error en la actualización y no se puede usar los navegadores de internet google chrome, chromium, no cambia de idioma (lenguage support) de ingles a español pese a la descarga del paquete en spanish

Another 'to-do' marked off the list!

Would like some helpers with this please  You don't have to be a code genius, just some basic Git knowledge and Markdown.
I've been using ChatGPT to help, so anyone can do this 


This should massively extend the Manual (which this is replacing), and it's my hope it will be one of the largest of any of the distros. We can do it!

Name is Jim, have been using Linux Lite on and off for years. Have several old ex-windows laptops that are happy once again running LL. W7 just ain't no good no more! Used to run Apache server on one, and have a W10 laptop with a hard drive so tiny that Winders won't update -- that one might be next.

These are scattered about the house so as needed someone might grab one and browse away the day. And Samba is running on them all -- file sharing is really sweet.

And I've a goal to publish some open source software. I could never find a picture viewer with all the right features so why not write my own. Using Qt on LL and windows, just coming to terms with Qt Creator. Two things remain -- Zooming with the scroll wheel and working with EXIF data. Fun stuff.

Yeah I'm an old software guy -- PDP 11, DOS, SuperDOS and all the flavours of windows. And now with LL trying to be a little more than an appliance operator.

Good to meet you all,
Jim

Looking for help with video issues.

Sometimes the screen will break up into sortof a broken checkerboard pattern, squares maybe 10px wide. And as I move windows around they might flash or change forming diagonal patterns. I have screenshots and hardinfo but can't manage to attach them to this note.

I can't make it happen at will, with a finite number of steps. But scrolling a document, moving a window, watching video -- things involving the mouse and video activity does increase the probability.

Does not seem to matter what application I'm using.

If I logout and log back in it's fine for a while until it breaks again.

If it breaks and I switch users it's fine until I switch back again, so the problem seems limited to user space.

This system is dual boot with windows, running it for years no problem. With Linux Lite it seems a bit fragile.

Thanks in advance to any and all who might venture to assist,
Jim.

Last week, the Lite system updates included a kernel update to 6.8.60  Since that update, I have been unable to get Lite to recognize my sound card.  Specifically the headphone port where I plug in my speakers is no longer detected.  Looking at the sound mixer, all I have is Dummy Output as a sound device.

I can get sound if I plug in a USB headset, and I get sound remotely from the system if I connect to it via NoMachine, both are treated as separate sound devices from my sound card.

My system is multi-boot, and the headphone port does work when I am booted to Kubuntu, so this is not a hardware problem.

I have tried reinstalling pulseaudio, pipewire, and alsa.  I am not sure what else to try at this point and need advice.

Howdy fellow Lite users,
It's been a while since I've been on the forum and things sure have changed a lot.  I recently decided to revive my late wife's Samsung NP305V5A 15.6" Laptop from 2012 that hasn't been used for almost a decade.  It has a 1.8 gigahertz AMD processor with 4 gb of ram and a new Samsung 870 EVO 250 gb SSD, I thought I would try out a few distros before making a decision about what would be best, I downloaded Linux Mint XFCE newest version and tried it out and liked it a lot so I installed it and all went fine until the end and it wouldn't boot.  I tried several suggested tips and tricks but it wouldn't boot at all.  So I installed Lite 5.8 in the interim because I know it works on my old Presario without any problems and it loaded without any problems at all, so I decided to download Lite 7.4 and installed it and I ran into the same problem.  It wouldn't boot, I am not sure what the problem is, this laptop has legacy bios, meets more than the minimum requirements and the laptop is in good condition so what could be the problem?
