  Linux Lite Terminal
Posted by: l3onidas - 06-07-2024, 01:21 PM - Forum: Desktop Customization - Replies (16)

After having installed Linux Lite 7 I found it - to be honest - quite annoying, that the desktop is not configured as in the Live System (after reboot it has a, to say the least, unpleasant appearance with two panels etc.). Why is that?

I managed to configure almost everything, the only question remains: How to get the "Linux Lite Terminal" exactly as it was in the Live System? Is there a configuration file somewhere? Now I have only the ordinary Xfce-Terminal. Not a big thing, but would be nice to have the Linux Lite appearance.

  USB drive partition not mounting @ connection
Posted by: H - 06-07-2024, 05:51 AM - Forum: Hard Drives and SSDs - Replies (12)

I have just installed LL 7.0. I have a USB drive, Seagate, that has 2 partitions on it. one is ext 4, the other NTFS.

When I plug the USB drive in, the ext 4 is recognized and is usable straight up. The NTFS partition is not.

The message for the error is
" wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, missing code page or helper program, or other error"

If I load disks and try and mount the partition there, I get the same error.

HOWEVER:
I am able to mount via the commend line.  ???
If i use sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/        . It will load and be usable.

The ownership of the drive is all.

Any advise / help would be greatly appreciated.

I am not a Linux expert, so please do keep it simple if you are able to help.

H.

  Mozilla Firefox Thunderbird from PPA fix
Posted by: Şerban S. - 06-06-2024, 10:14 AM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (5)

Installing Thunderbird from PPA


Snapd and Thunderbird removal

As you probably noticed, Thunderbird is available through a forced install of Snap (snapd service).
To get rid of this, open a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and copy/paste:

Code:
sudo remove snapd

This command, will trigger also the removal of Thunderbird. That is what I did.

Or:


Code:
sudo snap remove thunderbird

Installing Thunderbird from Mozilla PPA

Enter the following code into the Terminal:

Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/ppa
sudo apt update

Now, let’s prepare the installation of Thunderbird. Copy and Paste exactly the entire code from below:

Code:
echo '
Package: *
Pin: release o=LP-PPA-mozillateam
Pin-Priority: 1001

Package: thunderbird
Pin: version 2:1snap*
Pin-Priority: -1
' | sudo tee /etc/apt/preferences.d/thunderbird

To execute the code, you will be asked for the super password. Type it into the terminal.

Installing Thunderbird. Copy And Paste into the terminal:

Code:
sudo apt install thunderbird

In order to prevent a snap takeover of the upgrade, you need to Copy/Paste the following code into the Terminal:


Code:
echo 'Unattended-Upgrade::Allowed-Origins:: "LP-PPA-mozillateam:${distro_codename}";' | sudo tee /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/51unattended-upgrades-thunderbird

Terminal output of the above steps

  Linux Lite 7 Pretty as a picture.

First pictures of my newly configured Linux Lite 7 system. All is going well. New kernel seems faster and tracks my CPU advantages perfectly. This iteration is going to be enjoyable for me.

  Boot problems - have to use recovery mode every time
Posted by: 01pjf - 06-04-2024, 08:15 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (3)

Dear all,
I have a HP HP-Laptop-15-db0xxx which dual boots with windows 10 or Linux Lite 6.6
It defaults to Windows on boot.
I am running Linux-lite and Ununtu 5.15.0-107-generic
To get into Linux, I press esc, wait for the boot loader to pick it up, then F9 to go to the options menu.
I can chose windows, ubuntu or something else that I can't remember.
I chose Ubuntu, and then get an option to run 5.15.0-107, or its recovery mode, and an earlier package or its recovery mode.
The other package doesn't run, so I will delete it in tweaks.
If I boot straight into 5.15.0-107, it loads, but after I type in my password, the screen starts to flash and writhe, and is totally unreadable. After a while it goes dark, but the back light is still on. There is no sign of response to the mouse or the keyboard.
If I boot into 5.15.0-107 recovery mode, and change nothing, then exit recovery mode into Linux from that menu, everything works fine (although I do have to unplug my USB mouse and plug it in again or it doesn't see it.
I think the problem is the screen driver which loads after the password is entered. But I have no idea how to change it to the default one that I'm left with when I boot through recovery mode.
My explanation could be totally up the wrong path, so I would be very happy to hear from anyone who can help this. I'd like to default boot into LL, but I need to correct this error first.

lspci gives me (I hope its' helpful - this is the report after booting through recovery mode. I have no idea what driver is being used when it boots normally, as I can't see what's going on. Caps lock still works, so something is definitely happening; it's just that I can't see it.)
