  Firefox crashes
Posted by: tomt - 04-25-2016, 04:30 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (11)

New problem on Firefox. You tube crashes after about 30 mins or so. Shuts down the computer and I have tried all the suggested fixes on Firefox and nothing seems to solve he problem. Not a big deal as it does not happen on Google or Epiphany which leads me to conclude the problem is with Firefox. Anyone else with this problem? Refreshed, disabled add on`s etc. tried all that.

  remove login password at startup
Posted by: roywood - 04-25-2016, 03:03 PM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - Replies (3)

I set up LL to require a password at login. I would like to undo this requirement, and preferably, not even have to click a user to get to the desktop.  The reason is this that I only do remote login from a different computer to get on this one as it is running as a media server and is kept in a difficult to reach place.  If I ever reboot the computer remotely I lose access because it is stuck at log in. 

Thanks for the help.

  Linux Lite 3.0 Default Wallpaper
Posted by: valtam - 04-25-2016, 09:25 AM - Forum: Wallpapers - Replies (15)

I've started building Linux Lite 3.0

One of the first things we need is a new, default wallpaper. This is a very important decision as it is likely to last right through Series 3. If you're good at this kind of thing, I'd like to see if someone in the community would like to have a go at this.

The wallpaper should have the following:

- Easy on the eyes, something you can look at for a long time.
- Must be 1920 x 1080 resolution only.
- Must feature the Linux Lite feather logo in gold - https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/membe...sed-logos/ (see Transparent png's)
- No writing, just the logo.
- Look at the Linux Lite 2.8 default wallpaper to guide you on the simplicity we're looking for.

I think that's everything. Good luck, get creative Smile

Thank you,

Jerry

  Problems in new LTS flavors of Ubuntu
Posted by: Coastie - 04-25-2016, 04:20 AM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (7)

I have seen some reviews reporting problems in the new LTS flavors of Ubuntu. How will these problems effect Linux Lite 3.0? Delay 3.0 release?

How long will Linux Lite 2.8 be supported?

  Only 3840 x 2160 and 0.0Hz appears in Display settings menu in Linux Lite 2.4
Posted by: Netuzist - 04-24-2016, 06:27 PM - Forum: Video Cards - Replies (8)

Hi there folks,

A while back I updated several packages pertaining to Linux Lite installed in my modified chromebox with the i915 installed as active driver.  Time passed then I bought a Samsung Un50JU7100 UHDTV and now when I go to the display settings menu to lower the screen resolution because text and icons are tiny I can't because all the other screen resolutions are gone. What I would like is to restore this feature just like it was when I first installed Linux Lite 2.4 on this machine so that I can choose any screen resolution just as in the live usb.  If this is possible, please let me know if not just tell me why ?  Thanks in advance.  Smile

  timekpr: inadvertently locked myself (admin user) out & can't boot - how to fix?
Posted by: m654321 - 04-24-2016, 10:59 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (6)

I use timekpr on my son's PC to limit the amount of time he spends on it: it works very
effectively.

To set his daily time allowance I have two accounts: admin user (me) and my son's account.
From the admin a/c I can set his daily time allowance for his account.

However, today I accidentally locked myself out of the admin a/c so am unable to get into the PC
at all.  As superuser, I attempted to inspect the following files in the terminal, as I have reason to
believe the timekpr file settings will be there...

Code:
gksu leafpad etc/security/access.conf
gksu leafpad etc/security/time.conf

However, all this comes up with is text which shows examples of settings that can be used. It doesn't actually
show the contents of the root files... 

Thanks for any help in advance
Mike

  How do I remove the stored boot options in NVRAM - command line or GUI?
Posted by: m654321 - 04-23-2016, 04:17 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (7)

My main laptop (Asus G750) appears to have NVRAM (non-volatile random access memory).

This seems to interfere with booting the computer following removal of the HDD or SSD containing the operating system, and swapping it for another drive with a different operating system.  This problem (and its solution) was previously discussed at https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/tutor...y-enabled/ (see Section F – problem 1).  What I would like to know is how to avoid the above problem altogether. Put simply, is there a either a command line or GUI method for clearing NVRAM of its stored boot options, before I swap the the drives (containing the different operating systems)?

Many thanks in advance for any help on this one.

Mike
