  A bit about me
Posted by: STEditor - 02-05-2017, 11:33 AM - Forum: Introductions - Replies (5)

Hello LL Forums,
I'm STEditor, new to the forums. I recently discoverd these forums when I was searching for wallpapers, and I came across.... THIS!
I hope I can get to learn new things, and stick with LL 2.8. I can see that everyone is helpfull and informative here. I found out about the family of Linux operating systems around April 8th, 2014 - As many know this was the time when Windows XP was no longer supported, but even know many expensive buisness use XP, why can't they try Linux? Well nevermind, I'm staying with Linux untill the end of time! I do use a fairly slow laptop so It makes sense not for me to be lugging Windows 10 around, but LL!

Many Thanks,

STEditor  Wink

Posted by: abybmadey - 02-05-2017, 05:17 AM - Forum: Printing and Scanning - No Replies

How To Reset Canon Pixma MP237

Press the STOP/RESET when the condition of the printer is dead. Then press the power button together with button STOP/RESET.
Off the pressure button STOP/RESET and hold pressure on the power button.
On the position of the power button still depressed, you should also compensate by pressing the STOP/RESET until 6 times then release simultaneously with the power button.
If you are right in conducting the stage above to reset Canon Pixma MP237, your computer detects a new device if the service mode process successfully. Conversely, if the process fails then the detection will not appear.

Step 2: Reset Printer Canon Pixma MP237
Get Tools resetter Canon Pixma MP237 here, in advance.
Start doing with ordered software resetter Canon MP237

  Vivaldi For Low Powered Machines
Posted by: Delta555 - 02-04-2017, 09:24 PM - Forum: Suggestions and Feedback - Replies (2)

Just did a semi-exhaustive web browser testing on my net book and came to the conclusion that Vivaldi is the fastest, lightest browser I could get to work with basic web browsing and watching some YouTube.

Tried out Firefox, QupZilla, Chromium, Midori, Chrome, Tor for the hell of it and finally Vivaldi.

It isn't as full featured obviously but gives you the ability to really de-clutter you browser for those with little ram.

They also offer a E-mail Acct as well.



Just thought someone new to Linux who is running on a slow machine could benefit from trying Vivaldi right off the bat instead of drudging around for a few days before finding a solution.

  Where can the command-line for LL's Lite Tweak's tasks be found?
Posted by: m654321 - 02-03-2017, 02:55 PM - Forum: Other - No Replies

The Lite Tweaks GUI, and the list of tasks listed within it, is a really neat feature of LL.  It's especially useful for everlasting newbies
such as myself (who don't know much command-line) in ensuring the day-to-day smooth running of an LL install.

Is the Lite Tweaks GUI unique to LL? - I can't say I've noticed it in the linux distros I've flirted with to date.

However, I'd now like to learn a bit about the command-line behind at least some of the key tasks listed in Lite Tweaks.
Could someone point me in the direction where I would find the command-line for the following tasks:

- old kernel removal
- free up RAM memory
- firefox cache clean
- package cache clean
- residual configuration files clean
- thumbnail cache clean
- whisker menu clean

Many thanks
Mike
