  Libre Office - no create
Posted by: MarkHoward - Yesterday, 01:27 AM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (5)

I installed Linux Lite 7.4 last week along with the associated version of Libre Office. (so - newbie)

When I open Libre Office, under the Create Menu, all the options are greyed out and unavailable.
In this situation, if I go Open File and navigate to an ODT file and click Open then I get a "Filter Selection" window with contents that suggest it thinks it's a chart.  It won't open.

If, however, I navigate to the same ODT file through File Manager and double click it, it opens faultlessly.  Same for .ODS files.

Is someone able to help me Create a new file or open an existing file through the main menu please?

Thanks, Mark

  some sensible questions
Posted by: trinidad - 07-01-2025, 03:47 PM - Forum: Off Topic - No Replies

I've been terribly preoccupied lately with building a new server and dealing with the annoying wait time for Debian 13 stable to drop. Anyway I was checking some references today and ran across this post on getcyber. It's a short read but addresses some of the frustrations I have with the modern Internet and the ridiculous amount of piled on new learning required to be up to date. Anyway I am of many of the same opinions expressed in this brief article. If you are as frustrated with the manic pace of Web "modernization" as I am it's nice to know we're not alone, and that there are people with considerable expertise who are asking why, and like me even postulating that "security" excuses are often only creating a more expansive fertile ground for security leaks and some "easier to use" programming languages are doing the same thing.

  Xerox DocuPrint P265 dw installation
Posted by: MarkHoward - 06-28-2025, 09:41 PM - Forum: Printing and Scanning - Replies (15)

Hi - absolute newbie
Trying to install the named printer.
In Menu>System>Printers>Add it finds and recognises the connected printer "connected to USB"
Searching for a driver it says it has found one - "Gutenprint"
When I go "Forward" to install the driver it says "Installing openprint-gutenprint"  but it just sits there (for at least 5 minutes) and appears to be doing nothing.
I have the Xerox distribution CD that came with the printer (several years ago) but not sure if any drivers on the CD would be Lite-compatible: or how I would go about accessing them.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

  grub-efi-amd64-signed package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit
Posted by: stevef - 06-24-2025, 10:42 AM - Forum: Security & Bug Fixes - Replies (8)

A number of support threads have been raised in which this has been evident.

On a test system, installed OS from LL7.4 iso and attempting all the updates post installation.

During the upgrade, it appears the grub-efi-amd64-signed set up script can't find the location of the GRUB boot loader.
As a result of this problem, the grub script requires user intervention to manually confirm where it is or should be.

If update/upgrade is done from the cli, the grub-efi-amd64-signed configuration script calls a text based configuration tool.
The tool is similar in style to something like nmtui and the user is expected to navigate the menu to select and confirm the location of the GRUB boot loader.

My guess is that the lite-updates script is not equipped to handle this situation and throws an update/upgrade failure message with a cryptic message stating

Quote:mount: /var/lib/grub/esp: special device /dev/disk/by-id/ata-VBOX_HARDDISK_VBad170837-5acc172c-part2 does not exist.
and
Quote:grub-efi-amd64-signed package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 32

Checking indicates that the update/upgrade initiated by lite-updates did in fact work despite the error message but this is transparent to the user who is instructed to seek help on the forum.
