Hey guys it has been a while since i have been on here i have just had life stuff to deal with (you know how that goes) anyways last time i was on here i was using i think 1.06 and i found Linux lite to be on par with Lubuntu as my two favourite linux distro's not just because they are light fast and responsive but also because being a Windows Guy and coming to Linux as a Noob i found them to be the most user friendly.

Now back then because of all the pre-installed stuff and the cool scripts you setup Linux lite did have a slight edge as my favourite but last night in stalled 2.0 in a Virtualbox VM on my Windows 8.1 computer and holy crap this has blown everything else out of the water for me it is just fantastic i like the minimal white look reminds I like things clean and simple none of all that flashy crap that drags down performance you can tell this has been designed for performance and the script setup is even better being able to install almost 30 different application by simply pressing the corresponding number is brilliant i setup teamviewer, xbmc, and chromium and it just saved time and effort having to type these commands in i did have an issue where i had to run an update before i could install some of these but not a big issue was going to update after they were installed anyways


anyways enough blowing smoke I love the new version i am gonna recommend it to people i know who have just had their expired Windows XP computers and looking to upgrade or change


What i was curious about was I would like to learn how to setup a Linux Home File Server but don't want to spend a week learning the commands in just a terminal and not a big fan of Webmin so was thinking seeing as my current server is simply running Windows 7 SP1 why not switch that for Linux Lite i will still have the ease of use of a GUI but it will be hopefully a Lot lighter on resources and also more secure from viruses seeing as a Internet Connection will be on also want to run 24/7 so was wondering if Linux lite would be stable enough to run 24/7 for weeks or possible month on end serving up files and downloading off Usenet (I plan to use NZBDrone and Sabnzbd)

Thought I'd give it a try to see what it's like, so installed it from Package Manager. Everything seemed to go ok, but I can't get to the stage where the menu offering a choice of desktops appears, as I understand it's supposed to appear, before the login screen. The only thing that's different is that the screen briefly flashes white, immediately before the login screen appears, which I assume is when the menu is supposed to appear. Someone on another forum suggested that my problem might be down to auto login being enabled, but trying to disable it using the option in the Menu results in an error. I tried following the advice on this page:

...but there is no lightdm.config in /etc/lightdm , and typing:

A heads-up for anyone looking to install the get_iplayer application.

Installing get_iplayer via the Synaptic Package Manager (Install/Remove Software) resulted in downloads being saved to .flv format.

Installing via PPA* resulted in downloads being saved to .mp4 and .m4a (AAC) formats for video and audio respectively.

Either Synaptic Package Manager is not automatically installing additional dependencies required for encoding, or the get_iplayer version in Ubuntu repositories is out of date or broken.

If you are both downloading and watching/listening on your computer then this is not a problem - VLC and other media players will play .flv files.

But if you plan on playing the downloads elsewhere (TV, mobile devices) then the .mp4/.m4a formats are much more widely supported.

A major new feature has been added to the Help Manual - it is now searchable. This will save people a lot of time by simply entering the information they are looking for. Run Install Updates to get the latest version of the Help Manual. Your computer must be online to get results.

First make sure your wireless cards Driver folder with the LSTINDS.INF file (or what ever your .INF file is) is in your home folder.

Hi, just installed Linux Lite 2.0 on my desktop pc and found a link to this forum in the Help Manual. My previous experience with Linux amounts to having briefly tried Ubuntu then Mint 16, shortly after which the (old) hard drive began to fail, and I was going to install Mint 17 on the new one but decided on Linux Lite 2.0 instead. I have also been using Linux Puppy for a couple of months on my laptop, which motivated me to consider something lighter than Mint for my desktop pc.

Many thanks to the Linux Lite creators!

Hi
I installed LL 1.08 and everything is good other than the wireless LAN connection.
Put simply the available networks are not being listed with the network icon. Only once did the list appear, when I restarted the net service (sudo service network-manager restart), but by the time I had clicked the icon, they had disappeared. The access points are being found as verified by 'sudo iwlist wlan0 scan' which shows many APs including the one I want to connect to. I have tried creating the AP manually, but the status is always connecting, periodically asking for SU password, and AP password, yet always the spinning config anim plays in task bar, yet never connects.
I am running Asus EEEPC 1000HE with the Ath9K driver which seems to be fine. Ifconfig shows all adapters including wlan0, yet no data is transfered or received. I have also tried to connect via CLI using "sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid ESSID key s:MYWLANKEY", but I get an error:
"Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
    SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument."
I am certain the Wireless Key is correct.
The information on the AP shown with the scan is correct, even giving the strength of signal and the available security.
Can anybody help me work this out?
Thanks in advance

Another new Lite user here. Actually I started off with 1.06 and now using 1.08. I installed 2.0 on an 11 yr old Dell Dimension 2400 that I'm configuring for my sister, and my daughters Dell Latitude (7 yrs old).....no glitches, no bumps, no problems. Since switching over to Linux 5 yrs ago, I have stayed in the stable Debian/Ubuntu line with Ubuntu/Mint/Xubuntu and Bodhi.
I've always been about stability and speed. Lite more than delivers. I can use the GUI for anything I need, and still go to the terminal if I choose.

I don't like to jump on the bandwagon, till I've used and tested a disto over a period of months, and read as much feedback and reviews as I possibly can. Well, I am officially on the bandwagon. Great distro!
