ChaletOS seems to me to be a pretty face on Xubuntu with a few different and/or extra apps without all the extra great Linux Lite features. I may be paranoid but I don't think I would want WPS office on my computer since it is from Communist China.

Main problem I see is that it has no users' forum and neither does Xubuntu other than just the Ubuntu forum* I think you might get loss in the Ubuntu forum.It also probably has same bugs as Xubuntu 14.04 that reviewers have pointed out.

If you want the icons and/or themes for the Windows look on Linux Lite, the developer was nice enough to put hem on his home page. http://sites.google.com/site/chaletoslinux/theme-sources

*Another great reason to use Linux Lite is this great forum!

on my dell inspiron 6400 the default wifi card thing does not work but when i plug in a wifi usb it works fine can anyone help plz

I created a USB drive copy of linux-lite-1.0.0-beta2-nonpae.iso and successfully booted from it on a Dell Latitude D600 laptop. It was able to detect and connect to my WiFi. I installed it to the hard disk and booted from the disk and was able to detect and connect to WiFi. I upgraded using the option in the standard menu, and selected the default options when given a choice - that is, keep locally modified config rather than overwrite with maintainer's new version. When I rebooted, wicd could not detect any networks. I repeated the whole process, with the same result.

I have attached a txt version of the hardcopy report for the machine; the Loaded Modules section includes

b43 Broadcom B43 wireless driver

and the PCI Cards section included

Network controller Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11a/b/g (rev 03)

I can if necessary connect the laptop to the router with ethernet cable.

Many thanks to anyone who can help

I have a Nokia mobile and have not been able to download the pics in it since changing to LL. So to day i searched for a Linux alternative to the Win PC suite and came up with this link:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/nokuntu/...p_redirect

After downloading i get this error message:



from the comments i thought that I might need nautilus, so I downloaded it from the synaptic, even restarted my computer (just in case).

But the error message was the same.Looking at the reviews it seems that mst people are using it with some success...any ideas what i am doing wrong?

Thanks 

Hey guys! I have recently installed Linux Lite 3.2 on dell latitude E6410 laptop. I'm trying to stream to twitch.tv and i have heard screen studio is the closest application to getting the job done. I have installed the latest version of libav-tools. When I try to add the repository it says it goes through here:

When i want to copy some files to a usb stick then i got some problems. The copy starts and after 8-10 seconds it stops for 20-25 seconds and then starts again and stops again after 8-10 seconds and so on and on and on untill the file is copied. During the time it stops notting happens, no data seems to be written. Its also very slow, speed is between 600kb and 1,5mb


I have it with all the sticks i have..they are all usb 2.0 and are 4, 32 and 64gb in size. The 4 and 32 are fat32 and the 64GB is ext4 formatted.


Is there anything i can do about it?

Hi,

I have just installed LL 2.2 on a new Intel based mini PC.
I have it connected directly to a monitor(input #2) via HDMI
The monitors got 2 HDMI inputs, input #1 is my main PC.

If I use the the monitors "switch source input" I can switch between the 2 PC's,
However If I switch from the "New" PC to the other PC and back I loose the
"New PC's" Desktop, I go back and it's black.
If I do a crt alt f3, I can get a system prompt and do a restart of the Desktop.

The other PC is fine, I can go back to that and it's fine, that is running LL 2.0

So the new PC does not like having it's HDMI output switched.

It's not screensaver/display settings in LL 2.2,
I can leave the New PC connected to display for periods of time, screen goes blank
move mouse, tap keyboard and it's back.

Any ideas welcome. (inxi -F below)

Thanks... Dave

users with LL2.0 are being blocked from  upgrading due to broken repos.
I suggest having links for 2.0 users facing this issue

Hay there folks really liking your OS its brough back an old laptop i had to life
keep up the great work..

I use this os on lappy but debian on main pc has anyone tried making a pure debian base of this system

Hello all, I hope this is in the right section.

I'm currently running LL 2.2 on a 8gb usb pen, and in an effort to save some space; I have installed a large app (TTS Voice) to an SD Card. When I come out of standby, I am asked for admin password to allow the SD Card to remount. Removing and re-inserting the SD Card automatically remounts it without a password.

I've unsure if this behavior is normal or due to having the app installed on the SD Card and causing the remount request.

Can someone suggest a way for the SD Card to be automatically remounted when coming out of standby mode?
