From lots of Linux distros & find LL last year or so if not longer .
Been on Linux since 2005/6 when had issues with Windows & got screwed with repairs/fixes done on some places that for some reasons never worked as told .
Had LL 1.08 , LL 2.0 & now LL 2.2 Beta . With loads of other Linux distros .
Have a dual install with ArchBang on it . As always I add/remove apps in order to fit my tastes/needs .
Love the forum so far , looks like a great bunch .
Love this distro based on LTS ,

| VICE (the Versatile Commodore Emulator) & BBS Connections |

Hi
I am new to Linux and I want to connect to a commodore 64 BBS. I have Linux lite 2.0 installed on an old laptop. I am running Vice
for Linux (I also have Wine installed and have a copy of winvice on the machine as well.) I have a terminal program for the C64
emulator. I have been trying to get this to work but I cannot and I am getting a little frustrated.
Here is what I have done so far;
I installed TCPSER with
sudo apt-get install tcpser
Also made sure NETCAT was installed with
sudo apt-get install netcat
(I read somewhere that I need this)
I then did this from a command window in linux
nc 127.0.0.1 25232. I read that I had to initialize Netcat like this.
Question 1: Why is the IP address 127.0.0.1? should it not be the IP assigned to my Linux box by my internet router?
Then I did this from a command window in linux
tcpser -v 25232 -s 1200 -p 6400
Question 2: I must leave this command window open while trying to connect. Is this correct?
Then I opened Vice (Linux version)
in settings under the RS232 settings menu: ◦Turn on “Userport RS232 emulation
under “Userport RS232 baud rate set baud to 1200
Under “Userport RS232 device” select “Exec process”.
◦Under “Program name to exec…” type | nc localhost 25232
Question 3 : should I change localhost to the IP address assigned to my Linux box?
I then saved my settings in Vice, closed vice and restarted it.
I then opened my Terminal software (CCGMS 5.5) with vice and tried to dial a BBS IP address
Question 4: should I try using striketerm instead?
When I dial the BBS IP address, It just says no carrier
The command window where I did the tcpser -v 25232 -s 1200 -p 6400 command doesn’t show anything, it doesn’t tell me that it is
trying to connect.
I can’t figure out what I am doing wrong.
Can someone please help. I am going crazy here.
Is it because the BBS I am dialing is not working.
Do you have the IP of a known working BBS?
Please help
Thanks in advance

Been testing this browser for some time now. Approximately 7-10 days ago the shortcut to dfgkh547-jsdfv8.iyhkj.tk broke. So removed it and tried to install a new one and since then Midori can't load the Lite forum page. That's like telling me no coffee in the morning...not gonna fly too well. Have changed all the settings around in Preferences 3-4 times...still no joy. Was planning on switching over completely from Chromium, that's not happening now.
Can anyone, please, point me in the right direction in finding a solution?
In the FAQ's found this: [color=rgb(64, 64, 64) !important][size=14pt !important][font=serif !important]HTTPS URLS won't load
That's a problem with WebKit. You can work around it to some extent if you start Midori like so:
export WEBKIT_IGNORE_SSL_ERRORS="1" midori...any idea where to install this? Thanks in advance.[/font][/size][/color]

I am not in the market for another computer now thanks to Linux Lite. When I am I would want another desktop either new or refurbished that had Linux Lite pre-installed or good for installing Linux Lite.
If desktops with Linux Lite pre-installed were available for purchase too that would be great. If not, perhaps a list of computers (with links) that would work well with an install of Linux Lite could be maintained for shoppers?

I've noticed some distros/implementations of the Whisker Menu display the user name (just first or first and last) with the first character in uppercase. Maybe this is a possible addition for LL 2.2? I've attempted to do this on my own but so far haven't been successful.

1) Needs to have a normal Grub2 not a beta ver
2) Needs to have a normal Sylpheed on the packages not a beta ver
3) Needs to have a fast shutdown,avoiding the 30sec window and the sleep/restart/shutdown window

| Refurbished Laptops with Linux Lite preinstalled |

The idea here is to get laptops out to people at a reasonable price with Linux Lite preinstalled and configured.
What people will get:
A low to high end range refurbished laptop
Linux Lite preinstalled and set up with your user details (submitted via an order form)
All updates and drivers installed - nothing to set up, unbox it, start using it straight away
90 day warranty
There will be 3 models available: low end, mid range, high end
Typical specifications start at:
Model A: (low end)
Processor Intel Core2 Duo @ 2.0GHz
Memory 2GB Ram
Hard Drive 80GB 5400rpm SATA
Optical Drive Slimline DVD-RW
Wireless 802.11 A/B/G
Screen Size 14.1" LCD
Screen Resolution 1440 x 900
and go to:
Model C: (high end)
Processor Intel Quad Core 2.5GHz
Memory 8GB Ram
Hard Drive 500GB SATA
Optical Drive Slimline DVD-RW
Wireless 802.11 A/B/G
Screen Size 15.6" LCD
Screen Resolution 1600 x 900
This is both a way to support the project whilst helping the environment.
Assuming you wanted one of these, what would you expect to pay for either Model A & Model C?
