I hope I'm in the right place for this question. I have a picture I want to make my background. I've followed the instructions, at least I think I did, but can't get my picture to move from the usb finger drive to the folder that holds the background pictures. At 77 I'm not the sharpest pencil in the box, but I can usually muddle through things and get them to work. I can't seem to quite catch this one.
Thanks,

Hello everyone. I have been using systemback since I upgraded to LL 2.6. Great tool, however
I need to backup TO my Debian home server with SMB share drives. I searched launchpad systemback info for "network backup" and got no results. I see no point in backing up locally, if my HDD fails it is all gone.
Maybe backup then transfer the backup to my server ?
Is this possible or is there an easier/different way that I am missing ?

Hi guys,


I've got a compound problem with the Whisker Menu. I have a portable Windows .exe utility that I store in the /opt hierarchy. I can access and execute it in Thunar with one click without problem. But I didn't want to go looking for it each time, so I opened the Main Menu configurator and added a launcher to it.


The first problem is that the launcher fails with "permission denied". I can't figure that out since it launches from the file manager without elevation.


The second problem is that though I can see the launcher in the Main Menu, it is not present in the configurator, so I cannot edit or delete it.


Any help sorting this out would be appreciated.

Hi Guy's. I need a new photo printer. Have been looking at the Cannon MG4250 all in one. It would suit my needs and the price is not too high. Just £49. But.......How can I make it run on my Linux Lite? I read that Cannon do have the drivers for Linux, so in theory I could do this, but I need assurances before I lash out the £49 to buy it. I am hopeless at downloading and installing drivers. Got LL 2.2 and have still not been able to get it up and running (Sorry Dave) and the thought of trying to coax my Dell Optiplex GX260 to accept this software is keeping me awake nights. I am that scared. At 82 I should be in my golden years, enjoying everything, but I am not. Does anyone have any advice? Is there any member in the Hull area maybe as I am too ill to travel more than a couple of hundred yards. Can I just throw this into the melting pot and hope? Regards Walt

Hello, I do not know how to make python accessible/active. I would like to place it into my main menu of programs, but how do I do this?
Sorry if this is not clear enough, I am new to Linux & appreciate any help & education.

Thanks, jola

Sorry, I left (but bounded to come back someday).  I booted LL 2.6 and wifi didn't work OOTB - I know, I know, add the driver - and got lazy and booted up + installed Korora 22.
LL is a great distro - you are bounded to see me again as I tend to distro-hop every year or so.

Hi,

Grretings from Rio.

I´m very new to Linux (just installed it). I´m having trouble using WiFi.

I do detect my network (the SSID appears between the available connections), i even enter my password, but that´s it. The system "loops" asking for the password over and over again and does not connect, unless I use the cable.

I´m using Windows 7 right now, because i´m also having trouble with my keyboard when using Linux Lite (but i will leave it to another topic)

My wi fi adapter is Realtek RTL8187B

The notebook is  CCE Win Series ( dont even know if these are sold abroad)

You probably need more than that to help me, right?

Well, I tried. Sorry for the bad English and thanks in advance.
