I'm trying to outfit a friend's laptop running LL 3.6, with bluetooth audio. It will require a dongle, as BT is not built in.


I don't see any BT audio in the LL database. At Amazon, only 2 BT audio dongles show up, and the reviews are not encouraging.


Do most BT dongles work with Linux, even if it's not advertised as such?


Thanks.

I have an old Asus laptop x53e with Windows 7 got so slow it was useless.  Finally I googled how to open up the bios.  I knew how but as soon as I press the on button I had to immediately hit the delete button....Happy news, I was able to install  LL 3.6 and WOW!....new life for the old laptop.  It hums along at a pretty good clip now!!!!!!

Hi everyone! Hope you're all having a nice life! A piece of advice please. I'm dual booting Windows 7 and Linux Lite 3.6. LL's partition has only 30gb, but the more I use LL the more I like it and now I want to increase it's size by taking it from Windows'. I've been googling for this and so far every piece of info I've found  says I have to boot from a live cd/usb and do it from there. I also searched the forum but nothing was even closer to what I want to do. I think I have to boot  into Windows and resize it to free some more space for LL, what's not clear to me is whether it'll be possible to assign this unallocated space to LL. Is that possible? Also, after resizing Windows' partition, can I resize LL's partition from within it? Or do I have to boot from a Live usb and do it from there? Thanks in advance for taking the time to answer!

Greetings-
In short, I hated WIN10 so I looked for alternatives. Landed on Linux Lite for 2 laptops and have been generally satisfied. I am reasonably intelligent and am moderately tech savvy. I am NOT an IT professional or code writer. I have been frustrated with some processes in LL that require code written into the DOS prompt equivalent. I even copied and pasted some of the code from this forum and in each and every instance it did not work. I don't know enough to know what I am doing wrong. As much as windows sucks I could almost always accomplish simple tasks like adding a browser or other software. Sorry to complain but I'm 3 days in and have had to re install the OS several times.

Other than that I like it! :-) I'm sure as I use it more I'll begin to "get it". This forum will doubtless be a valuable resource.
Thanks,

Hello,

Free Github accounts, should I create a Github personal or Open Source account ?

Edit -
For now I will leave Github alone.

Hi everyone! Hope you're all having a nice life! Need some help here. I'm having some overheating issues with my machine and I installed gkrellm so I can keep track of temps behaviour, but it suddenly turned off. If I run in a terminal "$gkrellm" I get this message: "Finished because the multiple instances option is off/disabled" (my language is Spanish so I'm not sure whether that's the right English transaltion) and it doesn't start but only after running sudo gkrellm and as long as I don't close that window it keeps on, but as soon as I close it turns off. I think I saw something like that but I just can't remember. If anyone knows what this is about please let me know so I can fix it. Thanks in advance for taking the time to answer!
edit: Well it kind of solved by itself; I rebooted the pc and gkrellm was there running from the very beginning, so I don't know what happened and why but it seems to be solved now

I'm a bit confused here. Trying to organize my personal folders and in general figure out which directory has what content. Among my documents, music, downloads and pictures I see Desktop. Why is it there and is it safe to delete (hide) it? The same about Public. I don't think I'm going to need it.
