Hi all.
I wonder if I could change the behavior of the dual-display : i want it activated only when my user session is started / unlocked and that it can't apply when I logout / session is locked / before login . What would be for you guys the smartest way to do that ?
I tried to find out in my process monitor the process that manages the dual-display but could not find it...  :'(

Hi
I’m having a problem upgrading from version 3.4 to 3.6, 64 bit only. The 32 bit upgrade worked great. Please know I am not using a proxy and updates is working. Except for using a proxy my issue is the same as WytWun. However his thread was marked as “Solved” But the resolution did not work for me. In that thread my understanding is the resolution is to comment out line 495 of the /user/bin/lite-upgrade-series3 file. I opened the file but the file on my PC has only 470 lines.  When I ran the command “wget -nv -t2 -T1 --ignore-length --max-redirect=1  --spider http://repo.linuxliteos.com/linuxlite/db/version” I get the error”
“wget: unable to resolve host address ‘repo.linuxliteos.com’.  The other wegt and curl commands suggested by ralphy run without errors.

Heya!


Not really a software "issue" so posting here.


I've been looking for a visual (i.e. not glmark) benchmark
that would run in opengl 1.x on Linux and Windows.


I tried unigine sanctuary and tropics but looking
for something that would be on a 'real' (albeight old) game engine.


For not so old pcs I can run Furmark and StreetFighter IV benchmark in Wine,
bFur is almost same speed as Windows in wine but SFIV varies from 60.- 90%
of Windows performances so not too reliable.


The Doom3 demo works on linux but no FPS and the equivalent Doom3 demo is too old to work in Windows 7.


Any suggestions?

Will i be able to play Blue-ray dvd's using VLC media player in Linux Lite-3.6?

I prefer using Gedit for all my HTML and CSS. So, i uninstalled Leafpad and removed it from the main menu. Problem is that after installing Gedit i can't see any link for it in the main menu. Can anyone help this old fool please.

Have just installed Linux Lite 3.6 and it seems to this oldman that the OS just seems to be getting better and better all the time. Outstanding work by everyone yet again. Big thanks!

I've not updated for a week but when I tried to do so today I got the following message:

Install Updates Error log
===========================
Install Updates could not successfully download and install available updates.
Go to https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/ and paste the log below into a new or existing thread for assistance.

============ Log ===========

E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?

I tried logging out and then backin again but got the same message.

Suggestions on how to tackle it would be much appreciated, thank you

hey guys im currently looking for an server but i am in an confusing bind. im looking to at Lenvno, thinkpenguin plus system76. almost for forgot Zareason. the lenvno is cheaper and is on Amazon. but i need to know the hardware sturdiness. the zareasons i got are ok but the hardware kinda bad.

Upgrade to LL3.6 from LL3.4 on eeePC 901 went ok, but I now find that Remmina 1.1.2 SFTP crashes into oblivion after entering the remote PCs SSH password. Remote desktop and SSH login both work ok.

The Remmina debug window indicates a segmentation fault after the password is entered.
I have purged Remmina and re-installed a few times with no success. Anyone else seeing this problem?

Update:
According to github, Remmina 1.1 is no longer supported so I removed it and installed 1.2 from the apps repository. But it has the same problem, segmentation fault when SFTP plugin is used.

I'm going to pose this question primarily to the developers, but any of you guys with loads of Linux knowledge chip in too. Over the years that I have run some flavor of Linux, there has always been a mild disagreement over whether or not to do a version upgrade. The three trains of thought are, 1) Never do an upgrade if your computer is running just fine, 2) Doing upgrades is the smartest thing you can do because of improvements to the distro, and 3) Only do an upgrade if it is a major release version as in from 3.4 to 4.0.

So what do you developers think the is the right thing to do? My laptop is running so smoothly I'd sure hate to do anything to jinx that. Any and all opinions welcome here.
