Hello,

on windows I would use videoGet to download a YouTube video, then use VLC to save the audio from that .flv video as MP3 file, hence I gave this overall process the nickname yTunes.

How do I best now achieve this task, do I need a replacement program to videoGet, maybe there is a yTunes like software for LL ?

I think my computer hard drive died. :'( It had been crashing. Sometimes it said it had overheated. I could shut it down for a while and usually have to unplug it. It did not come back up this last time. I tried reinstalling Linux Lite 2.0 from the DVD but it said there was no space on the  hard drive. I am taking it in to a computer repair shop tomorrow to be checked.

Anyway if it costs too much to fix, what would you recommend to replace it?

From reading http://www.cupoflinux.com/SBB/index.php/...538.0.html looks like an AMD would be the best way to go. I do not have the skill to build a computer so a ready made would be necessary. I think $500 or less would be a good price with shipping and/or tax. I would want a DVD drive. Can reuse monitor, etc.

Is it possible to create a favourite system for posts.

There is an  options to"Show unread posts "but once they have been read they get lost .

Quite often I read posts that I want to refer to again and have to search through different categories trying to remember were I read it .

I would like to be able to mark ones I am interested in and be able to "Show Marked Topics " and get my own list when I want to view one of them  .

Could the Forum  Search Box colours be changed to easy to read ones . Preferably to good old Black Font on a White background so people with sight problems can see what is written .
I may be old and therefore old fashioned but its another case of style over content that designers throw at us forgetting their users needs .

Hello,
I am a newbie to Linux.

Does the Install Updates feature in Linux Lite update "User" installed apps as well or just the ones in the Distro

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?
