Hi, I installed Linux Lite 3.0 x64 and I wanted to change the language of this guide https://www.linuxliteos.com/manual/install.html#setlang
Unfortunately, after do all the steps and log out, still is English. Please, help me.
[size=1em]Have just set up LL3.0 on my sister's Toshiba Satellite Pro A300 - I've got a problem with the screen brightness control - the Fn key combinations for changing screen brightness (in a continuous fashion) are not working, i.e. Fn+F6, decrease; Fn+F7, increase brightness.[/size]
[size=1em]In an attempt to fix this I did the following, in the terminal, using gksudo leafpad /etc/default/grub: [/size]
[size=1em]changed GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"[/size]
[size=1em]to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_osi="
[/size]
[size=1em]This didn't work so the next thing I tried was...
[/size]
[size=1em]changed GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" [/size]
[size=1em]to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_backlight=vendor[/size]"
[size=1em]This didn't work either.
I'd be grateful for any help on this, as full-screen brightness can be really tiring in the evening, as you know only too well, and the f.lux app (f.lux alters the quality & intensity of the PC screen's backlighting as a function of the time of day), which I use routinely on my setups, doesn't seem to function - I assume this is related to the screen brightness problem.[/size]
[size=1em]Thanks in advance for any help on this one...[/size][size=1em]

Found out this in latest 3.0 (this issue didn't exist in 2. 8)
I have a NUC with a HDMI screen connected.
Everytime I turn it off or I switch input, or the HDMI cable gets unplugged, it seems that X disables itself (HDMI: No input signal), even when reconnecting or turning on monitor, or switching back.
Only way to recover is to CTRL+ALT+F1, log in, and then "startx".
Further teething problems with yesterday's LL3.0 install on the Toshiba Satellite Pro A300 laptop.
Just noticed the volume control button, that's normally visible on the RHS of the panel (at the bottom of the screen) has disappeared - how do I reinstate this, either GUI or Terminal.
Many thanks
Mike
Hello everyone I have Linux lite 2.8 installed everything was running good until I booted my machine up today and received this error message:
/boot/grub/i386-pc/boot.mod not foundI'm not sure what's going but I would like to fix this issue thanks so much

I apologize ahead of time if I missed the answer, but how might I change the boot order so that Windows is the default?
TIA, Alan
I have 64-bit 3.0 linux lite installed on a desktop and 2 dual boot laptops. In the linux partition, I have /, /home, and /swap in each of them. I understand lite can be upgraded to a newer version within a series and I am aware of being able to do it easily from the utilities within the desktop. However, it appears one has to have an internet connection available. I am somewhat limited in my available bandwidth and this is what I'd like to know. Can one download the latest linux lite version iso, burn it to a cd, then use that cd to upgrade from, rather than the internet? I've searched the forums but so far but haven't seen this answered clearly.
In response to gold_finger and some other members, on the merits of Slimjet & QupZilla web browsers compared to Firefox, I had a go with both of these & compared them to Firefox for myself. I've been really impressed by their speed/snappiness in getting web pages up, compared to Firefox's lagginess when adblockers and/or other extensions are used. I did try a third browser called 'Web' (formerly called Epiphany) but it was a bit too basic in its layout, though appears extremely light-touch too.
[size=1em]It seems to me that SJ has the edge over Qupzilla on general polish. However, as gold_finger pointed out, SJ is closed source whereas QupZilla is open source software. Does this mean that we might know the risks of QupZilla (as code is freely available), but not of Slimjet (I assume it's a closely guarded secret??). I'm wondering which is safer, e.g. privacy, malware, etc. Does anyone have any personal views or experience on this... ??? [/size]

I don't have adobe flashplayer on my PC so of course I'm unable to play certain online video clips in either Firefox or Qupzilla web browsers.
Interestingly, though where Firefox & Qupzilla fail, Slimjet appears capable - therefore it makes me ask does anyone know what media player Slimjet is using - is it generally known - might not be an easy question to answer as SJ is closed source software...?
