  Openshot Video Editor won't open (launch)
Posted by: gb9130 - 07-29-2022, 07:23 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (3)

Installed LL6 on 2 laptops and installed Openshot via Lite Software app. Openshot appears in the Start Menu as Video Editor, but will not open. No error msg. Tried launching via mouse click on menu and via Start key + 'open'. Re-booted both systems. Same result. Any ideas? Gil Brand

  actualizacion en la version 6.0 desaparce visor wifi
Posted by: Edmond Armisen - 07-29-2022, 01:49 PM - Forum: Spanish [Spanish] - Replies (1)

Instaladoa version 6.0 se procede ainstalar las actualizaciones sugeridas 207 aprox, despues de instaladas desaparece la posibilidad de ver las redes inalambricas desde el escritorio.
Debe hacerse con comandos.
Creo que alguna actualizacion lo perjudica.
el procedimiento desde menu y redes solo indica una sola red inalambrica, la que esta conectada y no deja hacer nada mas.

  LinuxLite 6.0 snap-free?
Posted by: Rosika - 07-29-2022, 11:44 AM - Forum: Suggestions and Feedback - Replies (7)

Hi all,  Smile

up till now I´ve been using Lubuntu as a resource-friendly OS. I´ve got 4 GB of RAM available; so I have to take that fact into account.
Yet it seems I cannot stay with this distro any longer when it finally reaches EOL next April.
Therefore I´m considering switching over to LinuxLiteWink

The reason is the following:

Ubuntu and its official derivatives force snaps onto the user (with version 22.04). I have cause to avoid them.

Looking on LinuxLite´s package list at https://distrowatch.com/table.php?distri....0#pkglist I wouldn´t find any of the snap related packages other Ubuntu derivatives are using, which seems pretty good to me.

However I still found those 3 entries having the keyword "snap" in them:

• gir1.2-snapd-1:amd64 1.60-0ubuntu1
• libsnapd-glib1:amd64 1.60-0ubuntu1
• libsnappy1v5:amd64 1.1.8-1build3

My question would be:

What would that entail?
In other words: Is LinuxLite 6.0 fluorite snap-free?  :Smile
It´s based on Ubuntu after all, right?

Thanks so much for your help in advance.

Many greetings
Rosika  :wave

  Bug Reports - How to
Posted by: valtam - 07-28-2022, 07:37 AM - Forum: Security & Bug Fixes - No Replies

The following is the correct format in which to present a Bug Report. Also, we'll give an example of what constitutes an actual Bug.

DO NOT use the Prefix 'BUG' or anything else when creating your Thread title. An Admin, Active Developer or a Moderator will do that once it has been confirmed.

Example of what a Bug is

A 'Bug' means that a piece of Software either produces an error, and or it is not working or functioning as it should.

Example: You click on Lite Software and the window does not load. If we were to run Lite Software in a Terminal, we would see something like:

[Image: g3Ngi7q.png]

This is a Bug because the software does not work properly.

What is NOT a Bug

Example: You install Linux Lite, and your graphics card is only displaying at 800 x 600 when you know it's capable of a better resolution. This is NOT a Bug. This example would belong in the Hardware section under Video Cards. Hardware not working is NOT a bug. This is something that can usually be resolved with a file edit, a newer or the correct driver, or a kernel or system update for example.

How to report a Bug

If software is not working as it should, run the program's executable command in a Terminal, then report the Terminal output using: [ code ] terminal output here [ / code ] (without the spaces).

Eg:

[Image: KzXolKw.png]

How do I find a programs executable command?

Example - Let's say we want to run the Text Editor, Mousepad. Open a Terminal, and most of the time the file name and executable will be the same.
Start typing the name of the software in lower case eg. mousep then press the Tab key on your keyboard. The file name should auto-complete.

  USB boot drive not working in two computers (Solved!)
Posted by: Jim0000 - 07-26-2022, 10:36 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (9)

I am planning on getting Linux Lite 64 bit operating system onto a HP Mini 210-1036VU laptop computer.
I downloaded the latest version (6.0) and created a bootable drive in my Linux Mint 20.3 operating system following these instructions:

https://linuxmint-installation-guide.rea.../burn.html

I first tried to boot off this medium in my laptop. I got so far as to see the GRUB menu.

That seemed to begin to work, as it showed the above menu. However, it stalled and would not boot.
I then tried the bootable USB stick in my main desktop computer and it also would not boot.
It appears that I have not successfully created a boot medium.

What am I doing wrong?
I should add, that I have tried to do this before for other earlier operating systems, but never succeeded in making a USB boot device that will actually boot.

Any helpful assistance would be most appreciated.

Jim.

  Help on Bluetooth (Turn on and turn off)
Posted by: pootie22 - 07-24-2022, 11:12 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (1)

Hi! I am super new to linux and I have spent the whole day trying to find this that I want. (Simple things). It was a bit hard for me since this is my first linux install, I have found some of the things that I needed (Wifi icon, battery indicator, FN keys reversed) But I am stuck on the option to quickly turn off and turn on bluetooth. Connecting a device is fine, I was able to connect my headset but I cannot seem to quickly turn it off.

Tried to search the using the start menu (not sure what it is really called in linux) and I can see two bluetooth options. First is bluetooth adapters (tried opening it but it only has visible and invisible, no option to turn off)
Next one I found is the bluetooth manager tried to click on it and it only shows the option to connect or search for devices (I connected my bluetooth device here) but there is still no option to turn if off)

I also tried adding both bluetooth adapters and bluetooth manager to the panel but even if I right or left click, I see no option to turn off bluetooth. 

Anyone please help.
