Hi,

This is the first time I came across such a strange network problem like this.

What I am trying to do is to get onto a certain website but everything I have tried just doesn't work. The strange thing is I can get onto other websites with no problems whatsoever. I tested both Firefox and Chrome but I get the same result with the website in question, when I type in the address of the site in the address bar, I can see the indicator trying to do something but it just sits there, no data is loaded into the browser. Even in the host system nothing I've tried will work (I am using LinuxLite 2.8 in a virtual machine on a mac using El Capitan, the mac is the host, and I am on a wireless connection).

I had a talk with the tech person who provides internet access thinking it might be something on that end but he thought it was not that since I can get other websites besides the one I want. I've checked proxies, browser plugins, etc. I even did a traceroute on the site, it will go to a certain part and then no data gets transferred. If I ping the site, no pings happen. I've contacted the owner of the site, she's given me some things to try out but that hasn't done anything either.

If you have any ideas on how I might solve this problem, please let me know as I have completely run out of things to try out. Wow, what a mind blower, maybe it's something simple that's not set right but I don't know what to look for.

Thanks,

Hello Linux Lite Community:
In the past few days, whenever I try to install updates, about halfway through the process it freezes and a window appears with a red "X" stating, "Couldn't fetch the package cache information lists".
Attached is the system report I performed after several update attempts.

We've removed Chrome from the Lite Software 32bit version.

For 32bit Google Chrome:

Open a terminal and do each of these commands one at a time:

Install Chromium via Lite Software. Do not keep Chrome installed on 32bit Linux Lite. You are placing your system at risk by taking this chance.

For 64bit Google Chrome:

Open a terminal and do each of these commands one at a time:

Getting this popup when trying to install updates. 


When trying to change updates server, I get the following:

With only 1 gig of ram and minimal cpu I need to watch what I'm doing carefully. The task manager progress graphs and % reports do the job, except it is using 10% to 20% of cpu itself. I'd like to find a low resource cpu/memory tool for desktop use. Truly a little meter in the taskbar would be best.
Anybody know of such a tool?
Thanks

Heya LL users and geeks  ... I'm a TI and Infrastructure Analyst in Brazil and I have started to use LL 2.8 on all my equipments.

I got a really good impression. It is fast and stable.

I hope learn more and grow with LL comunnity as well.  ;D ;D

[size=1em]Probably one for the Devs.??[/size]

[size=1em]Out of curiosity how complex would it be to get Linux Lite on a Raspberry PI,[/size]

[size=1em]especially one the the new Quad Core 1.2GHz with WiFi&BT Raspberry PI 3.??[/size]

[size=1em]I know there is a Debian Distro, and various others.[/size]

[size=1em]But there is a Ubuntu 14.04 LTS distro for the PI[/size]


Edit:
Just found this Ubuntu Mate for Raspberry PI3
I'm curious, don't want to detract from Linux Lite Aims.

Positive experiences with Linux Lite have been dominating my cyber-world.  It is polished, stable, and quite robust for being a 'lite' distro.  My implementation is not so lite.  There is nothing that I know of that gives some other distro the edge.  Linux Lite has become my favorite distro in a very short time.  Amazing, eh?

Can i somehow enable greeter-show-manual-login=true i lightdm config? I need this for domain login.

Hi!
So, after trying Linux Lite and poking around it since mid-September, I made it my lone O/S last week.  I nuked my dear old Vista, ending almost 20 years of working with Windows. I don't do so much with LL beside surfing and experimenting with VM's.  I honestly thought that it would be a difficult move away from a GUI-centered O/S into a universe of command lines, but this is not what LL is about. I really feel confortable using it.  And this community seems very friendly and helpful. I am glad I found it!
