Any help will be appreciated

Remove the repository "mysql.com/apt/ubuntu," then reload and update normally.

i quite a noob when it comes to commands. So can you post the terminal commands

To remove a PPA....

Uncheck the PPA from "Software and Updates" under the "Other Software" tab..Then try running updates again.. You can update from terminal or from Menu > Favorites > Install Updates

i fixed the update issue. it had something to do with the mysql key (whatever that is) and ran "sudo apt-get update" in the terminal. It updated fine. but after the update it takes too long to boot compared to before the update. i have an ssd in my system. any Ideas?

Hi!

Install Linux Lite v5.0. On a quad-core CPU you have enough resources to run LL 5.0. I'm running it even on a ThinkPad T400 and works very fine. Smile

Cheers!

[size=1em]If you havent done this yet in LL4.x [/size]
In the LL4.x series I know one could gain performance if not planning on using VirtualBox and removing. Run the following commands 1 at a time:

Code:
sudo apt purge virtualbox*

sudo systemctl stop vboxadd.service

sudo systemctl stop vboxadd-service.service

sudo systemctl disable vboxadd.service

sudo systemctl disable vboxadd-service.service

Code:
systemd-analyze

systemd-analyze blame

systemd-analyze critical-chain

I had trouble because of VBox too. It seems that loads a lot of modules and that takes lots of time. I gave up using VBox on Lenovo T400 because of the low level of resources.
On the current machine I might use it, I have enough resources, but the only reason to use it would be to test a distro. I gave up this idea because it's irrelevant if a distro runs in a VM. I prefer to test it on a real machine and the easiest way is to use an external drive and placing the GRUB on the respective drive.
So, from this perspective, running a VM is useless for me.
I experienced this kind of delay with three (four, actually) distros: Linux Mint, Manjaro and Linux Lite. Seems that on Redcore Linux (a friendly Gentoo) behaves the same.
I assume no one cares now for this kind of delay, due to the current standard configurations available on the market.
However, there are many like me, who want to use the resources for a different purpose than loading useless stuff... Wink

Hope this info will help you make the best decision for yourself! Smile

Best regards.
