Package Update Indicator Is Useless

Posted by: Mister User - 08-30-2025, 08:48 AM - Forum: Updates - Replies (5)

	The Package Update Indicator on the system tray always says it's up to date. However, if I do a manual update, Linux Lite says there are updates available. What is the use of the Package Update Indicator if it is not notifying me of new updates?

Set Home Folder

Posted by: LanceCorporal - 08-20-2025, 10:15 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (3)

Linux Lite 7.8 - User level 4/10.

I have installed the boot os on a smaller SSD drive and keep my user files on a muck larger drive which is backed up weekly.

The issue is if I click the 'home' icon folder on the desktop it goes to the smaller drive (not a huge deal) and if I go to the file location on the
larger drive and delete a file it does not go into the recycle bin but is deleted permanently.

So I am looking for a way to set the location of the user folder and recycle bin. I have looked for a utility to do so without success, would be a great feature.

Any help is appreciated.

NEW Wiki replaces Help Manual online

Posted by: valtam - 08-19-2025, 11:12 AM - Forum: On Topic - No Replies

As the title says, the Help Manual is to be replaced by our new Wiki.
I've finished migrating all of the content from the Manual to the Wiki.

Points to note:

- Wiki will replace Help Manual wording and link at the top of the Linux Lite OS Menu.
- With this new format, anyone can contribute easily, in the next few days I'll be integrating it into Gitlab so people can add to the Wiki.
- Wiki is 80% complete, mostly Contents links to organize.

Feel free to proof read it.

I'm very excited about this change. I hope that most of you are too Smile

	Out of all of the feedback I receive, a large portion of it regards how busy it looks and how it can be hard to find things. Hopefully, this is all now resolved. Still a few bits and pieces to tidy up but overall I'm happy with the result. Let me now what you think. https://www.linuxliteos.com/
