| What is the command to output internet/Wi-Fi settings? |

Hi, I'm having occasional intermittent Wi-Fi issues on the laptop that I installed LL 4.0. It occasionally says it can't reach a website (like the message you get if wi-fi is not available) but when I hit reload on that same page, the page loads fine the second time around. I never had those problems previously on LL 3.8 for this same laptop, or currently on my main machine on 3.8.
Initially I assumed the outages was due to our Wi-Fi going out, but that hasn't been the case - I've had no problems with internet on my main machine. So here is my question:
For troubleshooting purposes, is there a command that I can use to output the Internet/Wi-Fi settings on either of my machines so I can see at a glance what these settings currently are? I'd like to run this command on both my machines (the LL 4.0 laptop where I'm currently experiencing issues vs the LL 3.8 machine that is doing fine). They are both on the same Wi-Fi, so it might help if I can see what the difference is in set-up/settings. I tried the man pages for ip-related commands but it wasn't clear to me which one(s) I'd need. Any help would be much appreciated thanks.

| Remove Camera SD card from computer card reader |

I've done a search for the answer and it must be something easy as I couldn't find any specific instructions for removing a camera SD card from my built-in computer card reader.
LL 4.o read the card beautifully & downloaded the photos with no problems but when I looked for a way to remove the card, I couldn't find one.
I probably need instructions for removing a flash drive also as I haven't tried using a flash drive yet!
Thanks in advance!

| Atheros AR3012 bluetooth adapter not found (linux lite 4.0) |

If you have the Atheros AR3012 (shipped in some lenovo laptops like the z50 that i have) and linux lite 4.0 or ubuntu 18.04, you might have a problem with the adapter, and if you use the command dmesg you are going to get this error:
[sup]bluetooth: hci0: don't support firmware rome 0x31010000[/sup]
I found this solution that solve that issue...
1. Add the ukuu repo to your system:
[sup]sudo add-apt-repository ppa:teejee2008/ppa && sudo apt update[/sup]
2. Install ukuu:
[sup]sudo apt install ukuu[/sup]
3. Install the kernel 4.16.9 with ukuu:
[sup]sudo ukuu --install v4.16.9 [/sup]
4. And finally reboot
The problem with the AR3012 is caused by the kernel 4.15.0 shipped with Ubuntu 18.04 and linux lite 4.0 and the unique kernel i found that solve that issue is the 4.16.9
pd: i'm not an english speaker so maybe the instrutions or the grammar is bad, sorry for that

Well, I tried to donate via PayPal but instantly it began to ask all kinds of personal information,
not just name and address, but unnecessary stuff about me.
If I have understood correctly the idea of PayPal being an 'easy way to pay',
then let it be. If they want to get rid of users who have used their services for
20 years - this is the way to do it.
I expected a few clicks, not half of a biography

| Fast disk I/O with ext4 HOWTO |
|

We all know, that Linux Lite is very fast Operating System and does not require modern
hardware. To get even more speed out of the system, there are very many tuning possibilities
and one of them is tuning some basic disk input/output operations.
This short HOWTO is for those users who use ext4 filesystem but there are many possibilities
for those users who use other filesystems too and if I have time, I will try to write more later.
One of the easiest ways to get more speed out of your disks is tuning the mount options.
This can be done by editing the /etc/fstab file.
You can see which options are currently in use by commanding (in Terminal window)
Not all of the options applied are visible this way but I'm sure you got the idea.
You may try these options first before applying them to the /etc/fstab file.
If you have more than one partitions, for example a separate /boot or /home
partition, then you may as well try using one of them first. For example, let's assume that
you have a separate /home partition in device /dev/sda2. Then you may try this ( and this is SAFE
if you do exactly as I tell here. And use the correct device name and don't make typos 
(To find out which device name is your /home, just examine the output of that 'mount | grep ext4' command).
First enter a root session, so that you don't have to type 'sudo' all the time. So, command:
Then unmount the /home partition ( if it is /dev/sda2 ) by commanding:
And now the speed-UP!
Code: mount -t ext4 -o defaults,noiversion,auto_da_alloc,noatime,\
errors=remount-ro,commit=20,inode_readahead_blks=32,delalloc,barrier=0 /dev/sda2 /home
Note that I could not write the whole command to just one line, so there is a '\' character, which tells the shell,
that the command will continue on the next line.
If everything went fine and you did not receive any messages, you may check the dmesg output like this:
and you should see the filesystem driver's message about this mount.
To mount your /home back with the defaults, command:
Code: umount /home && mount /home 2>&1
Of course this did not demonstrate how it actually speeds up reading and writing to disk but you may take time
to copy your /home full of files using the default mount options and the tuned options if you like to.
However these kinds of tunings show their full power just when they are applied to everyday use and especially
to the / partition - since the root partition is read and written most of the time.
Please don't expect too much, this (and similar methods) won't turn your ol'PC to a super-computer 
But you may see some difference after using the system for a while.
To apply these settings to your /etc/fstab, you need to edit that file and I suggest that you create a backup
copy of the file first:
Code: cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.bak
(and why not take a copy of it into a USB stick too...)
Then open your /etc/fstab with a text editor (nano /etc/fstab) and replace the old options, which are between
the text 'ext4' and the two numbers in the end. Here is an example from my /etc/fstab
(The / partition entry)
# / was on /dev/sda2 during installation
UUID=1e6ae380-25c3-40dc-b7ea-39d82488615a / ext4 Code: defaults,noiversion,auto_da_alloc,acl,user_xattr,noatime,errors=remount-ro,commit=20,inode_readahead_blks=64,delalloc
0 1
DO NOT APPLY these options into any others entries than ext4 !!
(Other filesystems have other mount options).
And every entry must remain in ONE line!
Lines beginning with a '#' character don't matter. You may write anything on those lines.
Again, it is just one line, but it broke to many when I wrote it here...
But as you see, the mount options are between the text 'ext4' and the two numbers in the end of the line.
When these options are written to the fstab file, they won't take effect until the filesystem is unmounted
and remounted again (or just remounted or just rebooted the computer).
WARNING: I cannot take responsibility of any data loss or similar. This small HOWTO is written for
those, who either have just made a fresh installation of Linux Lite and want to try this without loosing
more than maybe a new fresh installation. Or for those who can take responsibility of their own typos
and/or other mistakes.
These are everyday actions for system administrators and there is no 'magic' involved.
And by the way, nothing is free when it comes to performance and/or memory usage.
These mount options may use a bit more RAM memory but as you know, RAM is much faster
than disk - so in my opinion it is a fair deal if there is some extra RAM which just sits there unused
during everyday use of the computer.
Have fun - and please ask if you have questions..

Hi,
I am using Compaq NX 6110 laptop, which is an old celeron, with 1Gb RAM. I am noticing video lag. Means, the video does not stream smoothly, and gives a delayed frames. In other words it does not give me minimum 26f/s video. Though the audio is loading smoothly.
Browser user is Mozilla Firefox. Linux Lite version 3.0.
Can you help me to use this old laptop for video streaming?
Regards,
