Is there an easy way to get the proprietary AMD legacy driver to work fine with LinuxLite (3.19.0-51)?? I have the video card mentioned in the topics subject...

to me it looks like Linux Lite lacks the ability to save preferences of a dual monitor setup...

I have an old Radeon 9600, and i guess community drivers are installed. I can set up my monitors now pretty fine, since i exchanged one of them to a more standard device, but every time I boot up again, it seems that X has forgot what settings i already have done.

should i try to delete a formerly created Xorg.conf?
I created one before, because like I already mentioned; I tried to set up another monitor which is now in screwdriver heaven and for this old monitor i tried to create an xorg.conf because the max. resolution of that device didnt show up in "Monitor Settings"... I had to play the Xrandr game everytime...

Could somebody please help me? Or create a non-terminal solution which really saves monitor settings and also makes custom resolutions available that are within the bounds of technical possibility?

  Hi
I am another one having a problem getting updates.  I have tried running updates automatically and get the error,  "Couldn't fetch the package cache information lists"
I have run sudo apt-get update  in the terminal, it appears to work but  the following text appears at the end;
W: Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/di...le/Release Unable to find expected entry 'main/binary-i386/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)
E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.



Does this mean most of the updates have installed, or did the update process fail, and of course how to fix it?  :-)
    Thanks

I am sorry, this is probably silly, but I am completely new to Linux. I am running Lite 2.8, and I accidentally disabled my WiFi connection. After rebooting, it still doesn't show up in the networks panel (lower right on the screen). How can I re-enable it?

I am receiving this error when I update:  3a5.1.1~rc2-0ubuntu1~trusty0_amd64.deb: trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/liblibreofficekitgtk.so', which is also in package libreoffice-core 1:5.0.1~rc2-0ubuntu1~trusty1

Should I reinstall Libreoffice?

Just wanted to give a big 'heads-up' to 'Darktable' https://www.darktable.org/, probably my favourite photo-editor which is especially good for 'raw' file use. Unfortunately the version that is available through LL2.8 is rather out-dated (I had to add v2.0 from their PPA as my camera wasn't 'recognized' by v1.4)

Enjoy....
