Me again.....I have noticed that it seems that syslog is missing on LL 2.2 and at least 2 machines built recently. My desktop has a syslog in the VAR/LOG/ folder, but it is empty and dated back in November of last year.
What happened to the logging that posts to syslog, as it is needed for some troubleshooting of other software? ???
Thanks,
Ken

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:
sudo leafpad /etc/bluetooth/audio.confEnter your password, then edit the appropriate area in the configuration file as follows:
[General]
Enable = Source,Sink,Headset,Gateway,Control,Media
Disable = Socket
HFP=false
[A2DP]
SBCSources=1
MPEG12Sources=0Reference Link 1: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sourc...ug/1181106 - post #15
NOTE: In the step above, if you use the info referred to in reference link #1, the 'pactl' commands will fail. Fret not, as it has no effect on the end result. What is important here are the changes to be made in the audio.conf file in the /etc/bluetooth folder to activate A2DP (stereo).
2. For the curious, the second reference link will explain to you why this fix is necessary in more detail:
Reference Link 2: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sourc...ug/1283003 - post #92
Solving this problem involves:
a. Adding a PPA, and
b. Updating blueman (the Bluetooth manager) and installing the modules that interface Bluetooth with pulseaudio.
c. For Broadcom Bluetooth adapters, downloading the firmware and copying it to the /lib/firmware folder.
First, add the PPA:

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?
