gold_finger, I just tried to install updates as Scott described. I get the cursor requesting the password, but when I try to type the password, the cursor just goes blank for a moment. Nothing types into the space.
I also tried to enter a sudo apt for google and it won't let me type in the password. Typing everywhere else is fine.
Any suggestions? Thanks, Tom
Gee whiz- if I would just read more, I could fix my problems myself. Sorry guys, I just realized the passwords do not show but still work. I was able to get the updates list. I'll let you know how it goes from here.
OK. I've learned a lot in a short time! All is well, apps have downloaded as you both said they would. I am very pleased with Linux Lite and with the forum tech support I received.
Kudos to Scott and gold_finger for their help!
