Hello,
I am running this via iso image, version 2.4. It is on an old XP machine I am trying to bring back to life for browsing use only by the elderly to go in a computer lab. So far this seems really good. Is there a way to get it to run off the hard drive in case the disc gets removed?
Thank you...

In the software repository there is the old version of clamav 98.6 which I have downloaded and it works fine. Problem is, there is a new and updated version that is not added to all the Linux distros and so we have to wait till it gets added to software manager. Will that be done in Lite? Seems I cannot download and install unless I manually rebuild it and I am not that experienced nor knowledgeable
to be able to do that. Comodo does not work for me in Lite. Cannot fix the file drive filter even after all the on line suggestions to try which means I cannot scan individual files. Thanks to anyone who might have some answers.

Hi
For some time now we have had a dual boot setup with Linux Lite and Vista Ultimate. We had it set up in an older Compaq Presario SR5412DE, the specs can be seen at http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/Comp...c01386897/
The time came to retire the Compaq so we had a go at building a new desktop (which was a bit nerve racking but fun). We have now returned our attention to the old Compaq, what to do with it... One option is to replace the HDD and run it as a standalone Linux Lite machine.
The current thinking is to replace the existing HDD with something like a Seagate 500GB 7200 rpm 64mb and add a wireless setup like the following one from Asus;

In my head this looks like a simple task, but then I am a beginner :-) so I am looking for a bit of general input/views from people who know what to do/avoid, is this a realistic plan?
Thanks.

I was installing another OS and by mistake it deleted grub from my Linux Lite drive.
I still have everything there, but it won't boot. It goes to a Grub Rescue prompt.
How can I reinstall grub on my drive and be able to boot into my Linux Lite?
I have it setup just the way I want it and would hate to have to reinstall.
Thanks!

| [SOLVED] LL won't reboot after plugging in an external monitor |

I have an LL/win8.1 dual boot UEFI enabled setup on a laptop.
I can use an external monitor with the laptop in win8.1, to give me two screens to work from. The system is merely, 'plug-and-play'
without any complication.
However, when I rebooted into LL with the second monitor plugged in, it failed to boot, the progress bar hanging indefinitely.
On removing the external monitor from LL, and restarting, LL still hangs on bootup so something is messed up.
I'm assuming this can be fixed by booting into a live enviroment and using the terminal, but could someone explain how to do this.
Many thanks for any help with this...
Regards
Mike

| Screen Mirroring from Windows Phone 8.1 to Linux |

Hello to all,
Recently I've been curious about screen mirroring between my phone and Linux Lite setup. Namely the reason, watching videos on my phone directly from within an app
In all honestly I'm not the best at working things out and wasn't sure where to start. :o
I know I can download videos from within the app to my phone and transfer over to my netbook but I thought this could get fiddly. ???
On my phone I have Miracast /screen mirroring capabilities and when I connect via USB cable the phone in question, it charges - but is not recognized as far as I'm aware as a device on the system/desktop at all.
My first thought, I would need possibly an application to work as a go-between like a video player so perhaps why not force an install through Wine perhaps?
I really wouldn't know where to begin, your answers and suggestions are appreciated.
Apologies if this is posted in the wrong section.
