Hello, All!

When installing LL on my Samsung laptop, I noticed that the touchpad jumped all over the place.

I stumbled on a fix elsewhere which was rather hard to find, so thought I'd put it here, also. Here's what you do:

1. Open a terminal window with [CTRL-ALT-T]. Type or cut-and-paste this line:

Hello, All!

Just finished putting LL amd64 on my Samsung RV515 laptop. Had an issue with the volume control adjustment not functioning.

MY fix: Deleted installed volume control applet and installed it again from the Add menu - the one pointing to xfce4-mixer.
(Or one could just change the file that's called to 'xfce4-mixer' in Properties.).

The BEST fix: Click on the link in the reply...

The audio worked out of the box - it just wouldn't let me turn the volume up or down. The audio never worked at ALL in Lubuntu (LXDE) on this pup!

Hope this helps someone on down the line!

Hi.
I have Linux Lite installed alongside Vista Ultimate.
I have installed the drivers for our printer, a Brother DCP-135C, unfortunately the print image is not in the correct position on the printed page.
The printed image is so high that when using Times-Roman 12 font, only half of the top line of text is printed on the top edge of the page.
The  header/footer and margins are appropriately set.
Does any one have a suggestion?

Regards...

Hello.

My laptop seems to get quite hot during use and the fan doesn't seem to kick in as it used to when I ran Windows.

I've googled the problem and it seems quite a common problem with Linux. I'm hoping some one here can help me out.

I have an HP DV6 Pavilion. The fan is OK as if I shut down Linux, reboot, and break into the BIOS, the fan starts up as it used to in Windows and attempts to cool things down.

Thanks for any help.

After installing the last round of updates, I lost my extended desktop, and when I try to open Catylist, I get a message that no supported card is installed. "Install drivers'" comes up with a blank window, while my Radion HD4200 intigrated graphic chip shows if I run sudo lshw -C display in a terminal window. It is not listed under system information. HELP!

I looked at Linux 10 years ago and it just wasn't ready for me then :  Because I couldn't get everything to work right without a struggle it was easier to stick with Windows...

Having become increasingly fed up with my Lappy running hot, slow & crashing I decided that because my machine was only 3 years old I would have a look at something more resource friendly.

Having got on well with some other Open Source software - OpenOffice, Firefox & Thunderbird to name a few - I decided to revisit Linux and I discovered Linux Lite. At first it appeared to work right out of the box. But, I never got the WiFi to work properly and no one on here could help me with it, so I've ended up with Ubunto 14.04 instead and it is absolutely brilliant.
My initial plan was to Dual Boot. But, I soon got rid of my Windows install and 6 months down the line I now know that I will never use another MS product again.

Although I couldn't stay with Linux Lite, part of the experience of trying it made me more determined to stick with Linux.

THANKS GUYS!

So I'm well into changing features on my OS, and was wondering about the boot splash screen?

Now I know there's a panel that you can change the splash screen and I have done so but it doesn't seem to be the part I want to change.  I figure the definition of a boot splash screen is the one that is viewed when the OS is booting up, however, I get the plain looking grey one with the loading bar - that is really dull in my opinion - and then the boot splash screen I chose loads up just before my desktop wallpaper appears.

I'm fine with the plain command-line interface of Grub (where I choose OS to boot up right), it's just the ugly grey one that appears before this I would like to change?

Answers would be appreciated thanks.  Also, my screen resolution is 1024 by 768 on XP and would like the same on Linux but I'm not given the option (it's only an ever so slight cut off at the top of my screen) not bothered so much, so I don't think I'll create a new topic.  However, shouldn't I be able to change it, it seems only to allow 1024x576.

The XFCE Weather Applet no longer updates and as a result it is no longer able to fetch data.
Here is the fix:

In a couple months, Windows XP is going out of support. Since this is a Linux forum, we would recommend you go to Linux Lite, as that has about the same requirements as Windows XP.
