Hi


I have bought a personal laptop so i will like to delete LL from a shared desktop that had both LL and Windows 10 installed. How is the best way to go about deleting LL without touching Windows 10?

I have an old Novatech laptop that I intend installing LL 3.6 onto. The trouble is i can boot from the install medium ok, all appears to load ok, but I never get to a desktop. I have tried various operating systems to no avail. I have reset the Bios but don't know what else to try. Any ideas please?

I am having a problem with a fresh install:
On a Dell Inspiron Mini 1012, the boot process hangs during some systemd stuff
On SECOND run : I.e it works fine on first run after install but hangs  after re-booting. This is my first try with the series 3 on this machine which was running 2.8 perfectly.

System hangs during boot after printing three or all of these lines;

[  OK  ] Created slice system-systemd\x2drfkill.slice.
        Starting Load/Save RF Kill Switch Status of rfkill0...
        Starting Load/Save RF Kill Switch Status of rfkill1...
        Starting Load/Save Screen Backlight Brightness of leds:dell::kbd_backlight...
I THINK

This bug is caused by the file /var/lib/systemd/backlight/platform-dell-laptop:leds:dell::kbd_backlight created by (I guess) [email protected]

As that file is re-created at shutdown, I have to mask the service systemd-backlight@leds\:dell\:\:kbd_backlight.service with:

sudo systemctl mask systemd-backlight@leds\:dell\:\:kbd_backlight.service

so kernel-4.4.0-93 doesn't hang at boot.



BUT I can’t get into the system to do this.
I tried going in in recovery mode, but it demands a root password for maintenance.

Can anyone help?

Hello,

This is what my GParted looks now:



-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?

Hi guys, I hope you are all doing well!!


I have a question about how to adjust the brightness on my laptop screen through fn keys? I did a little research around the Internet but I didn't managed to make it work.


So any user managed to make it work?




Best regards,

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)

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?

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

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.
