hey guys, i cant decide where to go for an webhost i looking at either WPegine or Ghost. i trying to make an Linux Blog.

Hello!  First time reporting a problem.  As a newb, I'll give it my best shot.

WHAT IS HAPPENING:
Three buttons in the Menu are not responding:  "Install / Remove Software" "Partition Drives" and "Firewall" Buttons.  They are not transparent and were all active as of last week, 3 months after I installed LinuxLite on this machine*. When I click on it, nothing is happening.  Everything else in the Menu works.  My LinuxLite 2.8 is as-out-of-the-box, with very few additions.

WHAT I TRIED:
I didn't fiddle with the Whisker Menu prior to this, but I took a look anyway and everything is "ticked" as it should.  I've check all logs but my untrained eyes couldn't spot anything related to my problem. And I've spent some time reading here but didn't find anything similar.  I may try to restore but I'm not there yet.

WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR:
I'd like to understand why this is happening and how to make these important buttons work again.

*This is not the computer described in my profile.  It's a 2008 Compaq Presario CQ60,  3G Ram, AMD Sempron NVidia GEForce 8200M G

please guide and grub not issue , when to install new or dual boot
and how to do correct look and feel as with live cd works

ll is great and we are glue to it

Regards,

Whenever I download a package from the LL repository, using Synaptic Package Manager, gdebi automatically installs it but I have no record of the package saved in downloads.

My questions is how do I download a package to the 'Downloads' folder without gdebi automatically installing it?

Thanks for your help
Mike

My cpu and/or memory max out and slow the computer  too easily. With only Firefox running, and only 3-6 tabs open, sometimes even less, I experience slowdowns and /or crashes. Hoping a resource friendly browser might help.
Synatic icon legend tells me Midori package is not supported, but a forum search tells me some users are using or have used Midori succesfully, so I tried it. I downloaded and installed  Midori successfully via synaptic. Found Midori icons in start menu/Internet/Midori. Opening it failed with the following message.

Error - file:///usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index.html

The page 'file:///usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index.html' couldn't be loaded.

Error opening file: No such file or directory

Try again

Not sure what to do. I added Midori-dbg as a wild guess but that didn't help. Midori home page offers downloads for Ubuntu. Is that a recommended way to add this software to Linuxlite?
Suggestions welcome.

Hi Folks,

What I'd like to do is set up a class C network of 4 computers. I want to be able to share info between all 4 of them locally but only 2 of the machines will be able to access the internet while the other 2 cannot have any internet traffic going in or out. I've spent a fair amount of time trying to read up on how I could do this but didn't really find anything that explained things in a clear way. I did find one article that had a bit of helpful info but it still isn't enough for me to solve this project.

I have 2 Linksys routers, I set the first router address to 192.168.1.1, the second router was set to a different subnet 192.168.2.1, the first router has the cable modem going into the WAN port. Then I linked up a ether cable from one of the LAN ports on the first router and had that going into the WAN port of the second router. I got a computer hooked up to the 2nd router by way of a LAN port but it still had access to the Internet. Is there any way to shut off any Internet traffic to any computers connected to the 2nd router but still have them capable of sharing stuff locally ?

Anyway, I need a bit of help from someone who knows more about how to do this as I am going around in circles. I think I can put this together if someone can get me pointed in the right direction.

Thanks,

hey guys im looking for some stuff to wear for work. im tired of the same blue jeans and band t shirt. is there any Linux lite swag that i can buy?

This is progressive, but has concerned only browser icons thus far. First it affected the TOR icon, which on start-up would line up in the left-hand column instead of sticking to its position as of shutdown. After a while, the Links2 icon followed suit, and now Chromium joined the pack.
I have not tried any remedies yet - any suggestions?

hey guys im bluzeo. not new to Linux by any means but to lite i am. im going to school for an linux+ cert and want to help the lite community. i love using Gimp and playing Tuxracer.
