Using the Firefox web browser,
From www.google.com/chrome, I download the 64-bit.deb.
The file I get is google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb.

(I am kind of curious why amd64 is in the file name, because my
Dell Dimension 3100 has an Intel processor.)

After I click on the file that I downloaded, I get an small pick-up window which
states "Open the file link?
You'll need to chose an application."
I click on the Choose button.
But there not a list of applications to choose from
It would seem that Linux Lite should know what applications to use to expand
and execute the file.
I do not know whether Google needs to fix the problem or whether 
Linux Lite needs to produce an update to fix the problem.

So, right now, it is not possible to install Google Chrome on Linux Lite 6.6.
I would appreciate any suggestions for help.  I am new to Linux in the process of 
moving over from Windows.  Thank you.]]> Google Chrome stopped working a few days ago after I installed all of the latest updates to LL 6.6.

When I open Libre Office, under the Create Menu, all the options are greyed out and unavailable.
In this situation, if I go Open File and navigate to an ODT file and click Open then I get a "Filter Selection" window with contents that suggest it thinks it's a chart.  It won't open.

If, however, I navigate to the same ODT file through File Manager and double click it, it opens faultlessly.  Same for .ODS files.

Is someone able to help me Create a new file or open an existing file through the main menu please?

Thanks, Mark]]>

I'm a recent user of Linux and Linux Lite. 

I'm trying to install Microsoft Office on Linux Lite, as I tried (and succeeded to do, on Zorin OS).

Installed Wine and PlayonLinux, executed some terminal commands and tried several other solutions without success.

I would like to know if someone as a solution to install Office 2010 or Office 2014.

Thank you in advance for the support you may provide.

Best regards.]]>

Looks like RDP is not pre-installed in Linux Lite. 

Q1: Is it possible to install to a Linux Lite Live? (albeit just for that session)
Q2: What RDP app is recommended? (similar to Win RDP, reliable, easy to configure)

Many thanks]]>

I'm trying to install Cisco Packet Tracer 8.2.2 on Linux Lite 7.0, which is based on Ubuntu 24.04. However, when I run the `.deb` installer, I get the following error:

packettracer depends on libgl1-mesa-glx; however: Package libgl1-mesa-glx is not installed.


I tried installing `mesa-utils` and other related packages, but it seems `libgl1-mesa-glx` is no longer available in the 24.04 repositories. I also searched for `.deb` packages online, but couldn't download them successfully from the Ubuntu mirrors.

Does anyone know a safe workaround for this? Maybe a replacement library or a PPA that brings this dependency back? I’d like to avoid downgrading my system or switching distros just for this.

Thanks in advance for any help!

The "preinstalled" chrome browser doesn't launch, but I am able to install the firefox browser from the Litesoftware welcome page. For the brave I used the single command line install (curl -fsS https://dl.brave.com/install.sh | sh) and also the command lines they list for debian/ubuntu/mint with similar results. I am not a tech expert by any means but I can do the basic command lines and # out the lines that are recommended to be disabled, etc. 

What am I missing? Or do I just need a different distro?]]>
