Hello,
  I think LL team may use fund-raising model similar to that of Linux Mint(LM). LM basically has sponsorship schemes, viz. platinum, gold, silver, and casual(I guess). Each of these have a certain amount to be donated to LM and certain other conditions that LM satisfies, example, for platinum sponsorship- LM shows name of sponsor on some predetermined areas on website or OS. The sponsors pay a monthly donation, which keeps the project alive.

Thanks.

sorry to say but  i am leaving guys .

Hi, I'm expecting my external hard drive to arrive soon. I'm asking if anyone has advice on what formatting I should do? This is my situation:

1. I plan to use external hard drive to store my user data (by which I mean everything under my home directory). It's mainly documents etc.

2. If I had to use the backup, it would be in the event of my data being destroyed, e.g. hard drive failure, etc etc. It's mostly for catastrophic recovery.

3. I do not care about my system files or the OS as much. If I had to, I would simply re-install LinuxLite from live CD, so if there was an issue with the OS itself I don't care as much as I would for my documents.

4. I have 2 LinuxLite machines available to me for recovery (desktop and laptop). However, I would like the drive to ideally be also readable by Windows 10 (in addition to LinuxLite). If that's not possible, then just readable by LinuxLite would be OK.

How do you recommend I format this drive? Would FAT32 work out OK for this, or is it best to use one of the Linux-specific formats? As you can probably tell by my question I know nothing about this topic, which is why I'm asking. I just want to make sure my backup strategy is a good fit for my needs if I need to recover data from it. Thanks for any help you can give.

I am sure it is due to my lack of knowledge but why when doing a download for a fresh install of LL 3.4 64 bit does the torrent hash not match via check sum but the md 5 does?  At least one of the two match.

Hi all.
I'm just another ordinary, happy LinuxLite user
Greetings to all and big thanks to Jerry&Co for the best Ubuntu-based, Xfce distro.

Does anyone know what steps are being taken so that get-iplayer will still be usable  after the sign in to BBC requirement comes into effect.?

Just installed WINE and mono and other suggested addons at time of WINE install...trying to install my main work program - Total by Alamode - real estate appraisal software.

The Installshield installer needs to connect to Alamode servers to verify my product registration, but says I do not have a valid internet connection - but I do - wired and wireless both active.

I do not see any internet settings in WINE config...

Any suggestions?

Thanks!


 

Just for purposes of looking ahead, a heads-up that development of systemback has been suspended:

Hello Everyone,

It's been a month(roughly) since I started using LL, and the experience has been more than awesome! LL is certainly a lot stable OS.
LL also looks quite good, but I think there may be some improvement in looks.
    1. The default wallpaper may be reconstructed as per some modern trends, which includes-flat, simple and sleek design and etc. (well, you get the point  )
    2. The same may be said in case of symbol.

Any suggestions over the color combination to be used or to include some parts or images already designed or any general suggestion is whole-heartedly welcomed.

Thanks,
Sanmay
