Forum: Installing Linux Lite
- Replies (3)

I've got a machine with Win7 and another linux distro on it. I want to retain Win7 and install LL over the other distro.

The partition table is:

  • Win7 System reserved
  • Win7
  • linux swap (3gb)
  • Other linux distro
The only relevant options on the installer are to wipe the whole drive or "Do something else". But the "Do Something Else" screen has zero instructions on it. I can delete the two existing linux partitions, then I can highlight the resulting unused space, but that "Install Now" looks very intimidating because I do not know whether LL actually will go only onto the highlighted unused space. I don't want to take Windows down.

Any insight would be appreciated.

I have the live LL on a usb stick.  Do I have to run  the installer  from inside LL to make it permanent?
Because I did all the updates, but booting back into the live usb stick, nothing was saved.  It was like starting all over again.
Thanks,
Larry

No idea where this should go.

I've used a wireless Logitech M570 trackball for the past few years (since they came out).  Never a problem running either Windows or Linux Lite until now.  About 2 weeks ago, the trackball started getting wonky.  It acted like the battery was low.  Movement was jerky and sometimes I had to hold the trackball at an odd angle to get it to work.  I replaced the battery a few times with no joy.  I finally figured the trackball might just be wearing out so I bought a new one (same model).  Fresh out of the box and I'm having the same issues.  It's not all the time.  Maybe 60% of the time, off and on.  I'm literally 2' from the computer (and thus, the dongle).

Does this sound like a software issue (with LL) or a hardware issue (with the mobo)?  Or something else?  I don't have a wired trackball to compare to.

Today, we announced on Social Media our desire to listen to feedback about what people want to see in Linux Lite 2.6 when it's released in September. Since work has already begun on this, we'd like to start implementing some of these ideas into the system now. Keep in mind this operating system is built on a foundation of stable, tried and true software, for example we wouldn't include the latest XFCE just because it's available.

I'm really looking forward to all of your suggestions Smile

Hi,

I am a Linux neophyte so forgive me. I want a machine (building it) that will allow me to photo edit. I don't need Photoshop. Pixeluvo , will it run in Linux Lite, also is there software to open Nikon raw .nef files?

Thank you

Forum: Hard Drives and SSDs

I have 4 HDDs and 1 SSD in my case.  The SSD is OS only and the 4 HDDs contain my vast collection of various TV shows (mostly complete series) and movies.  All 4 HDDs were shown (and working) on my desktop earlier today.  Now, I'm missing one.  I tried rebooting but that didn't add the HDD.

What can I do??  I need this HDD.  As money allows, I plan to add extra HDDs to back up what I've got but 1TB HDDs aren't cheap.

Thanks for any help you can give me.
