As a recent Windows XP convert I started out with LL 1.08 (Dual Boot) and loved it. I have just installed LL 2.0 but when I click on the run Help Manual I get the following error message

Error when getting information for file 'usr/share/doc/xfce4-utils/html/c/index.html': No such file or directory

Could someone please advise me , in simple terms, how I can remedy this problem

  New Install Advice (update included)
Posted by: ChrisL - 09-26-2014, 11:54 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (5)

My "vehicle" is 32 bit Windows XP, Celeron 3.2?Ghz, 1G Ram, I think the kicker is the graphics card GeForce FX5200.  There seems to be some question if this card is compatible with the new release 2.0 LL or if I have to use an older release. 

So, that is question #1 I guess:

1) What release ... (would prefer the latest if it will support the drivers which are the nvidia 173.xx for this card)?
2) The manual suggests I get advice for the set-up I would like.  I have XP on one small (40G hard drive) which is good enough for what little I do on it, and would like to install Linux Lite on a second clean Hard Drive that is 120G, and would like to dual boot.  Best way to do so?

Your help is much appreciated.  Thank you.

Chris

  What media player do LL2-users use for downloading & playing podcasts?
Posted by: m654321 - 09-26-2014, 08:04 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (11)

As far as I'm aware I can't usethe VLC media player (that comes with the LL2 software bundle) for downloading & playing radio podcasts (or can I?).

I did some experimentation and found 'Clementine 123', which is v.popular, not to work very well with LL2 - the preset sound setting is too low.

What media player do forum members recommend for LL2? Any suggestions for LL2?

Regards
Mike

  Feather Splash Screen Missing
Posted by: sonic - 09-26-2014, 06:32 PM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - Replies (2)

I installed yesterday LL 2.0 32-bit at a TOSHIBA Laptop. Everything works except the boot splash screen, the one with the feather and the progress bar. After the first reboot it didn't changed, but when I shutdown it and power up, it's replaced by the Ubuntu 14.04 one with the dots. I didn't changed anything, I installed updates after the installation. Any idea?

Thanks in advance.

  Installing the Canon PIXMA MG2520
Posted by: loug28 - 09-26-2014, 05:50 PM - Forum: Printing and Scanning - Replies (16)

Hello all,

I need a little bit of help and advice. My mom recently bought a printer.  The Canon PIXMA MG2520. My googlefu skills haven't been the best, I admit, and I can't find anything related to this printer. It's an all-in-one printer so it also has a scanner/copier. I'm not too concerned about that.

I just need to get the printer working. So if anyone could help I would appreciate it.

  Hello!
Posted by: loug28 - 09-26-2014, 05:40 PM - Forum: Introductions - Replies (3)

Hello All,

My name is Lou Gagliardi and I am new to Linux Lite but far not used to Linux.

I was looking for a simple, easy to use and lightweight distro. I found it. I share a computer with my mother, so it was important for her to have ease of use--and Linux Lite is it.

I look forward to chatting with all of you and getting problems fixed and fixing problems.

  Cooling fan for Acer Aspire 3000
Posted by: ohjrson - 09-26-2014, 03:15 PM - Forum: Off Topic - Replies (6)

Hey
    I have this Acer Aspire 3000 that I have had for 5 years or more. It has an issue with the cooling fan. It is plain NOISY, Rattles and all kinds of stuff. It seems to cool ok but the fan is just crazy noisy. I have replaced the fan once already and that cost me a lot. Is there anything one can do to minimize the noise on this models fan? Anything would be helpful. I have another set of cooling fans underneath it that cost me 10 buck but even they are starting to make some noise.
Help!!

Ohjrson
