Hi all,

I'm trying to install Linux Lite on an old Think X131e, however in the installation process it seems to be stuck on "installing ubuntu-drivers..."

I have no way to tell if it is really stuck or actually making progress and just taking a really long time. Is there a way to escape the GUI and see some sort of log?

Thanks!

Hi, all.

Thank you in advance for your help. I did search the forum, but couldn't find an answer.

I love Linux Lite but don't wish to use Chrome. In fact, I'd like to remove it completely in favour of another browser as my default. I understand that I could easily add another browser of my choice and just not use Chrome, but I'd like to purge the latter completely. I remember reading somewhere that it is not a good idea to remove applications that come with the base build of an OS, so I was wondering:

1. How do you remove Chrome from Lite?
2. Will removing it in favour of another browser have an adverse effect on the stability or usability of the system?

Once again, thanks for the help.

When I check system it says running 5.4. Want to upgrade to 5.8. When I go to "upgrade" it says "already running latest release. ???I just had my 77th birthday so go slow. ThanksWhat steps do I need to take?

Linux Lite 6.2, Release 22.04.

The Session and Startup window does not have the tab for "Splash" option.

Any help - why is it missing and how to make it available.

Thank you.

Hey there,

I unfortunately am unable to install Tiktok on my smartphone. Plus, when I try to read my messages on TikTok's website, it tells me, "[This message type isn't supported. Download the TikTok app to view this message.]" Given all this, I wish to install it on my desktop. After several different searches, I was unable to accomplish this.

What do you guys recommend? Please do your best to answer my question directly, rather than simply tell me not to install it. Thank you.

G'day all. 

Thought it was about time I signed up here, since I have been using the product since before the UEFI was introduced in the 4.x series.

Also, I am hoping to have someone fast-track me in navigation so that I can post a Thread checking to see if Jerry and the LL Team are aware of a problem for Timeshift that will be coming with the release of Ubuntu's Kinetic Kudu point release imminently.

This, in so far as it might adversely affect a future release of Linux Lite.

Thanks in advance.

So, guys, I have updated hours ago from 5.8 to 6.0 and I can't find where this configuration is. I am not managing to move windows at the bottom icon bars neither reordering them, please help me with it.

Hi, everyone!

Since the problem occures often and I had it many times, after finding a way out of this, I thought it would be useful to share it.

If the Indicator Plugin is missing from your list, you can install it with the following:

Ok, I will try reporting this again in a different way since I don't think my previous post was understood.

This is a software issue. Not hardware.

After installing LL 6.2 I am unable to use the "settings"  - "Install driver" application to install the proprietary drivers for my system.
In LL 5.8 this worked.

Running "install drivers" would list both the "Nouveau" open source nvidia driver, and the proprietary nvidia driver version 340.108.

However In LL 6.2 I get the result  "No proprietary drivers found."

The Install 6.2 uses the Nouveau drivers by default.

Unfortunately along with poor performance in some tasks, I have found the Nouveau drivers are not very stable and cause video corruption in some simple applications like the system monitor.

With the closure of OSDisc.com, I now buy Linux disks from a guy on eBay, and he suggested I try Linux Lite. I find it easy to figure out for a Windows user, unlike so many other distros I have tried in the past, and the auto-boot is definitely appreciated. I have been using it in LiveCD mode for a couple months now, and ready to commit to an actual install, so figured it's time to join the forum as I have many questions.
