Hello everyone, my name's Nickman and I've seen a few reviews of Linux Lite and I found it very nice, what Jerry and the team are doing is great.

I'm planning to do a little project with my HP Mini 110-1100 and install a Linux distro on it as opposed to having Windows 7 Starter on it, I plan to use it for college, writing essays and taking notes on it, things like that, nothing too extensive since it's around 8 years old and only has a 32 bit processor, it's a Intel Atom and has 2.70 Ghz, it has 1.00 GB of installed ram, though it may have more and I might not realize it.

I have a few questions

1. What are the differences between Linux Lite, Peppermint 7 and MX-16?
2. I understand that UEFI is not supported as of yet, or at least won't be until it is tested and confirmed to work sometime after the Diamond 4.0 release in June 2018, I'd have to disable UEFI on the computer for Linux lite to work correct?
3. Would I be able to print from a Canon MG 7720 printer or not since the computer is old?

Greetings

I am not a big fan of conky or cairo dock. Thus I try to get the looks of them with the help of panels. Unfortunately inactive windows do not cover panels.
With all windows reduced I gained very pleasing results. However, as soon as a window that covers a panel is set inactive, the result does not look nice.
Is there any way that inactive windows cover panels as well?

Update: inactive windows do not hide "intelligently hidden panels either. I abandon this topic.

Hi,
I have to install LinuxLite 64bits on some PC in my office, but the installer is blocked on "System installation" step; i need to know if it is possible to fix that or i can install another distro?

Why is it that after I installed 3.4 I went to install the update files and I got this message:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Linux Lite Updates couldn't fetch the package cache information lists.

Cannot check for updates!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have tried several times now, yesterday and today to get these to install.
What do I need to do?

I have unsuccessfully searched this forum and the internet with DuckDuckGo for a solution.

The volume control icon in the notification area of my XFCE panel has disappeared. In Add New Items the Notification Area is there but grayed out so I can not add a new one or modify my current one. I added PulseAudio Plugin but prefer the XFCE Volume Control. Has the PulseAudio Plugin replaced the XFCE plugin? If not, how do I get the XFCE one back?

Hello....yesterday my update on linux lite 3.4 stopped and I shut my pc down....when I tried to update I got the following message:

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dkpg --configure - a' to correct the problem

I have tried all sorts of commands...but the system keeps telling me I am not doing what is needed..... could one of you computer gurus tell me the words to type.... thanks....Keller

Just tried a little experiment.

A clean install of LL 3.4x64

This was a manual install with 50g allocated to / and 250g allocated to /home......no Swap

System fully installed and updated.

I run you tube and when checking htop it was using less than 1g of ram.

System ram is 4g.

Do we really need swap.....?.

In trying to leave dual-boot status and become LL-only, I made a live ISO with Systemback and reinstalled.
Only problem is it made no swapfile, tho the ZRAM does seem to be nearly enough. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Note: I tried to use GParted to add a small partition formatted swapfile, but it doesn't want to recognize the partition on boot.
Maybe there is a terminal command to get this recognized permanently? Or maybe there is a program that makes a dynamic
swapfile, should the need arise?
