Re: I need help installing some 3rd party programs - torreydale - 08-20-2015 Looks like your installs of java and Opera are causing this. You can go to Software & Updates (Menu->All->Software & Updates) . Choose the Other Software tab and uncheck the items referring to launchpad.net/java and the one referring to Opera. OR You could uninstall them by trying: Code: sudo apt-get purge opera Then re-try what was mentioned before. Re: I need help installing some 3rd party programs - torreydale - 08-20-2015 And this looks like a good resource on your printer. When they mention Synaptic Package Manager, you get to that in Linux Lite by going to Menu->System->Install/Remove Software. http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/12/canon-driver-scangear-mp-ubuntu-14-04/ Re: I need help installing some 3rd party programs - 5150Jim - 08-20-2015 (08-20-2015, 01:59 AM)torreydale link Wrote: Looks like your installs of java and Opera are causing this.

Re: I need help installing some 3rd party programs - torreydale - 08-20-2015 After reboot, run Install Updates (Menu->Favorites->Install Updates), then try opening Lite Software.

I even installed Java via Lite Software like you said. Then I went back and installed Dropbox, Music Player, Video Editing Software, VirtualBox & Webcam Software. Thank you. Now I just need to get my printer working. I'm looking into this from a comment that was earlier in the topic. And this looks like a good resource on your printer.
