Hi from Western Kentucky.
I installed Linux Lite 1.0.8 on 3 AMD based machines. It works great on the one with a Sempron processor and appears to work well on the other two with Athlon XP 2400 processors with the exception of Youtube. The website comes up, but when a video is clicked, it never loads and htop indicates 100% CPU usage with Firefox being the worst offender. Flash is installed on all three. Am I missing something obvious or is it likely to not work ?
Thanks in advance. I look forward to reviving other old machines with this OS.
-Scott

Linux Novice!
How can I identify what version of Linux Lite I have installed?
I have tried many of the commands on other Linux forums, but the results are always about Ubuntu.
Is there a way to tell if I am using Linux Lite 1.0.6 or 1.0.8?

Hi,
I have just had my 1st instance of "Update Manager" offering 5 Security Updates
1 X Header Files
2 files for Linux Kernel Header & Image 3.8.0.38
2 files for Generic Headers Kernel Headers & Image
I assume this is normal and can accept.?
Thanks... David

| New to Linux and Lite - need to overcome install Issues |

after several tries I settled to run Linux Lite (LL) out of a boot CD. originally tried to install along side Windows 7 but failed. On the second boot I settled for running out of the boot disk and saw a few things I'd like to know if and/or how they are fixable.
Issues I'd like to learn to fix:
1. The LL tabletop is smaller than my monitor screen (monitor is 24", Tabletop 21")
2. Twice, when I shutdown it hangs.... and I am forced to do a forced shutdown
3. I am a Trader and use 4 monitors out of 2 graphic cards - LL repeats the same screen in 2 monitors.
4. Ultimately, I'd like too be able to install LL along side Windows (until I am confident of my ability)
5. I would like LL to operate out of (my current) C: drive and store all Data in E: drive
My System Hardware-wise is:
Z87 Deluxe Motherboard, 1707 Firmware (USB 3.0 able)
Intel i7-4770K CPU @ 3.5 GHz
16.0 GB RAM
2 NVIDIA GeForce GT 630 Graphics
4 Monitors (2 LG 21", 2 Dell 24")
One Intel SSD 520 Series 240 GB where the OS and Programs reside
One Seagate 1TB 3.5" SATA 7200 RPM HDD for Data (it contains all Documents, Pictures, Music, an Videos)
Thank you for Linux Lite.

Hello everyone!
I've been using linux lite for about around 9 months now, and so far haven't really had any problems so far. I've just installed lmms, and have noticed that even with my headphones plugged in the sound continues to play through the speakers. Does anyone know how I can fix this?
Thanks in advance!

