  Video viewing on forum with LL 3.0
Posted by: Coastie - 07-31-2016, 05:39 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (4)

Ever since installing LL 3.0, I cannot see videos on this forum and others. Even when I post it like on http://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/on-top...n#msg25404, I still can't see them. I have disabled NoScript, Ad Blocker+, and Privacy Badger but makes no difference. Don't think I have any other plug in on Firefox 47.0 which would cause this. No problems on You Tube. I never had these problems with 2.8 or before and never had to mess with plug ins other than maybe allowing scripts.

Anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Don't know why he bothered to install Plank when you can do the same thine with an XFCE panel.  :Smile

  Kdenlive segmentation fault when playing video.
Posted by: Drawing4Life - 07-29-2016, 08:22 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (1)

So when I edit a video I need to play it back to see the results. The second I press play it crashes.
I am using Kdenlive version 15.12.3
Using:

  • KDE Frameworks 5.18.0
  • Qt 5.5.1 (built against 5.5.1)
  • The xcb windowing system

The error message I get is:

  file sharing and rdp via smb and remmina in LL3.0 & Windows10
Posted by: trinidad - 07-28-2016, 10:00 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (7)

Some good news. I accidentally discovered (while tinkering with Thunar dependencies today) that Windows10 home has apparently added the missing support for file sharing and remote desktop. I discovered today running troubleshooter while setting up an ad hoc network on the W10 OS. I had it all briefly working (about a half an hour or so) with a LL3.0 box on the other end through my wifi router. I was able to configure it all using the help manual file sharing conventions on the LL end, but the Windows instructions in the help manual don't really apply to the redundancy in Windows10. I used the GUI entirely on both machines, as I like to test these things for user friendliness, and Remmina worked briefly. I'm sure that the little woman and her grandson have some of the grouping permissions messed up on the Windows10 box, and that's why settings were discarded from Windows10 after reboot of both boxes even though I made the changes as administrator. I am pretty optimistic that file sharing and remote desktop will work on Windows10 home, and not just pro, now though. A tutorial will have to be specific about Win10 redundancy issues, and group usages. Once I narrow it all down a bit more I'll come up with something simple. It does work though. Also note that Samba is a bit messed up, and I had to change a few things, and I'm not satisfied with the security conventions yet, but a half hour is a half hour. Yippee Skippee. Dinner time. I quit.

I've now introduced the German Wikipedia article about Linux Lite and added some screen shots to the Englisch Wikipedia article.

  Tomboy vs. Xpad Icon Differentiation
Posted by: richtea - 07-27-2016, 08:12 PM - Forum: On Topic - No Replies

Using both Tomboy and Xpad with launchers on the desktop, the icons are identical. It seems Xpad has no emblem of its own, so it is automatically assigned the Tomboy one.

In practice, this is more annoying than confusing, but there is a quick remedy:

Right-click on the Xpad icon, select Edit Launcher, double-click on Icon to open an alphabetically arranged set of emblems to choose from. I find  the pleasantly gray text-editor-symbolic to fit Xpad rather well, being properly distinguished from the yellow Tomboy launcher in its vicinity.

  LL will not shut down
Posted by: Crazy Larry - 07-27-2016, 05:51 PM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - No Replies

Jerry...I have my machine set up with a dock and I swap out hard drives depending on the OS I want to use.  One with Windows 7 and one with  LL.......The problem is whenever I select Quit in linux..... The machine only shuts off for a second and then reboots......I've tried at least 10 different distros and they are all the same so it isn;t a just a problem with LL......Windows 7 completely turns off the machine but all flavors of linux just does a reboot and doesn't turn off the machine....Any ideas on a fix.....It's just irritating. 
I have a Gigabyte motherboard  GA-MA74GM-S2 with an AMD Athlon 64 x2 Dual Core Processor 6000+  240.00mhz
with 8 GB memory

  Saved "X" Preferences
Posted by: patarok - 07-27-2016, 12:47 PM - Forum: Video Cards - Replies (1)

So, are we at a point now, where the system is able to save settings you made to the graphical setup? Or is it still, that i will have to readjust/reset my dual-monitor set-up after every boot, so i can use the monitors part-part and not mirrored.
The menubar settings also dont get saved... (i always set it to DVI-0 but it gets back to auto which puts it on VGA-0 which is mirrored to DVI-0 after boot)

No, i will not write weird settings texts into some file by myself, nope. That is not why computers have been invented. sry. The system has to save settings the user makes. period.
