  [Solved]PAE is disabled on this Pentium M
Posted by: Kalifornia - 10-31-2014, 03:30 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (8)

I'm trying to install LL from CD, but this PAE error comes up. I've looked online for information on it, but it goes over my noob head.

Can anyone help me figure out how to enable PAE? It says it's disabled by default. I'm installing it on a 2006 Dell Latitude 110L.

Thanks! If you need more info, I'll be glad to supply it.

Hi,

There is a current thread in Hardware on Mice... It reminded me.
I have a "cheap" Logitech M185 that I was having some issues with.

I came across the following which maybe of interest to Logitech owners.
(FYI, It works with my M185)

Tried to print off a form but the end result had approx. 30mm of the original document missing from the top with a corresponding blank section at the bottom, also 30mm.
Unable to find any settings on Linux Lite to adjust for this error.
Any suggestions?

  Help me understand the way linux install programs
Posted by: dodo - 10-29-2014, 10:31 AM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (3)

So i managed to uninstall old LibreOffice and installed new 4.3 following instructions on LibreOffice site.
I downloaded tar.gz file, extracted it into my "home" folder, inside it was another folder named "DEBS", i opened terminal there, run some commands and now i have LibreOffice 4.3 (which is great btw.)
-what bugs me is: "DEBS" folder is still there where i extracted it, what would happen if i deleted it?
i don't know if this folder is important because program is already installed?
Because if it isn't, i would gladly delete it to free 200 MB of disk space.

  Hi there ! Hola ! Bonjour !
Posted by: Kamyar - 10-28-2014, 09:03 PM - Forum: Introductions - Replies (6)

I read a nice article on LL on "Planete Linux" magazine and here I am.
I quickly adopted it since I immediately enjoyed it.

I migrated from Mint 17 that is a nice distro (it made me to abandon W******).
However with the recent versions it tends to become heavy.
Migrating to something too light but incomplete is not a good idea either.

So a BIG THANK YOU for LL which has found the right balance !

His video reviews of Linux Lite got me turned on to Linux Lite in January this year. Glad to see he still thinks highly of it.  8)

  Random computer reboot
Posted by: Monkeyman - 10-27-2014, 10:09 PM - Forum: Off Topic - Replies (21)

Putting this in the Off Topic section because I don't think it's LL related.  If it turns out to be, someone can move it.

I never turn my computer off (ever, other than a reboot once in a while).  In the past month or so, I've sat down at my desk only to find that, at some point, the computer's rebooted on it's own.  Unfortunately, when it does this, all I get are blank monitors.  The computer was (over) built my me about 3 years ago, it's as cool as it's going to get without water, the dust was blown out about 6 weeks ago and I only installed LL about the same time.  No issues when it's running and (so far) it's never happened while I've been sitting in front of it.

I've gotten the occasional Blue Screen of Death (on other computers) back when I was running Windows but there's just "nothing" there when this happens now.  It's like the monitors are turned off.  Memory is correctly seated (although I guess it "could" be dying) and there's nice cool air blowing out of all 3 exhaust fans.  If I hit the reset button on the computer case, she boots right back up (although a little slow).

What do ya'll think?  HDD?  RAM?  mobo?  Linux?

ASUS M4A89GTD PRO mobo
AMD Phenom II 965 Black Edition Deneb Quad-Core running at 3.4Ghz (not overclocked)
4GB (2 sticks) HyperX DDR3 1333 RAM
EVGA GeForce GTS 450
Corsair 650W PSU
all wrapped up in an Antec 1200 case

Everything but the PSU and case were new in '11.  The PSU and case were new in '09.  If there's a hardware issue, I don't mind replacing a part but I can't afford to build a new computer.  If it's Linux related, I don't mind reinstalling it other than losing all my Firefox/Thunderbird data.  I CAN'T lose some of that.  With nothing like Mozbackup to back that stuff up, I'm screwed.  (One of the reasons I haven't ditched Win7 on the laptop for LL.)

  defrag
Posted by: Alex - 10-26-2014, 07:13 PM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (11)

When XP used to slow down significantly, defragging the HD helped a lot. My computer is significantly slower now, I am wondering if I should be doing something similar to defragging?

If not, any ideas why it has slowed down?

Thanks

Alex
