| Windows 7 can read / write on ext4 partitions without additional software...! |

I made a surprise observation today...
I found out that I could both read & write data files on an MSDOS-ext4 formatted data partition on my PC, using a Win7 VM, mounted as guest in an LL3.2 host. "Surprised", because I didn't think ext4 was normally accessible from Windows OS, unless special software was employed.
Is the above only seen when Windows OS is installed as a VM?
It means I'll have to adjust the shared folder settings in Oracle VM VirtualBox Manager to 'read only', to avoid any potential security issues, e.g. the possibility that Microsoft updates might over-write parts of the PC's data files or OS files.
Recently, I had to abandon a Win7 / LL3.2 legacy dual-boot, because following a recent patching of Win7 with Microsoft security updates, the PC failed to boot. It even failed to detect the SSD drives on setup1 - they weren't even listed in the boot device list.
As a consequence of this, I've now returned to a Linux-only setup (setup1 in sig): LL3.2 as the main workhorse OS, dual-booted with Linux Mint 18 (XFCE) as a back-up, in case anything happened to LL.
And of course Win7 (& any Windows OS in general) is now relegated to VM status, following the unfortunate experience that I've just described above...
Cheers
Mike

| Steam not working |

Hi guys,
I have a problem with Steam. I noticed a similar thread saying "Steam wont run" but it is already marked as solved and sadly didn't help in my case. I tried installing via Lite Software, download from valve and also by terminal. Only "terminal-version" did something and patched itself, but did not start. The other two did nothing at all. Uninstalled and deleted everything (also hidden files), made a clean install with Lite, tried to execute via terminal and got this message:
Code: arkarion23@Athanasia:~$ steam
Running Steam on ubuntu 16.04 64-bit
STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically
Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(0)
libGL error: unable to load driver: r600_dri.so
libGL error: driver pointer missing
libGL error: failed to load driver: r600
libGL error: unable to load driver: swrast_dri.so
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
Do you have an idea how to fix this? I am still new to linux so I am not the best at guessing what to install and what not 
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,

| LibreOffice Renaming Menu Icons |

Hi guys,
is there a simple way to rename the LibreOffice icons to default in the menu? I'm used to LibreOffice so I would prefer "Writer" "Calc" etc. over "New Document" ...
I tried to change this via the Main Menu application, changing name via properties, but this did not work.
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
ark23
