  Installing Steam - broken dependencies
Posted by: m0NbaVx5jBVSh - 06-24-2022, 05:26 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (7)

I've tried installing via downloading the `.deb` and also via adding the `multiverse`? PPA and now neither works.

Adding the `multiverse` PPA has given me a ton of warnings on `apt-get update` now:

[pre]W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'multiverse/binary-amd64/Packages' as repository 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease' doesn't have the component 'multiverse' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'multiverse/binary-i386/Packages' as repository 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease' doesn't have the component 'multiverse' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'multiverse/i18n/Translation-en_US' as repository 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease' doesn't have the component 'multiverse' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'multiverse/i18n/Translation-en' as repository 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease' doesn't have the component 'multiverse' (component misspelt in sources.list?)
W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'multiverse/cnf/Commands-amd64' as repository 'http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jammy InRelease' doesn't have the component 'multiverse' (component misspelt in sources.list?)[/pre]


The `.deb` fails to install and the `Package Install` window doesn't support copy/pasting. But if I run `steam` via the terminal I get:
[pre]Package libegl1:i386 needs to be installed
Package libgbm1:i386 needs to be installed
Package libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 needs to be installed
Package libgl1:i386 needs to be installed
Package steam-libs-amd64:amd64 needs to be installed
Package steam-libs-i386:i386 needs to be installed
Package xdg-desktop-portal needs to be installed
Package xdg-desktop-portal-gtk needs to be installed[/pre]



And finally errors with:
[pre]steam.sh[9574]: Error: You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run:
libGL.so.1
libdrm.so.2
libdrm.so.2
libdrm.so.2[/pre]

EDIT1: I followed the guide at https://techpiezo.com/linux/install-stea...ntu-22-04/ and installed a ton of stuff via [pre]sudo apt install libgl1:i386[/pre] and now steam launches but it still complains about missing packages. The missing packages now are:

[pre]Package libegl1:i386 needs to be installed
Package libgbm1:i386 needs to be installed
Package steam-libs-amd64:amd64 needs to be installed
Package steam-libs-i386:i386 needs to be installed
Package xdg-desktop-portal needs to be installed
Package xdg-desktop-portal-gtk needs to be installed[/pre]

  there was an error during the CUPS operation server error internal error
Posted by: wintermane - 06-24-2022, 01:34 AM - Forum: Printing and Scanning - Replies (5)

There is another post on the same topic.  The prompt on that page suggested a new thread as the old one has gone 120 days with no comment.

I am trying to connect LL 5.8 to an HP Deskjet 4155e as a wireless network printer.  I have downloaded the HP software.  I have tried the installation instructions in the manual.  I have connected the printer to my laptop via USB. Regardless of the method I attempt, the answer is always <there was an error during the CUPS operation server error internal error>. 

Printer setup shows that is sees the printer.  5 attempts at printing a test page have resulted in document being held.

How can I accomplish this task? 

FWIW, Linux in general has shown me that I am truly a semi-technophobe.

I did not expect this issue.  I have been using Ubuntu MATE for 3 years and it recognized this printer with no problem. 

I have really enjoyed trying Linux Lite again - second time around.  I would like to use it as my primary OS.  I need to be able to print.

  Welcome message in bashrc
Posted by: ROMAINPC - 06-22-2022, 09:36 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (1)

Hello,


I recently had an issue with a program and the bash welcome message.
With a VScode extension which configure things by running a bash command and fetching the first few lines. This extension didn't work for me until I commented out the bashrc welcome message.

Maybe the extension is using the wrong method.
But I wanted to know if there were alternatives to display the welcome message? How does Ubuntu for example? Is there a conventional argument to indicate whether or not to display the message?


Best regards,
Romain.
