Excellent news. We no longer have to host their debs.

After Updates you should have:

Code:
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/teamviewer.list

which will get you instant updates.

Forum: Installing Linux Lite
- Replies (5)

I can't seem to find previous posts that might answer my questions. I just had a Toshiba running Windows 10 donated to me for the youth I work with(i5; 4 GB RAM; HDD 581 GB) which I have restored to factory settings, updated Windows 10 and have played around with it minimally before trying LL 3.4. 

At this point I would ideally like to install LL 3.4 (then maybe upgrade it to 3.6 later), however when I tried running if from the bootable USB all seems to be fine other than when I try to pull up Firefox I get this message:

Problem loading page:

Server not found
Firefox canot find the server at the www.google.com

Is that something to do with the Windows 10 (I did make Google the home page on Windows 10...)?

My main objective was to make sure LL 3.4 ran fine before doing an install of LL over Win 10 (I do not wish to dual boot). 

Also I'm not sure if I need to do anything re: UEFI vs Legacy AND if so how I check and make the appropriate switch if needed before I install LL 3.4

In the past I have simply been use to clicking on the install LL 3.4 and all was fine...I'm hoping maybe I can do the same (although wanted to make sure Firefox WILL work), but didn't want to get myself into a bind without knowing if I need to do anything before doing the install LL.

Any suggestions as to what I need to do?
Thanks in advance,
Janet

Hi, all,

I've installed chkrootkit on one of my units; but some time after the initial build rather than straightaway as I would have liked to have done (in order to establish a baseline for a fresh build).

I've got one line which I don't understand, and which I've drawn a blank when Googling and am hoping someone might be able to give me some pointers:

Checking `z2'...                                            user ian deleted or never logged from lastlog!

Does anyone know to what "z2" is referring?
I'm unfamiliar with the lastlog command also, being new to the terminal, etc.

I don't think it's necessarily related, but I also get a strange entry under

Checking `chkutmp'...                                        The tty of the following user process(es) were not found
in /var/run/utmp !

Which looks like some form of bug(?) in chkrootkit, when connected to the Internet (and in this case running firefox  which returns 57.0.1 64-bit in firejail):

before more expected entries which generally seem to refer to running chkrootkit as sudo:

Hi all. I'm transferring files from my Dell E6330 Laptop to my USB drive. In windows I get anywhere from 120-130mbs constant. Now this is transferring to a 7,200 RPM drive. I do have an SSD which sometimes is a bit faster transferring files. Now the problem is, on my laptop the transfer rate goes below 30mbs for the same files I transfer to my Windows PC. The laptop has USB 3.0 ports and I'm using a Corsair 360GB SSD so my transfer rate should at least be near 100mbs. Is there anything with Linux Lite I can do to speed up the transfer?


Thanks

Hi all. I have a Dell E6330 and using LL 64bit. Runs super fast. Sometimes when I shut down, the laptop shuts off but then reboots back into LL. I have to shut down a 2nd time.  I find this odd.

Hi,

Been using unix, then happy to get linux, ubuntu, etc. but always have an issue to get it to automatically free up ram. Running only 3gb on an old Pc. Ran ZRAM but still having issues. Also just installed zswap to see if it helps.

Trying to write my own browser for AXJ members if anyone wants to help. Want it to be simple, quick, and safe.

There doesn't seem to be an XFCE ISO release coming for the new version of Mint, so I started looking around for an alternative and found Lite. I'm surprised at how polished it is for such a small project, and I've had very little trouble getting it set up.

I've used Linux exclusively for about 12 or 13 years, but I'd much rather use something like this "beginners" distro that doesn't take a lot of time to set up so I can start working.
