  Google Earth Video driver problem
Posted by: newtusmaximus - 04-13-2014, 09:45 AM - Forum: Installing Software - No Replies

Toshiba Sat Pro A10 , 2 x 512mb RAM - Video card Intel 82852/855 GM integrated graphics VGA currently at 1024 x 768.

Google earth download from website (32 bit Deb) and installed OK, however on start up says graphics card unsuitable. 
Previously on this machine, when running puppy linux  precise 5.7.1 I have been able to use Xorg wizard to update driver so that GE works with no problems.

As a LL 1.09  and linux newbie, how do I do that now.  Thank you

  Can't access Windows Vista - boot menu
Posted by: parvind - 04-13-2014, 03:21 AM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - Replies (5)

Hello,
  I have windows vista and in a rush I installed Linux Lite while running ISO from CD and created partition following the instructions.

Now, I don't know how to access Windows Vista as I did not do backup. I chose "add this OS in addition to existing" while installing. So for sure, Vista is not deleted.

I installed Grub Customizer and customized to see other operating system, but I don't see Windows Vista in the list. Any help is sincerely appreciated.

Thanks,
Arvind

  Trying to connect Epson printer
Posted by: Bromax2 - 04-12-2014, 06:19 PM - Forum: Printing and Scanning - Replies (11)

I am trying to connect my Epson "Small-in-one" printer. I went to http://www.openprinting.org/printer/Epso...410_Series and tried to download x86 32 bit: 1.0.0 (DEB for LSB 3.2), which I am assuming is the right package, but cannot get a connection, I could, however, open the install instructions, (Not sure I understand about "Installing the LSB package" first) but regardless, ll can't do the download. Any suggestions?

  Hello From England
Posted by: newtusmaximus - 04-12-2014, 11:05 AM - Forum: Introductions - Replies (2)

Just found Linux lite. Have old Toshiba Satellite pro A10 with 2 x 512mb Ram. that needs to keep working!! Trying linuxlite 1.08 as live CD.  Currently running puppy linux precise 5.7.1 frugal on it.

Still fumbling my way around Linux. Currently running Mint 13 on work laptop.

Well worth the learning curve to be free of rampant commercialisation in now what is becoming essential access to information - i.e the internet.  Also the improved security against viruses etc.

Good luck with the linuxlite project for a more straight forward and backwards compatible flavour of linux.

  Wifi Seems Less Powerful Compared to Other OS
Posted by: leegold - 04-11-2014, 06:13 AM - Forum: Network - Replies (1)

I have laptop with Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AG. When an access point is close both LL1.06 and Win7 (dual boot on this laptop) work OK. But I consistently find that for weaker signals Win7 will "pull it in" and I will have a usable WiFi connection. LL will say it's trying to get the ip address (both OS use DHCP not static) and if it does linkup the connection is much slower and often not usable, then I try Win7 and it works OK. Same laptop, same everything.

Note: I prefer wicp to mange the network connections vs. Network Manager, and use wicp with LL. I prefer wicp's interface immensely more then NM.

I wondered if there's and way for LL to equal Win7's more powerful settings(?) for the wifi? Thanks.

  ? about the 256 colors.
Posted by: SweetAction22 - 04-10-2014, 08:22 PM - Forum: Games Support - No Replies

I'm trying to get Warcraft II to work... I installed it, and read in Wine what to do for the game... don't really quite get it though.
Anyways, map editor works, and when i was making a map and selected to preview the map in actual game mode... it said something about 256 colors... I haven't figured out what LL runs on, but from messing around in the Image Editor, I noticed it has alot more than 256 colors....
....In Conclusion,  Tongue
How can i temporarily change the color display to play a game??
