Not sure what you want to do but the prompt is generated by powerline.
/usr/share/powerline/ Uses json and python. TC

This model appears to be fairly recent - certainly more recent than the Linux kernels in Lite 6.4, so various drivers (which are part of the Linux kernel rather than separate downloads like Windows) haven't been updated to identify your specific hardware (this comment applies to your sound thread too).
First, update your installation to Lite 6.6 (Settings -> Lite Upgrade)
Then use the Kernel Installer in Lite Tweaks (Settings -> Lite Tweaks) to install the most recent kernel version available. Some googling suggests you will need to at least kernel 6.6 for driver support for some similar Lenovo products.
Keep in mind that such kernels might introduce other problems, and they aren't updated the same way as the base kernel (5.15, which is an LTS kernel with fixes - but not driver hardware support updates - backported regularly).

Hi everyone,
I recently installed Linux Lite 6.2 on my Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 14IAN8 laptop, but I'm having trouble getting the audio to work.
Here's what I've tried so far:
* Reinstalled PulseAudio and ALSA * Checked BIOS settings (audio is enabled) * Made sure there are no physical mute switches engaged * Updated Linux Lite to the latest version * Tried loading different kernel modules (`snd_hda_intel`, `sof-audio-pci-intel-tgl`) * Checked the ALSA mixer (`alsamixer`)
Despite these efforts, the system still doesn't detect any sound cards (`aplay -l` shows no output).
Here's a summary of the relevant terminal output:
* **lspci:** Shows that the audio device is an Intel Corporation Tiger Lake-LP Smart Sound Technology Audio Controller, but the kernel driver in use is `sof-audio-pci-intel-tgl`. * **dmesg:** Reveals errors related to the `sof-audio-pci-intel-tgl` module failing to initialize the audio device. * **lsmod:** Confirms that the `snd_hda_intel` module is loaded but not actively used. * **aplay -l:** Shows no soundcards found.
I suspect there might be a driver issue or a compatibility problem between the `sof-audio-pci-intel-tgl` module and my Intel audio chip.
Has anyone else encountered a similar issue with this Lenovo model on Linux Lite? Any suggestions or solutions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi everyone,
I recently installed Linux Lite 6.4 on my Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 14IAN8, and I'm having trouble getting the touchpad to work. The touchpad worked perfectly fine in Windows, but it's not even being recognized by Linux Lite.
I've tried the following troubleshooting steps:
BIOS: Confirmed that the touchpad is enabled in the BIOS settings. FN Keys: Tested all FN key combinations (Fn + F6, Fn + F8, etc.) with no effect. Drivers: Installed and updated the xserver-xorg-input-synaptics driver. GRUB: Modified the GRUB configuration with various parameters (i8042.nopnp=1 pci=nocrs). X11 Configuration: Verified that the touchpad isn't disabled in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf. Blacklisted Modules: Confirmed no touchpad-related entries in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf. Hardware Switch: Checked for a physical switch, but my model doesn't have one. Reinstalled Input Drivers: Reinstalled xserver-xorg-input-all without success. Kernel Modules: I also tried manually loading the psmouse and elan_i2c kernel modules, even though they weren't listed in the output of lsmod, but it didn't make a difference.
Additional Information:
The touchpad isn't detected in Linux Lite's "Mouse and Touchpad" settings. xinput output: Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Razer Razer Taipan id=7 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Razer Razer Taipan Keyboard id=8 [slave pointer (2)] ⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)] ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Razer Razer Taipan id=9 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Integrated Camera: Integrated C id=10 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Ideapad extra buttons id=11 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=12 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Razer Razer Taipan Keyboard id=13 [slave keyboard (3)]
sudo dmidecode -t 3 output:
# dmidecode 3.3 Getting SMBIOS data from sysfs. SMBIOS 3.4 present.

I'm hoping someone in the Lenovo or Linux Lite community has encountered this issue and can offer a solution.
Is there a specific driver or firmware update I should try? Any configuration tweaks that might help? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

You could try: (First make a backup!) cp ~/.bashrc ~/.bashrc.bak nano ~/.bashrc What are you looking to change/configure? Source: https://ostechnix.com/how-to-customize-bash-prompt-in-linux/Hi there where is this prompt configured?

Good point, Serban! I was wondering if I'd be missing something down the road. I'll try from time to time and see how it goes. Thanks.

Serban. As instructed, I removed the ppa in question from the software list and refreshed. The update finished successfully now. Many thanks.
Glad I could help! Now, there's one more thing you need to do from time to time: Reactivate the PPA, and see if the developer pushed the latest version in the repo. If the update process goes smoothly, then you can leave the PPA active, until a new error emerges, if eventually that happens again. This is what I do when I get to this point from time to time.
