I looked at a similar post and almost exactly like that post there are no other choices for screen resolution except in this case: 640-480
I ran xrandr in terminal and this is what I got:
administrator@administrator-Aspire-5000:~$ xrandr
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 640 x 480, current 640 x 480, maximum 640 x 480 default connected 640x480+0+0 0mm x 0mm
640x480 73.00* administrator@administrator-Aspire-5000:~$
I also checked for drivers and the only thing that came up was:
Unknown: Unknown
This device is using an alternative driver.
O Using Processor microcode firmware for AMD CPUs from ad64-microcode (proprietary)
O Do not use this device.
I tried changing it to the first choice, restarting then going to display - still no choice for resolution change and then I went back and reverted to "Do not use this device" and still exactly the same, no choice for resolution.
Not sure what I should do now. It is liveable, however all the windows I open are too large for the laptop screen so a bit of a pain to move it around to close or view.

Hi Jerry,
If you feel like sharing...I'm curious as to what distro(s) was your preferred daily driver prior to creating Linux Lite.
Thx

I thought I'd let you guys know that I won't be around very much for a while. Not that I'm super active on here, but I normally at least login once a day to read the latest posts. I've been given ownership and control of a model car forum, which is a hobby of mine. To cut through all the small talk and get to the point, I decided to take the forum over to offer model builders another place to visit that is friendly and helpful. A couple of the "big name" forums seem to be cluttered with bickering and name calling, so a lot of guys left those big forums and found small, friendly places to spend their online time. That's a whole lot like this forum. You just don't read anything on here that's derogatory towards any person. That's the kind of environment I'm going to provide for members of my new forum. It's actually a very old forum, but has been nearly inactive for the past couple years.
Anyway, enough about all that. I just wanted to say I won't be real active here for a while until I can get that forum up and running smoothly. If any of you guys happen to be model car builders, or think you might like to get into the hobby, feel free to check my forum out. Just remember that I haven't even started to clean things up and get it running smoothly. Things will change a bit over the next few weeks. Thanks!

Hi all
I'm running Linux Lite 3.6 and i decided to install Clamav as shown in the manual. But when i tried to update clamav i got this:
Code: colin@Linux-Lite4me:~$ sudo freshclam
[sudo] password for colin:
ClamAV update process started at Mon Dec 11 14:26:23 2017
main.cvd is up to date (version: 58, sigs: 4566249, f-level: 60, builder: sigmgr)
daily.cld is up to date (version: 24119, sigs: 1801440, f-level: 63, builder: neo)
bytecode.cld is up to date (version: 319, sigs: 75, f-level: 63, builder: neo)
colin@Linux-Lite4me:~$
When i tried to run clamav i got a very long list similar to the following:
Code: LibClamAV Warning: fmap_readpage: pread fail: asked for 4077 bytes @ offset 19, got 0
LibClamAV Warning: fmap_readpage: pread fail: asked for 4077 bytes @ offset 19, got 0

LibClamAV Warning: fmap_readpage: pread fail: asked for 4094 bytes @ offset 2, got 0
LibClamAV Warning: fmap_readpage: pread fail: asked for 4094 bytes @ offset 2, got 0
Is this normal?

Hi all, I have encountered this error now when my E6330 is booting up. It was so fast I almost missed it. ACPI error. I have found a way to turn it off by editing the grub file. By doing do I disabled my laptop touch pad and mouse functions. So I had to use an external mouse to undo what I did. It's not affecting the way the laptop boots or functions just wondering if there is a way to remove that error notice.
Thanks
