Lightdm GTK greeter that takes us to the desktop is nice but lacks some styles. I installed a few new xfce themes and it would be nice to have more options for the greeter that would match the desktop themes. Where can I find those styles and how can I install them? Another question: is it possible to use an alternative? I know there is a kde greeter (too heavy for my system probably), a unity greeter, razor something..

Hi,

I've been using LL for about a week now, and am loving every moment of it.  A big thank you, again.  I haven't felt this confident I can solve problems on my own PC since Windows XP; and I haven't felt this good about "computing" (as opposed to just using a computer) probably since childhood in the early-ish days of "personal computing".

This is a general question on URL links/books to help me and fellow newbies find good information to make informed decisions about security in LL, especially for those like me coming from Windows - going beyond that in the great manual included with LL.

Being a Linux newbie coming from Windows, I'm trying to adjust to the "Linux mindset" with regard to security.  That's proving easier said than done, as "googling" these things gives me the impression that there is a broad spectrum of opinion from "Linux is so robust it could survive thermonuclear war" to "Linux is about as secure as an unlocked door" and everywhere in-between.  So, it looks to me like hard facts are somewhat difficult to find.

I would be grateful if someone who knows about these things could direct me to good, factual resources for the beginner, please.

For example, I've installed clamav on the understanding that it scans for Windows viruses and is useful if exchanging files with Windows users or my Windows computers.  I've installed rkhunter and performed the initial setup --propupd immediately after completing the build and updates; but how often is often enough to run --check ?  Does adding tripwire, for example, add much value, or is it likely to cause me, a beginner, more worry and confusion than actually help?  Is running firejail a good idea for Firefox, Chromium and QuiteRSS?  Is the TOR Browser from the Light Software list set up with the sandbox feature running?  And so on.  At least I know enough to use sudo very sparingly, and be extra careful should anything ask for my password unexpectedly.

I appreciate the exact nature and level of security varies from person to person and with circumstances.  Hence the request for good factual sources so I can make my own mind up.

Any links to good advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Take care,
Ian

I've just tried updating and got the following error. Have tried searching here to see if anyone has already posted about this but could see nothing.  Have just opened LibreOffice Writer and it looks as though it has updated to version 5.4.2.2 but that doesn't explain the error message.

I'm trialling a new, more detailed Download page, as far as some basic statistics go.
I'm using the Sourceforge API directly so the data should be 100% correct after each update.

Hello to everybody, i'm Cesar and i installed Linux Lite 2 months ago, it's very useful for me because i migrated from windows ( from 95 to 7, i hate the news versions) decided start with this OS for start using a simple version that reminds me the xp.

Anyway, i was reading and i saw videos to install an antivirus in Linux, maybe i don't need it, i know, but i prefer be prevent for any case, so i downloaded  the Clam av antivirus, i put the command "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y" everything normal at this point, but when i decide scan a directory , in my case "sudo clamscan -r /home/cesar" i get this message:

this is weird for me, so i downloaded a minor infected file,i updated the freshclam with #freshclam, and i type again  "sudo clamscan -r /home/cesar/downloads"(there is the infected file)
and this message appears:

WHY? i don't know, and when i try again a new scan this  appears:

thanks for your time reading this, and pardon me if i'm a noob, all this it's new for me

Graphical update failed for me today. on

Hi. i recently installed LL on a toshiba satellite laptop ( about 5-6 yrs old) . About 15-20% of the time it is slow after bootup. This is straight afterwards & before i actually start trying to do anything. The cursor movement is jittery (i use a usb mouse) & there is noticeable hesitation on opening any aps. The last time it did this (just now) i opened task manager to see what was running. All the processes showed 0% cpu usage (except task mang.) but the graph &  % caption at the top showed overall cpu usage at around 50%. i can tell by the fan usage that work was being done.  It doesn't go away if i leave it. So far if i restart it sorts itself out & overall cpu% drops to 10-30%. it used to do this when it ran Win 10 but i thought it was all the background aps that caused it then, hard to tell.  I know it the symptoms are rather vague but has anyone any idea were i might start in tracking this down?

I am trying to assign a key combination for swiching between input languages. I put an iBus icon in the notification area and opened the settings:

Originally there was a code named space (Alt+space bar). I deleted it and then I wanted to add Ctrl+Shift combination but nothing happened. The application just gets stuck at the window asking to press and release new combination.What am I missing/doing wrong?

I'm relatively new to Linux and still learning the terminal magic. My question is about the terminal(s) in my system - which one ssould I use if curently I have three installed: Xterm, UXTerm and LXTerminal (Root Terminal doesn't count, I assume. It's still the the LXT, right?). Why does the system install them all? The difference betwen them? And the preferred one?
