Wiped my laptop clean and installed LL 6.0 to test before upgrading main computer.

All seems to work ok except for the installation of the VMWare Horizon Client which worked before.

I did the usual chmod a+x [bundle file name]

Then sudo ./ [Bundle file name]

I enter the password then get extracting VMWare Installer

I then get the VMWare screen that says Installation Failed.

I tried downloading the latest client from  https://customerconnect.vmware.com/en/do...rPId=87916

But no luck...

Any ideas?

1) This version is by far the prettiest yet. The default wallpaper is beautiful. I would like an optional version of that wallpaper without the yellow feather, just the gray shadow feather edges. When you run the widget with the background feather logo it's just too much of the yellow feather on the desktop. I think it would look quite nice then with just the widget feather.

2) I would like to see a discussion here by some of the experts on replacing Chrome with MS Edge with all the proper steps concerning updates, dependencies, etc. so that new users would have access as to what to do to remove Chrome completely and use MS Edge or even Edge dev instead without causing issues later on with their system and updates. 

3) The same goes for Thunderbird. On the subject of mail it's worth noting that the ncurses installer for system mail did not function correctly in the XFCE terminal in the 5.0 series but I haven't tried it yet on 6.0.

4) I noticed that Thunar uses normal yellow warning stripe about root, but when you open a file with root with mousepad it uses the default Debian pink color for the warning stripe. I'm sure it's just an XFCE oddity someone missed.
5) I'm going to thoroughly use this system as time goes on and look for quirks because I think it is the best one so far.

With help from user WytWun (thanks again!) I've got LL 5.8 running on my 2016 2 GB RAM Ideapad. I really like it It's not a big deal, but I'm curious if you have tips for lowering memory use so programs open faster. I can look in TaskManager, but I'm not sure what some of the running processes do, so I hesitate to disable them. I'm not doing much with the laptop beyond office apps, web work, and lightweight apps (hello vim!). I'm not printing, using bluetooth, or anything external to the machine other than wifi.

Thanks!

Ik heb met veel plezier een aantal jaren Linux Lite :045: gebruikt tot MX langskwam. Voor míj was MX net een stapje handzamer omdat er veel tools zomaar beschikbaar zijn, maar vooral voor de snapshot, dus voor het maken van livemedia, waarmee je zonder probleem een Operating System even naar andere (of jouw nieuwe) computers kunt overbrengen (en correct werkend). Het is ook een mooie alternatieve wijze van backup van je systeem naast b.v. Clonezilla. Het gaat bij MX ook bloedsnel. Ik kende de livebackup van het prettige PCLinuxOS, maar die van MX gaat zeer veel sneller. Als Linux Lite ook met zo'n faciliteit komt is dat voor mij een aanbeveling het eventueel weer te gaan gebruiken als day2day werkpaard.

Hi. Just installed a fresh copy of LL 6.0 on a PC for a friend to use to wean them off Windows -;

Installed LL 6.0 and did one update. Kernel now 5.15.0-37-generic

Went to Package Manager to add Firefox and learnt that Ubuntu based distros are now using Snap for FF. Installed Firefox Snap but failed with:

When using volume keys to change the volume, two volume indicators appear.


I know there already was a topic regarding this but the fix (turning off xfce4 volume notifications) completely disabled volume indicators for me.

How do I disable Package Update Indicator? It makes my firefox crash alot of times when it indicate some updates  :dft007:

Apply this workaround now if you plan to remove kernels in the 6.0 release - https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/secur...l-remover/
Fix coming hopefully in 6.2 Lite Upgrade. Fix already applied for the 6.2 ISO release.

Hi, everyone! Hope you're all having a nice life!

I wanted to bookmark a thread, but I don't see any button/option to do that. I've bookmarked threads in the past, but it's been a while since I last did it and don't remember how or what I need to do. So, could anyone please be so gentle to tell/remind me how I can bookmark threads? Thanks.
