  Where to get Tux keyboard stickers ?
Posted by: Jean-Marc B - 07-02-2023, 11:33 PM - Forum: Off Topic - No Replies

Hi folks !

From the title of this post, you've guessed I want to mask the 'ugly win key' on my computer. In fact, on several.

Just one problem, the only place where I can find those Tux keyboard stickers if Fleabay and shipping costs just make the deal plain silly.

Searching the web didn't help either.

Any idea anybody ?

To be precise, I'm located in France, so somewhere in the EU or on the old continent, would be more convenient than down under or on any side of the globe.

Thanks.

  Public channel for LL updates
Posted by: arliccio - 07-01-2023, 03:15 PM - Forum: Suggestions and Feedback - Replies (1)

Hi there ! First of all, I am not a english-speaker, then sorry for any language mistake.

Yesterday the Elon Musk's Twitter blocked the visit WITHOUT register of profiles and posts from the site  through the official channel (twitter.com) or third-party apps and sites (like Twidere or Nitter, the front-end I use to bring the Twitter feeds to my RSS reader, Liferea, on my Linux device).

Once the Linux Lite only uses the Twitter to share software updates (until what I know rn), could the developers, or even the comunity of users, build up a public channel for LL updates ? It could be, for instance, whether a "blog" in this domain or a profile on Mastodon, some kind of place don't requires register to access it.

Thank you for the attention. I am loving the experience of use this little Linux buddy on my 10 y.o. laptop, but this gap on the communication is downing it. Bye for now !

  First want to install to a bootable disk then ........
Posted by: MsMixedup - 06-30-2023, 10:47 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (2)

Hello ...... Before I ask questions I should tell you I'm a lady (senior). I know nothing about programming. Just wanted to try this.
I wanted to burn LL to a bootable disk. If I like it I wanted to take the disk and install LL as a dual boot setup on the drive so I can still get to windows 7.
I have someone here at home that will help me to some degree. They told me they had some trouble setting up a different version of linux because it asked for a password and when that was typed it just made unreadable dots. Has linux changed that ? How should I proceed ? By the way, where is the download ?

  Help!! Update just broke my system!!
Posted by: timbuck2 - 06-30-2023, 04:41 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (3)

So I had a notice that 2 updates (LL6.4) were available today linux-modules and nvidia_module I believe they were.

Went ahead and updated and it recommended to reboot so I did.

Now my desktop won't load.  Hangs with blinking cursor and black screen.

(I can still log in with Alt-F2 vrtual terminal if that can help reverse the update)

Please Help!!  I have no idea how to fix this!

  Macbook Pro 2012 blank screen on boot up
Posted by: Norman Ibe - 06-29-2023, 09:21 AM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - Replies (8)

I've recently revived our old macbook pro 2012, upgrade ram to 8gb and installed a 512gb ssd,
after installing linux lite on my machine, and booting it up I'm stuck on a blank screen with a loading icon at the bottom.

I've tried a hard reset but the issue still is still there... so after many tries I've switch to another lightweight Linux distro (linux mint mate)

Can I install and android player/emulator in LL?  I have Bluestacks 4 in a separate partition on my Windows 7 machine, but it does not see the onboard bluetooth so it cannot do everything I want.  I tried installing BlissOS in Windows, but it does not like my hardware.

  Trouble getting VLC installed properly and working
Posted by: billtour - 06-28-2023, 02:58 AM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (10)

Attempting to play a commercial video (works in Windows' VLC), video window flashes on screen but does not play.

Tried "sudo apt remove VLC".  Got the following:

Removing vlc (3.0.9.2-1) ...
Setting up eveusb (10.0.0) ...
/usr/bin/env: ‘python’: No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing package eveusb (--configure):

Errors were encountered while processing:
eveusb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


Also, tried "sudo apt install VLC" after attempted removal and got the following:

eveusb seems to be the "common denominator".

Should I try removing and installing eveusb?

  Chrome Remote Desktop w/ lid closed
Posted by: SandmanUT - 06-25-2023, 09:44 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (1)

System: Running LL 6.4 on old Dell Lattitude laptop. Everything works smooth out of the box except the wifi driver, but unneeded as machine will be on ethernet always.

Purpose: What I want to do is use this as a remote access point on my network utilizing Chrome Remote Desktop since Chrome came standard. 

Info: The machine installed the deb perfectly for CRD and I can access it as expected...as long as the lid is open. I did the logind.conf edit and set all the HandleLidSwitch options to ignore. I've set all the power option in the GUI to stay awake (it's on AC power always, but set battery too) and this keeps the screen alive and active when I shut the lid (like I'm not shutting it at all at the physical keyboard).

BUT...

the moment I shut the lid, it cuts off the CRD session and won't restart it without a log out/in  on the laptop (physical). Obviously that's not going to work. Does anyone have an older Dell running like a headless unit with CRD (or other laptops)? What's driving the session break when at-the-keyboard is staying live? I need to know what's still reacting to the lid switch. Thanks
