Does anybody have experience of using GetDeb.net..??
Issues/problem with it's use on LinuxLite

Can't seem to find the SOLVED  button at the bottom of thread .?? Is that just my display of forum or is it a general problem issue.

Hello All,


Just playing around with some other browsers & find that out of FireFox, Chromium, Dillo, Midori & Links 2 the only ones I can access the site & forums with are FireFox & Chromium.
Dillo will open some pages but I cannot login with it, Links 2 complains about an SSL error & Midori complains the SSL handshake fails.
I'm really starting to like Midori as it's superfast & although it's bookmark handling is poor the speed with which it does things makes up for that, in my humble opinion anyway.
Is this because the SSL support is a bit behind in these browsers?
Or is it the LL site & forums just don't play nice with them?

I just installed Linux Lite 2.6 on my son's computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor. He has previously run L.L 1.06 on this machine for the last 2 years and Steam worked pretty well on it. I installed the proprietary Nvidia graphics driver, but Steam still will not launch. I also tried reinstalling it from a .deb file, and I've searched the internet with no answer. Does anyone have a suggestion?

I would like to upgrade the operating system on my Dell Inspiron 1501 laptop to 2.6 if possible and need some help. I think that this computer meets the minimum requirements but from what I have read I can't upgrade from this older version 1.0.6. So I think that I would download the ISO and boot from the flash drive and install a replacement version. That sounds easy enough but I am just a bit nervous and could use some advise. I take for granted that all added programs and files will be lost during this so I will save all I can and reinstall later.

Advise would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Les

Has anyone recently noticed instability in Libre Office - particularly regarding writer and calc.  Since recent updates I have found that s  when saving documents spreadsheets they do not open without going through a recovery process - and even then several  come up as a non recoverable file.  Only just started having problems in the last few days.  I have been using libre office as my main office workhorse for many years both on Windows and on LL without problems.

Just to be sure I have completely deleted libre office , using synaptic.  Shut down the computer, rebooted some minutes later and then reloaded libre office from synaptic , installed updates to be sure all is current etc.  Same issue.

Thanks

Is there a way to make .desktop files executable by default? I like to drag web page links onto the desktop, and if possible would like to avoid having to convert each one to a trusted executable before I can launch it.


Blessings.
