After updating today which included an update to Lite Teaks shows 8.9 MB (correction on size) of package cache still to be removed after running command. This happened before in In Lite Cleaner but was fixed. http:/www.linuxliteos.com/forums/index.php?topic=977.msg5797#msg5797 (Did not find post where it had been fixed before.)

I think a Gui based man page browser would help a lot of former windows users get used to using linux.
It seems to be hard to find a man page for a particular function if you don't know the name to look for.
A browser that lists bash commands and installed man pages would be very helpful. At least in my opinion.

In my opinion  LL is lacking a photo organizer/manager such as gThumb,Shotwell or similar.
This could be part of the main menu or at least part of the "install additional software"

This would be useful for users migrating from windows. As most must have a shed load of digital images.

My preference is gThumb.

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.

Just made my d-u & saw this update .

I am an Xfce lover so this is very, very welcome news Ikey getting xfce ported to GTK3 even though he's got his own Budgie desktop and he's rewritting his base.
Love the man!!

      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
  

• Restarted the panel
  

There are too many threads these days that are straying way off topic. As an example, if someone starts a thread asking for help on 'Printers' please resist the temptation to start talking about 'Volume Control' or your favorite cheese. This especially confuses new people to linux who are looking for brevity and good clear instructions.

In the future unrelated posts will simply be deleted without notice.

Thank you

Hi, I'm a Linux Lite 1.0.2 user that has it installed on an old Compaq Armada e500 laptop. It is great for an antique like that, but now that I want to upgrade it to the latest version I see that it only fits on usb drives. As being a lite Linux distribution I always thought it would be kept lightweight. The thing is my laptop can't boot from usb and although it's fixable using Plop, that unique usb port is broken. Now I've installed a pcmcia usb expansion card, but this would not boot from that nor would it from Plop. So my last chance is to boot from a cd. Is there a way to shrink it down?
