I'm trying to play GZDoom on Linux Lite but I'm getting an error saying my OpenGL is not supported, and I'm getting a "Segmentation Fault", here's the terminal output:

I am having great difficulty in configuring the keyboard for my Samsung notebook (model NP-145 or a.k.a. N145 Plus). Several of the keys do not produce the character indicated on them.

The LL 2.0 Keyboard application only lists 3 Samsung models to choose from, and the N145 Plus is not one of them. 

I'd be grateful for any assistance with this. If this Samsung model can't be configured with LL2.0, do you know of any other Linux distros (preferably Ubuntu based) that might work - maybe some of you already have experience with this?

Regards
Mike

any input is hugely appreciated!!

Our next addition to the Lite application family will be Lite Tweaks.

Install:

• Clean out package cache
  
• Perform autoremove of packages no longer needed
  

In my former life (windows7) i used Adobe Digital Editions.  As this is not compatible with Linux Lite 2, what do I do now? June

Firefox (or rather Mozilla-Firefox) is my default browser. However, when I click the '+' (new tab) on my Firefox browser, the Google toolbar appears, and lists any searches I make in my default Firefox! 

I'd rather not have Google at all, in any shape or form in Firefox.  Is it possible to remove it or is it inextricably embedded in Firefox.  Therefore, can I remove Google from my Firefox browser?  Is it possible using command line?   

Many thanks in advance for any help on this.
Kind regards
Mike

I would like to in the future become a Linux developer someday. I like playing video games and ready for a challege in programming.

She ain't quick, but it is doable. I think we have a new record

Hi eveyone, i've recently bought a mobile broadband adapter, the model is "olivetti 21.1"
First i tried to setup the adapter using the native network manager, i added a new connection and i choosed "mobile broadband" as type.
In the next dialog window,(note that i'm not able to choose the device i want to use to create a connection), i go to the next steps then i complete every step till the end of setup but my usb adapter doesn' connect. (The light on the usb is green which means the sim and the signal are ok).


As second try, i've googled for something similar to my problem and someone seemed to fix the issue unistalling modemmanager, (so did i) and using sakis 3g, but i can't connect even with it, as after settin up modem and choosing the interface #2 the program prints out "modem respondend ERROR while checking for PIN"






When i plug in the usb adapter the OS doesn't mount it and apparently it's not possible to do it, so i'm thinking the problem is linked to this. Here i post my lsusb output:
