Hey guys I'm very dumbfounded that I can't share links to the telegram group. They would love to read up on 4.0 but like me don't have time to login and check the forms. But here was an ? From on them why taptalk?

God not dead. He roaring like an lion.

hi guys actually i faced this issue in ll3.6 32bit and 64bit before heading to ll3.8 and hey i faced that problem too, the problem is that when opening some programs like Firefox or uget or terminal the cursor is working fine but when on desktop or another app (mostly the apps that came preinstalled ) it returns to a small white cursor which is really annoying and I faced it a lot so I assume that its not a software issue and that I can be fixed

ps: hey I found out that when I open mouse and touchpad and rechoose my cursor it works well until I restart , in other words for the cursor to work well I have to open mouse and touchpad every time I open the computer (temporary fix)

Hi,

BigDaddyLinux checking in. Installed Linux Lite 3.8 onto my laptop and figured I would introduce myself.

Hi everyone,

LETS DO THIS!

I'm now taking suggestions for new features in Linux Lite 4.0

What constitutes a good suggestion? (I'm going to number these so that I can help point out to those who make a suggestion that doesn't fit the below criteria)

1. An idea that benefits the majority. Personal ideas can be good, but remember, they are preferences personal to you.
2. Software, features, additions to existing software that will benefit most people.
3. New wallpapers: must be a minimum of 1080p, and less than 1mb, excellent quality (no pixelation) that has general appeal. Only png's and jpegs will be accepted and you must provide the actual source and accompanied license in a url.
4. Additions to the Help Manual. These are always welcome.
5. Avoid software that requires a PPA.
6. Cross platform software that computer users know of or use - must work on Mac Linux & Windows.

Example of a good suggestion:

I was thinking about adding a media multi converter to Lite Software. It will convert images, video, audio, documents etc. I think this is something that would benefit a lot of people.

What stays the same during a Series? (I'm going to assign a letter to these so that I can help point out to those who make a suggestion that doesn't fit the below criteria)

Usually the following:

a. Boot splash
b. Login screen
c. Grub
d. Default theme and icon set
e. Menu and menu structure
f. File manager, Terminal, Browser, Email client etc

I will read and consider every post in this thread. Please don't get disconcerted if I don't reply to your post. There is the chance I may think your idea would be better suited to the next Series for example.

A big thank you from me and the developers

From time to time, while using setup[1] (in signature below), I'll open an app such as LibreOffice Writer or say the Catfish file search tool and they freeze. At such times, when I drag the mouse across the screen, a trail of windows is left, a bit like the contrail of a jet aircraft - instead of a trail of exhaust, a trail of windows!

This morning the Firefox window froze (though I didn't get the contrail effect when moving the mouse), and the cross in the upper right hand corner was greyed out and wouldn't respond when I tried to close the window. So, I just opened a second Firefox window to allow me to continue working...

When the above has happened, I open HTOP to check what's going on, and usually find RAM and CPU activities are normal, i.e. they haven't gone up significantly, so I guess this excludes the possibility of an  unwelcome malware visitor ..!?

Has anyone else experienced this, and why does it happen?

I recently installed a third monitor and it was working fine.  I noticed though that every time I restarted my computer, I would have to fiddle with the display settings in order for it to work.  I would have to disable/re-enable the monitor, move the 3 around so that they were in the right order or some other things too in order for it to be the way I wanted it.  Those settings would never stick and finally now the last few times I started my desktop, I can't get anything to display on the third monitor.  The third monitor has always been labeled as a "digital display" and not the actual name.  But, when I got it working, it worked great.

I'm really not sure what's going on or why it works sometimes but not all the time.  I used to have linux mint and it worked fine with that. 

Here are some more details...

Hey

I can't seem to install ITunes under Wine for LL.
I did the following after some research:
https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu

Downloaded the ITunesSetuo.exe for 32bits from ITunes page.
Right click on it > Properties > Open with: Wine Windows Program Loader.

Double click on ITunesSetup.exe icon, after a while the ITunes installer launches it says:
"Gathering required information...
Status: Evaluating launch conditions"

Immediately a box appears saying:
"Install Failed
iTunes requires that your computer is running Windows 7 sp1 or newer"

Any help on this?
Thank you

Hi  I've used Linux Lite on a PC before and like it but now want to revive a perfectly good Mac Book Pro which is way past its "sell by date" - ie I've reached the maximum version of the O/S 10.6.8 and of course nothing works.  Because it is a sound machine and I don't want to throw it away. I would like both as a fun exercise and if successful as a working machine to install and run Linux.  One way (obviously) is to do a fresh OSX install and then run Parallels or Virtual Box but my preferred option is try to install Linux as the sole O/S on the machine.  I cannot find - but maybe haven't looked hard enough - any guidance.  So my question is does anyone have the experience? Be really glad to have any guidance that anyone can offer.  The PB is a 17" running an Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2.33Ghz - I think the processor is a 64-bit but that Apple have restricted it (EFI / Boot) to 32-bit.  What I want to try to achieve is to download and burn a bootable Linux Installer to use on the PB.  Thanks Kris.

I have LL v2.8, it runs without any problems and I intend to keep it until it reaches end-of-life in April of 2019. But I'm considering kernel and processor microcode updates.

As it turns out, intel-microcode package has never been installed, although the machine has an Intel processor (old Core2Duo). The kernel is 3.19.0-33-generic:
