Hi folks,

I just recently installed an old Nvidia GeForce 8400 dual head video card in my LL 2.2 machine and am loving the extra space. However, this morning I tried to access virtual console 1 (Ctrl + Alt + 1) and just got a blank screen. I have an application that runs in the background full time on that virtual console, and I could not see its status. I then tried the other virtual consoles with the same results.....no terminal prompt, just a black screen.

Is there an issue with accessing virtual consoles when using multiple monitors??? This always worked fine when I was using a single screen....

Hello

Just installed LL on my netbook, and I love it, but there is one thing I cannot live with. Looking at this forum, and many others, but cannot find a solution. Maybe, and I hope, there is!

So after putting the lid down of my netbook, or putting it to sleep manually. I cannot see it woken up.

There is a black screen, no mouse cursor, but there is hdd movement. (the led is blinking).
Sometimes, after more than 5 minutes, the login screen appears again. (but that can be because I clicked something in the black screen.)

I've noticed that in many XFCE spins, there are problems with the bluetooth audio,  I ran across a fix BUT was wondering if it can be included in the next release, see below

Here goes:

1. Modify the file /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf file:

I have linux lite running perfectly on several laptops and desktops except for this one HP6715b with ati radeon x1250 graphics card. have done a lot of searching and it seems this laptop will only run with the 2.6.34 kernel. i have tried  to boot the 2.2 live cd and after the blue default screen boot i get a flashing black screen with a feather and loader at the bottom and it just flashes back and forth very quickly after about an hour i can see the loader bar is complete if i look fast enough between flashes but it never goes to the start up screen. it did once but after installing it reverted back to the problem above . if i use the nomodeset it just checks hardware for hours and then i get a blinking cursor  at the top left of a black screen.  I have since tried to install several different distros with no success. I am currently tring to use some old distros with the 2.6.34 kernel to see if that works. I would really like to use linux lite. and the new 2.4 beta is working well on the other laptop i put it on yesterday.

Every time I click on a link within the body of a Thunderbird email, Firefox opens to the homepage of steampowered.com.  I can't figure out why this is happening, and more important how I can get it to stop.  I just want to click on a link and have it work properly by going to the intended page; now I have to copy the link and paste it into a Firefox tab.  It seems that the smallest things are the most frustrating.  Can anyone help?

Lately I occasionally encounter system freeze-ups and the only solution is to power-off the PC (with the power button). Is there any log that can be used to pinpoint the source of the problem? After one of those freeze-ups I booted to another distro and looked through /var/log on LL partition but couldn't find anything unusual in any of the log files.

I suspect the freeze-ups might be related to my graphics card and for now I settled on the following setup, which is stable most of the time:
