  [SOLVED] Firefox 32.0.3 Flash Plugin Vulnerability
Posted by: dby - 12-13-2014, 08:16 PM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (9)

HI
I'm running LL 2.0 32 bit, which has Firefox 32.0.3 installed. However, it is now out of date and I'm getting warnings about the Flash Plugin being vulnerable and should be updated. Mozilla recommend installation through the repository updates but as these don't seem forthcoming, I'm wondering if it would be wise to update to Firefox 34.0.5 manually and also update the Flash Plugin manually.


I would be happy to read any views on this as Firefox is my prefered browser (Chrome's so sluggish these days).


Regards
dby  :-\

  Round of applause!
Posted by: Monkeyman - 12-13-2014, 04:59 AM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (2)

Just wanted to give Jerry and the other forum members a BIG round of applause for all the help I've received.  I've tried various Linux distros in the past with little success.  If those had the same support that LL has, I probably would have stuck with Linux a long time ago.  I tend to get frustrated and stressed pretty easily but when I installed 2.2 a few hours ago, I felt much less stress than normal mostly because I KNEW, if I had a problem (and I did), I'd get an answer here.

Two thumbs up to the Linux Lite "team"!

  system user name wrong....how to change?
Posted by: Monkeyman - 12-13-2014, 04:28 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (5)

I just installed 2.2 (awesome so far) and when I set my user name, I didn't think to delete the "System-Product-Name" part.  I just typed the user name I wanted.  Now, the terminal knows me as "[me]-System-Product-Name".  Can I change this to just "[me]" without reinstalling?  I'm sure it doesn't affect anything but I have OCD so it bothers me.

(If this is in the wrong sub forum, I apologize.  I wasn't sure where to put it.)[/me][/me]

  Remote "Desktop" & Control Options
Posted by: Wirezfree - 12-13-2014, 03:40 AM - Forum: Tutorials - Replies (9)

Hi All,

Thought I would share this with the group, hope it's understandable.?
I have installed and tested/tried "Teamviewer" and it works really well.
I wanted something a bit "Lite"er for use around my home network.
So after some research, here's what I found and did using repo options.

1. Full Remote Desktop
First Part, On the PC(s) you want to Connect TO and control

Open a terminal Ctrl-Alt-T and type:

Code:
sudo apt-get install vino
sudo apt-get install dconf-editor

You will now have 2 new programs, in the Menu
type: dconf and select dconf-editor
then
type: Desktop and select Desktop Sharing

In dconf-editor navigate to > org > gnome > desktop > remote-access and untick the [X] require-encryption,
just click on the the X at the top of the window to close it.

In Desktop Sharing Preferences set the options shown, you can set a password if you wish, then close it

Open a terminal Ctrl-Alt-T and type:
Code:
ifconfig
and find your IP Address, it will say something like inet addr192.168.1.10
Keep a note of the IP Address for the next part. You can now re-boot the PC

Second Part, On the PC you are going to Connect FROM

Open a terminal Ctrl-Alt-T and type:
Code:
sudo apt-get install vinagre

You now have a new program, Remote Desktop Viewer
in the Menu
type: Remote and select Remote Desktop Viewer and then click on the Connect

You can use these settings but use your IP Address the one you noted above, then press "Connect" button

  K9copy
Posted by: bugfree - 12-13-2014, 02:12 AM - Forum: Installing Software - No Replies

Anyone know how to install K9copy in 2.2. Development is discontinued, but still a great program. Does it need a PPA. Thanks!

BTW, LL is amazing! Best I've used. Boots to desktop in 42 seconds on my Acer I3. Great work from the author!

  After install No Wallpaper - panel on top
Posted by: f.bluedevil - 12-13-2014, 12:46 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (2)

I installed Linux Lite on a USB stick and after using the live session I decided to install it on my laptop.  After I installed it, I was surprised to find a desktop without wallpaper, the panel was top mounted and the menu icon with the standard xfce mouse rather than the Linux Lite icon. 

I installed wallpaper, added a new menu from the panel etc., and everything seems to work fine, but I was surprised that the desktop was totally different from the live session.  Now I am concerned that maybe the iso file was corrupted and there maybe be a price to pay later.  Anybody else experience this/have this problem?  Also, in case you are wondering, I did not check the MD5 sum before installing and yes I know I should have.

Now should I continue on or download a new iso and re-install?

  dual boot order Windows 7 / LL
Posted by: delmar - 12-12-2014, 05:04 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (3)

I was pleasantly surprised how easy to load LL in a dual boot configuration with another operating system but I think I need to do it a little differently on my wife's Windows 7 computer. If I add LL to her machine the way I did it on mine and she presses the power button LL will come up by default. How do I make it so Windows comes up by default so I don't make my wife mad?
