In looking through the “wallpapers” posting area I have seen some very nice ones that I would like to have/use. Have the contributors to this section posted them for access somewhere? If so and downloading is permitted how do I go about doing so?

Thanks,
Janet

I have my laptop connected via hdmi to my samsung wide screen TV. If I turn my TV off it defaults back to my laptop screen. Is there a setting somewhere that I can have it do nothing if I turn it off?

Hello. Just fairly new to this great OS but I've been distro swapping for a few years now. The main reason I've kept windows is basically to use itunes to access/use my ipad and iphone. Once LL can solve this problem I'll certainly be ditching windows. If anybody knows any way to access and use my iphone 6 and 7 plus my 2nd gen ipad and can share any knowledge in regards to this would be great. Oh, and I have tried using gtkpod but no luck. Wouldn't even load an old ipod I have  Sad

I am following one of the easylinuxtips suggestions, in particular from an article called "Libre Office: Configure it right" specifically:

6. Install some useful fonts, in order to improve the compatibility with documents from Microsoft Office:
Launch a terminal window (this is how to launch a terminal window).
Use copy/paste to transfer this line into the terminal (it's one line!):

sudo apt-get install fonts-crosextra-carlito fonts-crosextra-caladea

Press Enter. Type your password when prompted; this will remain entirely invisible, not even asterisks will show, which is normal.
___________

I have done this successfully before with other computers, but after I type my password with this particular computer I get the following:

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.

I'm unsure what exactly I am suppose to do (type the above in..?).  I wanted to get some clarification before I perhaps screwed something up.

Any suggestions?

Merry Christmas to the Linux Lite team and forum members. Seasons greetings to those who do not celebrate Christmas.
Love the seasonal theme. Personally I prefer lighter themes, easier to read than dark themes. Everything is very clear.
The usual dark theme causes problems on small screens eg. where the righthand menu links to Shop, Team and Logout wrap to another line and the text has hardly any contrast with the background.
I know other forum themes are available but the Christmas one is the clearest yet. How about selectable themes for the four seasons.

Hi, all,

Since Sunday before last, I've had three apparent complete system freezes.  The first was during a DVD write, and I am confident it was a system freeze rather than a simple graphics freeze (with the system still running), and the DVD write did not complete despite leaving it 20 minutes (it normally completes in 5 or so).

Being new to Linux, I was wondering if anyone has any advice on how to go about diagnosing such freezes - for example, which log files to check, what terminal commands to try, etc.?

Thanks,
Ian
