  Autonauts - free, modern, actively developed game for Linux!
Posted by: Vera - 11-07-2017, 05:21 PM - Forum: Off Topic - Replies (10)

Hey guys and gals, I like it when gaming devs support the Linux platform natively. Just wanted to let you know about Autonauts if you haven't heard about it yet - it's a world-building game - If you like Factorio / Kerbal Space Program / Minecraft you'll probably love it. I wanted to share the info since I know that some of you like Linux games. You can find it over at https://denki.itch.io/autonauts. I haven't had a chance to get to play it myself yet, but it looks pretty awesome and well-thought-out.

They state they are committed to developing for Linux but that they lack testers:

Quote:Also, the Linux version is still untested by us (because we don't have Linux) but feedback so far suggests that it's working well enough, so we'll keep supplying a Linux version with every update Smile

- from the Autonauts website referenced above).

FYI - They're also in the middle of Kickstarter campaign, interestingly, which offers some pretty neat perks like some extra votes in dev polls, etc etc. (If you're interested in checking that out, it's at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/149.../autonauts.)

Anyhow, it's nice to see people actually actively developing modern games for Linux in the here-and-now, as opposed to just porting old games over (although there's nothing wrong with that either!)

  Acer Chromebook CB3-111 on LL 3.4 - No sound
Posted by: JanetBiggar - 11-07-2017, 06:14 AM - Forum: Sound - Replies (7)

I'm hoping someone can help me.  I have just loaded LL 3.4 on this chromebook as the OS and all seems fine, other than there is no sound from the speakers.  Sorry I didn't try the sound before converting the chromebook, however the person who donated it did not indicate the sound wasn't working so am assuming there were no issues with sound.

When I plug in an audio jack I do get sound through ear phones.  I have tried moving the volume switch both at the bottom right corner as well as in the video itself and no go, no sound.

What can I do to solve this?  BTW I am a very recent LL convert and only minimally computer literate Wink

Thanks,
Janet

  Just another ordinary iNTROUDUCTION
Posted by: MohamedKhaled - 11-06-2017, 10:10 PM - Forum: Introductions - No Replies

They say better late than never ...
well, at least I have an excuse that my first days with linuxlite (and Linux) was some sort of hard.....
and now after only 2 weeks I am even helping people solve basic problems ... even that I liked this forum so much that I decided never to leave it...even if I left all Linux(very impossible)
anyway, lets make it ordinary again ...

I am MohammedKhaled .. a man from Egypt ... studies all his primary years in an international school in KSA .. which made him a little bit exceptional (or maybe that's his ego) loves English even more than how he loves people.... even that he talks with himself in English .... a fast learner that loves tech ... especially android and mobiles ..(that's why I am familiar with many concepts in Linux) .. o
                            ok at last ..even that it's just my first month .. am so willing to help and I can help you with anything in Linux(not code related) ... I am active almost all on the day .. and thanks

  ls: unrecognized/unknown option «--color [»
Posted by: Moltke - 11-06-2017, 09:02 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (8)

Hi everyone! Hope you're all having a nice life! Smile
I wanted to list files/folders in a directory with

Code:
ls
and got this 
Code:
ls: unrecognized option «--color [»
Why am I seeing this? What does it mean? I've googled for this  without any luck Sad
Any help/advice is really appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your answers.
By the way, since my system is in Spanish I translated the error message so I don't know if that's what you'll see in English. Wink

  Lite Help does not start correct
Posted by: JohnD - 11-06-2017, 07:27 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (3)

Hello.

When ever a program starts a documentation, which, I suppose, is coded in HTML, no longer a web browser starts but the html editor Bluefish. So I'm also not able to load the Help for Linux Lite.

I think it's something with this alternatives system, but I do not know how to fix it.

  Linux lite 3.4 or ?
Posted by: JanetBiggar - 11-06-2017, 04:54 PM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (3)

I’m wiping an 3-5 yr old Dell that was running Win 10 (donated to me with this OS). I have it as the youth who was using it ran into a problem, likely a virus, so he now has one of the other donated computers running Linux Lite 3.4

My question is do I put LL 3.4 on this one or move up to 3.6? Or even another flavour? This computer has RAM 3G and HD 500 GB. ALL the other donated laptops I’m setting up with youth are running LL 3.4 so am wondering if there’s any good reason to do anything different..?

Thanks in advance,

Janet (in South Africa doing volunteer work with youth)

  HTML5 Fullcreen Youtube 720p60 1080p60 Firefox
Posted by: valtam - 11-06-2017, 09:00 AM - Forum: Tutorials - No Replies

I was putting up with choppy videos for a while on fullcreen Youtube 720p60 1080p60 videos in Firefox.
I have 2 x 4k, 28" Screens.

This also worked for 2160p 4k Youtube content Smile

Today I found the solution:

1. Put about:config into Firefox's address bar and hit enter.
2. Search for layers.acceleration.force-enabled
3. When this value comes up, double click the word false under the value column to change it to true
4. Restart Firefox.

FYI, in Chrome I experienced no such issues.

Hurrah, no more chop!
