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%]

To help view popular Topics with a lot of Posts is it possible to have the following options  to save wading through lots of old posts

1) have the posts with the latest at the top of the list or the option to view " original post " or " latest" first

2) have the go to page dialogue  at the top of each page rather than having to scroll through a page of posts

3) have an "In" Topic search .
If I have Googled a problem etc  and been linked to a Topic I an not directed to the actual post but to the first post . I then have to read though lots of irrelevant posts to find what I want even though the relevant post is quoted in the search results. With big posts it is time consuming and frustrating
.When the post is "Solved" it would be helpfull to go directly to the Solution

Hi everyone,

Longtime Linux user but new here. I tend to be a Debian WM user and it's been a little while since using a DE, certainly didn't think I'd enjoy a system using Xfce but must say, I'm quite impressed with Linux Lite and find it a very responsive, well organized, fast and surprisingly easy to customize distribution.

I'd like to thank the dev(s) and all involved for all your hard work! 

Smile

I have a hard drive with Only Linux Distros on it no windows on any of my machines. I have a couple of Linux distros installed and working fine. I partitioned and installed LL 2.8 beta. all goes well until it is finished installing and time to boot. I then get a error message that says Error: File name expected. I can boot log into my other distros but LL will not boot. Seems several are having the same problem. What is going on and how can I fix it. I refuse to install windows. I want to install LL on a slower computer because it is not so resource intensive. If I can't get this issue resolved I will have to find another distro. I would really like to get this fixed as I used LL on another machine which I no longer have.
Mel

*edit*
This did the trick: https://www.linuxliteos.com/manual/install.html#setlang. But only for the Whisker menu. How can i also change the folder names in Thunar from English to Dutch?

Beside the usage of the same desktop environment, what is basically the main difference between Linux Lite and Xubuntu? In what way does Linux Lite differ from let's say Mint Xfce, Xubuntu and other Debian/Ubuntu derivatives using Xfce?

I got to thinking about what windows users are used to having available from the menu, and thought it would be nice if the menu had access to user folders like the Documents, Downloads, Pictures, and others.  So I made the menu entries on my system to see if it would work. Below is a screenshot of my results.

For the item entries, in the command I entered "thunar" followed by a space, and the folder name of the folder for each item.
Example:  thunar Documents
