Code: sudo apt-get install espeak
This is one cool script , it can be used instead of login sound. It uses text2speech with customized female voice. 
Code: #!/bin/sh

| [SOLVED] Just installed Linux Lite 1.0.8, and no sound? |

Well, the subject says it all really... I've just switched from Windows 7 (on which I had sound working fine) to Linux Lite 1.0.8. However, when I try to watch a YouTube video for example, there'e no sound at all I've looked at the Help Manual, but I can't seem to find anything that helps me... But then again I'm not the best with computers, and probably misunderstood something... But yeah, any help would be greatly appreciated 
I've also looked through some of the other questions on here, and often people ask for this I believe... Probably the wrong thing, but I hope it helps somewhat

Might be less confusing if the default netbios name was set to something other than 'lappy' at the top of smb.conf, for example :
Code: #======================= Global Settings ====================================
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
server string = Linux Lite Shares
netbios name = linux-lite

Hi All,
Complete newbie to LINUX. Using an old XP HP 2510p (2 GB RAM). Linux Lite works fine off the live cd so I assume hardware OK. Installed a new SSD (Kingspec 64 GB) and loaded Linux.
Some outputs :
Code: linux@linux:~$ sudo fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 63.6 GB, 63612911616 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 7733 cylinders, total 124243968 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x000951f6
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 2048 120098815 60048384 83 Linux

/dev/sr0: LABEL="Linux Lite 2.0 32-bit" TYPE="iso9660"
linux@linux:~$
Was really looking forward to using Linux but without Hard drive boot it is no use. Could this be a BIOS issue ??? I have made the Hard drive 1st on bootup - get a GIMP error but cant do anything(wouldn't know what to do anyway)
All help gratefully accepted.

I think the Menu->Internet->Support link might need to be changed. As it stands it uses xdg-open which doesn't seem to use the default WebBrowser (at least for me - I set SeaMonkey as my default in 'preferred applications' but the support link opens with Firefox). Using exo-open does the trick though:
Code: exo-open --launch WebBrowser http://dfgkh547-jsdfv8.iyhkj.tk/forums/

I have an HP Mini100-3000 that I originally replaced the Windows 7 Starter with Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick. I was less than satisfied with the Maverick and learned about Linux Lite this past weekend. I installed it as the sole O.S. and am very pleased with the format.
My only issue is installing the software from the program list. I really want Chrome and selected #2, typed password, and waited for package download. I keep getting an error saying the download failed. I tried other choices and the same thing happens.
Does anyone have any suggestions or can direct me to a previous post? :-\
BTW, I did not install any updates. Could this be my problem? I see other replies and will check this later today.

| Equivalent to System restore? |

Hi all.
gave my partner a fairly decent laptop to replace her ageing 10 plus year old unit, the ageing unit was running LL 1.08 and she was used to it and happy to use it though the thing would lag terribly sometimes, so I installed LL2 on a duel core AMD Asus APU, got it ready with all the stuff she uses, the Laptop has no battery and sadly the Power Supply was accidental pulled after she got it home and the unit is asking for a keyring when she tries to connect to her wireless network now.
I'll fix that tomoz as she has a job close to my place and I will be able to get it done before she has to go home.
My thought was, for people like my partner, who have a problem like this ... is there any way a roll-back or system restore option could be enabled, or a program to do this type of repair, I was away from home when she rang me and was at a lose as to how to help her over the phone.
I understand that Linux is not about creating gigs of data in-case something happens, data that would be used roll back the system to before the problem occurred.
Though any thoughts on what one could do to help to created a routine that anyone could be followed to help one to get the system back to a working state once a crucial error occurs would be appreciated.
Cheers.

| add menu item |

I am trying to add a menu item that will run a script from the terminal. However after adding it, it does not open a terminal, and it does not run the script.
The menu item is simply to start a minecraft server. It works fine running the command via command line, but I can't get the menu item to work. Is there a way to set the directory path to run the script from (so it will find all the files it needs to run)? And also why does it not open the terminal window, when I have that option checked (using main menu).
Thanks
