  [SOLVED] How to install Adobe Flash in Linux Lite
Posted by: MooiFlieks.Com - 02-24-2015, 02:29 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (19)

Hello there! 

This is probably a hollowback question, but please note I am completely new to anything Linux and Linux Lite is my first experience with Linux so I don't really know how to do anything yet, so if you're going to respond, please assume I know only Windows 7 and nothing Linux orientated. 

When I first installed Linux Lite, adobe flash was installed automatically with it.  However, it seems something, i assume an update, changed it to showing in video windows "You need to update your flash player to view this video.  Download now from Adobe.com". 

So I downloaded some files from Adobe.com but have no idea what to do with it.  It's not quite like windows where there is some setup.exe file to click and everything happens automatically. 

In conclusion, my question is how to install Adobe Flash step by step in the ways of Linux.  I have searched for some answers but most answers assume I know what things are in Linux and how installing stuff works. 

Is there somewhere easy I can have things installed with one click?  I was thinking of an addon for Mozilla Firefox, but couldn't find any Adobe Flash addon.

  <SOLVED> Desktop Icon Position Rearranging on Reboot
Posted by: kjacobs - 02-24-2015, 06:45 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (3)

Hi all,

I just rebuilt/upgraded my Linux Lite system to LL 2.2 over the weekend. Everything is running wonderful.....except......every time I restart the system my desktop icons get jumbled up and rearranged. I found the auto arrange option, but there is no way to know if it is on or off. It seems to set itself automatically to on at restart. Is there any way to disable this "feature" so that my icons will stay put where I place them? ??? ? I like the idea of the auto arrange, but only when I want to use it.

Any help with this would be great.....thanks.

  [SOLVED] Key Binding
Posted by: Akinaro - 02-23-2015, 03:14 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (4)

Hi.

My backspace key on my keyboard is dead. Totally. I had problem with it before but after many quick fixes that I did to this key, now its dead.

Quote:RIP beloved backspace key



Before that, when it was still working I used xmodmap for binding other keys to different places.
But now, because its dead, I cant bind it to "delete" key(its near backspace and I dont use it anyway), because when you bind it, you need to press both keys to get their ID's...

So I'm screwed a bit... If you dont believe me, try not to use "backspace" for one day :]


Its damn hard to find keyboard for my netbook model, and those that I found have price made by some stoned junkies that have no idea what they selling, so I need to find way to bind backspace to different key on my keyboard.

Any idea how can I make it?
Maybe there is app/command that have universal ID's for every keys?

  [SOLVED] Signing PDF Document
Posted by: john9159 - 02-23-2015, 09:56 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (4)

I'm trying to impose a second signature from file onto a pdf document.
The first worked fine as Adobe allow this but the second required sending to a recipient for them to sign. No matter how we try, the second signature cannot be added.
I am now using GIMP Image Editor to do this and whilst it does work, the image cannot be scaled down to fit in the appropriate area, it always appears oversize and overlaps other areas of the form.
Has anyone any idea how to reduce the size of the image?
Thanks for your help.

The Abstract Wallpapers from the MATE 1.8 Desktop Environment

A small suggestion on what to do after downloading the images.
Since the images are semi transparent you can tweak the color or set the gradient.

Hello All,

As the subject indicates I am a newbie to Linux. I have tried a couple of other distros and must say LL is tops. Just love it and so easy to use.

Thank you.
