I did research and so far I can't find anything, I looked inside the Mouse and Touchpad but there's nothing useful, I'm using  a intuos Pro and the issue I have for now is I run my PC with two monitors and it's using both of them, and I want to be able to change the shortcuts for the buttons on the tablet. If any questions let me know, thank you.

EDIT I used xsetwacom, it works well I just need to find a way to save it so that I don't have to always paste the command in the terminal.

Thanks, Jerry.

I got it installed. I guess you just can't put any encryption into it on an old system. I had encrypted the home folder and that bozoed the install. Now my problem is that Firefox crashes on EVERY opening. It did that on Lubuntu 17.04, and Linux LXLE too. I installed other browsers after installing Linux Lite as well, but they don't function well either. Epiphany will work but then it freezes, and Chrome won't open at all.

Well, I looked around and my processor is not supported by the latest Firefox. I went into Synaptic and uninstalled the Firefox updater and installed the earlier version. It still crashes. All the browsers installed fail to work. (Sigh)

I found this on one thread:

I would like to use this system to go on the web. I am writing this on my laptop with Linux Mint 18.2.  It is always good to have more than one computer just in case you need help fixing one of them.

Also can I create more than one user on the old box? I clicked on adduser, but that won't open either.

I am trying to get 3.6 installed on an older Athlon vintage around 2004--32 bit. It's a homebuilt. The primary IDE channel seems to be broken, so the installation drive is hooked up to a promise card. The computer then recognizes it has a hard drive to install the OS.

In any case the install goes along fine until it hit creating user and then it stops repeatedly. If I bail out at that point, it won't boot up.  I am guessing that after "creating user" it puts on the boot loader.

So, does anyone know how I get out of this stall? I also tried installing Linux LXLE and the same thing happens with that. I like Linux Lite the best though.

RSVP if you have any ideas. My web connection is fine. It is a wired connection, and the indicator on the screen says it is running OK.

been a few years and now gaming needs are higher. i have a HD4850 radeon but is there a source of drivers i can use?. i have seen references to "open source" drivers but i fail to see where or how. thanks, confused

In support of Jerry's firm position regarding UEFI I'd like to share the presentation of Ronald Min


Replace Your Exploit-Ridden Firmware with Linux

Replace Your Exploit-Ridden Firmware with Linux - Ronald Minnich, Google With the WikiLeaks release of the vault7 material, the security of the UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) firmware used in most PCs and laptops is once again a concern. UEFI is a proprietary and closed-source operating system, with a codebase almost as large as the Linux kernel, that runs when the system is powered on and continues to run after it boots the OS (hence its designation as a “Ring -2 hypervisor"). It is a great place to hide exploits since it never stops running, and these exploits are undetectable by kernels and programs.


Our answer to this is NERF (Non-Extensible Reduced Firmware), an open source software system developed at Google to replace almost all of UEFI firmware with a tiny Linux kernel and initramfs. The initramfs file system contains an init and command line utilities from the u-root project (http://u-root.tk/), which are written in the Go language.


About Ronald G. Minnich Ron Minnich is a Software Engineer at Google. He has contributed to many open source projects in the last several decades, including the Linux kernel (9p file system); the FreeBSD kernel (rfork); and Plan 9 (many different areas). He directed the team that ported Plan 9 to the Blue Gene supercomputers. He invented LinuxBIOS (now called coreboot) in 1999. He is one of the core contributors to the Harvey operating system. His most recent Linux Foundation talk was on how to build your own signed version of ChromeOS and resign your Chromebook with your personal keys in 2016.

Hi Linux Lite community,

I hope you are doing all well. I'm thinking to buy an external dvd player and actually this model GP57ES40 or GP50NB40 my question is that if i plug it normally through usb will the dvd player work fine with LL ? Or it will not support it.


Thank you very much in advance!

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.

Removing them from Thunar is simple.  I can also delete the cache (s) found in my home directory - but that doesn't stick.

How can I delete / prevent them permanently from the desktop?    thanks,  -E
