My Dropbox panel indicator disappears whenever I close and reopen the laptop lid.  Nothing is set to suspend or hibernate when the lid closes.  I created a launcher to refresh the panel when this occurs.  The command I use for the launcher is lxterminal -e "xfce4-panel -r".  I'll continue to use this as a workaround, and I'm passing it along in case others have the issue.

Hello everyone,
I hope you guys doing well.
I installed Linux Lite 2.6 on my Dell Laptop and being happy with it ^ ^

I can't find my printer icon. I looked in the system menu, nothing, & I don't know how to do it via the command line. I've also tried a general search for "printer" & nothing.
Thanks for any help.

A few more wallpapers in different colors.

Running LL2.6.
When viewing the forums anonymously (with the dark theme), my cpu runs hot, cycling between 5% up to 100% CPU usage and the fan runs fast with either Firefox or Chrome browsers. The PC behaves like a fan heater! When I log in, I use the lighter Curve theme as my default and the CPU usage drops to around 15% to 20%. The PC runs cooler and the fan slows down. Other websites seem to run at around 5% CPU, so what is going on in the LL forum and does anyone else have this problem or know the cause or cure?

Edit: High CPU load seems to occur when viewing the forum home page.

Hello Devs and more knowledgeable Users

Having an issue regarding Laptop compatibility.
Mostly I use a (Lenovo T430 miniDP to DP connected) external screen so therefore I have set XFCE power manager to not do anything when the lid is closed (a cheap mans dock replacement ).

So the issue here is since I use my Laptop with the Lid closed and do a Shutdown via the Whisker menu button and then click Shutdown,
it seems to sometimes suspend instead of shutting down the Laptop.

Has someone figured out a way to correct that behavior?

Since this is my only means of using a computer system (no need to burn that 14" display screen unnecessarily). It would be nice to have a fix for it.

Thank you in advance,

Hi,


I have been doing some clean-up on 1 off my installs, HP Laptop.
I use this a lot to test/experiment before committing to a live PC.


I have found a bunch of .trash folders on different partitions, with large amount files.
I have different partitions to make it easier to include/exclude things from back-ups.
(ex: I have a partition called "vbox", keep all Virtual Machines separate from regular back-ups)


Doing some Googling led me to:
1. If you delete a file in your /home folder they end up in rubbish bin, so you can empty them manually, unless you do a [shift]+[delete]
2. If you delete a file on something "not" in home, a "hidden" .trash folder is created with the deleted files, unless you do a [shift]+[delete]


What I couldn't find was a definitive,
"Can I delete these non /home .trash folders manually, or is there a specific method to not mess up the file system"


Thanks...

I am having a problem with Light-Locker. When I manually lock the machine or suspend/hibernate my session, my machine wakes up to a blank screen with no login or username visible or a password field for me to even type in. I have tried to diagnose this issue for a couple of days with no luck such yet.  . If it all possible, I would like to keep Light-Locker as it has worked before with no issue.

System report of my machine is attached if needed (Dell Inspiron M5110 Laptop)

Hello there, I've installed LinuxLite in a lot of computers without having any problems with the repositories, but now I had lots of "404 not found" and other repositories errors with a fresh install of LinuxLite 2.0 and after resolving each of the problematic repos one by one I ended up with a very messed up sources.list and theres still some repos failling. Can anybody please give me a working sources.list to fix mine?.

My current sources.list is:

English is not my primary language so, sorry for any misspelling.
