| MSN website issue/can't scroll through pics |

I "THINK" this is a web problem only as I have the same issue on both my LL 2.4 desktop AND my Win7 laptop so I posted in Other but thought I'd see if anyone else had the same issue and/or if there's a fix.
When I'm on a web page where I have to scroll through different pics, I seem to get the same text for all (the text that goes with the first pic) and, after 5 or 6 pics, I can't scroll through any more pics.
Hard to describe but here are a couple examples.
http://www.msn.com/en-us/foodanddrink/fo...ss-AAaWM6B
As I scroll through the 6 pics of gross jelly bean flavors, each new pic should have text describing that flavor. Even while viewing pic 2, 3, 4, etc, the only text I see is the first one. Starting with pic 5, it won't scroll anymore.
http://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/autos-tru...ss-AAaXnm0
I get the same thing here (and with ANY page that has similar "scrolling"). (Not sure why there's a GMC in the "Mopar Truck Gallery".) At pic #5, I get a black (blank) screen (in the slideshow, NOT the entire screen) and can't seem to scroll past that. In addition, the pic numbers ("1 of 53", etc) never change.
I've emptied my internet cache, deleted cookies, rebooted both Firefox and the computer(s). Not sure what's causing this nor what to do to fix it if there is even a fix. MSN is run by MicroSloth so I doubt they'll do anything if the problem is on their end (which it must be since I'm having the same issue with both this LL desktop and my Win7 laptop). I HAVE reported it to them just in case there's someone breathing at their support site.

| Using USB stick like extra memory |

Ok Peeps,
I know that this is a feature that windows has where you can insert a USB stick and it will ask you if you want to use it to speed up your computer or if you want to import pics etc... I am wondering if Beryl (Linux Lite) can do that too.
Reason I am asking is that I have this Dell Optiplex that only has 1 gig of memory installed and it is sorta slow, Yes I know I can put in an additional 7 gigs of memory and it would fly then, but I cannot afford that and was wondering if there is a way to increase that or whatever. Any additional suggestions would be great. Thanks.
Comp specs- Optiplex 755 Dual processors @ 2.0 Gig with 972 mb of mem available after display usage.

This is my first post. I have only recently been introduced to Linux and have a lot to learn. Being a silver surfer also means I am sometimes slow on the uptake but that is another story
I have a meeting to attend tonight and I need to find a number of documents that contain similar themes. For instance say I have a hundred poems and 9 of them contain the word "dream". How can I out sort those 9 documents.
It is a forlorn hope that this will be read and answered prior to the meeting but I have nothing to lose. :-[

| Mapping a drive across VPN |

Hi
I am after help with mapping a drive at a university please. VPN connection has been established however the instructions to map the drive are for Windows, using 'NET USE' command.
The instructions that we have been given are:
Access to SHFC Department Folders (The N Drive)
1. Press the windows start button (located bottom left).
2. Select the Run command, a dialogue box will open entitled “Run”.
3. Type the following :
NET USE N: \\nfc456gh\squid$
4. Press the enter button.
5. A window will open asking for your username (use the username and
password you use for accessing email or outweb), type the following:
Enterprise\your username
Example : enter\addv606
6. You will now be prompted for a password; enter your current password.
7. The N Drive will now be mapped.
domain = aavpn.london.ac.uk
The terminal command I have been messing about with, based on these instructions is:
sudo mount.cifs //aavpn.london.ac.uk/nfc456ghi/squid$ ~/drive-N -o username=enter\addv606,password=orange
The error I get is:
mount error(115): Operation now in progress. Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)
What on gods earth am I doing wrong. Help will be hugely appreciated.

| Windows Key (Super) and Whiskermenu in LL 2.4 |
|

There is a new feature in LL 2.4: Whiskermenu pops up when you hit the left Windows key (Super key). It can not be turned off neither from Keyboard nor from Window Manager settings and to get rid of it you need to dig deep into Xfce configuration files, as described in this thread:
https://dfgkh547-jsdfv8.iyhkj.tk/forums/insta...p/msg13735
Personally, I find this new feature rather annoying. If anyone wants to start the Whiskermenu with the Super key alone then it can be easily done using the standard Keyboard settings with the command:
Code: xfce4-popup-whiskermenu
I always assign Ctrl+Esc to start the Whiskermenu, that's how it worked with Start menu in Windows XP. Here is a sample of my hotkeys that use the left Super key:
Super+I gimp
Super+L xscreensaver-command -lock
Super+U alacarte
Super+P synaptic-pkexec

Hello every one I am Joe, I am new to using linuxlite but not to linux I have been using linux mint for the last year or so. Ubuntu prior to that. I am still not very good at running linux but love to explore new linux OS that I have not tried yet. I hope that I will be able to share some that I have picked up along the way but have found this site very helpful and insightful.

| SOLVED Lost ps/2 Mouse pointer control after viewing Youtube Videos. |

On the HP DC7700 Desktop intel 82q963/q965 Vid Card-( spec in profile below) I lose control of the pointer whilst/after viewing Youtube videos. The Mouse "ghosts" so I can activate areas/controls but the actual visible pointer stays locked in place. i.e I have to guess where the pointer actually is and watch for change in activation point when "ghost" is over it. - I hope that this makes sense. Only way to overcome this is to reboot. Full mouse control is then returned. This appears to happen no matter which browser I use. Running 32 bit LL 2.4 ( and same previously on LL2.0 32 bit). Mouse is HP PS/2 plugin as supplied with desktop.
I have not had this problem, so far, when viewing standard web pages , I player etc,
Very annoying.
BTW this does not happen on the two laptops listed in my profile below.
Any ideas welcomed. Thanks
