I'm guessing, because the file start with the word 'From' the system assumes its an email mimetype and assigns it an envelope icon. I don't see this as an issue that needs fixing, albeit interesting :) Take out 'From' in the first line and its fine.

I did, and as soon as you save it the icon changes. Good to know not to start with From / in a text file. But you can type from / and notting happens.

found something strange. I created a new file, pasted the text into it and saved it. But then i saw that the icon had changed into an envelope. When i looked at the properties it says its a mailbox file. When i add .txt behind the name the icon changes to a normal txt file icon


What text did you paste into the file?


Just some plain text. Things that can be removed from a smartphones rom.
I added the file to my post..maybe its something in the text that creates the problem.


Below the text that is in the file.

Been trying out somethings. As soon as i start the text with From / the icon will change into an envelope after saving the file. No idea why that is.

32-bit for me, I've also pinched some drive space from my 2.8 install & installed 3.0 to the hard drive instead of running from a USB install.

Tried that red theme (mod of SCOUT039) and a few others Jerry, all the same with no minimise.
It appears what Mike mentioned previously is correct it's been changed in XFCE.
And his solution of clicking the file icon in the notification area effectively does the same job, it allows for showing/hiding of the progress box without being tied to the window's state.

Something else I noticed is when 2 or more windows & the progress box are up, clicking between the windows on the panel buttons changes the focus window and the progress box's colours change to 'background' but it stays in front & doesn't go behind the focused window like I guess it probably should.
The setting 'Always on Top' is useable on the progress box's panel button but has no effect either way.

Congrats to everyone involved! LL3 is another fine release.

One issue that I did run into was during installation. I left my laptop for a short time and when I came back the screen had gone black (screensaver?). After touching a key I was presented with the login screen. I didn't know the default live system credentials so I waited a bit until I was sure the installation was complete. Is there any way to disable to screensaver logout during installation?

32bit or 64bit?

32bit for me..
LL4.8 UEFI 64 bit ASUS E402W - AMD E2 (Quad) 1.5Ghz  - 4GB - AMD Mullins Radeon R2
LL5.8 UEFI 64 bit Test UEFI Kangaroo (Mobile Desktop) - Atom X5-Z8500 1.44Ghz - 2GB - Intel HD Graphics
LL4.8 64 bit HP 6005- AMD Phenom II X2 - 8GB - AMD/ATI RS880 (HD4200)
LL3.8 32 bit Dell Inspiron Mini - Atom N270 1.6Ghz - 1GB - Intel Mobile 945GSE Express  -- Shelved
BACK LL5.8 64 bit Dell Optiplex 160 (Thin) - Atom 230 1.6Ghz - 4GB-SiS 771/671 PCIE VGA - Print Server

I've seen your blank screen issue a couple of times, what I do now is when booted into the live media before starting the install process I go into the Power Manager settings, Security tab & change Automatically lock the session to Never.
It holds that setting until a shutdown/reboot etc. & the screen stays on if left unattended for a while.


Thanks, I'll apply that setting in LL 3.2 :)

Folks please remember when you are reporting issues to state whether its on 32bit or 64bit. I have 2 'Linux Lites'  to maintain and this would save me a lot of time. Some of you have already changed your Forum profile, so that does help. Thank you :)

Got a few things. I changed the language to Dutch. But in Menu the item My computer is still in English, so are the sub items under My Computer. And when i open my home folder and then theo i see the following. Some folders are in therre twice..with Dutch and English name. Not surte how to solve this..if it even is possible.


 


Reinstalled LL and then after setting Dutch as default language i didnt change the folder names, kept the old names. Now i dont have duplictate folders, no problem that they are in English.

But in LL 3.0 it's missing & the right click option to minimise from the panel button is greyed out.

This may have been a change in Xfce 4.12 which LL3 is now using. I believe you can hide the window by clicking on the folder icon in the notification area. Not sure why they hid the minimize button in the transfer dialog though...seems odd.

Thanks Mike, that allows me to do what I want, I like to see the progress with the windows being open but minimised at different times.

I've seen your blank screen issue a couple of times, what I do now is when booted into the live media before starting the install process I go into the Power Manager settings, Security tab & change Automatically lock the session to Never.

I think my first post above was a bit mealy-mouthed.
I was able to install LL 3.0 as a fresh install very rapidly and it worked out of the box.
Some previous problems with Broadband drivers and language support seem to have been ironed out and the only minor niggle is that I chose 'automatic login' but the password is still required.

I was able to add software including Slimjet and Google Earth as noted above, but this was greatly eased by the intelligent selection in Lite Software which together with that which is provided as basic gives the best offer of any distro.

I sorted my FF problem and I have a fully functioning crisp new system very quickly achieved
Thanks to the team again

Monkeyman,

My laptop doesn't have a physical number pad either, but it does have a virtual number pad.  By that I mean, some of the lettered keys become a number pad if I hold down the Fn key, like what's seen here.  In my example, keys for J, K, L, U, I, O, and P can also be keys for numbers when using the Fn key in the bottom left.  If you have something like this as well, when you try to enter letters that share a key with a number, that could affect the input of your password.
