I was trying to install Zoho Notebook from a deb file and got the dreaded "there's another installer running" error. I looked up the forum and found a post from FOUR years ago, about the same error on v 3
Why has this not been fixed in V5?
Hello guys ,facing this error while updating. A beginner and a newbie here so please guide me

I am trying to setup fantasy ground classic fo play with friends but I can not seem to get wine to work with me. Should I switch to lutris or playonlinux?
Sent from my moto g power using Tapatalk
When I search for wine in synaptic package manager,
I find quite a number of applications such as
wine-stable, wine, wine64, wine-menu-linuxlite, etc.
Which ones do I need to install in order to run some
relatively simple Windows programs ?
Also, do I need to install steam as well ?
Hi LL folks.
Because I've used Linux Lite and think its definitely one of the best distros for newcomers from windows world, when I do mention Linux as an alternative for a sluggish windows installation, LL is always mentioned in my alternatives.
I'm a frequent user in the Toms Hardware forum, and not to seldom I see people complaining of poor performance from thir windows computers, and I try to read between lines to consider if this is a person that may be worth spending time trying to convince to switch to Linux.
Here is such a post at hardware forum:https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/is-it-win-10-or-dell-slow-start-locks-up-etc.3680531/
The OP here is a person that I consider can be one that considering switching to Linux.
What I really want from this is - if you read the #5 (that's me) - and let me know if you think this is a good approach, can post like this improve somehow? I want to get better in advocate Linux to people.
I also - of course - have a pretty good feeling about what people are not receptive for talking about Linux, so I won't push it too hard either. Maybe I shouldn't mention that so much in the post mentioned?
Cheers

No se que ocurre pero cuando le meto el password es como si se vuelve a cargar y otra vez me vuelve a salir la misma pantalla. El password esta bien metido ya que si pruebo otra palabra da error.
Adjunto imagen de donde esta en bucle.

I have been using LL3.8 on a VM for a couple of years, but with EOL coming up, I want to move to LL5.2.
How can I transfer the following customisation/configuration:
1. Initial boot screen (Gradient Gold with a LL Feather) ... It seems to have disappeared in LL4/5.
2. Greeter window background colour
3. Desktop background set to solid colour
4. Task bar, Change colour and panel setup
Is it possible to just copy some configuration files/directories? If so, how do I find out what I need to copy?
Today, upon rebooting after an update, Linux Lite informed me that there were no network devices available.
Rebooting into Linux 5.4 solved that problem.
Are there any known issues with Linux 5.8?
Not really sure where to put questions like this.
I probably should have put it in the Bugs forum?
Because it is a bug.
Windows works, of course, so it must be something related to kernels and drivers and services/daemons.
Would be interesting to see if this affects others, and not just me (which would be typical) 
EDIT:
The device is a bog-standard Realtek RTL8111 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller, integrated into my motherboard. My machine is a stationary PC, no wifi, and relatively recent.
I don't mind booting into 5.4, but I hope this gets fixed in 5.8.
Here is the output of

According to this topic https://askubuntu.com/questions/1291313/...26-generic there was some work done that could cause problems with devices.
And another topic also suggests installing the linux-generic package - https://askubuntu.com/questions/1307447/...untu-20-04 - but it is already installed, although I noticed that the package depends on Linux 5.4 and not 5.8. I am not sure if that's a problem.
I will run the lshw command on my failed login, but it says UNCLAIMED for the device:

But the network card is still unclaimed on 5.8.0-38.
I am now going to boot into Windows and get work done, but it would be nice to see an update soon so that I can enjoy Linux
EDIT with the solution :
I ran
sudo apt clean && sudo apt install --reinstall linux-modules-extra-5.8.0-38-generic
I have no idea if I had the modules-extra package installed, but it worked. (Or maybe threatening to boot into Windows worked? :p )
So, this is not a fault of my own, but a glitch in the update procedure. My Linux Lite installation is only a couple of months old, so I am not to blame for this.
I hope that this information will be useful for someone else experiencing the problem.
I was following the instruction to install a Brother printer MFC-L6510DW on my Linux Lite, but when I get to the 2nd step that is go to "super user" (su) or (sudo su) I get the message Authentication Failure when I put the password, and I only have one password for that OS. What am I missing or do wrong? why do I get that message? I can't complete the installation because of that. Would somebody help me?
