  Bug in reverting the menu
Posted by: cerise - 04-02-2014, 05:00 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (2)

I clicked on the revert button to reset my menu - but it did not go back to the original state as it was during and after installation. Instead, the "Install Updates" disappeared and the icons for the first 3 submenus for System went missing.

  Install Updates - Terminal
Posted by: Coastie - 04-02-2014, 03:43 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (6)

:-\ After reading post about users losing their menu items, Linux Lite installed modified desktop, and warnings from Valtam about resetting menu I wonder about the Install Updates - Terminal. Some of the updates I can see are from Jerry Bezencon (Valtam) but some but some are from Ubuntu and some I do not reconize. Are all updates offered by this program from or screened by the Linux Lite Development Team; therefore, safe to do?

I no longer even ask Synaptic to check for update dues to be concerned about messing up Linux Lite.

  Version Lock Does Not Work With a dist-upgrade
Posted by: leegold - 04-01-2014, 07:29 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (2)

Hi,

In Synaptic Software manager I lock a version of gqview, it appears red in Synaptic and seems to indicate it's locked. But when I do a dist-upgrade it updates to geeqie and newer version of gqview.

Is there away when I run upgrade to skip the "upgrade" for gqview or block anything named geeqie?

  Sudoku
Posted by: anrke - 04-01-2014, 02:34 AM - Forum: Games Support - Replies (1)

This is a weird problem and probably not what is really intended by "games support" but I had installed sudoku and it worked a couple of times but now it just doesn't respond when I click on it. i googled it and saw some people had a similar problem but supposedly it was fixed in the latest version. Any ideas? I can see launchpadintegration on the installed list, but this is the error I get when I run the command in the terminal:

Quote:ERROR:root:Could not find any typelib for LaunchpadIntegration
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/games/gnome-sudoku", line 23, in <module>
    start_game()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gnome_sudoku/gnome_sudoku.py", line 21, in start_game
    import main
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gnome_sudoku/main.py", line 9, in <module>
    from gi.repository import LaunchpadIntegration

  Minecraft !!!!
Posted by: brettwiley - 04-01-2014, 12:08 AM - Forum: Off Topic - No Replies

Hey guys. I have put up a Minecraft server and need help getting the word out about it.
As the server grows I will need someone dedicated to being a Admin/Mod and will need more staff as time goes on.
You can earn a position by coming on and playing and being loyal to the server.

The server address is : 192.95.29.141:25708
Thank you. Smile

  Restore XFCE to default
Posted by: brettwiley - 04-01-2014, 12:03 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (9)

I want to restore XFCE back to default. I did this by deleting the XFCE folder in .config. I then logged out and back in and chose the default configuration. But then one of the panels are on the top and a launcher bar is at the bottom. How can i erase the bottom panel and move the one at top to the bottom.

OR

How can I install Mate on here. I have been a long time mate user.

Thanks!  Smile  ;D  8)

  [CLOSED]Software Update - Now Missing From Menu
Posted by: Wirezfree - 03-31-2014, 11:50 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (7)

Hi,

When I 1st installed I'm sure there was the Software Update item in the Menu below run program..?
Actually looking at the on-line manual, that shows "Install Updates" & "Help Manual"
It seems to have disappeared.? I have "Web Browser" & "Mail Reader"

I have done no edits to menu, only changed clock to 24hr mode, and added date.
What did it point at(file) maybe I can re-create/add it back.?

UPDATE: #1
It appears(I think) that the "Names" (Descriptions) changed..??

The item that says "Mail Reader" is pointing at:

Code:
xdg-open /usr/share/doc/xfce4-utils/html/C/index.html
The item that says "Web Browser" is pointing at:
Code:
lxterminal --geometry=95x25 -e ./updates
Working Directory = /usr/scripts

So I could change the "Names" , But why did they change..??

UPDATE: #2
After another test, in Virtualbox, It appears changing Locale from US to GB causes the change

Thanks ... Dave

  Linux Lite Home Server
Posted by: protocol77 - 03-31-2014, 08:34 PM - Forum: Off Topic - Replies (3)

Would Linux Lite work as a home server currently i am running Windows 7 as my home server OS as i cannot afford nor want to spend several hundred dollars on purchasing the Windows Server OS so i was thinking of testing out linux for a server OS but as i am noob with linux i want something simple to setup i am not comfortable or used to the command line yet so i need a gui and programs to help me get setup with things like Samba, and mounting NTFS drives (i have too much stuff to copy off an d formant to ext4 plus like the ability to use drives in my windows computers if needed so want to stick with NTFS)

has anyone tried it or can recommend it for use as a home server OS or should i try one of the server based distro's instead which seem more complicated i have tried using webmin but too many options so i get confused all i need is simple file sharing and backups also want to install my software for Usenet Downloading
