Hello,
I'm a newbie in linux, please someone can explain me - step by step - how to install this gps software:
https://bitbucket.org/maproom/qmapshack/wiki/Home

in my laptop:

Linux Lite 2.6
Desktop: Xfce 4.10
Processor: Intel® Atom™ CPU D525 @ 1.80GHz
Architecture: x86_64
Kernel: Linux 3.13.0-62-generic
Software Updates: Last updated on 2016-01-04 time to update

Many many thanks in advance !

p.s: I've find also this package:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qmapshack
but I have not idea how to install it..

I have just bought a Usbasp programmer for updating the firmware on my quadcopter.Will this work with Linux Lite or do I need to do something to make it work.Will LL detect it when I plug it into my usb port .

Thanks

John

I'm using the following command line to make my username in light red.

export PS1="\[\e[1;31m\][\u@\h\w]\$ \[\e[0m\] "

When I try to make my change permanent in the .bashrc file, it just screws it up. What should I enter into the .bashrc file?

old command:
export PS1="\[\e[1;31m\][\u@\h\w]\$ \[\e[0m\] "

I'm using the latest version of LL. Was able to get my laptop to recognize my broadcom wifi but it now asks for my wifi login and keyring password. Anyone know a fix?

In all the years I've been using Linux it's always had problems with wifi and ethernet. Windows solved that issue with Win 95. I'm using a Dell Latitude D620 and forget how to fix the built in wireless. Anyone know the answer? Thanks

Hi, my name is Lynne and this is my very first time at joining any sort of forum at all. Linux Lite has persuaded me. 

I live in Australia and am an older lady.

I have been using Ubuntu (mostly) and Kubuntu (some of the time) and Linux Mint (tried it for awhile) over the past few years and now have just installed the latest Linux Lite version. I am not an expert but I do know a little to get me around the distro. During yesterday when I installed it, I did call in here to find a couple of answers and now here I am ... all new and shiny and saying "Hi".

Hi,


I asked for Linux Lite to be added.
(( You need to register and make at least 1 post though ))

Do a lot of video editing and compositing. Can anyone recommend a good easy use video editor, joiner and DVD ripper?
Without these appz, I can't fully switch from Windows to Linux. Thanks.
