Hi, this is my first post here... I just installed this distro a few days ago and am loving it, so far. But I have a few concerns which I will address in various posts.

I'm just curious since I found KDEConnect in the synaptic software manager... is there ANY way to get it to work in Linux Lite even though this is not a KDE distro?

It would be so great if this would work! I usually run KDE OS's and already I miss this feature. But the Linux Lite distro out of MANY is one that is the least problematic
running on my system, even though my system isn't THAT old.

Any ideas on how to get KDEConnect to run on this distro... again, would be great!

I'd like to dual boot Linux Lite 3.2 on my new MacBookPro, which uses EFI (and doesn't seem to have a "legacy bios"). Has anyone done this before? Can anyone give me some advice on getting LL setup, I read in various posts that the EFI can cause install issues.

So far I have set the machine up using this tutorial:

http://www.howtogeek.com/187410/how-to-i...-on-a-mac/

but have yet to attempt a LL install. Just wanted to know if I was in for trouble or not...

For the past few days I've been getting errors when installing software. Something about root privileges. In each case, though, the software seems to install ok anyway.

The next time you get an updated package for the Help Manual, there will be a new and important tutorial covered - Setting a Restore Point using Systemback. This will also appear in the 3.4 Lite Welcome as one of the first 3 things you should do after Install Updates and Install Drivers from a fresh install.

Got a call from a friend this morning running linuxlite 2.8x64.

The chrome browser was frozen with ransomeware.

He told me openly he had been at some "Adult Sites"

He does not have sudo access to the system...Only I have.

First thought was to remove chrome and re-install the browser.

Decided in the end to reformat and install Linuxlite 3.2

Not something you see every Day.

Recently got this on e.bay for cleaning.

Not cheap......nearly £40.

Certainly does the job very well

Epson Perfection V500 flatbed scanner worked fine in LL2 series but not with LL3 series.
Output from terminal is as follows:

Alright, I'm a new Linux user and can't be happier with how Linux Lite has breathed new life into my formerly unusably slow laptop...

EXCEPT, I can't get the wireless to show up.

After trying to find new drivers (I didn't) I've done a bit of snooping around here for solutions and ran rfkill and got the following:

0: acer-wireless: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no

Which says to me that my Wireless LAN should be working, right? Yet when I click my internet connections, the wired option is the only one that appears.

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

If it helps the output from inxi -n is:
Network:  Card-1: Broadcom BCM4401-B0 100Base-TX driver: b44
          IF: eth0 state: up speed: 100 Mbps duplex: full
          mac: 00:16:d4:a8:c7:e5
          Card-2: Broadcom BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller
          driver: b43-pci-bridge
          IF: N/A state: N/A mac: N/A

It's great to see all these new kernels coming down through Install Updates. Makes me feel like my system is stronger for it.

Was at the Dentist yesterday for a six month check.

While I was in the chair the dentist booted up his computer to get my dental records.

It was running Windows XP .

How many organisations are still running obsolete operating systems........With your personal data on them.  :o :o :o
