  Updates have been cancelled Ricoh printer
Posted by: osde8info - 02-16-2018, 12:50 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (2)

Linux Lite updates starts but then says "updates have been canceled"

it started breaking after i installed a ricoh printer

workaround

aptitude (as root) or synaptic (as root) work fine on their own but do display a warning

Code:

  Problem with Source List Updating v3.4 to v3.8
Posted by: mezzmer - 02-16-2018, 08:59 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (4)

I have a Virtual Machine that I haven't used in awile that is still on v3.4 that I wan't to update to 3.8.  The Updates on 3.4 fail, so I decided to install v3.8 on top of 3.4 which seemed to work fine, except that I can't update v3.8 due to problems with the program sources.  I've attached a copy of the error log in the event that it helps, but I'm wondering I can get a copy of the correct sources from somewhere and replace them.  I don't recall adding any PPAs that were non-standard to this install.

Any assistance would be much appreciated.

  Is there a Repair/Refresh Install
Posted by: mezzmer - 02-15-2018, 06:41 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (9)

Is there any way to force a reinstall to clean up a system when an update goes bad, or is the only way to fix things to wipe and start from scratch?

  Need to fix custom settings in xfcong
Posted by: mogydad - 02-15-2018, 04:58 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (2)

I have an old Dell Inspiron 1100 which has an issue displaying only a partial screen once I install Linux distros.  This AM I installed Linux Lite and experienced the same problem.  Not familiar with this software, and working in 1/4 of the normal screen, I stumbled into Settings Editor and manually changed the resolution from 640x480 to 1024x768.  I then rebooted and ended up with a black screen. 

I forced a restart and booted into recovery which started up and displayed 1024x768.  Thought everything was good ... but on a second restart, found that normal boot ends up with a black screen.

How might I correct the problem I created in xfconf?  Secondly, any ideas how I might resolve the original problem with the partial screen display?

Thank you in advance ...

Curious as to whether Linux Lite could work on Orange Pi? (Specifically, the Orange Pi Plus 2E http://www.orangepi.org/orangepiplus2e/ ? ) It supports Ubuntu, so I was wondering. Would appreciate any info anyone could provide. Thanks.

  My first experience with Lite 3.8 (French)
Posted by: marlenejo - 02-15-2018, 01:52 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (1)

Hello, I don't know if that post goes in the french forum portion but that language part seems to be deserted. Anyway being very experience with Mint, here is couple of thing I went through with my first Lite installation.

- the installer crash close to the end but having restarted it, it finally went through.
- first thing you notice, unlike Mint, the OS installation is not in the language you choose at install. Puzzling.
- Fair enough so the welcome screen mention something about languages. I selected that, then it offer to install updates which I did. After that nothing else but after a while I found out that this windows is scrollable (not obvious) and you can find that section further down.
- It then ask to update language files, ok then proceed to set my language (French Canadian). Reboot, mostly ok but my French Canadian keyboard is still in English. Found the keyboard setting and the default had to be deselect for some reason. French keyboard is installed but Alt-characters do not work. Fiddle around with "change page formatting and Compose keys (don't know what that does) but after resetting it to default, French Canadian I presume) it work fine.
- first boot, the name of the home folders has to change to French names. Select Yes. It work mostly but every time I login I have a message about "configured download folder does not exist, Please make sure that the Download folder exist or configure it with bluemoon-services ???. The "Download" folder is called "Téléchargements" in French. How can I get rid of this ??
- A few missing translation especially with right clicking with the mouse (Open terminal here, search here etc ...)
- Thunar system menu entries are still in English. Else here some entries are in English and menu not translated.

It seems that Lite is more oriented for English speaking users probably due to fewer developers in Linux Lite.
The rest seems to be pretty much identical to Mint Xfce which is fully translated. It is still nice to have choices,

Thanks
