  LL's remarkable stability
Posted by: trinidad - 08-26-2020, 08:57 PM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (2)

I had an install of LL 5.x on a computer I haven't been using regularly. I updated today... 77 days since my last update. In about 25 minutes all was done along with a successful reboot afterwards with no issues. In today's Linux world this is a remarkable achievement by an obviously meticulous developer. It has been my experience for some time now that Linux Lite is the most stable of all the Ubuntu derivatives and I believe that is because of its developer's dedicated attention to detail.

Posted by: ucanzeee - 08-26-2020, 04:48 PM - Forum: Other - No Replies

I mean not the up and down but the "button" itself doesn't work. Like where you press it and an icon shows up and when you go down with mouse page goes down. I mean that thing doesn't work at all. How do I do this?

  Is there a way to resize the right-click tapping zone/area in AppleTouch?
Posted by: UglyStuff - 08-25-2020, 08:38 AM - Forum: Other - No Replies

Hi everyone,

One of the (many) things I like about LL is that you get a right-click in the lower right corner of the (Appletouch) trackpad out of the box. That way, you don't have to chance a two-finger right-click that will fail, more often than not, and only scroll your page up or down.

Thing is, however practical, this feature needs some refinement on my aging (early 2006) MacBook Pro, because I think the tapping zone/area is too large, and I'll trigger a right-click even when all I want is, say, to left-click on the Like button in Twitter, and that's annoying.

Is there a way to resize the tapping zones/areas in Linux Lite?

  How to deal with broken RTC (real time clock)
Posted by: minesheep - 08-24-2020, 09:32 PM - Forum: Other - No Replies

My computer has time and date going ahead even days. This started when I upgraded to LL 5.0 but It is now happening even with LL4.6. I understand I cant have time without internet and without hardware RTC. Bios battery have already being changed with no help. Since computers with no hw rtcs exist (raspberry pi for example) I wonder if it's possible to override hw rtc when internet is available.

Code:
linux  ~  sudo hwclock --get
hwclock: ioctl(RTC_RD_TIME) to /dev/rtc0 to read the time failed: Invalid argument
linux  ~ 
When that happens I have to enter time manually with time and date (preinstalled software) in order to access some websites.
sudo hwclock --get usually works but when it fails my computer loses time.

  Walk me through a step-by-step way to enable hibernation on Lite 3.8 on Mac?
Posted by: UglyStuff - 08-24-2020, 03:42 PM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - No Replies

Hi everyone,

I'm still struggling with Lite 3.8 (32-bit, because my early 2006 MacBook Pro has a Core Duo CPU that only accepts 32-bit OSes) startup, with the occasional black screen of nothingness that prompts for a force shutdown, or the unwanted reboot on every other startup (see here: https://www.868212.xyz/forums/start...53405/#new).

To counter this until I find a viable solution, I'd like to use hibernation. On the Mac side of my MacBook Pro, it's pretty straightforward to set up, and very convenient, but on the Lite side, well...

I've read countless tutos here and there about how to do it, but there doesn't seem to be a mother of all recipes for my machine. Swap is set at 4GB (twice the installed RAM), so if the hibernation file is to be stored there, there's plenty of room to wriggle.

I'd really like to make this work, so please holler!
