I have recently discovered a means using conky to overlay animated images on the desktop.
Adapting code found here, https://dolys.fr/forums/topic/lanceur-anime-bureau/,
I was able to contrive a few desktop animations like this one:


Been wanting to do this for a long time.

Several variations are seen here: http://www3.telus.net/someubuntufreebies/desktops.html

hi guys I know that this is so offtopic that I would have to post it in offtopics offtopic (if there was a one ) anyway i am looking for a new phone and I can say that my needs are diffrent from anyother ones need I mean I hardly ever use camera twice *a month* so if you gave me two phones having exactly the same specs but one is cheaper by 20 dollars and have worse camera, I will choose it, anyway I can say that I need a big battery and big storage  and ram not alot more,
------the reason I am posting this here is (1) I am not part of any other forum (2) I think there might be a phone spec in this forum somewhere
anyway thanks for your patience and happy to hear your thought
PS currently the top smartphone and the phone that has the biggest chance of winning is the Xiaomi redmi note 4 (have a phone that you think can beat the rn4, just post it below)

Has anyone noticed the contradiction on DW relating to Parted Magic? The large blue coloured screenshot clearly shows under the Parted Magic logo, "a free partitioning tool" but Parted Magic has not been free for a very long time! OR, have I missed a free updated version somewhere?

Hi Linux Lite community,
atm I use Linux Lite from DVD on Lenovo T420 s 240ssd and 16GB memory.
Little experience with Linux, browsing and youtube on others computers when visiting theirs and reading on this forum fortnightly since summer 2017.
I have read the rules and supplied guide.
I am British born, ethnically I am Chinese.

Is there any way to resize and darken the text for desktop windows?

I was using Mint 18.3 with Xfce.  When right clicking on an installed USB flash drive while in Caja file manager and choosing eject, a large notification appears on the upper right hand corner of the monitor saying something like......'It is now safe to remove drive'




Would it be possible to add this feature to Lite?


Thanks

Last week, I had to take Linux lite 3.6 off my laptop and reinstall it, due to a crash after installed and restarting after updates.


When I closed the lid previously my laptop, it would temporary shutdown, leaving one light flashing at the front.It always asked for my password when the lid was reopened.


Now my laptop is being strange. At the weekend if I closed the lid, it would not ask me for my password when opening the lid. My settings for closing the lid were set to lockscreen in the power manager. A friend and I could not understand this but in the end I changed the setting to suspend and then changed it back to lockscreen. This worked and it now asks for my password!


I still have an issue though. Two lights on the front of my laptop remain on and it makes low level noise as if still running. I would like it to operate as before, quiet with only one light flashing. Any ideas?


Thank you for taking the time to read and I would appreciate any help offered.


P.S. I am a novice and my knowledge is basic.

i have linux lite 3.6 installed, and all is updated.
desktop PC , AMD 64bit
8 GB memory.

i have open shot video editor 1.4.3,
are there any newer versions ?, this version of this video editor is buggy.
plus i tried cinelerra-cv, kdenlive, dont like them, buggy as well, lol, i like open shot for windows , but hoping to get it to work on linux lite 3.6 .

i just want to add iamge clips, video clips, split video and delete the parts i dont want , and so on, nothing fancy.

Yes I did. I bought a MacBook Pro. BUT WHY they asked. Read on...

So we target Windows users primarily. But, we'd also like people who use other proprietary OS's such as Mac OS to try, and hopefully replace their current OS.
The only way I could find to economically (via your generous donations and Ad revenue) test Linux Lite with Windows and on Mac hardware was to buy a Mac.

One computer to do it all. Now I can:

- Test AMD graphics drivers (nVidia drivers are tested on another PC)
- Test Dual/Triple boot LL, Windows, MacOS.
- Test LL on actual Mac hardware.
- Have a portable computer.


Here it is:

MacBook Pro 15.4" - Early 2011

So I have been frugal, at the expense of my beliefs - I took one for the team.

I'm off to shower now, I feel a little dirty. Hold me
