Greetings all.
I have been gradually repurposing an ancient relic with a fresh offline install of Linux Lite. I have realized that I am one device short to give it wifi capability. Acer Aspire one notebook, no usb 3.0, and internal network card has long since been dead.
This is kind of an easy forum cause I'm only looking for suggestions (steps may vary). One thing I know out of the box is that rigging a usb wifi adapter to work on linux is a nightmare. I have yet to decide on a device from the store, and wonder which kind if adapter stick plays nice with linux. If anything, I would like for this to be more of a planner to make this less of a headache before beginning. I attempted to get a wifi stick to work once in the past on a different system and despite many terminal instructions was never able to, so I can sense what I'm in for.
I know the steps may change depending on which device (adapter) is used, but that's why I wanted to ask here. Anyone recommend something universal on what adapter i should order?
If it's all the same in the end, is there any specific forum or instruction page that perfectly illustrates step-by-step how to properly install any wifi adapter? {Please assume that usb 3.0 is not possible and that the wifi adapter in question does not have linux-specific installation media/disk}.
Note: it is possible to hook directly into Ethernet for any updates, just not permanently. I have not yet connected this 'fresh' install of Linux Lite to the internet. If I need to update anything before installing the stick using Ethernet, please let me know.
Other relevant Info:
ACER modle: Aspire One D257 - 13404
Lite version: 3.8 (32 bit)
> The internal network card adapter inside the unit is 100% fried, so instructions on internal network cards should not be included as valid solutions on this post.
Hi everyone,
I'm just reporting that the last update introduced a little :banghead bug :60:
I no longer have the video display on Youtube, Dailymotion etc with Brave browser, same with Google chrome.
But it still works fine on Firefox. I saw a similar topic but it's not related to tweaks for me (since I didn't use it)
Audio still works fine, images too it's only the video display that is fully white.
I hope it will be fixed soon, anyway have a good day all :wave
I tried LXLE (looking for a LTS based distro) and there was not an easy/easily found way to choose my USB wifi adapter which has better range and which I also want to test for use with a laptop that I hope to use a light distro for. I have a Qualcomm Atheros in my Dell desktop (168c:0032) and a Realtek based USB adapter, 8812BU (0BDA:B812) - when I type in inxi-N it showed the Qualcomm as up and Realtek as down, but I couldn't find CLI instructions on how to enable the Realtek USB adapter even if it recognizes it's there and has a corresponding driver. My understanding is it's now supported through the kernel right? I had another USB adapter which was recognized but I think it was in down status as well and it just defaults to the Qualcomm.
If I use Linux Lite, which I am guessing may be better supported anyway is there built-in tools that can make this easy? Or can I install a GUI network manager of some kind to make the Realtek adapter work?
Since installing the lastest updates this morning video is no longer displayed in You Tube on the Chrome Browser. This was working perfectly prior to the update as I was watching You Tube video's on Chrome prior to performing the update.
When in You Tube I can see the thumbnail size video if I slide the curser along the progress bar underneath the main video window but the main video window remains blank wether I select Default view, Theatre Mode or Full Screen within You Tube . The same problem arises with video in Vimeo on Chrome
This problem appears to be specifically related to the Chrome Browser as everything works fine in both You Tube and Vimeo when using Firefox.
Is there a quick fix for this problem or are we going to have to wait for a further update to fix the problem ?
when i open my laptop linux lite wants a password to log back in. the dialogue is invisible so i have to restart the whole computer.
Is there a way of disabling needing a password upon sleeping and waking?
I disabled it for when the computer first boots up but it still needs a password upon waking
Hello,
someone can help me?
Tks

I've been following this thread on the Mint forum but it's gone off track like they usualy do there. Recent updates have added an opt-in for pro on my Linux Lite 6.6.

Quote:Previously Ubuntu did not provide security patches for "Universe" repo packages (instead relying on upstream patches to happen when they happen). The Ubuntu security team are now producing in-house security patches for these packages, but only where Pro has been opted into (which is free for personal use).Will opting into pro cause any issues with my system i/e live kernel patches etc?
