I haven't got a clue on fixing this or why he did not post it himself on this forum. I am sure someone here will have the answer.  8)

  Replacing VLC
Posted by: Alex - 10-10-2014, 01:10 AM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (3)

I know that most people love this player, I am one of the few that is not enamored with it (for example it is hard to get it to play .mkv files or HD movies)

Is it possible to replace it as the default player with another one on my system?

  Lockup
Posted by: Alex - 10-10-2014, 01:04 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (10)

My system has frozen up/lockedup twice in the last week probably from trying to do too many things at the same time, it's not a worry.

But what the problem is that I really don't know what to do - in Win I used to hit ctrl/alt /delete and there fix the problem. I have tried I few things on LL (ctrl/alt/bckspace etc) but the best result has been a redirection to the terminal...then I have no idea how to proceed.

A GUI interface similar to the one on Win would be helpful to dummies like me...

Folks we are having to move a lot of Topics out of On Topic to the appropriate Support section.

Please use either:


[size=2em]Software - Support[/size]


or:


[size=2em]Hardware - Support[/size]


for Linux Lite Support.

  [SOLVED] Mounting Puzzle
Posted by: bobw - 10-09-2014, 12:28 PM - Forum: Hard Drives and SSDs - Replies (3)

I am mounting an external hard drive with the label CNM DRIVE, which I use for local backups.  When I mount it by right-clicking the desktop icon or by navigating to it in Thunar, it is mounted with a path that includes a folder named CNM DRIVE. For instance, this is the path to the drive's Documents folder:
/media/bobw/CNM DRIVE/Documents/

I cannot find a way of replicating this mount using a command line in the terminal or the root crontab.  When I mount it this way, I get, for instance, the path:
/media/bobw/Documents/

I want the path to be consistent (preferably including the CNM DRIVE folder).  Can anybody help, please?

  Rolling stone
Posted by: LinuxNoob - 10-09-2014, 10:41 AM - Forum: Introductions - Replies (5)

Found my home. Dammit I just keep coming back to Lite. I love the little linux distro. Fits me like a glove. I feel like I am the master of my domain. Does anyone know what I'm saying?

I Started Ubuntu 10.10 years ago and that was so disappointing. No not at the distro or even the Linux as an OS. I just had no clue what I was getting into. I think I broke it that same night. I was so clueless.

Gone back to Win7 for a few more years and saw a youtube video and that peaked my interest again. By that time I was gonna trying Ubuntu 14.04 and this time after watching a few hundred bash and distro install videos I decided to give Ubuntu another go. This time I managed to keep it going for over a month with out breaking it. Unity was fun but I got sick of it fast.

So I came across a few more reviews and found Linux Lite. I liked it and played with it a few days. Burnt me a CD and still wanted to see the others.

Tried to install Open Suse and I think something went wrong and bailed. Went back to Lite.

Few weeks later thought I try something else. Starting to figure this stuff out.

I  tried Linux mint KDE and I liked it but so much eye candy and stuff to play with and adjust. I did not like the Activities thingy and the different types of desktops and all I wanted was to put icons on the desktop. So I bailed on that but kept the disk.

Back to Lite

Tried some Jeos and did not get far with that at all. Tried FreeBSD NOPE never even got it installed.

I thought I should have to try Red Hat too but it seems like thats not a free distro.

Back to Lite. Think I'll stay a while.

Sorry for the long post....

Found this feature today...added a little something Lite-ish and produced this effect. Appears better on a solid black backround.
