| Updating Calibre |
|

The Calibre e-book reader from supported repositories of LL 3.8 is stuck on version 2.55. Is there a reliable way of getting a newer 32-bit version? I really enjoy Calibre on my little Acer Aspire One running LinuxLite 3.8 (as opposed to a bigger laptop, not fitting into a lap). Should I run the instructions for Linux on the Calibre web site or should I add another (unknown) repository to the updates? I am not afraid of running command lines, but the numerous dependencies are off-putting. And I expect the restore points shoud guard me against disasters. NOTE: I use Calibre for open EPUB books only.

I know it's possible, because I did it a few years ago when I started using LL. I can't remember how to do it and searching the form has not given me an answer, perhaps because I didn't use the right terms, but I've tried several. I wanted to try Nemo, and it works but I have to launch it separately each time. I don't even know if I would want to keep it as the default because it's so clumsy to do this way.

| Inactive taskbar |
|

I have 2 nearly identical computers, both running LL5 and with the exact same set of original and added programs. My #2 computer is mostly a backup to my #1 and doesn't even get turned on very often. Yesterday, after about a month of non-use, I fired up the #2 and did a sizable update.
Since that update, my single bottom taskbar has been unresponsive. The icons on both the far left and far right operate, but when I run a program, the center part remains blank -- no notification of anything running.
Since I often have multiple programs running simultaneously in any desktop, I can use the ALT-TAB to pull up any minimized programs, but I would prefer to be able to just click on its icon in the taskbar, as I did before yesterday's update.
I don't recall ever having to activate this feature to make it work. I assume that having the little taskbar icons show is a given. So, any help in getting my taskbar to once again be active would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for any advice.

I like running LL on one of my machines so much that I want to update/upgrade/convert my two other Linux machines.
I particularity want the LL desktop, and I expect to loose XCFE and Gtk customization.
I want to preserve all the applications I've installed, SMB/networking, MythTV, GCC build environments, etc.
Any suggestions how to approach this?

Installed this version about 2 month. The problem is this, the window manager will only allow one window at a time. If I open a spreadsheet and select File/Open. The Open File dialog opens and the Main Window closes, when the Open File dialog closes the main window opens.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi. I just installed linux lite on an old HP. I installed from a dvd I burned to on the same computer. When I try to update I get the following error. I am a complete novice. I tried reading other threads, but they didn't seem to pertain, so I am sorry if this is a duplicate.
