I have recently set up some nice tools for getting US stocks and crypto-currency prices in a terminal display window in LL. I've written an easy to follow tutorial for installing the tools. You can find it online at the link below.

Have 2 of these.


https://www.ebay.com.au/p/SATA-IDE-HDD-U...717&chn=ps


Works in Windows 7 & 10.


Whether connected via Esata or USB the entry in thunar for the drive has a spiney thing appear next to it but never loads the contents of a 3.63gb (in real terms) sata drive (WD Green WD40EZRX)


Have updated iscsi and the result is the same.


Cheers.

Using an Epson XP-400 printer scanner and LL 3.8. Printer OK both 32 bit OS and 64 bit OS with usb. Scanner OK with 32 bit OS wireless but fails with 64 bit OS states unable to find scanner. I have spent hours trying to find a solution but have not found any other reports of a similar situation.
I am a windows refugee and have been using LL for a year or more so not an expert in linux.


DELL Vostro 1510 laptop, LL 3.8 dual boot 32 bit and 64 bit, 250Gb SSD hard drive and 3Gb of RAM


Thanks for any help Tony

I have a high speed connection 60Mbps. Connection to internet OK. What do I do now?

--#You can just skip to the first comment to reach the tutorial

Quote:Read This Its Important :
Everything in this tutorial is tested and my approach here is safety first I will tell you if there is any tweak or harm in the tutorial although generally its all safe try to read slowly and take a breath every now and then,
completing this tutorial will make your os both  faster and will remove many hassles from you in days to come also remember to always ask others if you faced any problem, in general, you will save yourself some time and hassle lets fix the myth of Linus being a hard operating system

Before you start:
1- please reply if you found any mistakes
2- these settings are tailored for Linux Lite 4.x only using on other Xfce based OSes won't provide you with the full start and using on other DE (LXDE) will just cause errors. it may work on newer or older LL versions but for now, I only guarantee it to work in 4.x
3-Notes written in RED means that they aren't stable or can cause harm although others written in black are just fine and ones are written in Green means that they are user specific (old laptops only, modern PC only, etc )
So recently I installed Linux Lite 4.0 and then there was some stuff that I usually do when installing a new OS (installing updates installing a browser fixing a known bug or boosting performance etc) and usually I use this site which offers very good tutorials (https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxt...st-xubuntu) but then every Linux OS is different and that's why they made a tutorial on installing Xubuntu Ubuntu etc instead of creating just one .
then I thought like if there is no any such tutorial for Linux lite and I have just installed LL why not make a one myself I'm sure this will be useful for newcomers as that following the tutorial above will result in errors because it isn't tailored for our OS.
##A Little Notice: although I will write this tutorial in a form of steps feel free to skip any step if you don't want that or if it isn't for you (coloured green for example)

Q & A

Why did you say that this is only for Linux Lite isn't LL based on Ubuntu so it should work on Ubuntu and other Ubuntu-based OSes?
A: there's some truth in the last statement but still LL is a custom OS that has many differences, for example, the lite apps which we use a lot during the tutorial and also the location of many programs may differ from OS to another that's why the tutorial focuses on Linux lite only

I'm facing trouble keeping with your tutorial /I can't find the option that you have?
A: You should read carefully especially the words between the brackets "()" or you can always write a reply and I will try to reply to you and help

Why did you write this tutorial here and not in a blog etc?
A: I don't really care for the profit in such things, when I first started using Linux I was obligated to do so because my laptop was too old to handle windows and at that time all I needed was such tutorial, I'm sure that it will be useful for someone someday.

Where did you get that pictures from?
A: Pictures were captured from my desktop and uploaded to Flickr

I have an older 32 bit laptop which I've pushed as far as as it can go (meaning LL 3.8 using forcepae) and installed TeamViewer Host so I could use it as a headless "server".

Unfortunately, TeamViewer host only seems to exist for Linux starting with version 13 but installing TeamViewer 13 (of any sort) on this machine results in all the windows being either transparent (so I see a copy of what was under the window when it opened) or solid white.  :-(

A little web searching suggested this had something to do with a GTK cache but I know nothing about that and the "delete the cache fies" suggested didn't work for me as the path suggested doesn't exist on this machine.

Using the TeamViewer CLI I was able to get the machine ID and can start a connection to it from another machine but with solid white windows I can't see what the password is supposed to be!  While I can set a fixed password I would still like to be able to get into the GUI if possible.

Has anybody else run into this issue and do you have any suggestions for how to get around it?
And yes - I realize I could install full TeamViewer 12, which DOES work correctly, and set it to always start but I thought I'd check here first to see if anybody else has found a way to resolve this.

Here is the thing. When you buy a brand new computer, It does not matter which operating system
you install into it - your new system must obey the OS, which is - in many cases - years behind
your shining new hardware.

This is one very good reason to use older hardware (5-10 years old or so), since people who make
device drivers and such for those chips and motherboards, have had enough time to
fine-tune every little detail.

And that is why LL, which is an OS for "older hardware" runs so fast and smooth in these older laptops.
The drivers are finally ready!   But people who buy their laptops now, will need to wait a good amount
of time until their new hardware has good software support.

A new computer is of course a new computer, it has it's benefits and it will probably run LL crazy fast and smooth.
However, there is no way out of the fact that their capacity must wait until the software catches up.

Just my humble opinion

Пользуюсь Linux Lite 4.0 уже пару недель, дистрибутив очень нравится. Но заметил одну неприятную вещь: в некоторых приложениях (в Double Commander и PlayOnLinux в частности) наблюдаются проблемы с отображением некоторых элементов управления:


При смене темы оформления на любую другую все отображается нормально, но очень нравится именно Adapta. Возможно, кто-нибудь сталкивался с подобной проблемой и может подсказать как с ней справиться или по крайней мере указать, в каком направлении искать решение. Заранее спасибо.
