I have Linux Lite 3.8 32-bit, 2 GB of RAM, 250 GB hard drive. The account I am logged in on has "sudo" checked in the user rights list.
I am unable to see a shared network drive from my Linux Lite computer. Specifically, I am sharing one of the hard drives in my other computer, so that that drive is the network drive for all computers in the house. That computer is running Linux Mint 18.2 64-bit, and is running Samba to share the drive. When Linux Mint 32-bit was installed on this computer, I could see and access the shared drive. But since installing Linux Lite, I can no longer see that drive.
A couple of other issues, which may be related:
* I can't mount a USB flash drive. (plugdev is checked)
* When I click the icon for "Install Updates", it tells me, "Your computer is not connected to the internet. Linux Lite cannot check for updates. Please check your internet connection and try again."
I can print to a network printer, and I can surf the web, on this computer. (I am surfing the web right now, typing this in from the computer in question.)
Perhaps there is a setting change I need to make. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
Jim
