Hi
my first time posting
so this is what i have observed
in the first hr of use, i have plugged in and out multiple HDD/thumbdrives (by the normal mounting + unmounting rituals).
then i noticed 1 of the 2 HDD disappeared from the thunar left hand panel
i didnt think it is a biggie maybe a loose port?
after i rebooted, the 2 HDD n 2 other thumbdrives are there as usual
then after i added the 2 HDD to places as shortcut, they both disappeared
under media/user folder the 2 drives are still present
so it is still in "system" and not "undocked"
i could add remove it as shortcut, but it no longer appears as a "drive" (disappears from devices)
it appears as 2 drives when i freshly reboot the system.
the 2 thumbdrives appear as "xxxx-xxxx" labels in the media/user folder
i was wondering, does it have anything to do with me renaming the drives as "10000" and "22222"?
(*edit : most * = latest comment)
****** i use filefreesync and it sees the 2 HDD, and could sync the files between it.
******* aha, so i close all the thunar instances and reopen a fresh 1, the 2 HDD reappears under devices. but the 2 no longer have the "undock" button which it used to have. the thumbdrives still have the "undock" button.
does this count as a bug?
cheers
**and btw guys, great job with linux lite.
***i just need a net monitor and a cpu temp in the panel now.
**** and virtualbox works great ! faster than mint i would say.

I have a new Linux Lite installation on an old Dell desktop computer.
I bought a WiFi dongle that appears to be meant for Windows and Mac.
Is there drivers available for using a generic USB WiFi dongle for this operating system?
I will attach a copy of the terminal result from inxi -FN
I could not find a button to select Code: like I can in Linux Mint.
Apologies for the that.
Any assistance will be most welcome.
Jim.

| Error Installing qemu-guest-agent in KVM guest |
|

Dear All
Following was error message:
sudo systemctl enable qemu-guest-agent
Synchronizing state of qemu-guest-agent.service with SysV service script with /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install.
Executing: /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install enable qemu-guest-agent
The unit files have no installation config (WantedBy=, RequiredBy=, Also=,
Alias= settings in the [Install] section, and DefaultInstance= for template
units). This means they are not meant to be enabled using systemctl.
Possible reasons for having this kind of units are:
• A unit may be statically enabled by being symlinked from another unit's
.wants/ or .requires/ directory.
• A unit's purpose may be to act as a helper for some other unit which has
a requirement dependency on it.
• A unit may be started when needed via activation (socket, path, timer,
D-Bus, udev, scripted systemctl call, ...).
• In case of template units, the unit is meant to be enabled with some
instance name specified.
Any workaround?

Hello!
Please be gentle, it is my first time :002:
Tidying up the garage came across this forgotten notebook: Intel Atom, W7 Starter... the lot. I have not used it since 2017 if I remember correctly, and trying to update it gave me this error:
============ Log ===========
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend. It is held by process 4663 (apt-get)
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), is another process using it?
This was meant to be my introduction to the amazing world of Linux, but a man must admit his limitations. Any help is welcome, thanks.

I have just loaded an older computer with Linux Lite. As a long term user of Linux Mint, and a reluctant occasional user of Microsoft Windoze 7 &10, I must say I am greatly impressed.
Well done to the developers; I will make a donation this morning.
I specifically like the ordered arrangement of the desktop and the ease of finding anything needed, very quickly.
This is in contrast with the incredibly untidy Win10 which I inherited on a old machine. I had a frustrating time trying to find my way around it. And I stress the "trying" bit!
Thanks to the developers. I will install this on my second home desktop as well.
Jim.
