Good day everyone, I am new here, and also new with Linux Lite.
Recently, I try to install Linux Lite 3.8 onto my old netbook - Acer Aspire One with 2 GB RAM, Graphic card GMA 500.
Windows XP was installed, and when I boot it from USB/ DVD (extern), I can only reach the Linux Lite install menu, after I press enter it freezes; since I have also tried waiting for 5 hours, I am sure it wasn't processing.
The same fate when I try installing ubuntu MATE (install menu > Enter > game over).

From what I have searched online, it seems to be a graphic card failure; another case could be ACPI problem - could anyone suggest a solution?

Thanks in advance!

Video hello from Linux Lite Debian Edition.

Box is HP 32bit Debian i686 PAE, 1 gig Ram, 3 gig CPU Pentium 4. Video not perfect done with simplescreenrecorder on the 32bit box, matroska container. Tried to do it on it my big machine via vnc but disconnected when root was put in over the network. to show functions remotely.

En menú Whisker en la sección 'My Computer' estan los elementos: File System, Home, Documents, Downloads, Music Pictures, Public, Templates, Videos, sin embargo sólo 'File System' y 'Home' funcionan los otros no he logrado hacer que funcionen, al menos en español.

Me sale por cada elementos el dialogo:
"No se puede detectar el esquema URI de "____".

No es un sólo equipo, tengo tres equipo y todos tienen el mismo problema.

Quien ha podido reparar este inconveniente, tal vez es un problema con la traducción ya que luego de eso cambian las carpetas de usuario a Documentos, Descargas, Música, Imágnes, Público, Plantillas y Vídeos. y pensandolo bien, el menú 'My Computer' no se traduce, queda en Ingles.

He tratado de editar cada submenu por ejemplo: "exo-open ..launch FileManager ~/Documentos/ " ya que tenían "exo-open Documents", pero igual no me funciona, me sigue saliendo 'No se puede detectar el esquema URI de «Documents».' o " 'Unable to detect the URI.scheme of "Documents".'

Al usar el comando desde una terminal si me funciona: «exo-open --launch FileMAnager ~/Documentos», pero si lo agrego en el menú no me funciona.

Que puedo hacer, que me aconsejan, como puedo rehacer esta parte (con iconos incluidos) o repararla.

Desde ya muchas gracias.

Is there something I should do or just continue to wait for a fix?

I have found what looks like a good alternative to Klavaro (Klavaro is package that is available through synaptic package manager HOWEVER Klavaro currently has a bug and doesn’t open) so I found TIPP10.

I am new to LL, running 3.4 and very happy with it. I’m looking for a touch typing program so that the youth who use these older computers with LL 3.4 can learn how to type to prepare themselves for University whereby knowing how to type properly will save them time.

I found a Linux compatible program and here is the link explaining how to add it.  I have some questions that I’m hoping someone can answer as I’d like to try adding it to one of the computers this weekend and if successful will add it to others.

This is the link that discusses installation:
https://www.tipp10.com/doc/html/en/conte...html#linux

QUESTIONS:
1) the pertinent section is 3.4 on the page however I’m unsure if I am able to do installation via package manager or if I must do it manually.  Unfortunately the two links it provides for installation instructions take me to a German site.
Installation with package manager speaks of Ubuntu and (K)ubuntu - dumb question I know, but is LL 3.4 Ubuntu? Will I be able to use the instructions it shows there using package manager?

2) IF I have to go manually do I simply follow the instructions for manual installation or is there anything more specific I need to know to do?

I will experiment on one computer and if I run into trouble I will revert to an earlier “systemback point”!

Suitable for Linux Lite 4 with 'correct' letter 'N'...

Original versions with a 'pointy' letter 'N' (Forum logo):

if you are using a site that uses the kannanda font (such as https://www.news18.com/world/) you will need to install the package
language-pack-kn but close any browsers first and reopen them in case your pc crashes during the update
