Getting rid of 2.8

Posted by: bonnevie - 09-09-2017, 12:30 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (11)

Hello,

This is what my GParted looks now:

[Image: LYOxa8z.png]

-sda1 is LL2.8, sda6 is LL3.0 (upgraded to 3.6)
-I don't use 2.8(sda1) anymore and want to get rid of it to regain memory space and only keep sda6. I think (sda1) is a logical partition.
-I am not confortable with GParted, having already erased Win7 by mistake. I didn't know, and still don't know, how to deal with logical partitions and extended partitions. I only know that erasing a logical partition will mess with my extended partition.
My question is: can I get rid of LL2.8 in this setup without messing up with LL3.0?
If so, how do I do that?

Link handling

Posted by: palko-drawing - 09-08-2017, 02:12 PM - Forum: Other - No Replies

Can somebody help me ? I'm really new on XFCE.
My question is really simple: How can I redirect links.

For example:
I working on my new icon-theme.
I will make an icon with name "user-folder", but I will use my "folder" icon.
I can make a link, with "send to-create link..." , But the result is, (in THIS case) total wrong.
I get a link: ->/usr/share/icons/whatever/...folder , instead of: ->folder (or worst case: ->./folder)
Of course I can redirect the link, but HOW ? 8)

Wired instead of Wifi icon shows when I'm on the Wifi network

Posted by: m654321 - 09-08-2017, 08:19 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (5)

	Yesterday, the icon for the wifi connection, on the bottom right-hand-side of the panel, started to show up as a 'wired' connection icon when I'm using wifi (I'm not using the cable connection to the router) as shown here https://imgur.com/a/UqNhp How do I fix this?

Lite Blue Feather Desktop

Posted by: trinidad - 09-07-2017, 09:38 PM - Forum: Screenshots - Replies (8)

	Messed around with a pale blue feather theme today. Came up with what there is below. Has grub, plymouth, lightdm, desktop, conky, and xfce4term backgrounds. Shows what can be done fairly easily and quickly with LL. Theme is thin ice, and icons are high contrast. Pretty flat simple theme. TC https://imgur.com/a/fzDmw

SOLVED Password Change via Lite User Manager Not Recognised

Posted by: Peejay - 09-07-2017, 08:33 PM - Forum: Suggestions and Feedback - Replies (6)

Something strange: I changed my password in Lite User Manager to one incorporating $ * and = characters. When I tried to login again it was not recognised, but there had been a change of password. I checked Num Lock and I even typed the password in as a user name so that I could see it and then copied and pasted it into the password box of my user name, but it wasn't recognised.
I then followed the Help tip in Lite User Manager and entered the password in with the passwd command and it worked fine. So I'm figuring that there must be something unusual going on with Lite User Manager. Alpha passwords seem OK, though I did only use very short passwords for that.
I'm still on 3.4 at present and this is a single boot installation.
Not a pressing matter but I thought it worth raising. Smile

No Sound in Pychess?

Posted by: pny - 09-07-2017, 03:41 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (2)

	I installed pychess from synaptic, it works great, except the fact that it doesn't has any sounds, the sound on my system works fine otherwise in all the apps, vlc, youtube etc. but not in pychess, any solution for this? Also, before anyone asks, my system is up to date.

Lite3.6 Help Manual Error

Posted by: openmind - 09-06-2017, 11:32 PM - Forum: Suggestions and Feedback - Replies (1)

I'm not sure this is the best place to report documentation errors but I'm giving it a try.

I found an error in the latest Linux Lite3.6 64bit ISO help manual that needs to be fixed. Under Install the manual states:

The computer will go through the boot up process, this may take anywhere from a few seconds to a couple of minutes depending on your hardware. The login for the Live user is automatic, there is no need to login. If for some reason you need to login, simply type in linux beneath Other and click on Log In (no password required).

I found running Linux Lite3.6 live from a multibootusb stick created using multibootusb R8.8 under LL3.4 with 259MB persistance (32MB inadequate) that the user-id 'linux' does not work when prompted to log in (Live automatic login didn't work). The user-id required to login under Linux Lite3.6 is 'ubuntu' with a blank password field. Someone should fix this for those who don't want to clobber their entire USB stick to install Lite3.6.
