Hi,
I was not able to update my system today. I get the following error:
pk-client-error-quark: E: Failed to fetch https://linux.teamviewer.com/deb/-dists/.../InRelease 403 Forbidden [IP 13:33:68:109 443}
E: The repository 'https://linux.teamviewer.com/deb stable InRelease' is not signed.
W: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore
disabled by default
W: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user
configuration details.
E: https://linux.teamviewer.com/deb stable InRelease is not (yet) available
(402 Forbidden [IP 13.33.68.109 443])
(319)
Are y'all aware of this error? A friend is getting it on their PC. I disabled the update repository for Team Viewer and was able to successfully update my system. I hope you get this fixed soon. I use Team Viewer regularly with friends and family so I need to stay updated.
Thanks for the great OS.

Before switching to Linux Lite, i had Linux mint.
On both of them the technicians could not install an Epson printer;
They advized me to buy a HP printer > same impossible to install it.
Even another technician - specialized in Linux - could not install the scanner nor the printer.
So can anyone tell me if there are perfect drivers for installing it on linux Lite ?
Thousand thanks
Leo

This is a question that gets asked every now and then, so I thought it was time to have something in writing to clear this up.
As of this post, there is no software from us to upgrade you from one Series of LL to the next.
So can it be done?
It's linux and free software, so most things are possible. Theoretically, you could just change the sources in your /etc/apt/sources.list file from eg. focal (20.04) to jammy (22.04), run Install Updates and wammo, you're running the latest Ubuntu base.
So from:
Code: # deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal main restricted
# deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal-updates main restricted
# deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-security main restricted
# See http://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes for how to upgrade to
# newer versions of the distribution.
deb http://nz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal main restricted
# deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal main restricted
## Major bug fix updates produced after the final release of the
## distribution.

Will this method go smoothly?
Don't just assume that it will. You may have PPA's that don't have a jammy repo yet, LL's custom software is ONLY written for the current release (makes sense right). There are 1000's of computers out there with just as many unique configurations. It is unrealistic and unfair to expect LL to support every unique configuration in existence in order to guarantee a perfect Series to Series upgrade.
In a test of a fresh LL 5.4 install, I ran updates, rebooted, then changed my sources from focal to jammy and it went smoothly. Or so it seemed.
Installing jammy (Ubuntu 22.04) via Install Updates on a freshly installed and updated 5.4:

Success?!?

Can I choose any future version of an Ubuntu base, or do I have to stick with LTS?
You can choose any future version. DO NOT attempt an earlier version. Bad, bad news.
What's the best way to test this?
Duplicate your set up exactly as it is in a VM, then test the upgrade process. Just keep in mind this will not necessarily and accurately reflect in the same hardware outcomes as a VM is mostly simulated hardware, and not passthrough (although eg nVidia now allows passthrough).
We're not going to support this because of the ungodly amount of extra support it will create, and this community is nicely balanced at the moment. We can't stop you from trying, it is after all free software, we're just not going to support every single error as a result of this unpredictable procedure.
So when someone asks now, "Can I upgrade my Linux Lite from one Series to the next?" Simply reply, "Yes, but it is not supported, and here is a thread explaining why."
This is best attempted on a fresh install after the first run of Install Updates. Any later, and that's where the complications will arise.
Will we one day support it? That depends on how our base (Ubuntu) evolves. Never say never, right?

| Installation breaks on configuring nvidia-340 |

Hi guys, I've tried multiple Linux Lite latest version installations on my Fujitsu esprimo v6555, but they keep totally breaking after hanging a very long time on "configuring nvidia-340 (amd64)".
Totally unusable machine this way???. I used to run Ubuntu 14 lts dual boot with a long gone Windows 7 on it, but unfortunately Ubuntu's upgrade broke the os totally. So I've tried unsuccessfully several fresh installs of Ubuntu 20 lts and of Linux Lite running into Nvidia troubles(Single boot).
Looking through a lot of different distros documentation I've found an Hint?? : apparently my old machine might be better off with nvidia 304 driver than 340. With suggestion to do an installation through live usb's terminal.
Now I'd love to give that a go...
But I'm afraid I'm not competent enough to work out the way to do It.
Any kind creature that could feel like helping me out with a step-by-step path to try out there?
Thank you in advance
