Hi

I'm new to Linux.. so hoping I can, firstly, get some help.. and secondly that I can understand how to implement the suggestions! Here goes..

I have an iMac 2009. I recently upgraded from the HDD to a SSD, but in that process the HDD sensor is now not functioning. This means that the fan that is meant to keep the HDD/SSD cool runs at its maximum speed.

When I was on Mac OS I was able to download several apps that could control the HDD fan and lower the speed when required (which was most of the time).

Now that I'm on Linux Lite, I am struggling to find a way that I can control the HDD fan.

I've tried several forums suggestions:

https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=42737
https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/other...onstantly/
https://www.reddit.com/r/linux4noobs/com...for_linux/
https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/on-to...-controle/

Most (I think all) refer to sensors... but the nuance with my situation is that there is no sensor present! Is there a way to simply change the fan speed without addressing anything about its sensor?

Hoping for some help!

PJC

I'm getting the error below when I attempt to update my system. Please assist in resolving.
Thank You
Don

Testing why. Is there a time limit on composing posts now? Sometimes I have to think a while when responding and after a recent attempt at replying that took some time, maybe 30min. I was blocked.Cloudflare Ray ID: 86fa2ecace761249

I just changed to Linux Lite from Mint. I had no problems with Mint recognizing or printing with the above printer. In Lite the only way I can print anything is to the access the printer via the usb port. Any tips would sure be appreciated.
I am a fairly new linux user.
Thanks

Hi,

I don't want have Windows anymore, I've read many questions in this forum, the guide and that didn't help me.
I know some of this steps installing but that guide with DUAL booting of Linux Lite really made me confused... (https://www.linuxliteos.com/manual/insta...legacymode)
To make it clear I'd give you some info of my PC

My bios is Legacy BIOS
I only want to install LinuxLite 6.6 with at last 4 partitions: grub/boot , /(ext4), home(ext4) and swap partition

My main doubt is the FIRST partition the one for the grub/boot .That's because with some Debian distros I only need one with at least 500Mb label as unformatted ,grub, bios... if I remember well.

Please ,help me. Thanks in advance

I heard about this last week but now the community has addressed the issue. Nothing I run was affected and Ubuntu and Debian both announced their Stable OS versions were not affected. Interesting article also listing distros affected at the link below.

https://www.helpnetsecurity.com/2024/03/...d-distros/

The link below is to the guy who discovered the vulnerability. It also provides a vulnerability checking bash script which I ran on all my systems.

Just another reason why runnng Ubuntu LTS and/or Debian Stable is your best bet.TC
