I would like to try out LL 3.0 Beta but I do not know if my computer is fine with that. I am attaching a screenshot of the My Computer in the Lite Control Center for help.

Show which services are taking the longest to start up.

I would like to add some of my own wallpapers to LL's desktop wallpaper directory.
Could someone tell me which directory they are stored in?
Many thanks

Hi, brand new to LL.  I read a lot of  posts etc. about LL and LVMs but since I'm not really knowledgeable about LVMs  and didn't see my situation I think it wise to ask for help  before I do myself  in.
First off , I don't see where to add my machine  info to my profile  / acct.  So I'll give some  info too. Hope that's  all right.

Host: jcc Kernel: 3.16.0-38-generic x86_64 (64 bit, gcc: 4.8.2)
          Desktop: Cinnamon 2.6.13  Distro: Linux Mint 17.2 Rafaela
Machine:  System: Dell product: OptiPlex 755
          Mobo: Dell model: 0GM819 Bios: Dell version: A09 date: 03/11/2008
CPU:      Quad core Intel Core2 Quad CPU Q6600 (-MCP-) cache: 4096 KB    Graphics:  Card: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD/ATI] RV610 [Radeon HD 2400 PRO/XT]


I have a 500 GB drive which is my secondary drive btw.

with  /dev/sdb1  524 MB — 464 MB free (11.6% full) Linux (Bootable)  Ext4 (version 1.0) — Mounted at /media/jcc/1810461e-55eb-4adb-93ac-9dbef1c32f1a

and
/dev/sdb2      500 GB (499,582,500,864 bytes)      Linux LVM      LVM2 Physical Volume (LVM2 001)  Installed on this  is Pisi os
 
Pisi  =    435 GB — 350 GB free (19.6% full)        /dev/VolGroup/lv_home          Ext4 (version 1.0) — Mounted at /media/jcc/d70d0a6a-88e2-428a-ac4f-48e6ec95dfbd 

However, I also have , installed  alongside Pisi  ,  Semplice os and  a 10 GB block device for swap 

Semplice  =        54 GB — 46 GB free (13.5% full)          /dev/VolGroup/lv_root    Ext4 (version 1.0) — Mounted at /media/jcc/61abe400-ef78-4922-a07b-c8d67c6a8679

my question is:  I want  to install  LL  on this drive  . Is it  safe or proper partitioning to just resize with gparted and create a new partition and install to it  ;  or is there more to it than that?    At the  moment  this drive is my only one with enough size / space  left  to install to.

If a screenshot  of gparted  or  " disks "  is needed let me  know .                    thank you all very much

I have installed lxde but do not see an option to select it from the default login manager ?

After the last few updates, I received this message in the update log:
"The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  libhdb9-heimdal libkdc2-heimdal libntdb1 python-ntdb
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them"
How do I exactly perform this task?

Hi..I want to reinstall LL .  I dual boot Windows Vista,Lite,Mint Mate,Mint Xfce,LXLE and Peppermint. Id like to install LL in the partition LL is occupying. I have done a search and could not find a tutorial. I can follow instructions but some of the terms experts use lose me. I have installed these distros along side Vista but never replaced a distro in the same partition. Any help would be much appreciated.  Dan

Really??? I've asked them for an explanation for this.





Look like they don't want to host Linux ISO's any more.

"[size=1.35em]Google Chrome to block Flash by default, potentially dealing final blow to hated software"
http://www.theverge.com/2016/5/15/116793...later-2016

Questions:
a) Does this mean pepperflash-non free is also on the way out.
b) What happens in the switch over period where "millions"? of sites become un-usable.
c) The repository hosts adobe-flash plugin- is this now safe? should it be used as all?
d) What are the ramifications for LL?

as an aside - should the same be considered for Java plugins - unsafe ?
