I have three computers, a desk top, a 17" laptop and a small laptop. They were all running LL 3.8. I use a package called rainlendar2 which is for a desktop calendar and event reminder. Probably no one on the forum has heard of it. This package ran happily on all three computers. Now I have upgraded the large laptop to LL 4.0 and suddenly, for no apparent reason, rainlendar2 just will not work. I have installed it via a deb file, and it reported that it was installed correctly. But, when I start it up nothing seems to happen. If I try again to see what happens I am asked if I want to start a second example as rainlendar2 seems to be already running. But there is no sign of it. If I run ps -e I can see a PID for it, so the computer seems to think it is running.

I really don't know where to look. Any suggestions please about where to go next please? I have not yet upgraded the desk top or the small laptop, so the package is working fine on them.

Hi,

Installed new version of Linux Lite (4.0) yesterday and KX repos. When I installed wine-rt and tried to start winecfg I get a message in terminal: internal error (and a long number). I have posted the same on linuxmusician forum also.

I went back to Lite 3.8 and everything is ok again.

Until v3.8 i had no problems with ll. Now with v4 my netbook takes up to 5 min to show the desktop. The good news are that when im inside, the speed is the one i had used to with the 3.8.
Any suggestions?

Greetings!

Since upgrading to Linux Lite 4.0, I came across a nasty problem. I used to connect to my home server through FileZilla (SFTP with keyfile), but now I can't, as FileZilla shows no network activity immediately after successfully connecting.

I posted about the problem on the FileZilla forums with some verbose logging information, and the FileZilla author concluded that I "have some faulty shell script installed on the server that displays welcome messages on non-login shells".

To be honest, I have no idea what this could mean. Aside from the port / keyfile related settings and such, I have not changed much of the openssh configuration, nor I have set any kind of welcome message. Could this be related to the info that's now printed in a terminal when it is launched (one of Linux Lite 4.0's new features)?

Any kind of help would be very appreciated! Thank you for reading.

Just attempted to install 4.0 on my HP 2750p (2570p?) laptop. It's been a while since I've done much more than update the laptop as I was still on 3.6. (I began w/2.2.) I couldn't install via USB so I burned the image on a DVD and tried it that way. Never could get the wifi to work (that's a MUST as I have very limited access to hardwiring) and once I rebooted, the laptop reverted back to 3.6.
I'm sure there's something simple I missed for either issue but can't think of what it could be. Any suggestions, please?

While trying to install 4.0 on my HP 2750p, I ran into some issues trying to get it to boot from my USB stick. See the BIOS boot options below.

Legacy Boot Order:SD cardUSB floppyNotebook Upgrade BayNotebook Hard DriveUSB Hard DriveNotebook EthernetUSB CD-ROMeSATA Drive
I've always installed from a CD/DVD (which is what I'm doing now) but figured I'd see if I could install from thumb drive instead so I could save my blank DVDs. I don't have an SD card slot nor do I have a floppy drive. I tried booting from SD card, USB floppy and USB Hard Drive. None of them seemed to want to boot from the thumb drive. For future reference, are there any suggestions? I've been on LL since about 2.2 and have no intentions of going back to Windoze (on my laptop...UEFI on my desktop so I don't have much choice)

What is the problem to this? (I tried in Ubuntu and worked perfectly)




EDIT: Same problem updating

I had 2 goes at installing LL 4.0 on my laptop (previously on 3.x). Seems to be working well now, thanks. Some good improvements. I'm still getting to grips with the system, so please excuse any mistakes.

I don't see anything that indicates Linux Lite during the bootup process. I do have a black screen during some of the bootup, and it has a sort of animated progress wheel near the center bottom. Is that normal? Is it the new bootup screen? If so, it is a nice improvement on the yellow screen with feather. But I'm confused because I don't have anything to indicate LL on bootup.

I also don't see any indication of where the current boot splash screen background is located in the file system. Does anyone know where it is? In 3.x it was in /usr/share/plymouth/themes/liteboot/ but now there is no liteboot folder.

Is what I'm seeing normal for LL 4.0?

Greetings! I have just installed a fresh new copy of Linux Lite 4.0 and it's great so far. I only ran in a couple of issues, most of which I have worked around, but this one...

Whenever I watch an HTML5 video in fullscreen (YouTube, Gfycat, etc), when I click the fullscreen button after watching a video, the Firefox windows goes back to an unmaximized window state, despite the window being maximized before going in fullscreen. It doesn't happen in Chromium, it didn't happen in Linux Lite 3.8, so... any help would be very, very welcome!

Also, in case the fix is easy... evince throws me segmentation faults whenever I try to start it. I'm using okular instead for now and it works fine, it's just not as lightweight...

Thank you for reading!

MS already is a substantial user of github so not much of a surprise, but still kinda sad in some ways.
