I am looking for a new Linux Laptop. Can anybody recommend a good one under $300...and it has to be available at Amazon, because I'm gonna have to get it on my Amazon card. Thanks. ;D
With Ubuntu considering dropping 32bit, is it time for the LL developers to look at switching from the Ubuntu base to "straight" debian? I have just started experimenting with Point Linux (XCFE 32 bit) on my Fuji Si1520 (2006) whose processor will not run 64bit OS but has plenty of life left in it. So far so good, no keyboard issues on set up , wifi found automatically etc.
Question therefore , is switching "bases" an option preserve the availability of LL to older machines beyond the Ubuntu 32 bit switch off?
Just came across this.

I know this YouTuber prefers MATE, but if you can endure his frustrated tone, there are some decent suggestions here.

Hi,
I encounter a deleting/disappearing file/folder problem under WINE and FSViewer.
The problem will be happened If I'm trying to rename a folder (using right click and choosing 'rename' in pulldown menu) and then click [ESC] for canceling the rename action. After that action, certainly I will not able to find the folder/file even though I had searched it outside WINE, such as via terminal (using 'ls' command).
Right now the important for me is to recover the disappear forlder/file. Thanks for any suggestion for recovering.
cheers.
Now I know where this Linux Lite 3.0 wallpaper comes from.
This morning, within LL3.0, I have twice tried unsuccessfully to symlink '/home' (sda2 on physical drive1) to '/mnt/DATA', the latter occupying a single ntfs partition (sdb1) on physical drive2. When I reboot the PC, the folders in /home/mike appear white, with a cross on each one. On examining the contents of sdb1, I find no trace of the folders I created there.
Symlinking is something I've done routinely in the past with the LL2 series without a hitch. Is 'utf8' still supported in LL3.0 or is this now discontinued? Would be grateful for help with this.
Thanks for any help
Mike
This is a first-time post from a new member. Hopefully, I'm doing this right.
I'm trying to decide between Linux Lite and Mint XFCE for my first Linux OS. Linux Lite does not consistently detect my wi-fi network with a Live install of either the 32-bit or 64-bit versions. The problem occurs with Live installs using either a DVD or USB stick drive. About 50% of the time I can connect to the wi-fi network by left clicking on the network icon in the panel and selecting the name of my network from the list that pops up. But, the other 50 percent of the time when I left click I do not get a list of wi-fi networks that have been detected. When I add a new network connection by manually filling in the network and router info, Lite adds it as a new wi-fi network, but it doesn't access it and I haven't been able to make Lite to access it. So, I can't connect to it. This is not a problem with any other distro I've tried -- about a half dozen in all. All of them auto detect my wi-fi network without any trouble and connect when I click on the network name from the list of wi-fi networks that have been detected.
Am I doing something wrong or is there a network connection bug in Lite? I'm really hoping to clear this up so I can give Lite an equal chance against Mint XFCE.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Jack
