Hello,
I used LinSSID a while back in LL2 and it worked very well for scanning what wifi was about near to me.
Today when I try to use it for the first time in LL2.2, it does not appear to be working and I am unsure why, or how to solve this ?
This is what occurs -
1/ the program GUI does not open when clicked.
2/ a box pops up on the desktop instead that is like so -
    "password required for iwlist scan:"
Below this it reads -
"First Shot:"
and below this it has a space to type password
Below this it has cancel and okay buttons.
3/ if cancel is clicked a new box pops up reading "password fail"
4/ if something silly such as 1 character is entered it pops up a box as per #3 then as per #2 but reading "second shot".
5/ I looked up iwlist and it says it is a command for scanning wifi.

I am trying to test from home what set ups work best, and also experiment how a variety of combinations compare, and if I can connect to the any of the many free public access wifi that have no password. Later in the year I will also try to be using wifi when out/mobile sometimes.

In this instance the new kit I am trying to test is -
1/ a small wifi n dongle with 5dbi external antenna.
2/ an Alfa 7dbi panel antenna attached to my Alfa Awuso36h, I know this adapter works fine as it is what I have used in my previous exploring, I have also retried it using its 5dbi omni, and also a Yagi directional I have and the same occurs in LinSSID, in all tries, which is why I guessed it may be a software issue not hardware.

Here is a new one.....and I have done a little research on this but have no conclusion.

In the past I have installed VNC on my linux machine for remote desktop into my computer. After rebuilding this machine to LL 2.2 I decided to try Teamviewer 10 as a remote desktop app....since I have been using it for connecting to other systems for a couple years. It is much simpler to install and configure. However, it appears I cannot access the system from the outside when the screen is locked. When I first installed TV 10, I had no trouble accessing it during some testing, but the screen was never locked at that time. The last two times I have tried connecting remotely it has gone through the process of "initiating display parameters" but fails to actually connect. I can only assume this is due to the screen being locked locally.

Sooooo....what is the solution to getting this working correctly? And if there is no solution, is there a simplified method to get vnc running on LL 2.2.....as installing vnc seems to keep changing each time I have to rebuild, and I have to figure out how to get it to work again.

Thanks.

Is it possible with Linux Lite? Whenever I try and enable encryption the installer basically refuses to do so.

Here is my wallpaper.

I am looking to make a wall paper but what fonts are used I am making a WBGS and Linux Lite custom wallpaper.

Any way to install the latest AMD Drivers i am just wondering the omega ones and if so will they get good performance like ti is now if not I wont bother.

Hi, I am new to Linux Lite. Just installed it on an Intel NUC platform using the embedded MMC 4 gig "drive". All that is installed apart from the default is Opencpn, which is a navigation program. I have removed the office apps and now only have about 60 meg free. I am looking for information as to which files /apps / utilities I could remove to give me some space? I would like to install Chrome and remove Firefox as I use Chrome everywhere else and the way it syncs your everything is what I want. Is Chrome bigger than Firefox after installation?

I'm posting on Video Cards thinking the problem lies there, however I'm not sure. I'm salvaging a relatively old desktop (back when Vista was around) for friends of mine. The installation went fine but I'm encountering intermittent screen freezes, which produce lines across the screen. It seems to occur especially when I'm browsing. I have to switch off the hard drive and then try again. Most times, it reboots OK but a few minutes later, the same problem occurs. I changed the D-SUB connection over and there was some improvement. I was thinking this may have solved the problem, but I had another freeze whilst in Thunderbird.
I've attached the System Report - hope someone can help.

Thanks

I am hoping to be able to use Linuxlite to watch online streaming episodes from HBOGO.  Any attempt to view a video returns nothing (but an empty screen) from both Firefox and Chrome.  Searching around a bit it appears that Pipelight may be a solution that allows the streaming content inside the adobe flash viewer (which is the latest version) inside the Chrome browser.  I'm a bit confused as to whether the newest version of Pipelight requires the full Wine installation which I would prefer not to do.

Does anyone have HBOGO working?  How was this achieved?  Thanks.
