  Wifi connects but stops a lot
Posted by: fred - 05-26-2015, 12:15 PM - Forum: Network - Replies (13)

Hi
We have installed LL on a new (1TB) HDD in a Compaq Presario sr5412de desktop, it has 4gb ram and (I think) a dual core 1.8 cpu.
The LL install went without incident and all updates were loaded while it was online via cable.
I plugged in an Edimax EW-7811un  USB WIFI  and established a connection to our Netgear R6520 router, I didn't test it beyond checking if it can go online.
I then moved the computer to its workstation which is less than 10m line of sight from the router.

Unfortunately I have found the WIFI drops out randomly and doesn't automatically restart.  The only way to reconnect is to manually disconnected and then reconnect or restart the computer.  There doesn't appear to be a pattern associated with the WIFI failures.
I think the problem doesnt rest with the router because we also have an Easybox router running in the same area, switching the WIFI to the Easybox doesn't change the connect-fail problem.

Any suggestions appreciated;
Thanks.

  Error: KERNELS - Lite Tweaks
Posted by: Zead - 05-25-2015, 11:54 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (5)

Happens every time I remove kernels via Lite Tweaks. Is it normal bug? Or maybe it failed to remove some kernel files?

  Hopefully found a non-bloatware fast, responsive OS
Posted by: jim7fl - 05-24-2015, 11:52 AM - Forum: Introductions - Replies (5)

Just installed in virtual box and testing. Hoping this might become a replacement for Linux Mint which argues with me excessively.

Small amount of background on me.

First computer was a 64K dual floppy IBM PC in early 1984 or 1983, I forget.  Anyway, DOS 1.0, Basic 1.0.  Ordered the basic machine from Sears Business in Atlanta without floppy drives.  Ordered two Tandon drives from somewhere else and installed myself.

The kids at church are always telling me, "you know WAAAAYYYY too much about computers for your age!".  Smile

  Looking for a Volunteer
Posted by: valtam - 05-23-2015, 06:03 AM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (6)

Hi folks,

With the new Help Manual well under way, we're looking for someone to help us finish the Glossary page.

From the Manual, we've gathered the following words:

Code:
3g
alsa
architecture
bios
compositing
credentials
decrypt
desktop environment
developer
domain
driver
encrypt
ext2
ext3
ext4
filesystem
firmware
free software
fstab
gnu
gpt
grub
ip address
kernel
legacy
linux
logical partition
mbr
mount
nas
ntfs
open source
package
partition
ppa
primary partition
pulseaudio
repo
repository
samba
secure boot
ssd
su
sudo
terminal
trim
ubuntu
uefi
umount
uuid
vpn
workgroup
xfce

So that we can transfer the final result quickly to html, we need it to be in the following format:

In LibreOffice Calc, in 2 columns. First Column is titled Word, second column is titled Meaning.

[Image: Ym7guKL.png]

The Meaning should be around 10 words or less. It needs to be consise and simple. Please, no drawn out, paragraph explanations for each word Smile

Your name will appear on the Glossary page and the main page, so you will be credited Smile

Please reply to this thread if you are interested.

Thank you,

The Documentation Team.

  Linux Lite boot and shutdown issues.
Posted by: littlefeather - 05-22-2015, 04:18 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (4)

Hi.
First visit here, thanks for hosting this forum, and thanks for this excellent Linux distro.
My fondest hope is to replace windows with Linux Lite.

I have encountered a small bug similar to kevin kane, here:
https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/insta...fi-signal/
This post was moved here from kevin kanes topic.

When booting ver 2.4 from a live CD or a USB stick, the startup is a bit slow, and the shutdown does not finish.
The .iso hashes check OK.

Burned the cd using BurnCDCC in windows xp.
Boots and runs ok, but the shutdown is slow, and doesn't finish.  When the scrollbar finishes, nothing happens.
But after the scrollbar does finish, tapping the spacebar on the keyboard turns off the power to the desktop.

Installed to a 4gb Verbatim USB stick using YUMI version 2.0.1.6.  Didn't work.
Boots to a black screen with a flashing cursor in the top left corner.

Reinstalled to the USB stick using win32diskimager ver 0.9.2.
Boots and runs ok, but has the same shutdown issue as the cd.

Gparted running in ver 2.4 pops up an error saying "LibParted bug found!.  Invalid partition table - recursive partition on /dev/sdb."
Acronis Disk Director running in windows shows the USB to have one partition of 758 mb with an "Invalid format" error, and 2.99 gb of unallocated space. 

@ rokytnji
The USB install is a live session now, am hoping to get it to persistence.

More information about this machine, but this is not the machine that will eventually receive the installation:   
linux@linux:~$  inxi -Fxxxz
. . . details deleted by OP . . .
linux@linux:~$ ^C

  screen saver and shut down
Posted by: tomt - 05-21-2015, 02:54 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (12)

Hoping for some help here. I have a problem with sceensaver. I Cannot turn off screen saver even though I removed it from software and all other packages related to screensaver. Computer goes black after a certain period of time and only comes back on when I move the curser that includes even if I am watching a video. I am on an HP desktop with 500+GB and Linux Lite 2.4 with Adobe flash updated on all three browsers that i am running. I have removed all and any software related to screen saving. Running 3.13.0-24-generic (x86_64) GNU compiler version 4.8.2 (ubuntu 4.8.2-19 ubuntu 1) Do not need screen saver and need to fix unexpected  black out every 15 or twenty minutes. I have no graphical front end to adjust. Thanks to anyone with an idea on how to fix this.
