Just wanted to give Jerry and the other forum members a BIG round of applause for all the help I've received. I've tried various Linux distros in the past with little success. If those had the same support that LL has, I probably would have stuck with Linux a long time ago. I tend to get frustrated and stressed pretty easily but when I installed 2.2 a few hours ago, I felt much less stress than normal mostly because I KNEW, if I had a problem (and I did), I'd get an answer here.
Two thumbs up to the Linux Lite "team"!

I just installed 2.2 (awesome so far) and when I set my user name, I didn't think to delete the "System-Product-Name" part. I just typed the user name I wanted. Now, the terminal knows me as "[me]-System-Product-Name". Can I change this to just "[me]" without reinstalling? I'm sure it doesn't affect anything but I have OCD so it bothers me.
(If this is in the wrong sub forum, I apologize. I wasn't sure where to put it.)[/me][/me]

Hi All,
Thought I would share this with the group, hope it's understandable.?
I have installed and tested/tried "Teamviewer" and it works really well.
I wanted something a bit "Lite"er for use around my home network.
So after some research, here's what I found and did using repo options.
1. Full Remote Desktop
First Part, On the PC(s) you want to Connect TO and control
Open a terminal Ctrl-Alt-T and type:
Code: sudo apt-get install vino
sudo apt-get install dconf-editor
You will now have 2 new programs, in the Menu
type: dconf and select dconf-editor
then
type: Desktop and select Desktop Sharing
![[Image: sbBZYd7.png]](http://i.imgur.com/sbBZYd7.png)
In dconf-editor navigate to > org > gnome > desktop > remote-access and untick the [X] require-encryption,
just click on the the X at the top of the window to close it.
In Desktop Sharing Preferences set the options shown, you can set a password if you wish, then close it
Open a terminal Ctrl-Alt-T and type:
and find your IP Address, it will say something like inet addr: 192.168.1.10
Keep a note of the IP Address for the next part. You can now re-boot the PC
Second Part, On the PC you are going to Connect FROM
Open a terminal Ctrl-Alt-T and type:
Code: sudo apt-get install vinagre
You now have a new program, Remote Desktop Viewer
in the Menu
type: Remote and select Remote Desktop Viewer and then click on the Connect
You can use these settings but use your IP Address the one you noted above, then press "Connect" button

Anyone know how to install K9copy in 2.2. Development is discontinued, but still a great program. Does it need a PPA. Thanks!
BTW, LL is amazing! Best I've used. Boots to desktop in 42 seconds on my Acer I3. Great work from the author!

| After install No Wallpaper - panel on top |

I installed Linux Lite on a USB stick and after using the live session I decided to install it on my laptop. After I installed it, I was surprised to find a desktop without wallpaper, the panel was top mounted and the menu icon with the standard xfce mouse rather than the Linux Lite icon.
I installed wallpaper, added a new menu from the panel etc., and everything seems to work fine, but I was surprised that the desktop was totally different from the live session. Now I am concerned that maybe the iso file was corrupted and there maybe be a price to pay later. Anybody else experience this/have this problem? Also, in case you are wondering, I did not check the MD5 sum before installing and yes I know I should have.
Now should I continue on or download a new iso and re-install?

I was pleasantly surprised how easy to load LL in a dual boot configuration with another operating system but I think I need to do it a little differently on my wife's Windows 7 computer. If I add LL to her machine the way I did it on mine and she presses the power button LL will come up by default. How do I make it so Windows comes up by default so I don't make my wife mad?

| Patchy pixels in Google Earth street view |

Scott said: Quote: I'm not a Google Earth user but I thought I'd at least make an attempt at a solution for this issue.
So it seems that the issue is in the rendering? Googling "google earth rendering" resulted in many hits, here's one that looked promising.
https://support.google.com/earth/answer/148070?hl=enQuote:Thanks Scott. I had a look at the link you gave (above), but the rendering problem or 'patchy pixels', when Goole Earth is on street view, appears to be an LL-specific, as it does not show up in either Zorin 6.4 or Windows 7, running on the same laptop (Asus X71Q). The step was to then go to Tools and then to Options within Google Earth, to check the display settings as you indicated in your link. I found the settings were identical for Win 7 and Zorin 6.4, LL2.2 or LL2, so the 'patchy pixels' issue appears unrelated to the display settings in Google Earth.
Is anyone else having difficulties with Google Earth in LL? Any other ideas on how this problem may be removed in LL?
Regards
Mike
