I tried to install as non-listed game, wine-version: 5.0-3ubuntu1. POL creates the desktop shortcut...

If i start, wine says: Blizzard Background Downloader: Data for the next patch is not available.

The Terminal shows:

  upgrade 5.0 to 5.2
Posted by: arky217 - 01-28-2021, 04:20 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (3)

I have a friend who has Lite 5.0 installed.
He wants to upgrade to 5.2 but Lite Upgrade
is not on 'All Applications' in his menu even though his updates are current.

The command in Lite Upgrade is "lite-upgrade-series5".

Should he just run that command in the terminal or is there
some other way to get Lite Upgrade on the menu ?

  Linux Mint ships with Google's Noto fonts ?.
Posted by: Alex Sunny - 01-25-2021, 08:43 AM - Forum: Off Topic - Replies (2)

Hello,

I recently read that the newest LM now ships with Google's Noto fonts. I looked into it and and I can see why. The aim of the fonts is to support all of the world's languages. Personally, I like the way they look too.
https://ometv.onl https://chatroulette.top https://omegle.wtf https://bazoocam.cam
And because I'm addicted to Thunar's custom actions, I made one for installing fonts.

Description: Move fonts to ~/.fonts
Command: mv %N ~/.fonts
File Pattern: *.ttf;*.otf;*.ttc


thanks

  Install Lite on USB - recommended partitioning
Posted by: BigAl - 01-24-2021, 07:27 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (2)

Hi there. I have not been able to get live Lite to work persistent with USB, so I will install it to USB instead.
Method > install live image on one USB, install from Live image USB to new USB.

Question:
My destination USB is 1 partition, FAT32. Please advise recommended format for this 16Gb USB eg partitions and formats of partitions thanks kindly.

To follow up on this question, later I tried to install off the USB image. All went well till I got to partitioning, whereby the 2nd USB destination partition was determined as too small and I would have to resize to 5.5Gb by using the partition manager. Unlike other distros, there seems to be no option to edit partitions from the partition manager during install. It would appear you have to close the installer down, and instantiate Gparted to do the job.

Hence my question about recommended partitions and sizes.

  SOLVED - XFCE Terminal Question
Posted by: benslinux - 01-24-2021, 12:33 PM - Forum: Scripting and Bash - Replies (1)

Linux user for 9 years, new to Linux Lite and to this forum. What a fantastic distro - coming from Mint Cinnamon desktop to XFCE is a minor adjustment, but I like XFCE - especially the fact that I'm using less resources to run my desktop.

My question is about the XFCE terminal - after I type a command, I'll often get a result in the next like that shows a colored box with a number in it. I'm guessing that these are error codes of some kind - is there some reference list that explains these numbers - ie - should I use these numbers or interpret them in some way?

I don't know how to delete my post after having found the answer - the numbers are indeed error codes. By installing 'moreutils' I got a list that can be called up with 'errno' (error numbers). Sorry to post and answer my own question!
