He only had two criticisms One that when you right click on desktop "Applications" was on the bottom. I think that is default Xfce. Second that for his personal use, it was too easy.

I can live with that. 

I regularly run Install Updates, I recently noticed that the script was saying 19 updates withheld. I noticed that the new Lite Cleaner was not being installed either.

Anyway I left it but recently had a major error with LibreOffice  when it refused to save any documents giving the error: libre office 4.2.6.2 write error error writing file. This was the same on all 3 profiles on the machine and I even removed all the libreoffice profiles and created new ones to see if this fixed it but it did not.

I tried the install updates but again  it said it was holding back the libreoffice updates (amongst others).

I then booted  up Synaptic which confirmed I had 19 updates of 340mb in size. I applied these updates which installed both lite cleaner and updated LibreOffice to version 4.3.2.2. I ran the lite cleaner after the updates and all is back to normal now where I have the ability to save LibreOffice files.

I was wondering why the install updates script was holding back these updates (which obviously were causing issues on this machine)

First of all it only seems right that I begin by saying thanks for what appears to be a wonderful distro so far, please keep up the good work.

I do however have the following problem that I hope somebody can help with:

When I run "Install additional software" and "NTFS configuration tool" both take around 3-5 minutes before they are visible and ready to use, during the wait the system is also very unresponsive. All the other programs I've tried seem to work perfectly.

Any ideas? Anything I can do to troubleshoot further?

PS: I just noticed it exhibits the same behavior when login out, in fact it consistently takes 2:37 secs. Shutting down from the terminal works fine.

One of the things had to give up when I replaced WinXP with LL was my membership to Audible.com (I like audiobooks) as their Download manager caters for Windows and Apple but not for Linux, however they do cater for downloads to Androids, which are, I am told,  Linux based.

I have been wondering if I can some how fool their system into thinking that LL is an android or maybe using Wine to fool it that I have a Windows OS?

If any of the above are likely, how would I do it?

Thanks

I'm new to Linux Lite, just installed it. working fine, but when you goto System>Addition Software>enter your password, and then enter any of the options (1 to 25) none of them wont install. Just an Error window comes up, it cannot be installed.  Additional Info: I'm using Dell Latitude D620 laptop.
Any Help with this is appreciated!

I do a weekly radio show. When I put my show together, I need to quickly search for songs I have on my various drives that I can use on my show. At the moment I am using Catfish. This option is not working for me because I need to take the search results and copy them to a folder. It seems that Catfish only allows you to right click on one song at a time and do a save as which is not what I need to do considering I may find hundreds of songs I need to put into a separate folder.

At the moment I have to do my searches on my iMac because as I type in the search criteria, the results are being displayed, and I can take the results and put them into a specific folder.

What are my options? I am using Linux Lite 2.0. Really appreciate all the help and suggestions.

First, sorry for all of the suggestions I just love LL

I seem to install Pinta each time I install any distro. It just comes second nature. In keeping with the Lite-ness, this application is there. It reminds me of the good old Paint Shop Pro days. Really easy to use, and the interface is not cluttered or separated into windows like Gimp (I always hated that). Just a simple paint and image manipulation tool that anyone can use...even if they have never used it before. Great for resizing images, adjusting images, and more. I cannot say enough good about this simple yet so very efficient application. It runs fast in LL, and I highly suggest anyone try it!

Tried and can not get rid of nouveau.
I've battled nouveau for several years.
The GUI tool seems to properly install all nvidia304 & components.
But nouveau will simply not remove itself. Several reboots and checks. grub updates etc.
I've purged nouveau but it is still there! wow

LL2.0

netflix installed but it also required wine so I did that,

netflix-desktop --showdebug

results in
wine: cannot find 'C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe'
do I need to make any links to wine profiles ?

My password for logging-on with LL2 is the same as the password requested by the default keyring, whenever I try to access the Wi-Fi
connection to the internet.  I don't think this is sensible, as anyone who successfully hacks the router password will presumably be able to access my root files. I am particularly keen to change this password, in view of the malware attack I suffered recently which I reported on 11 posts earlier in this same part of the forum

My question is therefore: how do I change the password for  the default keyring password in LL2?

Many thanks for any help with this.
Regards
Mike
