Just thought I'd introduce myself, I'm new to Linux. I haven't installed Linux Lite yet but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna do that here after I finish posting this. I do have a network tethering question but if it's one thing I know it's not to throw a lot of different topics around in places they don't belong Lol so I'll just go to the networking section after here. Looking forward to meeting y'all and sharing tips n tricks. I'm a gamer too... not really PC gamer I mean I enjoyed the few games I've played I'm just used to controller vs KB/M.
Well, I'm not gonna ramble on I'm anxious to start my new journey!
Edit: Sorry about the profanity Lol

| LL-3.4 & Development Repository |

I recently discovered that LL-3.4/64 makes use of the xenial-proposed repository and wondering if this is intentional?
I ask because LL-3.2/64 doesn't use the proposed repository (by default) and not even after an upgrade. While there's nothing wrong with this, two "identical" LL-3.4 machines will end up using slightly different files depending on how the OS was installed. For example, my "native" LL-3.4 machine uses kernel linux-image-4.4.0-87-generic (from proposed repository) while my LL-3.4 (via upgrade) uses kernel linux-image-4.4.0-83-generic. Again, nothing wrong with this, just something to take into consideration when troubleshooting multiple computers on LL or troubleshoot with multiple people who have LL installed.
For a listing of files from the proposed repository go to Synaptic (start > all > install/remove programs) and in Synaptic click on Origin (lower left corner).

| Kernel Upgrade but Previous Kernel Running |

After updating the kernel (at the command line, to kernel 4.4.0-87-generic), grub will default to the previous kernel (4.4.0-86-generic) on boot.
To fix this, enter into grub advanced options at boot, and select kernel 4.4.0-87-generic or the most current kernel listed.
This has happend twice. Now and on the previous kernel update but not before that.
One method to check this:
In a terminal type
Code: ls /boot/ | grep vmlinuz
the uname -r value should match the most current kernel in the previous list.
These troubleshooting steps didn't help:
1. Shutdown vs Restart when rebooting
2. Running update-grub

Hello!
My terminal command's foreground is acting weird. I change its color, and whenever I close my terminal it goes back to white (the default color). Can someone help me?

Dear community,
I am sitting now in a beautiful public libary in Germany with beautiful and fast internet, the only problem: I cannot make updates or upgrades via apt-get or install anything. When I try to do so the bash gets stuck at:
Code: 0% [Connecting to archive.ubuntu.com (91.189.88.152)] [Connecting to repo.linux
First I thought it would be a problem of my computer dealing with Ipv4 so I tried out different things like
- creating the file /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99force-ipv4 and writing Acquire::ForceIPv4 false;
- uncommenting in /etc/gai.conf the line 54 (precedence ::ffff:0:0/96 100)
but none seemed to work. Silly enough, when I turn my mobile phone into a mobile hotspot and connect my pc, apt-get works normally. Thats why I think the public wifi is blocking somewhat apt-get and other services or data traffic...another hint is that evolution does not work neither.
I am no professional, however I have never heard about public hotspots blocking certain services, in particular apt-get... I don't know whether there is a solution but I wanted to ask here, maybe someone nows how to get apt-get and evolution running under such circumstances. 8) Working with LaTeX, R and some other programs often requires updating or installing of special packages, so it would be quite useful for me to be able to do so in many physical environments 
Thank you 
Tom

| How to open old windows (Vista) VHD files in linux |
|

On external backup storage I have some Windows Vista backup files (vhd format). I would like to look inside these and extract anything useful ( work files etc) before deleting the vhds ( circa 400GB worth!!) and regaining some welcome storage space. The VHDs are gathering cobwebs and are no longer needed once I have taken anything of use out. I do not have (or wish to) a Windows OS machine.
Any ideas appreciated.
Thanks
