Hello everyone, I am new to LL and have a question. Is it possible to eliminate the need to enter passwords when the system wakes up and when the monitor wakes up. It gets slightly annoying to constantly be entering my password.

Cheers, David.

I have tried installing flash in chromium  through install/remove software but without success.


BBC i Player tells me I need to install Adobe Flash player whereas ITV player tells me I need to update Flash player, so neither player will work in Chromium, yet both work flawlessly in Firefox.


I know I could use Firefox just for these but as everything previously worked flawlessly in Chrome (32bit Linux) I would expect to be able to achieve the same result in Chromium.


Any help or advise in achieving my goal would be very much appreciated

Can Linux Lite OS be repaired without uninstalling etc
I have a problem with Open Office Writer etc. When Writer is opened the Program Flash screen shows briefly then nothing
[/size]The only reference I found was  https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+so...tion/60838
In spite of lots of help the only solution by the OP was to reinstall Ubuntu

I have tried Purging both LibreOffice and OpenOffice and reinstalled OpenOffice but the problem still occurs,
The same problem does not occur on another Linux-lite 2.6  installation  on another computer .

I would like to avoid having to install Linux-lite from scratch

Hello.

I'm noticing when I want to type a left bracket i.e. SHIFT 9 on my keyboard, it does not display, no matter what program I'm using. I use this quite often so it's rather annoying. It was working previously when I had Linux Mint Cinnamon installed on my Asus Zenbook UX-21 for a few weeks. I had other issues with Cinnamon so decided to ditch and install LL. Everything is fine except for this little problem. Given it was working previously using Cinnamon, I don't think it's a hardware problem. Can anybody help please?

Thanks
Paul

Hello, I've decided to leave Linux Lite for Manjaro. I would like to thank the dev team, and the community to helping me ease into GNU/Linux as a newbie.
Goodbye, and thank you,

Greetings, all.  My Gateway LT40 notebook computer runs a dual boot with LL and AntiX's MX-15.  (LL is my preferred distribution, but I like to play around with alternatives.)  Playing Youtube videos has been a challenge on this little machine. 

To avoid browser issues, I installed SMTube in both distros, with VLC being the player it calls.  Well, with this setup LL did OK playing the videos at about 80-90% CPU usage.  But MX-15 ran with 100% CPU usage and usually the image froze while the sound played.

After some bumbling around I went to the SMTube settings menu and found that it could use several different players.  I installed and tried SMPlayer with better results than VLC, but with the video lagging the audio by about 1 second in MX-15. 

Then I tried mplayer, which is a command line program.  Bingo!  With mplayer the backend to SMTube, Youtube videos played just fine in both distros.  LL still uses less CPU than MX-15, but they are both way down from using VLC or SMPlayer.  I did have to reduce the desired resolution to 360 to get the full video frame, but I blame my 1240 x 600 display for that.  Also, there are fewer controls while watching the video, but this doesn't bother me. 

In retrospect this all makes sense, because as a command line program I'd expect mplayer to use fewer resources.  But it took me a while to figure this out.  I thought I'd pass my experiences along to the LL forum in case this would help someone else.  Linux Lite could actually play the videos without changes, but by using the SMTube and mplayer combination the CPU usage is down to something like 10-15%, a big jump downward, and I like that.  If I'm playing a music video just to listen, I can minimize the video window and do other things at the same time.

It works great in audacity.
i want to use it to search on chromium like "Ok Google"
i read where it was disabled in 1 form of chromium as a spyware culprit.
i can dial out in chromium gmail calls / hangouts, but no one can hear me though I can hear who I call.  i can call out in both chromium and firefox.  Both call out and i can hear them, but with no microphone for them to hear me.

I really want the gmail phone function.  how do i do this?

Is it possible to stop the Font size in Posts changing in size when a correction is made - I deleted a word in the middle of a sentence and the rest of the sentence text was reduced to minimum size .


It also happens with Cut and paste within the same document .


I have been told to use "Paste as plain Text" when pasting from other sources and thought this could be made the only Paste option .


This should not happen  (deleted a mistake > got new font  size ) [size=78%]effect  deleting [/size][/size](changed text size ) within a line Colin [size=78%]
