We're on the hunt for new wallpapers for Linux Lite 2.8

If you're unsure of what type we are looking for, have a look in the current selection. They should be:

- High quality images
- jpg or png
- A minimum resolution of 1920 x 1080
- Virus scanned - https://www.virustotal.com/
- Have a generic wide appeal (no niche or bizarre stuff)

Thank you

Hello again,


I have always used VLC as my go-to media player...even before my linux days. And it has always worked perfectly for playing DVDs. However, recently I was trying to watch a couple DVDs and had issues with the video skipping sections of the movie during playback. The video would pause.....then skip a couple minutes of the movie before continuing. (This of course greatly interrupted family movie night). I tried running this DVD on 3 different machines....all running LL 2.6 and all running VLC. Finally, we finished the night switching to my wife's Windows 10 machine, also running VLC, in order to watch the film.


The next day I installed SMPlayer to try the same DVD and it played fine. However, I cannot get to the DVD menu in SMPlayer and movie's since have had problems getting to the main feature without the menu. Tonight, once again, family movie night required a Win 10 machine to run the movie correctly.


Soooooo....what has happened to VLC and its ability to play DVDs? What other media player options are there that will support DVD menus? I am frustrated having to revert to Windows just to do family movie night.....


Thanks in advance....

I installed LL along side W7 and dual boot worked for 1 day but now when I select W7, computer goes blank for a second and then loops back to the grub dual boot screen.  Around and around in a continuous loop .  LL boots up and is a fine program but I still need W7 occasionally.........I also downloaded the LL 2.6 .iso file and burned it to disk.  Do I just run the 2.6 iso and install it over the installed  LL 2.4 ?  I'm not really sure what to do.

but I have not idea how to install it..

I have just bought a Usbasp programmer for updating the firmware on my quadcopter.Will this work with Linux Lite or do I need to do something to make it work.Will LL detect it when I plug it into my usb port .

Thanks

I'm using the following command line to make my username in light red.

export PS1="\[\e[1;31m\][\u@\h\w]\$ \[\e[0m\] "

When I try to make my change permanent in the .bashrc file, it just screws it up. What should I enter into the .bashrc file?

old command:
export PS1="\[\e[1;31m\][\u@\h\w]\$ \[\e[0m\] "

I'm using the latest version of LL. Was able to get my laptop to recognize my broadcom wifi but it now asks for my wifi login and keyring password. Anyone know a fix?

In all the years I've been using Linux it's always had problems with wifi and ethernet. Windows solved that issue with Win 95. I'm using a Dell Latitude D620 and forget how to fix the built in wireless. Anyone know the answer? Thanks

Hi, my name is Lynne and this is my very first time at joining any sort of forum at all. Linux Lite has persuaded me. 

I live in Australia and am an older lady.

I have been using Ubuntu (mostly) and Kubuntu (some of the time) and Linux Mint (tried it for awhile) over the past few years and now have just installed the latest Linux Lite version. I am not an expert but I do know a little to get me around the distro. During yesterday when I installed it, I did call in here to find a couple of answers and now here I am ... all new and shiny and saying "Hi".

Hi,


I asked for Linux Lite to be added.
(( You need to register and make at least 1 post though ))

It might peak some interest.
