  Item - Request - Touchpad disable script inclusion.
Posted by: sysdrum - 05-27-2015, 02:28 PM - Forum: Suggestions and Feedback - Replies (4)


I have a simple synaptic touchpad script that disables and re-enables the touchpad given a key press for those who would like to have more control when typing on some laptops. I would like to have it included in the scripts folder and maybe a note about it. I know that under the mouse and touchpad settings you can enable and disable plus set a delay when typing but sometimes that is not usable. For those using a usb mouse a quick key option would be nice so that they can turn it on and off without having to use the menu.
It is a simple yet nice feature that other distros don't have.
It is on my github.
I can post it here for review.

  hide/unhide active window via Window Buttons
Posted by: stop0x0000000a - 05-27-2015, 07:09 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (3)

Hello

Probably that is an easy interface question, but could not find it out with Settings.

Is there a way to disable active window hiding?

For instance I've got two FireFox windows “abc.com” and  “def.com”, “abc” is active and on top.

If I click it again via Window Buttons – abc.com hides and and I got def.com that was hidden behind.

Usually I got 30-40 windows opened and used to click the Panel first no matter that's opened/active now.
If abc is already on top, it disappears and I got wrong window - is there any way to prevent it?

Hello,

I am an experienced ssh user but haven't tried GUI so far.
Looking for XP replacement.

Seems LL will do, it has been running two my desktops and one VBox image for 2 months.
So far so good, thanks for the distro!

  WPS Office
Posted by: jlschwartz - 05-26-2015, 11:49 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (2)

I installed the subject office software but it does not show up in the Office Folder on the Menu but in another folder called Other.  Did that not install correctly?  I expected to be in the Office folder.  I did not see WPS as an option to install using the Lite software system.  Thanks.

Edit: Also, can you tell me if I can change the menu to move the WPS Office files into the Office Folder.  Thanks.

  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.