| How to disable/turn-off "zram" |
|

Hi All,
Hoping this is the right section for this.?
I'm trying to find out how and where to disable "zram"
I have the following in dmesg.log file Code: zram: module is from the staging directory, the quality is unknown, you have been warned.
Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint
zram: num_devices not specified. Using default: 1
zram: Creating 1 devices ...
udevd[115]: starting version 175
Adding 7946824k swap on /dev/zram0. Priority:100 extents:1 across:7946824k SS
From what I have been able to deduce, it was included from 12.04LTS onwards.
By default it allocates 50% of available ram to a Ram Swap device, here is what I have:
Code: wirezfree@asus-lili:~$ sudo blkid
[sudo] password for wirezfree:
/dev/zram0: UUID="ccba7a93-559d-4a53-99ae-8ad8cb2865e7" TYPE="swap"
/dev/sda1: LABEL="root" UUID="a1c54d22-71f7-442f-9637-61a1db3550a9" TYPE="ext4"
/dev/sda2: UUID="a94d69e0-65a6-4970-9008-e8096b885bac" TYPE="swap"
/dev/sdb1: LABEL="home" UUID="f3f71049-bef3-45d6-8140-e0b838ba6e89" TYPE="ext4"
/dev/sdb2: LABEL="myfiles" UUID="076d5297-3f91-49a1-bb56-e3c43aef6a60" TYPE="ext4"
/dev/sdb3: LABEL="winlin" UUID="791816BE35757417" TYPE="ntfs"
/dev/sdb4: LABEL="myvms" UUID="11b60602-5871-423e-a796-d5e615759d42" TYPE="ext4"
Code: wirezfree@asus-lili:~$ cat /proc/swaps
Filename Type Size Used Priority
/dev/zram0 partition 7946824 0 100
/dev/sda2 partition 17612796 0 -1
wirezfree@asus-lili:~$
There is an additional configuration option available:Code: sudo apt-get install zram-config
However it got a bug...
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sourc...bug/996535
and it fails, and produces this in dmesg.log
Code: zram: module is from the staging directory, the quality is unknown, you have been warned.
Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint
zram: num_devices not specified. Using default: 1
zram: Creating 1 devices ...
udevd[115]: starting version 175
Adding 7946824k swap on /dev/zram0. Priority:100 extents:1 across:7946824k SS
Cannot change disksize for initialized device
init: zram-config pre-start process (1146) terminated with status 1
I have un-installed the "zram-config", and I'm back to the original situation
To verify that it's not a "fixed" feature I checked on another Ubuntu based distro on my Laptop, Zorin.Code: wirezfree@zorin-hp:~$ sudo blkid
[sudo] password for wirezfree:
/dev/sda1: UUID="a179c840-1bde-48c9-b11e-11a080929c55" TYPE="ext4"
/dev/sda2: UUID="76478879-9d5e-4194-999b-4f3162cd4a5d" TYPE="swap"
/dev/sda3: UUID="5e5fc6c6-fd93-4aa9-9f13-3ad2986bd892" TYPE="ext4"
Code: wirezfree@zorin-hp:~$ cat /proc/swaps
Filename Type Size Used Priority
/dev/sda2 partition 15722492 0 -1
wirezfree@zorin-hp:~$
There is no base "zram" devices enabled, and no "zram" entries showing in dmesg.log
So how can I turn off the base "zram" configuration in LinuxLite..??
Many Thanks... David

Hi!
I use to test Live distros on USB stick. on the last distro I used, there was a small prog called Boot Stick ('bootstick' is the name of the pack). But it is not in the LL's repo. 'bootstick' is a fork of the Canonical's usb-imagewriter project. how can I install it on LL?
Thank you and sorry for my english!

| Error Logs Entries - Should I be concerned..? |

Hi All,
I have a number of entries in the dmesg.log file, they may or may not be of concern.
I see many times on forums the comment "If it's working don't concern yourself, or worry"...
"I may have a small oil leak on my car that I don't notice, everything seems O.K... Until my engine seizes up"
So whilst everything "seems" to be O.K, when I see "Kernel Taint", "Bailing" and "Warning" it does concern me.
I really like LinuxLite, so much so that I wiped, rather than Dual Boot my main PC, I wanted a clean install.
I have extensively Googled them,
Some are possible known bugs, some confusing/cryptic, it's just not clear to me, probably due to my like of knowledge.
So should I post them..??,
I have posted one, "Intel Microcode", along with an update,
I think it maybe half fixed.. in that the code seems to be updated, but the old code appears to still load?
Thanks... David
ps...
Not sure where this topic sits, but as I observed them whilst I'm at the install of just LinuxLite it'sself, no other apps installed yet, I put it here.
((I have an idea for LinuxLite to stand out from the crowd here, and benefit the LinuxLite developers and help in user adoption/confidence, but that is another post))

Tried to burn and read CD but Xfburn says the drive is empty with CD in it. DVD burn/read works. Called shop where I bought burner. Told a driver(s) problem. Told to check in config files to see if there is a line with a question mark. Don't know how to find. Also told just do a Google search for the drivers and download and install. Did but was unsure which site would be save to use and Firefox wanted to open with CD burner.
Help!
