I'm a new user of LL, coming from the Windows world. Although I've played with various flavors of Mint in the last few years, I'm trying to move to LL permanently. I'm having a problem on three different machines that's driving me nuts. No matter how many times I set Chromium (or Chrome) as "preferred," when I open the application, it tells me it's not the default. When I click on a hyperlink in an email, I get a box asking me to choose an application (and Chromium is never a "choice." Have seen this problem in Mint occasionally, is this a Linux thing, or is there a permanent fix? Thank you.

Hi,

I am new to LinuxLite and like what I see.

While configuring it to my liking I removed the default LibreOffice installation using 'apt-get purge libreoffice?' and then installed the latest version from the deb files.

Everything worked OK apart from being left with the New Document/Presentation/Spreadsheet entries in the Office menu which no longer work (the new LibreOffice 4.3 entries are fine).  The original menu entries are not shown in the Main Menu editor and I've looked in the xfce-applications menu files and cannot see how they get included.

How do I hide/remove these menu entries?

Wallpapers were created with Gimp using the following elements:

1. body_background_birds.png  (Pattern)
2. body_overlay_birds.png  (Layer)
3. Linux_Lite_feather.png  (Layer)

Linux_Lite_feather was scaled to 40% and colorified to #E2D4B1 (Parchment), #C0C0C0 (Grey) and #F8C5C5 (Light Coral).  body_overlay_birds was distributed 6 from top edge and -5 from right edge.

Below are the wallpapers in 4:3 and 16:9 formats (1024x768 / 1366x768):

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

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:

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

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

I want to delete "ampps" and "mysql" account at login menu. I've tried delete it from User Manager but there's only "audi" and "root" account.  :'(

Here's screenshots:

Hey People
I am just wondering how does one save the wallpapers from ....oh say LL 1.08 to use in LL 2.0

Any ideas?

Thanks. I just like some of the other wallpapers. Getting ready (Saving home folder etc....or backing up) to install LL 2.0 and just wanted to keep those other wallpapers.

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
