Should have this strange device in within a day or 2 and will be attempting to put linux lite on it.

I'll let you know how it turns out or any questions as I am not a linux expert but can hobble around better in linux than I was last year

They do have an Ubunut image to put on it but rather put LL on it.

I bought the i7 model.

Hi

I am a recent Linux Lite 5.4 convert.

Previously successfully bypassed request: An application wants to create a new keyring called 'Default Keyring' even though I never set it nor did it accept my system password.  I thought that I had set up auto login but now I confirmed it via menu choice.

My question is where on the Lite menu do I access "Passwords and Keys" as you might in Ubuntu?  Is the only access via installing seahorse as I understand from the other forum links?

I ask because I may want to activate keyrings at a later time.  Thanks in advance for the help.

To whom it may concern,

Livepatch is not available on my system. It says "Gnome Online Accounts is required to enable Livepatch." How to I go about it?

To whom it may concern,

I am new to Linux Lite from Windows. Zoom requests the type of Linux (I select Other Linux OS since Linux Lite is not listed) and the version. The version options to select are gcc 4.7+ and gcc 4.6+. Which one do I select?

To whom it may concern,

I am new to Linux Lite, migrating from Windows. My Skype says I have to update it through my package manager. How do I got about it?

I just installed Linux Lite 5.4 on a HP Pro 3420 All-In-One PC.  The install went well with a normal display but it has horizontal white bars running up and down over the display.  I ran a update but no change.  I checked for third party drivers and none were found thinking another video driver is needed.  Any ideas for getting rid of these white bars?  thanks,

Hi all,

Next to my main desktop, I have a few laptops of Dell Latitude D620. Although they are all 64 bit, it is too heavy to run a 64 bit Linux distro on them, because they only have 1 GB of ram.

I know that the latest 32 bit version of Linux Lite is 3.8, but that has been discontinued since April 2021!

1. Are there any plans to resume the creation of a 32 bit version of Linux Lite?
2. If not: is it still recommendable to make use of LL 3.8 32 bit?
3. If not: what would be your suggestion to use instead?

Thanks in advance for answering!

I've been working with two different concurrent Operating Systems (Win8 and LL) for years now. Win8 was there for historic reasons.

I've tried MX-Linux in virtual machines and I wanted to make the full transition, as I understand that it doesn't use systemd.

What a disaster. The installer gave me an error that it couldn't install GRUB and, worse, left my system unable to boot.

Fortunately, I already had a bootable LL 5 USB, and installed from that. It gave me a message that a funny additional partition was required (which was easy to do) and everything then worked first time. So that's full marks and thanks to Jerry!

PS: MX-Linux has been top of the Distrowatch download charts for months, as people try to escape systemd. I can't help thinking that if LL were to remove it then LL would instantly become the most popular linux OS.

Hi all,

First, I'd like to thank the developers for this amazing distro!

To get to the point: on my x64 desktop with 8 GB ram, I try to install my printer: HP Laser 107w (or the HP Laser 103-107-108). I direct to the original ppd: HP_Laser_10x_Series.ppd, which works on any other Linux distro. Also I tried to install via cups: http://localhost:631/. But this didn't bring the solution either.

I tried to install via cups, via printmanager and cups, but following message appears: "Rendering completed." After executing the error trace modus, the system hangs.

In the website cups: http://localhost:631/, it says: stopped | "Filter failed".

Hope anyone has the solution!

Anybody else having a problem with the ads on the forum blocking what people are saying?

I get ads are needed to generate the revenue required to keep the sites up, but they won't close and they cover the threads.

Can I narrow the forum window size so I can read between the ads?
