Found this Jerry ; http://smxi.org/site/install.htm , by ppa

& this one ; https://code.google.com/p/inxi/wiki/inxiFAQs


I use inxi but I use this command from time to time in order to have the latest release in Terminal :

cd /usr/local/bin && wget -Nc smxi.org/inxi && chmod +x inxi && inxi

It s a little time consuming , but I don t really mind .


Thanx for the latest Tweak update , love this one .

Ah , was refering to this post results from austintexas s Terminal results :

sudo inxi -U
Error 17: All inxi self updater features have been disabled by the distribution
package maintainer. This includes the option you used: -U


I also have the same results .

It can t be updated .

It s a nice LL feature I must say .

Well, it will stick at least until Ubuntu updates the inxi package. Smile

Liking the update, it just keeps getting better and better.

I have another question or suggestion tho, is there a way or can it be added that when i use Lite Tweaks, it remembers what i have checked each time i use it or open it up? Lets say if i want to do a quick clean, i don't want to have to keep checking things and looking at the list each time i use it.

I think it would be nice if it will remember the settings i previously had checked.

Thank you, misko_2083
Your command:
sudo sed -i 's/^B_ALLOW_UPDATE=false/B_ALLOW_UPDATE=true/' /etc/inxi.conf
worked to update inxi to Version 2.2.19 (which gives better results)

I like the improvements to Lite Tweaks. Keep up the great work!
