Hello I have a Geforce 6200 DDR2


I put card in slot booted up screen flickers then I get the gray screen with bar at bottom LL loading then I got a two rows of numbers then screen flicked back to loading screen with bar. Then screen had black white squares all over it.

Error two line

Code:
9.067035] nouveau E[ PFIF0][0000:03:01] DMA_PUSHER - CH 0 [ DRM GET 0X0000ED3 PUT 0X00009190 STATE 0X80000000 (ERR: INVALID_CMD) PUSH 0X00000000

Code:
9.067936] nouveau E[ PFIF0][0000:03:01] DMA_PUSHER - CH 0 [ DRM GET 0X0009190 PUT 0X0000A5C8 STATE 0X80000000 (ERR: INVALID_CMD) PUSH 0X00000000

As I can't see screen how would I load a driver for card
I have updated the kernel once but it stopped my Virtual Box from working.


Thanks

In another post a member reporting a problem with using a terminal command to upgrade their software and showed an image of
[Image: Screenshot_2016_06_28_16_55_38.png]

I do not know why or how the member got to that state so let me explain what I tried to do my system in hope I was going to resolve it.

step 1 I used root powers to examine the contents of /etc/locale.gen
step 2 as a local user I ran the command

Code:
gordon@asus:~$ locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=en_US LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ALL= gordon@asus:~$

step 3 I made a full backup of that file and then used root powers to strip all contents until it was only this
en_AU.UTF-8 UTF-8
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8


step 4 I then as root attempted to change my locale  with this result
Code:
gordon@asus:~$ sudo locale-gen Generating locales (this might take a while)...   en_AG.UTF-8... done   en_AU.UTF-8... done   en_BW.UTF-8... done   en_CA.UTF-8... done   en_DK.UTF-8... done   en_GB.UTF-8... done   en_HK.UTF-8... done   en_IE.UTF-8... done   en_IN.UTF-8... done   en_NG.UTF-8... done   en_NZ.UTF-8... done   en_PH.UTF-8... done   en_SG.UTF-8... done   en_US.UTF-8... done   en_ZA.UTF-8... done   en_ZM.UTF-8... done   en_ZW.UTF-8... done Generation complete. gordon@asus:~$ locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=en_US LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ALL=


I admit I am new to LL and may do things a bit different. I am sure some members might find me arrogant but I am stumped on this one.

Any clues

Could I suggest a section for total Newbs to ask questions that are probably second nature to experienced users.
The "how to/tips" section helps, but takes a lot of things for granted on the use of Linux, ie; terminal commands and how to install different software packages or find settings..
LinuxLite seems to be an easy replacement for Windows on older systems (I am moving from XP), so possibly a lot of new linux users.
Members answering questions could keep that in mind and give more detailed directions (and patience).

Just a thought

I have some web work to do, and I am going to give BlueGriffon try now in Linux Lite 2.8 over the next couple of weeks. I think it is worthwhile testing/debug project given that the focus of LL is windows converts. It is an easy to use wysiwyg editor with a Mozilla base and the latest version is from April this year. Has anyone tried it yet in LL 2.8 or 3.0?

Hi;
I installed google earth using the x32 instructions in the following.

(06-02-2015, 05:55 PM)avj link Wrote:  This article may help you it works on LL 2.4 32 bit, but according to your profile you may have issues with graphics and memory for running the program. Older systems with only 256mb memory probably won't have the 3d rendering capability needed.

http://www.noobslab.com/2014/03/install-...linux.html
It did not give any errors, but I can not find it in menu or search to see if it works
How do I fix this?
I am using LL 3.0 x32

TIA

Hello, All!

I am posting this because things have changed a little for the LL Citrine (3.x) series and other Ubuntu 16.04-based distributions.

Ubuntu and its derivatives now include a version of blueman that works properly in the repositories. As a result, the blueman PPA is no longer needed - unless, that is, you LIKE "living on the edge". However, what the Ubuntu 'gods' DIDN'T bother to do is include the necessary .conf files in the /etc/bluetooth folder to enable full Bluetooth support. In addition to the audio.conf file, a number of other Bluetooth .conf files were also excluded.

What follows is a copy of a working audio.conf file that can be pasted into Leafpad and saved to the /etc/bluetooth folder. That, and a reboot, will enable Bluetooth audio support.

First, we open Leafpad (or other text editor of your choice) as root:

Open a terminal window with CTRL-ALT-T, and type or cut/paste the following line:

Code:
sudo leafpad /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf

Once Leafpad opens, copy [CTRL-C] and paste [CTRL-V] the following:

# begin copy/paste

# Configuration file for the audio service

# This section contains options which are not specific to any
# particular interface
[General]
Enable = Source,Sink,Headset,Gateway,Control,Media
Disable = Socket

# Switch to master role for incoming connections (defaults to true)
#Master=true

# If we want to disable support for specific services
# Defaults to supporting all implemented services
#Disable=Gateway,Source,Socket

# SCO routing. Either PCM or HCI (in which case audio is routed to/from ALSA)
# Defaults to HCI
#SCORouting=PCM

# Automatically connect both A2DP and HFP/HSP profiles for incoming
# connections. Some headsets that support both profiles will only connect the
# other one automatically so the default setting of true is usually a good
# idea.
#AutoConnect=false

# Headset interface specific options (i.e. options which affect how the audio
# service interacts with remote headset devices)
[Headset]

# Set to true to support HFP, false means only HSP is supported
# Defaults to true
HFP=false

# Maximum number of connected HSP/HFP devices per adapter. Defaults to 1
MaxConnected=1

# Set to true to enable use of fast connectable mode (faster page scanning)
# for HFP when incoming call starts. Default settings are restored after
# call is answered or rejected. Page scan interval is much shorter and page
# scan type changed to interlaced. Such allows faster connection initiated
# by a headset.
FastConnectable=false

# Just an example of potential config options for the other interfaces

[A2DP]
SBCSources=1
MPEG12Sources=0

# end copy/paste

Save the file with [CTRL-S] and reboot. You should now be able to set up and use your Bluetooth audio device.


If copy-and-paste doesn't work for you, I have created a Dropbox that includes all the Bluetooth-related .conf files I could find in a tarball...

https://www.dropbox.com/s/vqpx4kvv0xm6tt...ar.gz?dl=0

Enjoy!
