Hello,

I'm not sure if this is the right forum to post this but figured I'd give it a shot.

I should probably start off by saying that I'm pretty much new to Linux so apologize in advance for any missteps.

Basically, I got a Acer Revo R3610 off eBay with the hope of using it as a cheap computer to stream video and do a bit of light browing on. It's running Intel Atom 1.6 and has around 3GB of RAM. Windows 10 ran like an absolute dog so figured I'd switch to Linux.

Navigating around Linux Lite is pretty snappy but loading up a browser (e.g. Firefox) and it gets pretty laggy. YouTube near enough brings things to a crashing halt with CPU usage hitting ~90%.

Have I done something wrong or do I simply have unreasonable expectations of this machine?

System Info -> Summary shows:
Processor      : 4x Intel® Atom™ CPU  330  @ 1.60GHz
Memory      : 2821MB (1067MB used)
Operating System      : Linux Lite 3.0
Resolution      : 1360x768 pixels
OpenGL Renderer      : ION/integrated/SSE2
X11 Vendor      : The X.Org Foundation
-Multimedia-
Audio Adapter      : HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia
-SCSI Disks- ATA TOSHIBA MK1652GS

Any advice much appreciated.

how to install the printer software on linux lite?

I have old PC in my room and it running Windows XP Pro edition is not greats to do like watching video and etc. This PC is from my Father that he buy in 2002 or so. It made in japan and still in good quality. So i decide to use this PC for my main NAS network and trying to get faster os that availble. I try many thing and it not good and it not so bad. Usualy i get lag when trying connect to internet this pc will start to slow down. Navigate to folder will take 5sec to 6sec.

Then i founds Linux Lite OS, First design similar like Linux Mint i trught i will get same result like last time i try. Then it turn out to be "WOW!" It runing like a boss. Boots very fast. Take about 8sec to 9 sec. This old PC from 2002 or so and i try ubuntu it take 18 sec to 22 sec. same result with Windows XP. I'm so happy that i download this OS.

After install i saw all application that i need is availble in this OS. VLC Player, Libra Office, GParted, Gimp and etc.

That is my review/feedback for this OS.
I give 4.8/5 for my personal opnion.

Just install Linux Lite OS 3.x, Nice to be here.  ;D

I've made three unsuccessful attempts to install the driver nvidia-361.42 in Linux 3.0 from the Install Drivers GUI.  It just occurred to me that nvidia-361 might not be compatible with the kernel 4.4.0-34-generic which is in LL3.0 - is this the case? 

If there is an incompatibility issue, could someone tell  me which nvidia drivers are compatible with this kernel.

Many thanks
Mike

Hello I'm currently running Linux lite 2.8 which is doing very well, I have try to install 3.0 with no luck is there anyway for me to upgrade using the terminal if so how would I proceed with the upgrade

Thanks so much

Following installation of LL3.0 in set-up (1) in signature below, I clicked on Install Drivers to update the video card from the existing 'Nouveau display driver' to 'Nvidia driver version 361.42 from nvidia-361 (proprietary, tested)'.

However the progress bar under Install Drivers hung indefinitely at four-fifths completion.  I restarted the PC, and then went to open Synaptic Package Manager. However this would not open properly and I got the screen message that I should run the following command:

Tips For Using The Samba And Remmina rdp Setup, Adding Double Commander to Linux Lite

          Today I am going to briefly reiterate setting up Samba to have administrative access to your Windows 10 home computer from Linux Lite, as I realized I never really completely posted on the subject. Basically follow the Linux Lite help manual exactly, and go ahead and add a share folder, which we can use for later setups, but won’t need for this setup. Make workgroup = Homegroup. *Make sure the administrative account you intend to use on your Windows 10 box is added to homegroup. Make sure to allow network discovery and all file sharing in Windows 10 homegroup in the private network tab.
         
          If you have all that done, (check back through the rdp tutorial for share settings in windows) when you open Thunar for the first time, click the >Browse Network tab on the lower left panel. Do not click the >Windows Network icon. Backspace out the address bar instead, and type in smb:// “the IP address of your Windows 10 computer”, and hit enter. When prompted for the user name and password, backspace out your Linux Lite samba user name, and type in the administrative account user name on your windows 10 computer that you previously added to homegroup. Leave homegroup listed as is and add the password and hit enter. Select >Users from the files that appear, and repeat the same process as above when prompted for user name and password hitting enter again. Open the user name that matches the one you logged in as. All your windows files should be there now. If this doesn’t work review the Windows 10 setup, (check back through the rdp tutorial for share settings in windows).

Installing Double Commander in Linux Lite

          Open Synaptic in Linux Lite >Menu>System>Install and Remove Software. Set to >All in the left menu. Type “double commander” in the search box. Mark the GTK2 double commander package for installation. Agree to mark the dependencies. Click >Apply from the upper menu bar, and double commander will install. Log out and reboot your computer.

          Open Thunar as above loading your Windows files. Close Thunar leaving the Windows drive mounted. Open your Windows 10 remote desktop with Remmina. Open its Double Commander setting the left pane to drive C: and the right pane to drive L:. Now open Double Commander on a second desktop in Linux Lite so you can switch back and forth. Be patient it may take ten seconds or so to load the first time. Set the left hand pane to your home directory, the second symbol to the left of the little arrow in the upper right of the pane “~”. In the right pane click >gvfs. Click the directory entry that appears and reads something like “samba server with your Windows 10 computer’s IP address”, not the Workgroup directory. Your Windows 10 file system will open for navigation. Now switch back to your remote desktop and drag and drop a Linux file into Windows (L: drive to C: drive, right to left pane) from the Linux Lite 3.0 partition that dual boots with Windows 10. Pick a document or png the first time to test. Now switch back to your Linux Lite desktop and drag the same file from Windows 10 (the gvfs pane) into your Linux Lite home directory and open it to test it. With appropriate editors and applications you can now move and work on files from all three systems with ease.
