On the Xfce Desktop  PANEL" there an Option to Add a BRIGHTNESS PLUGIN . It works as expected except the SLIDER does not change the brightness. There are Brightness Function Keys on the keyboard that can move the slider display but have no effect on brightness .

Has anyone had the same problem or it would be useful to know if you can control the brightness on yours OK.

My PC is a Samsung NC 110 Netbook with an Integrated Intel Video Chip

After doing a new install on Linux Lite, and setting up a username and password, when it starts up I entered my password which was accepted. However, when trying to do anything once logged in that requires my password, the password is rejected, even though I have not changed it.

So why is this?

I read about Linux Lite in a magazine and decided to try it. I downloaded the 32-bit ISO file and installed it in Virtual Box which all worked very well.
I was looking for a new distro for my Asus EeePC which is a few years old now, but works well. It was running another distro which was getting outdated.
I put Linux Lite 2.0 onto a USB drive using Unetbootin and booted the EeePC from the USB drive.
It booted into live mode with no problems, and I set about doing an install, just the same as I had done previously on my desktop PC in Virtual Box.
It allowed me to choose partitions for / and /home okay, and I chose to encrypt my home folder, and started to install. But when it got as far as Creating User, it just freezes. I tried restarting the install and got the same result.
When I clicked on the "Creating User..." text it gave some CLI output text, the last bit is as follows:

Quote:GLib.source_remove(self.keyboard_layout_timeout_id)
/usr/lib/ubiquity/plugins/ubi-console-setup.py:74: Warning: Source ID 3281 was not found when attempting to remove it

Wanted to say after just a few hours trying out LL2 I was pleasantly surprised when I was able to browse to my NAS (it showed in Workgroup) and was able to instantly gain access ... something I had no luck with with LL1x

Hi,

This is a new thread from:

Using the following in fstab which maps to folder in Home allows access to NAS share, but owner is now root, and therefore Read Only for me:

Since installing Linux lite the numeric pad has acted only as a mouse pointer. I have a HP keyboard on my Dell 4550, but the HP keyboard model number: KB-0630 is not listed the Settings/Keyboard/Keyboard model. It makes no difference if the Number Lock is on or off the number pad will not type a number, it will only use the arrow keys to move the cursor. Please help me to find the settings to change my numeric pad into a true numeric pad.

Is it possible to set Preferred application - Email Reader to Web based Email client -- Gmail or Yahoo etc

Hello All,

Just curious if it's possible to remove the shading of the name text of everything on the desktop unless it's selected?
And if it's possible to not use the grid for icon alignment but put them where I want?

Using LL 2.0 with PCManFM 1.2.0 instead of Thunar.

I do apologise if this has been covered on the forum, I can't find it if it has.

Thanks 

I'm using LL2 day2day now and I'm very happy with it.  8)
But tiny question: why do after boot some icons on the desktop jump to left upper?
Or: can I do something to prevend it?
