I have an amd64 with an athlon x2 processor . my understanding is that it has a 32 bit network card so when I install Linux lite 4 every thing works but the net dose not make a connection
when I install the 32 bit version 3.8 Linux lite every thing works and the net work connection as well
Is their any thing I can do to get Linux lite 4 to work with a 32 bit network card ?

Hi,
I'm writing a small desktop plugin app for LL and I have a question for LL 3.6 and 3.8 users.
(I guess there is no 3.7 version...)
If you are using either version, can you please run the terminal command:
Code: cat /etc/lsb-release

| A fix to a probably a bug? "Linux Lite cannot check for Updates" |

So recently I've noticed 'lite-updates' won't run and shout at me that there's no internet connection even though there actually is.
After digging in the internet I was led into that post from Nov' 17 where Jerry uploaded a script for updates-gui
I've noticed the script contains a connection check:
Code: # Check Internet access
if eval "curl -sk google.com" >> /dev/null 2>&1; then :; else # Prompt ERROR internet connection check failed and exit
yad --center --borders=15 --info --width="320" --height="120" --window-icon="$_ICON" --button=gtk-ok:1 --title="$_APPNAME" \
--text="\n<b>Your computer is not connected to the Internet.</b> \n \nLinux Lite cannot check for Updates.\nPlease check your internet connection and try again.\n" --text-align center 2>/dev/null
rm_temp_files; exit 0
fi
So I tried running the check myself. I did:
Only to found out that 'curl' has been removed from my system and the output of the command didn't evaluated to TRUE 
In my case the fix was just reinstall it:
Code: sudo apt-get install curl
This is the second time this is happened to me, sometimes 'curl' get removed when upgrading or installing software that don't need curl as a dependency and overrides it with different version of curl (libcurl3 something?)
I don't know if its a bug but maybe there's a better way to check for internet connection than 'curl'?

| How to get absolute value of integer? abs command does not work, man pages exist |

I'm trying to get the absolute value of an integer on my LL 4.0 machine. I'd like to use it in the command line. I looked up the man pages for the abs command, and it comes up there. But when I try to use the abs command, it says:
Command 'abs' not found, did you mean...
Then it lists some other things.
I'm puzzled why abs comes up in man pages but it won't work on command-line.
Anyway, the problem is, I can't find how to actually get the absolute value of an integer. Is there a different method I should use?

Hi;a question and suggestion:Most Linux versions I have tried so far had in the ISO version, I mean the first GRUB menu that is loaded, an entry to directly install to the disc drive.
I have that situation very often when I KNOW that I want to install LL on an older computer that I am refurbishing.Can that option be included in LL?TIA
