Hey Everyone,

So my Linux Lite (which I love) came with LibreOffice. It works fine for me, but I am currently applying for jobs online, and I want to make sure that people can see my resumes and cover letters. How can I write in LibreOffice and be certain that it will open on their end when they use MS Office? Do I have to save it a certain way or something?

Thanks!

Hi

On one of our LL computers. Everytime i click on a link in a email it starts a page about steam, were can i remowe this?

Solitaire is my favorite game, but the ugly card theme that is set as the default in Aisleriot cannot be changed within the program itself. There's a simple solution. Open the Terminal and type:
"sudo apt-get install gnome-cards-data" 

Just wanted to say hello to the forum. I'm not new to open source software, but definitely a greenhorn when it comes to any OS outside of Windows. I have an old XP machine I'm trying to revive with Linux Lite. After a few tries I finally managed to burn a live cd, but the desktop will only partially appear unless I boot into safe graphical mode. So I guess I have to start off with a newbie question...it runs great off the cd in sgm, but does that mean my graphics chip is not sufficient to run Linux Lite normally? I really want to get this installed on my machine, but I want to make sure it's going to be usable after installation. I was wondering if perhaps there's a driver configuration that can be done that will make it work? Any help would be appreciated. I'm really anxious after taking the tour, to get this thing goin. Thanks!

I have been running Deluge for some time with no problems. Now I keep getting a segmentation fault and the program crashes. Qbittorrent had this problem from the first time I attempted to use it.

In doing a little research, I came across the suggestion that upgrading libtorrent from .15 to .16 might solve the problem.
First, is it likely to actually solve the problem and second, is it likely to cause any other problems if I upgrade it?

Thanks!

Hi All,
I have and Admin account created and a user account.
How do I get the user account to auto-login?
We need this setup that way so we are not giving out the password.

Hello, All!

I saw this in my mailbox to day from Linux Forums, so I thought I'd share it with the community. Here's the link:

Capagot's Question, in a nutshell:

- snip -

Is anyone aware about a Linux version tailored for gaming? I mean... I know that games developed for Linux can run on almost any standard Linux distribution. However, my question is about the existence of a stripped out Linux version, where all stuff that is nor relevant for gaming was removed. I know that such a Linux version would never be as thin as the OS that is found on a actual game console. However, I am quite sure that a lot of stuff could be removed from within Linux, reducing its latency, while still keeping it as general as possible to be run on, at least, pop processors such as AMD and Intel's.

I think that it would be a great project/initiative if it does not exist yet.

I made a quick search on the internet about that, but could not find anything.
Do you know if is there such a Linux version, or an ongoing project on this line?

Here's Zenwalker's Answer:

LinuxLite is most likely about as close to what is described as is available just now.
Or one could install a Base version and install Wine and such oneself. The option is available if the willingness to do a little work is there.

Just thought I'd pass this along. This is probably outside the scope of the goals for the development team at the present time, but it's something that, as Linux Lite grows and matures, perhaps should be considered as a possibility, as Puppy installs can be quite a challenge...

First off let me say that, after hopping for the last 10 years, Lite has become my favorite distro for it's ease of use and simplistic beauty. I still run Puppy  though on occasion for sentimental reasons..(lol).
I am having an issue trying to stream videos from my ftp server ( Mac  OSX 10.5.8 ) on my Dell Inspiron Netbook running Linux Lite 1.0.6 32bit.
I have no problem streaming on my android devices but when I access the files in Lite, gnome player gives me this error message '' Couldn't open DVD device: /dev/dvd (No such file or directory)''.
VLC was suggested at one point on the Ubuntu forums but I had no success and it started looping and freezing my system. I could always download the files on the desktop with Filezilla and play them but that sort of defeats the purpose. A root file manager like Commander, A powerfull FTP client maybe...All suggestions are welcomed..THX.

board:Intel® Server Board S1200V3RPL

processor: Intel® Xeon® Processor E3-1275 v3 (8M Cache, 3.50 GHz)

board is the standard Xeon type for a normal computer case and it has a built in vga graphics port
processor is the standard Xeon that has built in intel HD4600 graphics

The intel board was more expensive than some of the other boards. I didn't want any compatibility issues for this because of this being my first linux build so i paid the extra for both intel brand. Spatry's cup of linux review was great on linux lite, he said his 70 year old mother uses it and how user friendly it is. My experience with it is great so far however it doesn't seem to figure out my on board graphics. I click system>system information>display and it says

My computer shut down abruptly due to a power outage and I cannot get it to re- boot . The screen comes up in terminal mode and displays the following message: Linux Lite 1.0.8 LTS ochilds-Dimension-4300 tty1 and then ask for login. When I put in the proper login info, it displays the message login incorrect. Can anyone help?
