It seems the newest Steam package is already provided through your Linux Lite repository.
Btw, I thought it would be a good "feature" to include GOG Galaxy in your repository as well when it is released.
A bit self inflicted perhaps, but I tried to install another desktop (enlightenment/E17), then removed it and now I've lost the wifi icon where I access my VPN. I assume these 2 things are related. I can't find any way to get it back.
I converted two internal partitions to ext4 and they ended up with exclusive root ownership and viewing permissions. It seems to me that root ownership of the partition is a good thing, but I want all admins to be able to read and write, and others to read.
I didn't have any success with
sudo chmod u=rwx,g=rx,o=r /seagate100
so I opened the partition as administrator in Thunar, and went to the Properties/Permissions tab, and there set the Group to sudo. It took a long time to process, and though it was nominally successful and I now can see and access the partition's contents, it now says there are inconsistencies in the permissions.
Is what I am trying to do the best way to deal with the permissions? And what is the best way to achieve it?
Thanks,
Paul
EDIT:
Looks like this is solved. It seems the problem was when I switched the Group to sudo. The dialog made the change immediately, which left owner root with rwx permissions, but the new group sudo, of which root is a member, still with only Read permissions. That's a no-no. I went back and equated the permissions of owner and group (rwx, via command line), and after a few minutes the conflict disappeared.
It would be better if the dialog waited for all changes before implementing any, for the sake of conflicts and also only parsing the files once. But in any case this worked out.

I'm having problems running a windows app in WINE, which until recently, worked ok but now crashes when attempting to load a file. Searching wine in synaptic, shows the latest version available but does not show any wine version installed. Can I safely re-install the latest wine through synaptic or will that mess up future Lite Updates? The application is a specialist one with no Linux substitute, so I must run it in wine.
TIA for any assistance.
Well I am new to linux and decided to give lite ago along side my windows7.
What I can not understand is how to install and get a virtual keyboard up and running in lite.
Would some kind person please point me in the right direction.
Thanks.
Its now sorted thank you i found the information needed here https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/sugge...5/#msg6865
hello!!
my gecko media player in mozilla is outdated and i update it in gecko media player
web page but i dnt know how to install it..., plz help me how to do it!
Hello, I just want to say thanks for such a nice clean install with no effort , all my old hardware was sorted from the get go. That means a lot to non power users when hours aren't wasted just trying to install a new system. I simply wanted to use Linux on a second hard drive along with XP on another, I plan on doing the INTERNET using this Lite to help make the old XP more secure. I see nothing out of the box to not like, it's clean and seems to roll with what I want. It took a while to find what I wanted in a Linux system. I like mint and Ubuntu but neither is now giving the older hardware a chance to install, very irritating to install and have a nice screen only disappear after the first boot into the new system, not to mention the resources are much too demanding for a 10 year old computer. I tried correcting display driver issues following other users experiences only to have another obstacle like missing libc and other things happening. So I kept reading and looking and found this nice distro. I'll be sure and talk kindly about it to friends

Hi all,
Registered yesterday, after testing LinuxLite 2.4 for some weeks.
I last fired up Windows about ten years ago...so I 'm not really in Lite's target group.
I've been using several distros over the years, with Puppy Linux as my long-time favourite.
Lite is impressive! Clearly a lot of work/attention to details/love has gone into it.
Of course I miss some of Puppy's features: its small size, its speed and the power to work efficiently as root (administrator), but let's not compare apples with oranges.
Linux Lite is a wonderful project. Congrats to the developers group!
