How do I install Linux Lite without changing time in BIOS?

I tried opening an xlsx spreadsheet I created about a year ago.  I had difficulty getting it open, but finally did it by using the move command.  The cells and all controls except the minimize/maximize and the minimize to tray work.  Everything else is frozen and I cannot even close the sheet.  The sheet is done in LibreOffice Calc.  I am using LLOS 5.8 all updates applied since yesterday.  What can I do to get this functional again.  Thanks

[pre] Hello everyone,

Hopefully, I am posting this in the right place. I wish to develop PHP plugins for my WordPress website.
So far, I am having little to no luck. I successfully installed Xampp and the WordPress plugin.

My difficulty is in using a text editor to create files with:
Html
PHP
File extensions. What are your recommendations? The main reason I put this post here is I hope it becomes a
tutorial on how to develop PHP plugins on Linux Lite.

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
How do i do that??
Pierre

Clicked on Install updates and received the following info - I have no clue how to resolve this issue and would appreciate any help offered

Hi, Newbie here, fresh install of Lite 5.8, attempting to perform the initial update and I get this info. (Immediately afterwards it gave an indication that system was up to date?).


I'm not sure if I'm up to date or not.

Many thanks, Smithy  :026:

Hi Everyone  :wave

I'm a reasonably competent self-taught Windows user that's been interested in Linux for a while. I've tried various live distros on my wonderful Thinkpad, originally I tried Ubuntu (as the universally recommended one), but found it horribly slow. Have persisted and set myself the project to revitalize an old Dell business laptop with a lightweight distro. Tried MX, but it was so non-responsive. Then I tried AntiX as I still liked the whole Dolphin Oracle thing, but again it was too sluggish. So I decided I needed to try a much smaller Distro, and tried Porteus, Q4OS, and Lite.

I settled on Lite because, maybe because I come from Windows, I liked the easy availability of the firewall, and otherwise it's attractive enough and responsive enough for my needs. While I realize it's not that much smaller than the others, it is much more responsive on this machine.

My main usage is studying to online video tutorials. Have got minimal idea around using the command line, but have certainly learnt a lot through trying out the various live distros.

Hi,
I have got Linux 3.8 32 bit on my Vaio VGN UX1XN.
I decided to open the unit and clean the fan.
I put the machine back together after a week and fired up the OS at which point I noticed that I there was no internet connection even though the wifi is showing connected.
Upon checking the bios and the time was off so I corrected the time and restarted the machine still with with no internet (wifi still showing connected).
I then checked with a live distro and wifi and internet worked.
I have also checked with direct LAN connection. LAN gets connected but I cannot connect to internet.

So something appears to has gone wrong in the installed OS (perhaps related to the bios clock) and I would appreciate some diagnostic guidelines to fix the issue.

Thanks,
(I am not an experienced Linus user so please be gentle on me )

I have installed GreenWithEnvy.

I am unable to set coolbits8

I have tried.

sudo update-grub
sudo nvidia-xconfig -a --cool-bits=28 --allow-empty-initial-configuration

I have also tried editing xorg.conf

But it does not work.

Please advise.
