  Thumbnails not showing in Caja
Posted by: johnausten13 - 06-25-2020, 07:44 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (3)

Hello.

I just upgraded from LL 4.8 to LL 5.0 a few days ago. One of the changes that I usually do is to change my file manager from Thunar to Caja because the former (Thunar) doesn't have preview options that I prefer. After the upgrade, some thumbnails in Caja are not showing even if I set the same preview options at less than 10 MB :

Caja>Edit>Preferences>Preview>Other Previewable Files>Always show thumbnails>Only files smaller than 10 MB.

  Touchscreen/Soft keyboard/Gesture
Posted by: Marc Bonnier - 06-25-2020, 02:47 AM - Forum: Other - No Replies

Hi,

I search a bit on the forum but found nothing helping. Maybe is miss something? Please link me the topic!

I found an old HP Elitepad 1000 G2 and it was SOOOO slow and unusable. Since I always wanted to try Linux Lite, I gave it a shot with a lot of success. That tablet is usable again! Even better than a fresh windows 7 install.

I got some issue with the touchscreen:

  1. The touchscreen works to move the mouse but I don't see how to do a right click!
  2. Is it possible to have a soft keyboard showing up when a text field is active?
  3. Is there a way to setup gesture like, pinch to zoom/unzoom, double finger to scroll, etc. Like on typical tablet?

I saw (google) people talking about the software touchegg that give some options for touchscreen setup. Before I try some external software, I was looking for a possible builtin Linux Lite solution to keep it clean.

Anyone got a tablet working perfectly with the touchscreen? Is so, could you share your recipe?

Thanks!  Smile

Marc

  LibreOffice update
Posted by: amdunn - 06-24-2020, 08:46 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (4)

Any timetable for including an updated version of LibreOffice?

Current version appears to be 6.4.3.3 which has a nasty usability gap in the print dialog for LO Writer when used on 1024x768 or smaller screens (the print dialog is too tall and you can't click OK to... actually print!).

LO developers say the fix is in 6.4.4 but that doesn't seem to have rolled out yet.

Or is the alternative to uninstall the version that comes with LL and then download and install the .deb and fix up all the paths etc.?

  Wifi does connect but then I dont have internet. Later it disconnects.
Posted by: Middelmatig - 06-24-2020, 04:58 PM - Forum: Network - No Replies

So the WiFi doesnt work

I am kind of new to Linux. I experimented with it in 2017 but have now fully gotten back in to it. I run PopOS on my main desktop, Lubuntu on a slow laptop and was trying to install Linux Lite on my 17" i3 laptop, because running Windows is possible but slow (and the laptop isn't being used, so I saw it as an opportunity to mess around with Linux Lite). The only problem is that it doesn't want to connect to the WiFi. When I connect I can enter my password and it says connected, but then in the bottom-right the circle keeps spinning and later is says " disconnected" ... I have tried searching the internet but the commands shown don't work. Can someone help?

Edit: Just installed Linux Lite on another laptop, and that one is able to connect to the WiFi.

  Browser and Update problems
Posted by: UltraCookie - 06-24-2020, 08:43 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (2)

Hi all,


Sadly LL right now is a bit unusable to me.
I had to switch to Chrome a FF is completely broken. After starting it I get an unresponsive window and closing it again gets me the Mozilla Crash reporter.
I installed Chrome through Lite Software but now updating throws this error:

Code:
W: GPG-Fehler: http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb stable InRelease: Die folgenden Signaturen konnten nicht überprüft werden, weil ihr öffentlicher Schlüssel nicht verfügbar ist: NO_PUBKEY 78BD65473CB3BD13
E: Das Depot »http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb stable InRelease« ist nicht signiert.
Google says to run this command:
Code:
wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | sudo apt-key add -
Doing so return this:
Code:
gpg: invalid key resource URL '/tmp/apt-key-gpghome.AYG58HOID0/network:messaging:xmpp:dino.asc.gpg'
gpg: keyblock resource '(null)': General error
gpg: key 62EB1A0917280DDF: 1 signature not checked due to a missing key
gpg: key 3B4FE6ACC0B21F32: 3 signatures not checked due to missing keys
gpg: key D94AA3F0EFE21092: 3 signatures not checked due to missing keys
gpg: key 871920D1991BC93C: 1 signature not checked due to a missing key
gpg: key 7721F63BD38B4796: 2 signatures not checked due to missing keys
gpg: Total number processed: 10
gpg:       skipped new keys: 10
Afterwards I still can't update and I have no idea what to do.

Edit: For now my workaround is to deactivate the chrome repo in the software list.
