Installing Software / Re: Has anyone ever installed Waydroid on LL ?

Understand that using Waydroid might not provide the same experience as using the apps natively on an Android device. Some features, gestures, or functionalities may not work as expected.

Other / Re: a Linux Lite 6.6 downloaded a week ago may have installed different kernel ?

« Last post by Edimion on April 11, 2024, 12:41:34 PM »

I thought I have kernel version 6

What makes you think this ?

As of today, an updated LL6.6 should be running kernel 5.15.0-102

Do not confuse Linux Lite version numbers with kernel version numbers.
Read the release notes for information about which kernels are on the Linux Lite ISOs.

Sincerely, I get confused when I made a profile on this forum a difficult question for newbies. That option have 6.x; 5.x; 4.x ,3.x.
Well ,I think the kernel 6 must be the one for a development version..

Yes, I forgot to read that, thanks for your answer

Updates / Re: Install Updates Error log - Chrome NO_PUBKEY

« Last post by stevef on April 11, 2024, 12:30:45 PM »

This indicates that there is a problem authenticating the signing key for Chrome may be missing from your system.
This is stopping your update/upgrade from working.

To help diagnose the problem, please can you open a terminal - by pressing Ctrl Alt and T together.
In the terminal window type or paste in this command followed by Enter.

Code: [Select]

apt-key listThis will show what keys apt can find to check software is signed.

Copy the output and paste it back here.

Installing Software / Re: Steam does not work - games not start even with proton - why?

« Last post by Edimion on April 11, 2024, 11:45:25 AM »

Hi,

Please give us the information what hardware you are using?

For example,
In my case also I cannot use steam and proton because my hardware is old. Two years ago I could, but once Lutris and Steam removed that support it's impossible through that way

But you can install windows through the Virtual Box with Linux Lite but actually I don't have that experience.

So you have to update your topic giving more info or start a new more specific one.

Other / a Linux Lite 6.6 downloaded a week ago may have installed different kernel ?

« Last post by Edimion on April 11, 2024, 11:37:40 AM »

Hi,

I have a newbie question about the kernel we install regularly when we complete a clean installation of Linux Lite 6.6
I installed Linux Lite yesterday and I have that doubt,

A Linux Lite 6.6 could "give" a different kernel version? or The same Linux Lite could give the same kernel and it doesn't matter how old or new is the hardware or the source where you downloaded Linux Lite?

I have this doubt because I thought I have kernel version 6, but it's 5.15.0-102-generic

Other / Re: How to overclock a cpu running Linux Lite, based on Ubuntu22.04?

« Last post by Edimion on April 11, 2024, 11:04:26 AM »

First of all,
Overclock is not only change some values to get a more speed computer,
Overclock will also OVERHEAT the parts you're trying to speed up
So you have to install better coolers and a whole new and better case for your computer
But this steps would be impossible in a Laptop or other similar small devices. If that's your case plese don't do it.

These steps may finally fry your pc, so you have to be extremely careful before try it

Surfing on the I've found one reliable page, Ubuntu wiki overclocking steps.

In my case I only recommend the steps of Intel, I don't understand the steps for AMD and try it only through the BIOS. But perhaps the steps of the BIOS are later the steps of the Intel, but I'm not sure.

First, open the terminal (terminal emulator) and type:
uname -r
------ I've installed the latest Linux Lite 6.6 and it's :5.15.0-102-generic
--(a normal result for a clean normal update Linux Lite 6.6) 
Next type
sudo apt-get install linux-tools-5.15.0-102 linux-cloud-tools-5.15.0-102
Install the MSR module
modprobe msr
Now we're going to test how speed is our computer, type in the terminal
openssl speed
And IN ANOTHER window of the terminal type this:
turbostat
That last terminal will show how much speed could run your computer. But BE CAREFUL you must find out in the INTEL WEBSITE what are the maximum values for your computer before it get fried..

In that page of Ubuntu ,they explain well WE CANNOT USE THE VALUES THET WE FIND when we put turbostat in the terminal, but those could guide us to get the right values for our pc's

Updates / Re: Install Updates could not fetch the package cache information lists.

« Last post by Şerban S. on April 11, 2024, 05:56:24 AM »

Hi!

I know nothing about Spanish.
It's very difficult for me go guess what happened there.
Here is what I would do:

Open the Terminal.
Than type:

Code: [Select]

sudo apt update
If any error or warning message shows up, then copy the message and paste it here, in the thread.
There are people who speak Spanish so someone will sure figure out what happens.
If things are OK, then go to Menu and launch Lite Tweaks: Menu>Search "Lite Tweaks">Lite Tweaks
Select from the Lite Tweaks window the Package System Repair option then Begin
When it's finished, go again to the terminal and Type

Code: [Select]

sudo apt update
After the update finishes, type

Code: [Select]

sudo apt upgrade
If any error is still present, it is likely that you have a repository setup that has a very long response time.
You should consider testing the response speed and change the servers accordingly to your geographic location.
That is done in another window (Software & Updates).
If you get to that, we'll discuss it at that moment.
For now, see if the above solution works, to narrow down the possibilities.

Best regards, Șerban.
