| [SOLVED] Installing Lite 32 or 64 bit on ASUS UX21 Ultrabook |
|

I'm seriously considering installing Lite on my ASUS UX 21 Ultrabook, which has an i3 processor @ 1.40GHz, 64 GB SSD and 4 GB of RAM. So, obviously no problems there, however I'm undecided as to whether to try the 32 bit or 64 bit version of Lite. It presently has Windows 7 64 bit, but it's beginning to slow down and hang etc after 3 years. I'm no fan of Windows but I still have Windows 7 (dual boots with Ubuntu 14.10) on my desktop, so I'll still have access to it.
Can anybody offer an opinion on whether to go for 32 bit or 64 bit? I'm not a heavy user needing anything special, don't use the device for games - Lite has been a revelation for me after having installed the 32 bit version on friends' old laptops and seeing what it can do. However, do I stand to gain anything by installing the 64 bit version instead?
Thanks in advance.

| [SOLVED] Time/Date Setting ~ NTP |

Hi,
Thought I would set up one of my PC's with Date/Time synced to NTP Server.
So my internet connection is fine, and I can ping the ntp servers listed: http://www.pool.ntp.org/zone/uk
I add one of the ntp servers, it says "Checking" and it lists it... I can ping it...
But when I come to close the page, it errors out... UFW Firewall is in-active.
Any ideas..??
Thanks.

| Whisker menu reads Desktop files from /etc/skel/.local/share/applications |
|

The /etc/skel directory contains files and directories that are automatically copied over to a new user's Home directory when such user is created by the useradd program.
A home directory, also called a login directory, is the directory on LL that serves as the repository for a user's personal files, directories and programs, including personal configuration files.
Here is what happened: - I've opened two .desktop files, alacarte-made-8.desktop and alacarte-made-9.desktop, in /home/misko/.local/share/applications/ in order to change the default icons to the ones that a user submited in this thread
- Changed the lines Icon=... to
Code: Icon=/usr/share/pixmaps/enable.png
Code: Icon=/usr/share/pixmaps/disable.png
Code: dbus-send --print-reply --dest=org.xfce.Panel /org/xfce/Panel org.xfce.Panel.Terminate boolean:true
Nothing happened, and the icons should have changed.
I remember there was a couple threads where the users claimed they can't remove items from the whisker menu. This is related to that.
So something is wrong in the configuration, and that is this file /home/misko/.config/menus/xfce-applications.menu
Code: grep "/etc/skel" $HOME/.config/menus/xfce-applications.menu
<AppDir>/etc/skel/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/etc/skel/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/etc/skel/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/etc/skel/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/etc/skel/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/etc/skell/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/etc/skel/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/etc/skel/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/etc/skel/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
I've changed /etc/skel to /home/misko restarted the panel and this fixed the problem.
Next command will change all occurances of /etc/skel to /home/user_name
Code: sed -i 's!/etc/skel!'$HOME'!g' $HOME/.config/menus/xfce-applications.menu
Then all that should be done is to restart the panel.
Code: dbus-send --print-reply --dest=org.xfce.Panel /org/xfce/Panel org.xfce.Panel.Terminate boolean:true
Now the configuration is pointing to home/misko/.local/share/applications
Code: grep "/home" $HOME/.config/menus/xfce-applications.menu
<AppDir>/home/misko/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/home/misko/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/home/misko/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/home/misko/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/home/misko/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/home/misko/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/home/miskol/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/home/misko/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/home/misko/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/home/misko/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/home/misko/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
<AppDir>/home/misko/.local/share/applications</AppDir>
