Good day to you all. Sorry for my English, i`m from Ukraine. I have a problem with my printer HP LaserJet m1132MFP on Linux Lite 5.0. I simply can not make him work. I tried to install HPLIP via terminal and by downloading deb package from official HP web-site but nothing worked so far. Can anyone tell me how to fix it. On LL4.0 everything worked good.

Does anyone know if you can transfer photos from your iphone straight onto linuxlite?


(I am a novice user)


Thanks for reading.

Hello everyone! I'm a beginner Linux user who mostly got into Linux because I needed a reliable computer for work, and all I have are dinosaurs who can't run windows 10.

I've successfully installed Linux Lite 4.8 on a Fujitsu Lifebook (with 250gb HDD, and 4gb RAM), and have been using it for work and recreation for the past 2 weeks. However, when I initially installed Linux Lite (I opted to dual boot as it is my first install of any Linux OS), I only allotted 90gb to it because I thought I would have to use Windows more. Now, I find that I almost exclusively use Linux (The performance improvement is just amazing) and would like to reduce some of the memory from Windows and give it to LL. I have a basic understanding of partitioning since learning Linux has been my recent obsession but I am not knowledgeable enough to risk re-partitioning the HDD.

Thank you!

TL;DR Dual booting Windows 10 and Linux Lite: how to reduce Windows' disk size and add more to Linux.

So I was at Costco and decided to try Linux Lite 5.0 to see if everything worked (wifi being the most important)
I picked an HP, I-7, with nvdia  graphics card, 16 gig of memory and a 512 gig of ss storage to boot up LL 5.0 from my USB.
It took just as long to boot up as my old laptop at home!! I was surprised to think that a new hot machine would not make it boot in a flash.
Does anyone have comments on why it takes LL so long to boot on old or new??

Hi Linux Lite community,
I am new to linux
I hope you are doing all well. I have a problem I cant open my lenovo external hard disk drive in my computer its a 1TB hard drive whenever i try to open my hard drive its show this error

                                        Failed to open directory "1234-5678".
                            Error when getting information for file "/media/nakib/1234-5678/-

Has anyone experienced an annoying graphical glitch when using Linux Lite's native update utility ('Install Updates')?

I've experienced this same glitch / bug in the past when running the 4 series and now it's happening again with LL 5.0. I've never experienced this issue with LL 3.8, which I'm still running as my main driver, and I've never had any other graphical problems or bugs with Linux Lite - it's that good. I'd like to move over to the 5 series permanently before the year is out, but would like to solve this issue before doing so.

To best explain this glitch / bug, I've posted the following images to illustrate the problem -



1. The updates are fetched and displayed as per normal.




2. 'Downloading - Please wait' - graphical horizontal moving bar window appears.




3. Glitch - graphical horizontal moving bar window blinks out and disappears as quickly as it first appears.




4. Empty screen follows - no graphical confirmation of progress and that updates are being installed and working.


When this first happened, I thought the updates had failed and tried to run the process again but was locked out and told that another process was working in the background.

What I discovered later was that the updates were still downloading and installing in the background, but I only realized this later when the 'Updates Successful' window finally popped-up.

I've tried to solve this bug by running Lite Tweaks 'Package System Repair' utility but this didn't help. I've also checked for broken dependencies in Synaptic but it tells me there are none.

Any suggestions about how to fix this small but annoying graphical glitch would be gratefully appreciated.

Thanks in advance for any help provided.

Getting this error when updating my Linux Lite 5.0

plz help

Hi Folks,
Newbie to LL, also a newbie since the early unix systems but never really became very conversant with them.
Using LL to revitalize an oldish laptop.

Certainly faster than W10 :-) 

Standby for questions .....

i'm using Linux Lite 5.0, there is no "lite Upgrade" to upgrade within a series.
linux lite 4.8 has it in settings, but not 5.0.

i have a desktop 64bit computer.
plus in Power management, i set my computer to go blank after 15 minutes, and it wont do it, my computer monitor stays on, and yes the setting is in the on position.

the computer down stairs has Linux lite 4.8(64bit) and the "power Management" works fine.

I have a strange problem. I use an older computer that I have upgraded to store all of my videos. All are played with VLC as per Linux Lite software.
If I open any of my MP4 videos,the first frame is shown and never plays any moving video images.The first frame stays on and the audio plays in a normal manner. Any of my videos will play on my other LL OS computers with no issues.
This computer does not have a built in video port, the output is on the GeForce card. Nothing in BIOS shows a selection for graphic outputs. Resetting BIOS does not help. MB has latest drivers/firmware.
Any video on Youtube plays just fine.
