  Trouble getting LL 2.2 installed on my Desktop (UEFI)
Posted by: micheldbruin - 12-06-2014, 11:28 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (6)

Hey there,

I would greatly appreciate some help with installing LL 2.2 on my desktop. Please excuse terms or language I use because I'm still a bit of a noob when it comes to Linux. Not completely noob since I have used Ubuntu and Mint for about half a year.

I created a boot usb stick with which I successfully installed LL2.2 on my laptop. No problems and it runs really well. I'm very happy with it. This morning I want to install it on my desktop as well, both are 64bit by the way, but I think the UEFI bios is causing troubles because all I usually get is a white screen with blinking cursor. Once I thought it started installing but then the screen went black.

Before I started installing I went into the bios and set everything to legacy (only), but it didn't had the effect I had hope for.

More info on my desktop:

  Minimal LL Wallpapers (several colors)
Posted by: Mike - 12-06-2014, 12:29 AM - Forum: Member Submitted Artwork - Replies (11)

Trying my hand at making some wallpapers. Played around with the feather a bit and thought it would look great with the diffused mountains in the background. Peaceful looking I think. Unfortunately, I can't take credit for the original mountain photo. I couldn't track down the creator using reverse image search so I'll call it fair game unless told otherwise.  Wink

I would like the folder names in Thuner too be in Danish. I know that I can right click on them and rename them. But there is a package I can install to get folder names in Danish

  Software suggestion - thumbnail preview
Posted by: valtam - 12-05-2014, 07:42 PM - Forum: Suggestions and Feedback - Replies (10)

I recommend installing tumbler-pluings-extra. This will show all document types, videos and images as thumbnails in your folders. This is something we'll be adding to LL 2.4 Please note that if you are memory conscious, there is a small impact there (applies only to very low end machines) LL 2.2 still boots to 178mb with this package installed so I'm happy to add it in a future build.

Code:
sudo apt-get install tumbler-plugins-extra

This is some artwork my son does while not at school. He gets images then puts layers on for a new look. The first one is an original given free on a forum he uses and the second is after using the effects. All black magic to me!
