Linux Lite Kernel

[avj]

I thought I entered it right, but to be sure I tried again and got the same thing.

xxxxx@acer-AOA150:~$ sudo /etc/initi.d/vboxdrv setup
[sudo] password for xxxxx:
sudo: /etc/initi.d/vboxdrv: command not found

I tried the fix at the link provided, but it still gives a not found error.

after looking back through the screen output this sticks out:

Try this: sudo service vboxdrv setup, if still not working, uninstall/purge VirtualBox, sudo apt-get remove --purge virtualbox (back up anything you need to first). Then get the latest VB here - https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads

Well after a purge and installing with the instructions on the linked page, I am happy to report it is working.

Thanks for the help.

Excellent

4.1.1 Linux Lite Kernel is now available for 32 & 64bit machines.

Open a terminal and do:

Code:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install linux-headers-linuxlite-4.1.1 linux-image-linuxlite-4.1.1 -y

Ignore any errors in the terminal.

Look forward to your feedback. Thank you.

Have it installed and working on an Acer Aspire V5-573PG
My first problem is that the Wifi isn't working despite the fact that the Broadcom Linux STA driver is shown as installed and ws working with the old kernel

Installed the kernel and all working without any problems

Is the kernel update something I should be concerned about...everything is working well and I'm afraid to attempt it and mess everything up?
