  Why is there no ALTERNATE installer?
Posted by: skarecrow - 01-21-2024, 06:59 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - No Replies

I think there is alot of us that would love a smaller iso that maybe gives a more minimal install or a net install?
Im having loads of problems with the installer on many machines where it just chokes during install.. no errors.. just hangs .. forever.

  In Wi-Fi connection the IPv4 address is not assigned.
Posted by: r_bortone - 01-20-2024, 09:20 PM - Forum: Network - Replies (13)

This happened in the past with the previous release and successively with the last one .  Turning off the pc in "suspend" and then waking up makes networking working again.  I tried to assign fixed IP: in "connection information" IPv4 appears configured but the browser didn't retrieve web pages from the internet. I was forced to reinstall the last release 6.6 and initially it worked fine but since  some days  the problem proposed again.
Booting from the live cd, all works properly almost all the time.  Maybe it is an hardware fault but i dont know how to detect it (perhaps whith a diagnostic tool).

  Hello, I'm new
Posted by: sylviacar - 01-17-2024, 08:31 AM - Forum: Introductions - Replies (1)

Hello there, I'm a new user of LL 5.6, and I'm currently in the process of switching from Lubuntu to Linux Lite for our company's PC image. So far, Linux Lite has been performing exceptionally well on our older hardware. However, I've encountered some difficulties when creating a master image to use on other hardware, and I'm unsure where to seek assistance for my inquiries. If you could kindly direct me to the appropriate forum or platform to post my questions, I would greatly appreciate it.

  Customised folder Modified Date to also show Time
Posted by: Alan_Wilts - 01-15-2024, 10:32 PM - Forum: Desktop Customization - Replies (2)

Hi.  Is it possible to customised desktop folders to show both Modified Date and Time? Same would apply to Create Time.

Thanks

PS 1: I searched the web and this website and found nothing other than terminal commands to show/process by date and time

PS 2: Using LL 6.6 on an old PC booting from SSD with Clover - it flies!
