Did that.  Seems like it works.  Do you think I should run those original lines of code again?

I take it chromium 32 bit is all OK- i.e not "back door" vulnerable??

Monkeyman,
If your updates don't run for some reason, then copy and paste the two aforementioned 64bit lines of code into a terminal as a workaround.  It's been over a week since Google made their change.  It doesn't seem like they're trying to make this correction on their own.  It's disappointing because I've helped several people move over to Linux and I just don't see them investigating this issue to fix it on their own like you are...and it's not their fault or yours.

newtusmaximus,
Chromium should be fine in 32-bit.  I cannot speak to back doors, but it is still supported for Linux unlike 32-bit Google Chrome for Linux.

We've removed Chrome from the Lite Software 32bit version.

For 32bit Google Chrome:

Open a terminal and do each of these commands one at a time:

Code:

sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list
sudo apt-get remove google-chrome-stable

Install Chromium via Lite Software. Do not keep Chrome installed on 32bit Linux Lite. You are placing your system at risk by taking this chance.

For 64bit Google Chrome:

Open a terminal and do each of these commands one at a time:

Code:

sudo sed -i -e 's/deb http/deb [arch=amd64] http/' "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list"
sudo sed -i -e 's/deb http/deb [arch=amd64] http/' "/opt/google/chrome/cron/google-chrome"

Jerry, thanks.. got this error on my  ultrabook and solved w/ your help.  ;D ;D

Cool

Noticed a lot of people coming into the Forums and posting new threads, despite the amount of useful existing threads. Hopefully this Header and Footer on every page will cut down on the number of new posts

Great idea!

Is it possible to have it in red and blinking?
Or a red banner running above with "Attention!"

Not kidding considering that new posts still show up...

@LL-user, a new thread just showed up....sigh

Yep, therefore I asked for the possibility to make it sticking out.

Have you guys considered to release two new ISOs to at least avoid the hassle with/ posts from new installations from these ISOs?

I have considered releasing updated isos, but I'm not going to do that. LL 3.0 is just around the corner.
