  WPS Office suite

Using it now, seems to be easier for windows migrants. IMO. It is formerly known as Kingsoft . I am finding conflicting info on weather it is open source or not. Maybe someone can fill me in. I  also want to check out xfdashboard, a Gnome like super-key search

  [Solved] Strange title in Grub2
Posted by: gayle - 09-13-2014, 06:58 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (4)

I just did a clean install and I noticed something strange in Grub2. It says "Description:      Linux Lite 2.0" instead of just plain "Linux Lite 2.0". This is generated by the lsb_release -d command in /etc/default/grub:

Code:
gayle@lite:~$ lsb_release -d
Description:    Linux Lite 2.0

Is there any way to change this?

  Hello from Amsterdam
Posted by: gayle - 09-13-2014, 06:52 AM - Forum: Introductions - Replies (5)

Hi All,

Just wanted to introduce myself. I am a linux fan from Amsterdam and I have been using Ubuntu from way back in the good ol' days. But I just cannot get used to Unity, Gnome3 or KDE. Basically, I really love XFCE4! But even Xubuntu became more a nuisance than a joy.  I have tried other distro's like Arch, Manjaro, SuSE and Fedora but I guess I am just a debian kind-a-gal Smile

So I went looking for an alternative and stumbled upon Linux Lite, installed it and I am really liking it.

Gayle.

While watching YouTube vids i find that the Computer will suddenly go into hibernation avery about 15 minutes. I have played around with the power settings in GUi but no see-able change in behavior.

I suspect that i need some over-riding terminal commands...any suggestions?

Thanks

Alex

  Problem with clean install
Posted by: yourbestITguy - 09-10-2014, 07:05 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (4)

I burned the image to a disk about 6 times trying the 32 and 64 bit versions as an iso file to try to install it on another computer, my laptop. No matter what when I put it in the CD drive and try to boot up to install the OS it hangs on "Starting MS-DOS". I'd used the BurnAware Free program to make a bootable CD and it just had standard DOS commands including fdisk. I used the fsdisk to delete all the partions and created one partition but still to no avail. Any ideas how to fix so I can boot into Linux Lite to install it from the CD?
