For starters, I'm a longtime window guy with enough Linux to be dangerous.

I just put Linux-Lite on an old Toshiba laptop -- W10 was insufferable -- and am now delighted.
Installation went without a hitch -- of course I had to do some research -- and customization and configuration was a delight.

So thanks to the LL team!

But, there always is one -- I have some issues with performance -- it seems to vary from time to time -- and am wondering which section to post in regarding that. I'm just starting to wander about the forums ...

Any suggestions would be greeted favorably ...

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
Tried running updates and got this error message.

I generally setup dual boot UEFI Windows and Linux using onboard Windows tools these days, (which I will not give advice on here on this forum) but I noticed the other day that this (grub2win) open source software has been updated recently enough now. I currently do not have a Windows 10 machine available (one I want to shut down) that I want to tinker with. Would any of you be interested in testing this on a Windows 10 UEFI machine and attempting a dual boot with LL? Below is the download link. It could prove to be a simpler solution for UEFI booting. There are no tutorials, but there is exstensive help info inculded with the application.

I have 3.6 on my laptop and have been trying to install a wireless trackball with no success. I have a Logitech M570 and the installation prog is (of course) an .exe file. I've tried running it with Wine but can't get it to go. Any suggestions?

I need to make the fonts bigger in "install updates."
The list is too small for my liking.

Any way to do that?


Thanks

Good morning to everybody.
I would like to personalize my LL and I noted that when booting, it appears a centered image of a feather on a yellow background. Could I know where this image ( I suppose a .png) is located in order to substitute it with a personalized image?
Thanks

This is a newbie question, sorry.
ASUS X54C laptop, Linux Lite 3.4 and 3.6 (both 32-bit).

EVERY time I Shutdown the system via the Logout [user] screen the machine automatically restarts with the short typical delay I would expect after I click on Restart. How can I stop this behavior?

If this question has been asked before I apologize; please point me to the correct remedy, thank you.

It's well known on this forum that many of us love Systemback's simplicity and would ideally like to continue using it. However,  it will be apparently unsupported at some time in the future. I have some question about this:

1. When does official support for Systemback end - i.e. for how long can we continue to use it safely? For the duration of LL3 series? What about LL4?

2. Has anyone stepped-in to unofficially support Systemback?

3. Given the good malware resistance of Linux generally, what are the likely risks for home-users continuing to
    use Systemback?

Hi, on my notifications it said "Kernel notice: you have 6 kernels installed. You may like to remove 4 using Lite Tweaks." (or something to that effect). I tried to find something about this in forums, but haven't had any luck. My questions are:
1). How did these 6 kernels get installed? I don't remember doing anything to specifically install extra kernels. I installed LL 3.4 then upgraded to 3.6. Does it install extra kernels as part of this process?
2). As per the recommended action, I looked in Lite Tweaks about this. It lists Kernel Remover as a task categorized as "Caution".  This makes me a little nervous. Is it indeed safe for me to go ahead and run the kernel remover?

Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Hi everyone! Hope you're all having a nice life!
I'd like to share this series of PDFs named Command & Conquer Special Editions 1-3  I downloaded a few days ago from full circle magazine site "the independent magazine for the Ubuntu Linux community" and I'm currently on the first pages of book 1. If you do download them I'll be more than happy to share thoughts and doubts with you regarding it's contents so we learn from each other...don't know, just an idea
