  Chromium has broken dependencies LL3.6
Posted by: Acdane - 09-13-2017, 04:14 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (2)

The solution to the follow was to re-install python enchant.


Hi, I am having a problem with Chromium broken dependencies which is affecting installing other things in Lite Tweaks. So I tried to remove it and got this. I also included a snippet of a system report.
I'm attempting to remove some software, Chromium in particular and get the following error. I have a Dell XPS M1210 LL3.2

Here's the log from when I tried to remove it:

sudo apt-get remove chromium-browser
[sudo] password for annkronick:

The following packages will be REMOVED:

2 not fully installed or removed.
After this operation, 265 MB disk space will be freed.

I also did a system log and found the following

Posted by: modd - 09-13-2017, 02:55 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (2)

Hi;
I'm having copy and paste issues it started under 4.12.?? kernel and under 4.13.1 kernel I've updated parcellite to 1.21 and it goes there but will not let me paste in g+ in chromium 61.
this is just started happening after some updates.
While I know since I'm running super gamer distro based off or Linux lite and Xubuntu  I  have less help here but I wanted to let all know.

btw 4.13.,1 works for me :

amd 8320

Hi


I have bought a personal laptop so i will like to delete LL from a shared desktop that had both LL and Windows 10 installed. How is the best way to go about deleting LL without touching Windows 10?

I have an old Novatech laptop that I intend installing LL 3.6 onto. The trouble is i can boot from the install medium ok, all appears to load ok, but I never get to a desktop. I have tried various operating systems to no avail. I have reset the Bios but don't know what else to try. Any ideas please?

  System hangs during boot
Posted by: bfb - 09-11-2017, 06:48 AM - Forum: Start up and Shutdown - Replies (9)

I am having a problem with a fresh install:
On a Dell Inspiron Mini 1012, the boot process hangs during some systemd stuff
On SECOND run : I.e it works fine on first run after install but hangs  after re-booting. This is my first try with the series 3 on this machine which was running 2.8 perfectly.

System hangs during boot after printing three or all of these lines;

[  OK  ] Created slice system-systemd\x2drfkill.slice.
        Starting Load/Save RF Kill Switch Status of rfkill0...
        Starting Load/Save RF Kill Switch Status of rfkill1...
        Starting Load/Save Screen Backlight Brightness of leds:dell::kbd_backlight...
I THINK

This bug is caused by the file /var/lib/systemd/backlight/platform-dell-laptop:leds:dell::kbd_backlight created by (I guess) [email protected]

As that file is re-created at shutdown, I have to mask the service systemd-backlight@leds\:dell\:\:kbd_backlight.service with:

sudo systemctl mask systemd-backlight@leds\:dell\:\:kbd_backlight.service

so kernel-4.4.0-93 doesn't hang at boot.



BUT I can’t get into the system to do this.
I tried going in in recovery mode, but it demands a root password for maintenance.

Can anyone help?
