole system .
please guide me ,Thank you.

OK, kind of a *ix noob here.  I did google this and found a lot of useless info already, mostly on askubuntu (it IS a bigger community and tends to come up...  and since LL is derived from U) I am a long-time windows user so forgive me if I use the win terms.

Want to start trying out some VPNs, mostly know how it works.  On the network context menu, it has "VPN Connections", with a sub menu "Add a VPN Connection", but it is greyed out.  I ran this CL to install, as per instructions from the provider:

sudo apt-get install openvpn network-manager-openvpn network-manager-openvpn-gnome

(yes, I know xfce)
and

sudo apt-get install network-manager-vpnc network-manager-openvpn pptp-linux

All of which were already installed.  I found the firewall applet, turned off, no effect.  I should note that I fiddle with my config (i.e. firmware router settings) more than seems appropriate, so could be related.  pptp-linux is also installed.  I think I am using LL 4.0 as I just ran apt-get upgrade yesterday.  When I edit the connection, and try to enable the "Automatically connect to VPN", it lets me fill the check-box, but never saves nor does it allow me to use the pull-down options (may have to be set up first?).

Halp.

Does it have a Playstore like Android where I can see a selection of applications, there names and their uses? I tried looking at Synaptics but I got more confused since I am not familiar with anything I found there  :'(

A friend donated a new Acer C731 chromebook to me to use with the youth I help in South Africa. Since we do not often have internet access I am wanting to convert it to run Linux Lite 3.8 like I have two other Chromebook, however I am battling to do so!

I have successfully loaded SeaBIOS (legacy boot) and set the gbb flags. OS verification is OFF and I have enabled USB booting.

However, when I put in my USB stick the boot menu gives me the option to boot from the USB, I choose it, the USB light flashes, a small Linux lite menu shows in the upper right corner (although the countdown to automatically launching does not countdown), I can choose run Linux lite, the LL feather logo comes up (to fill the screen) then after several seconds a black screen with some script shows for a very short period (I haven't yet been able to get a photo of what this script says, but will try) then it goes black and shows a flashing "-" and the light on the USB goes out. Nothing happens after that.

I have usb boot enabled on it as well "OS verification OFF".  This same USB works when I put it in one of the other chrome books to confirm it works.

Any ideas of what I can do to get this Acer to allow the USB to boot so that I can load and then install LL if all is fine?

Thanks in advance, Janet

How can I help to Linux Lite turkish translation ? (Or do you have a plan like translating linux lite to turkish.

I'm trying to use RDP to connect from a Windows machine to my LL 4.0 box.
I  installed Xrdp, confirmed the port in the /etc/xrdp/xrdp.ini file, opened the port in the firewall, and started the service with "sudo service xrdp restart".
When connecting from my Windows machine I get an xrdp "Just connecting" window (so I know I'm getting to the box) where I select Session: "X11rdp", enter my username and password, and click OK.
Then it sits at a teal screen for a while (~4 min) then gives me a message showing:connecting to sesman ip 127.0.0.1 port 3350sesman connect oksending login info to session manager, please wait...login successful for display 10started connectingconnection problem, giving upsome problem
Checking the xrdp.log file I see a bunch of closed socket messges.
Any suggestions on what I'm missing?
Thanks.

Hi all,


I got a question. My previous new laptop did die after a week and now got a new one. This got a 128gb ssd and a 1tb hdd installed
At the moment windows 10 is installed on the ssd. I would like to keep windows 10 but move it to the hdd


What is the best solution of moving windows 10 to the hdd and then installing linux lite on the ssd?


Solved it by only installing Linux Lite
