I'm using an all-in-one printer scanner (MFC-9120CN) where the printer works but the scanner is not found by any scanning program. Even after installing the proper drivers from the Brother website. I had the problem with LL4 and LL5.

The problem is that the needed files are stored in /usr/lib64/sane and should be (also?) found in /usr/lib/sane. The solution is to create the directory and put a link for each file in /usr/lib64/sane in the new directory, like so (tested in LL5):

i am usin linux lite 4.8 but it takes too long to boot even after removing virtualbox. it takes around 3 mins

...and here we are again:

Have been happily using Amule for a few years on both W7 and Ubuntu 16.04LTS and am now trying to install it on LL5.0..... with almost the same issues as I had with Megasync, the difference that I can't seem to find a version that is compatible with Ubuntu 20.04. I've got as far as trying the one I found (amule_2.3.2-2_amd64.deb) which was described as being compatible with 18.04 and onward....but, nada.

Does any kind soul know of where I could get the right one for LL5.0?....or perhaps could advise me what I can do with another version to make it work?

hi every body i really need some help with this bug because it won't let install anything no matter what it won to install it just said the same. now I made it better, I just remove every driver  about androit and it made it  but leave this answer:

code=exited,
status=255/EXCEPTION)



muy buenas necesito ayuda por favor, resulta que tengo linux lite pero quiero flashear telefonos
:-\ como no soy diestro y ni siquiera programador (aunque entiendo varios terminos) se lo complicado que es el asunto de los drivers en android de hecho tengo un blu advance que está de darle por la jupa nada mas  8)
porque tengo la rom stock de dicho dispositivo, el punto es que soy novato en linux ubuntu aunque he visto lo mucho que ha progresado desde hace mucho sigue siendo tedioso y fustrante el intentar usar el sistema operativo para trabajar con telefonos
sin embargo me encontre la dream cast de linux  ;D me refiero a FWUL al ver que trae todo la puse en la pendrive  y listo booteo desde ahí pero todo se pierde y nunca me leyó el telefono el sp flash ni el simple adb pero fwul si lee el telefono.
al ver esto trate de installar todo en linux lite para no estar en esa vara de volver a instalar todo cada vez que quiera usar fwul.
lo hice empece una ardua instalacionde actualizaciones y cuando ya estaba cerca de acercarme. ta dán

no sé pero todo lo que quiero instalar ahora no me deja porque el bendito android-23 ya existe y traté con una sugerencia que parecia arreglarlo pero solo me desinstaló repositorios obsoletos entre otras cosas obsoletas lo cual está bien pero me tiró esto para rematar:

alguien sabe que está pasando porque yo no tengo la mas minima idea

Hello,

When I boot my laptop up without the charger plug in I get nothing but a black screen. But when I boot my laptop up with charger connected it boots fine.

Without the charger I can see the boot splash screen but guessing when it passes the boot splash screen it doesn’t take me to LightDM it just gives me a black screen.

Other distros it takes me to the login screen with or without the charger plugged in.

Here’s the computer specs:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3500U
GPU: AMD Vega
Ram: 16GB

Thank you

LL5 is excellent. I am having issues getting my head around EUFI but that is another matter. The following problem was, I am pretty sure, also present in LL4.

After having a problem with a machine "seizing up" if left on for several days I investigated and think there is a problem with the Lite Widget (or conky, which it uses) grabbing more and more memory over time. I have confirmed this using LL5.0 on several machines, with both Intel and AMD processors and from 2GB to 12GB RAM. Some were totally new installs. My tests use the following script:

Thank you for your response.
However I do not at present want to install LL but use the USB in Live mode with persistence on my old laptop whilst keeping all my apps and files intact.
Do I need to start a post in "Installing LL"?
As I said the usb live drive that I created boots fine but the purchased LL USB Persistent only shows as "Operation System not found"
I would be happy to create my own persistent USB live drive from Windows 10 if I could find directions for doing so, but it seems not to be possible at present.
I am sorry to have such a lack of knowledge but can you please point me to the correct place.
Regards
Bob Edwards

Hello,
I've came back to Linux Lite because I was missing how great it was on my computers. I'm having an issue with my new laptop that I use for college and personal uses. When I plug in the charger in my laptop it boots up just fine but when I unplug the laptop and turn it on I get a black screen. I've done an update and still no fixed.

Boot Process:HP logo Black scree Linux Lite boot screen Black screen
Boot Process on Charger:HP logo Black screen Linux Lite boot screen Black screen LightDM Desktop

I've tried other distros and never had this problem unless I had my monitor plugged in and installed it, but I had nothing plugged in except the USB drive.Here is the laptop specs:

Thank you

My first post and first day with LL5.0 and my only prior linux experience is as a humble user of Ubuntu 16.04LTS for a couple of years - so I hope that you'll forgive the stupidity of my questions:

I have tried to download 'megasync-xUbuntu_18.04_amd64.deb' which I think I have done correctly as it and the related Nautilus file show in my download folder. From that point I haven't been able to move forward. I have tried opening the main file with gdebi and all I get is"Error: Dependancy is not satisfiable:libraw16 (>= 0.16.0)."  Apart from that I see no logfile displayed and wouldn't know where to look.

I have looked at the ubuntu forum and have found several (sometimes conflicting)  methods to try and solve this from the command line but I'd be grateful if someone might direct me as which ones I should be trying in which order.

MTIA

Just like a couple other linux distros or windows does.  And/or how many computers I install it on.

Right now I have LL 5 on my work laptop and work desktop.  But also when I sell clients used computers with it installed I would also like to send you money too.

Any time you come out with a new version I would like to pay you for your hard work.

Jerry, you are doing a fantastic job!

I don't expect any support but you always help out when needed on the forum.  Even my stupid questions.  You rock!
