You now need to read the rules, especially the new rule #15 to ensure your music is allowed.
If you get this error when runing "install-updates"
synaptic: no process foundI'm sure it will be fixed soon but in the meantime you can open a terminal and run:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade~Scott

Let me start with i know next to nothing about linux systems.
computer, 2008? macbook with new 1TB hard drive and soon new logic board with 16GB ram.
I have installed wine, and I've installed or i think i have directx9c. click onlive to launch and get , Failed to create Direct3D. Please ensure that you are running Directx9.0c or later. (status code: a44a)
I know basically nothing about bash and the terminal. I have used it to install with, but only with a tutorial to follow.
I am having issues with my HP pavilion laptop that is running Linux Lite 2.0
When I close the laptop lid, the screen will hibernate. I don't want this.
I have changed actions that the laptop is supposed to do then the lid is closd in the settings GUI to ignore but the screen still goes black when the lid is closed.
From what I have read, I am supposed to do the following
1) open a terminal window
2) type " sudo leafpad /ect/system/logind.conf
3) find the line #HandleLidSwitch=(whatever value is in there now)
4) removed the # and change it to HandleLidSwitch=ignore
5) save the file and restart the computer
Does this sound correct?
I am very new to Linux and the command tool
I use the sudo Leafpad enrty because Linux Lite comes with Leafpad as the text editor correct? I woulkd use sudo gedit if gedit was installed on Linux lite 2.0 , but I don't think it is.
Any help would be appreciated
Hi folks,
I would like some volunteers to try this update script I have been working on and off for some months now.
This would require you to create this file first so that there is no interruption in the update process:
(source http://raphaelhertzog.com/2010/09/21/deb...d-by-dpkg/)
sudo leafpad /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/localDpkg::Options {
"--force-confdef";
"--force-confold";
}save and close.
Here is the script:
leafpad ~/updatestestcopy into the following, then save and close, and make executable:
#!/bin/bash

I recently installed linux lite. I went to change from the nouvea driver to the nvidia legacy updates driver, restarted my pc. I remember being prompted to have default xfce or something else and I think I clicked ok but can't remember. Then my whole xfce system went from the normal xfce setup that comes when you install linux lite to the default bad looking default xfce that is plain xfce. Does anyone know how I can change this back?
Thanks help is much appreciated.
This is what it looks like now:

What do you all think of this? http://fortune.com/2014/11/19/yahoo-to-r...ch-engine/
I would like to upgrade from my onboard graphics and really like the nvidia GTX 750ti cards. Are drivers, etc., available? Anyone running one now? I'm using Linux Lite 2.0 in a home-built system. Thanks!
Just installed LinuxLite last night working well except that I have to authenticate and connect every 5 minutes to stay on line...It is very annoying...I hope this is an easy fix..
Hi Folks, I've been contacted by Steve from XFCE as they would like to gather user experiences on Xfce's session saving feature and UI, and the XDG Autostart UI.
The 2 surveys can be found here:
Online survey on session saving: http://goo.gl/forms/3oYrPQNDEt
Online task on autostart app UI: http://goo.gl/forms/c7qYcIE0EQ
Please take a moment to fill out the survey. As you guys know, feedback is an essential part of how a project evolves. Thank you
