Hi;
Several times I read "Fewer PPA's'.
I have searched over half a dozen online Linux acronym directories to no avail.
Please somebody enlighten me: What is a PPA?
TIA Eike

Google 'What's a PPA' and you will get more info than I could quote here.

Was good to new users all in one place and lot work went into! including what shade of gray the left panel was.

(No, I will not post links)

No need I know how search box works on here.

Google Chrome dropped too only a problem with 32 not 64bit

Lite Control Center is not in Series 3 at this stage. If anyone else asks about it, please refer them to this post. If anything changes, I will inform the community.

Bit late but why was this dropped ?

Hi

have just installed 64 bit 3.0 

some minor issues for next release?

At shutdown screen you have a mainly yelllow splash with white font.....not easy to read please consider using black font so I can read the message that paraphrased was press enter after removing disc.

2)  the squashfs appears to have some errors in it.  My original download was from an aussie mirror then I dl from another country but in all cases the message screen shows



Maybe others can press the Escape key to booting up the live DVD to confirm?

Checking the install structure I can see the error

Code: [Select]

[email protected]:/home/gordon# cd /root/var/crash
bash: cd: /root/var/crash: No such file or directory
I have not checked for the other error for the openssl certificate. I will look at gpg later.

thanks for reading

Of course I am reporting the live RAM disc errors and they may not be important on the install HD system

How many years it will be supported ?

Theres no urgency for me to get into Snap packages. It's still too early and there are security concerns around this approach. I'll be watching closely.

File manager preferences on the advanced tab under Folder Permissions, the setting Apply to Folder and Contents doesn't seem to work.
Copy some folders with files inside from a cd or dvd, once copying has finished right click on one & go Properties > Permissions change all to Read and Write, click close, open the folder and the contents are still read-only & must also be changed manually.
The file manager preferences window cannot be minimised out of the way but is also tied to the window being shown or hidden, same behaviour as the copy files progress box.

Thanks Jerry,
Yeah I understand it's not an LL thing, just having a grizzle I guess 
I found that simple, user friendly function very useful when using a lot of media files, and I know others did too as I've been hearing a few opinions on it.
I've searched through all release notes I can find & didn't see anything of relevance though it might be named or referred to as something I don't understand.
It's possible there's some better future implimentation planned that those changes are required as a part of, time will tell I guess.

Any interface or interaction changes from 2.8 - 3.0 are not done by us unless we specify that in the Release Announcement. It's more than likely software that has not been coded by us eg. XFCE.
