  SOLVED - Wrong password add user to group
Posted by: South_Oz - 05-04-2014, 12:19 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (7)

HI, I'm trying to install myth-tv. I have to add my user to the myth-tv group. I enter my password and it says 'wrong password'. It is NOT the wrong password.
This thing was solved on another computer once a while ago, but I can't for the life of me remember exactly how.
It had something to do with something using su instead of sudo for verification (I may have that the wrong way around) and there was a graphic window involved.
I have searched and searched and not gotten anywhere.
Please help me :-[

  Re-installing Xarchiver; Fixing broken filter in Synaptic Package Manager
Posted by: dayooper - 05-04-2014, 12:48 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (7)

I completely removed Xarchiver in Synaptic Package Manager so that I could install latest version of Xarchiver. Big mistake! After downloading the latest version of Xarchiver, I could not extract the files. Tried to re-install older version of Xarchiver in Lite Software Manager and received error message. Then tried to re-install Xarchiver in Synaptic Package Manager and also received error message that all files could not be retrieved.

Closed down and re-opened Synaptic Package Manager. Dialogue box stated that there was a broken filter in this program. Followed instructions to fix broken packages but it didn't work. Help!

  connectivity problems
Posted by: ReH3565 - 05-02-2014, 11:36 PM - Forum: Network - Replies (7)

I just downloaded linuxlite. I had no problem with internet connectivity using an ethernet cable but my wireless network wasn't recognized. I searched for additional drivers to get my Broadcom wireless activated, downloaded the driver, and now neither wireless nor wired internet will work. How have I messed up?

  PAE Kernel question
Posted by: joejohnston3 - 05-02-2014, 11:20 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (7)

Hi All,

Do I need to install the PAE Kernel under additional software with Linux Lite 1.0.8 or does it automatically use a PAE Kernel if it detects one during install? System Info seemed to show a newer Kernel then the one used through the PAE install so I am confused and need some clarification on what to use. Thank you.

  Format USB stick
Posted by: dennus - 05-02-2014, 08:59 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (4)

Hi all!

Is there a simple way to format an USB stick?  In the newer Linux Mint there is a tool called MintStick. Any change of that one coming over to Linux Lite?

I must say, in the years past I have been trying several versions of Linux on my laptop...  Ubuntu, Mint, Arch etc.  But I find Linux Lite to be the fastest :-)

  Acer C720 Touchpad
Posted by: HarryFarthing - 05-01-2014, 01:48 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (6)

There are a few guides and patches out there. Some of them are for Arch, and some are for Ubuntu. I haven't managed to get one working (I assume this has something to do with the different version of ubuntu and/or Linux kernel).

Has anyone here managed to get the touchpad working on Linux Lite? I really don't want to use standard Ubuntu, and I REALLY don't want to use Arch.

I'd appreciate it if anyone could help out.

  Wireless not connecting after reboot
Posted by: ooseven - 04-30-2014, 08:35 AM - Forum: Network - Replies (7)

I installed 1.08 on  a acer aspire 3000 for a friend. I have to make a network connection
and it works till I reboot. It is set to connect automatically. It does not show up in the
network icon down by volume. When open the VPN connection it is in there.

But does not start or even let me click on it to connect. Never had this problem bfore,
had install drivers before but not this.
