Last week, the Lite system updates included a kernel update to 6.8.60  Since that update, I have been unable to get Lite to recognize my sound card.  Specifically the headphone port where I plug in my speakers is no longer detected.  Looking at the sound mixer, all I have is Dummy Output as a sound device.

I can get sound if I plug in a USB headset, and I get sound remotely from the system if I connect to it via NoMachine, both are treated as separate sound devices from my sound card.

My system is multi-boot, and the headphone port does work when I am booted to Kubuntu, so this is not a hardware problem.

I have tried reinstalling pulseaudio, pipewire, and alsa.  I am not sure what else to try at this point and need advice.

Howdy fellow Lite users,
It's been a while since I've been on the forum and things sure have changed a lot.  I recently decided to revive my late wife's Samsung NP305V5A 15.6" Laptop from 2012 that hasn't been used for almost a decade.  It has a 1.8 gigahertz AMD processor with 4 gb of ram and a new Samsung 870 EVO 250 gb SSD, I thought I would try out a few distros before making a decision about what would be best, I downloaded Linux Mint XFCE newest version and tried it out and liked it a lot so I installed it and all went fine until the end and it wouldn't boot.  I tried several suggested tips and tricks but it wouldn't boot at all.  So I installed Lite 5.8 in the interim because I know it works on my old Presario without any problems and it loaded without any problems at all, so I decided to download Lite 7.4 and installed it and I ran into the same problem.  It wouldn't boot, I am not sure what the problem is, this laptop has legacy bios, meets more than the minimum requirements and the laptop is in good condition so what could be the problem?

Hi

Is it possible to boot Linux Lite to RAM?

Will it make any difference if my machine has 16 GB of RAM and a terabyte SSD?

Thanks
Bill

Hi

I have decided to handle Windows 10 not being supported by switching to Linux Lite.

I am disabled and spend most of my time lying on my bed and using my MacBook.

I have a main machine in my living area with Windows 10, but I want to migrate it to Linux Lite. It has a 3-GHz I7, 256 GB SSD, and a terabyte hard disk.

I live with my sister, who has no machine and uses a mobile. I am considering giving her my main machine and getting a notebook as my backup machine. I also plan to use Linux Lite on it. It will just be a backup machine.   It will probably come with Windows 11, so I may set it up as a dual boot.

For those interested, I am into mathematical physics, and if you are interested, I am a mentor on Physics Forums. I also have a computer science area.

I have over 30 years of experience as a computer programmer in the government, but I retired early due to ill health, so my knowledge is way out of date. I am happy to help if I can.

Thanks
Bill

Hallo, 

Ik heb in mijn Home een map X11 staan in de map bin. Als ik dubbelklik op deze map komt er nog een tevoorschijn met exact dezelfde bestanden als die in de eerste map staan... zijn er zo'n 2945 stuks... In de map X11 staat wederom een map X11 met wederom dezelfde 2945 bestanden... en dat gaat zo 39 keer door... Weet iemand misschien hoe ik hieraan kom en beter nog, hoe ik eraf kom? Mijn schijf in de laptop is maar 128 GB en daar zit ik zo doorheen als dit doorgaat...

B.v.d.


Andy
