Hi, I've recently installed L-L . I've tried many distros but recently have been looing for a small one to use on an elderly machine and this it.
It looks neat so I guess I'll stick with it.

Hello,
Whilst looking in the log files I found the the following:
Code: [ 0.123183] perf_event_intel: PEBS disabled due to CPU errata, please upgrade microcode
[ 3.770289] microcode: CPU0 sig=0x206a7, pf=0x2, revision=0x1a
[ 3.879765] microcode: CPU1 sig=0x206a7, pf=0x2, revision=0x1a
[ 3.890331] microcode: CPU2 sig=0x206a7, pf=0x2, revision=0x1a
[ 3.891874] microcode: CPU3 sig=0x206a7, pf=0x2, revision=0x1a
[ 3.894952] microcode: Microcode Update Driver: v2.00 <[email protected]>, Peter Oruba
Further Googling led me to:
https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxt.../microcode
Following the instructions resulted in:
Code: [ 0.123196] perf_event_intel: PEBS disabled due to CPU errata, please upgrade microcode
[ 4.671498] microcode: CPU0 sig=0x206a7, pf=0x2, revision=0x1a
[ 4.764014] microcode: CPU1 sig=0x206a7, pf=0x2, revision=0x1a
[ 4.769083] microcode: CPU2 sig=0x206a7, pf=0x2, revision=0x1a
[ 4.770855] microcode: CPU3 sig=0x206a7, pf=0x2, revision=0x1a
[ 4.777104] microcode: Microcode Update Driver: v2.00 <[email protected]>, Peter Oruba
[ 5.914461] microcode: CPU0 updated to revision 0x29, date = 2013-06-12
[ 5.914886] microcode: CPU1 updated to revision 0x29, date = 2013-06-12
[ 5.915303] microcode: CPU2 updated to revision 0x29, date = 2013-06-12
[ 5.915766] microcode: CPU3 updated to revision 0x29, date = 2013-06-12
[ 5.915769] perf_event_intel: PEBS enabled due to microcode update
the integrated microcode was loaded, but then the updated microcode is recognised and loaded.
So I think this is all O.K, but I'm not to sure..??
UPDATE: #1
Apparently after further Googling there is another tool that appears(but this is where I get a bit lost) to allow the removal
of the older version, but it needs "Multiverse Repository" adding..??, and I don't want to break anything..!!
iucode_tool
http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/rari...ool.8.html
UPDATE: #2
It appears the iucode_tool is installed along with intel-microde packages, a dependency.
Also the original base code cannot be removed, from Googling the base and update always seem to show in dmesg.
So I guess I can close this.
Thanks... David

| Brightness Control - Not working |

Installed Linux Lite on my mate's old laptop last week, his major complain being that he can't change the brightness. Not by the Fn keys or elsewhere.
Anyone got any clue on how to fix that? Real Linux newbie here still, but I installed Linux Lite so that his dying laptop could perhaps last a little longer. Windows was crippling it even further.
So, any thoughts on how to troubleshoot/fix that?

Hello everyone. My name is Jim and I just downloaded and installed Linux Lite. I feel like a fish out of water. I can't even figure out how to install a program that isn't already in the system. I was wondering if there might be a good tutorial to watch to figure this all out. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! Have a great day!
Jim

| Bug in reverting the menu |

I clicked on the revert button to reset my menu - but it did not go back to the original state as it was during and after installation. Instead, the "Install Updates" disappeared and the icons for the first 3 submenus for System went missing.

:-\ After reading post about users losing their menu items, Linux Lite installed modified desktop, and warnings from Valtam about resetting menu I wonder about the Install Updates - Terminal. Some of the updates I can see are from Jerry Bezencon (Valtam) but some but some are from Ubuntu and some I do not reconize. Are all updates offered by this program from or screened by the Linux Lite Development Team; therefore, safe to do?
I no longer even ask Synaptic to check for update dues to be concerned about messing up Linux Lite.

| Version Lock Does Not Work With a dist-upgrade |

Hi,
In Synaptic Software manager I lock a version of gqview, it appears red in Synaptic and seems to indicate it's locked. But when I do a dist-upgrade it updates to geeqie and newer version of gqview.
Is there away when I run upgrade to skip the "upgrade" for gqview or block anything named geeqie?
